#### Part I

#### Item 1. IDENTITY OF DIRECTORS, SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND ADVISERS
Not Applicable.

#### Item 2. OFFER STATISTICS AND EXPECTED TIMETABLE
Not Applicable.

#### Item 3. KEY INFORMATION
We are a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and not a Chinese operating company. As a holding company with no material operations of our own, we conduct our operations through our subsidiaries in the UK and, prior to March 2025, through the former VIE in China. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, for accounting purposes, we controlled and received the economic benefits of the former VIE through certain contractual arrangements (the "VIE Agreements"), which enabled us to consolidate the financial results of the former VIE in our consolidated financial statements under U.S. GAAP. The VIE Agreements were terminated on March 1, 2025.

The following diagram illustrates our corporate structure as of the date of this annual report:

![Graphic](mdjh-20251231x20f001.jpg)

Notes:

\* All percentages reflect the voting power, instead of the equity interests, held by each of our shareholders, given that each holder of Class B Ordinary Shares will be entitled to 50 votes per one Class B Ordinary Share and each holder of Class A Ordinary Shares will be entitled to one vote per one Class A Ordinary Share.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Represents 11,658 Class B Ordinary Shares held by our CEO and chairman of the board of directors, Mr. Siping Xu, through MDJH LTD, which is 100% owned by Mr. Siping Xu.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Represents 158 Class A Ordinary Shares held by Mr. Siping Xu, our CEO and chairman of the board of directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Represents 158 Class A Ordinary Shares held by Mr. Mengnan Wang, our CFO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Represents 129 Class A Ordinary Shares held by 11 shareholders of MDJM, each one of which holds less than 5% of voting power, as of the date of this annual report.

Investors are purchasing securities of the holding company, MDJM, instead of securities of our operating entities. Our operations are conducted through MD UK and Mansions.

**Asset Transfers Between Our Company and Our Subsidiaries** 

As a holding company, we may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by the UK subsidiaries for our cash and financing requirements. If any of the UK subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to us. However, none of the UK subsidiaries have made any dividends or other distributions to the Company or any U.S. investors as of the date of this annual report. In the future, cash proceeds raised from overseas financing activities may be transferred by us to the UK subsidiaries via capital contribution or shareholder loans, as the case may be.

The transfers and distribution among the Company and its UK subsidiaries are as follows: In March 2026, net proceeds of $2.17 million from a registered direct offering were deposited directly into MD UK's bank account instead of MDJM's bank account. In February 2026, net proceeds of $5.44 million from a public offering were deposited directly into MD UK's bank account instead of MDJM's bank account. In February 2025, net proceeds of $324,000 from exercise of the September 2024 Series A Warrants (as defined below) were not deposited into MDJM's bank account. Instead, the proceeds were deposited directly into MD UK's bank account. In 2024, net proceeds of $2,426,460 from a private placement with several investors on September 18, 2024, and from the exercise of series A warrants (the "September 2024 Series A Warrants") associated with such private placement were not deposited into MDJM's bank account. Instead, the proceeds were deposited directly into MD UK's bank account.

On January 1, 2023, Mansions entered into a lease agreement with MD UK to rent "Fernie Castle," a property owned by MD UK, for use as a hotel site. The annual rent for the property is approximately $241,000 (182,500 pounds sterling, exclusive of VAT, payable monthly on the 25th. Mansions is responsible for all operating expenses, as well as maintenance and repairs of the leased property. The lease agreement does not specify a fixed termination date, but either party may terminate the agreement by providing one month's notice without incurring penalties. Upon termination, the property must be returned to MD UK.

On January 1, 2023, Mansions entered into a lease agreement with MD UK to rent "Robin Hill," a property owned by MD UK, for hotel operations. The annual rent is approximately $199,000 (151,000 pounds sterling, excluding VAT, and is payable monthly on the 25th. Mansions is responsible for operating expenses, maintenance, and repairs of the leased property. The lease does not have a fixed termination date; however, it can be ended by either party with one month's notice, without penalty. Upon termination, Mansions must return the property to MD UK.

As of the date of this annual report, there have been no other transfers or distributions made or dividends paid among the Company and its subsidiaries, except as described above.

**Dividends or Distribution Made to our Company and U.S. Investors and Tax Consequences**

As of the date of this annual report, none of our subsidiaries nor the Former PRC Entities 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. Subject to the passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") rules, the gross amount of distributions we make to investors with respect to our Ordinary Shares (including the amount of any taxes withheld therefrom) will be taxable as a dividend, 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.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Under Cayman Islands law, a Cayman Islands company may pay a dividend on its shares out of either profit or share premium account, provided that in no circumstances may a dividend be paid out of the share premium account 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 Ordinary Shares in the future, as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from our UK subsidiary, MD UK. MD UK will rely on payments from its subsidiary Mansions.

Prior to March 1, 2025, our Company's ability to settle amounts owed under the VIE Agreements relied upon payments made from the former VIE to Former WFOE in accordance with the VIE Agreements. For services rendered to the former VIE by Former WFOE under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement, former WFOE was entitled to collect a service fee from the former VIE. Pursuant to the Exclusive Option Agreement, former WFOE may at any time and under any circumstances purchase all or part of the equity interests in the former VIE when and to the extent permitted by PRC laws. The VIE Agreements were terminated on March 1, 2025.

D. Risk Factors

**Risks Relating to our Business and Industry**

#### We no longer conduct operations in the PRC, and the absence of such operations may adversely affect our future business operations and financial condition.
***Prior to 2023, we had operated our business through the Former PRC Entities, particularly through Mingda Tianjin, which primarily provided primary real estate agency services to its real estate developer clients, under the VIE Agreements. On March 1, 2025, we terminated the VIE Agreements and ceased all PRC operations. As a result, we no longer maintain revenue-generating operations in the PRC and may no longer benefit from the market presence, customer relationships, operational scale, or growth opportunities that we previously had in the PRC market, which may adversely affect our future business operations and financial condition.***

***Our new business strategy focused on the cultural IP ecosystem is complex and highly specialized. If we are unable to successfully execute this transformation, our future business operations, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.***

***We have announced a major strategic shift to transform our business into a global cultural IP ecosystem, a complex undertaking that integrates content creation, cultural tourism (centered on the Fernie Castle Animation Museum and Oriental Garden), international collaboration, and commercialization of intellectual property. This new strategy represents a significant change from our previous operations and introduces substantial execution and operational risks. Our ability to successfully manage and integrate the simultaneous development of a new cultural venue, the production of multiple international animation projects, and the creation of a sustainable global licensing business is currently unproven. There is no guarantee that we will be able to manage the associated construction timelines, production schedules, or development budgets efficiently, or that we will achieve the necessary regulatory and permitting approvals for these multi-jurisdictional projects.***

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***The success of the "cultural IP ecosystem" depends fundamentally on our ability to create and monetize original content rooted in Eastern culture that achieves significant commercial success and resonates with global audiences. Content creation and animation production, as demonstrated by our projects with Abano Producións S.L. and H5 S.A.R.L., are inherently speculative and involve significant creative and financial risk. We may fail to develop IP that captures market interest, which would materially impair our ability to realize projected revenue from IP ownership, licensing, cultural operations, and commercialization. Furthermore, we are entering new and highly competitive markets, and our management team has limited or no prior experience operating a major cultural tourism site or directing large-scale, international animation production, increasing the risk of operational failure and cost overruns.***

***Finally, the realization of our strategic goals is heavily reliant on the performance and continued participation of high-profile international partners, such as Kengo Kuma & Associates, Simpson & Brown LLP, Abano Producións S.L., and H5 S.A.R.L. If any of these key partnerships are prematurely terminated, significantly delayed, or fail to deliver the expected quality or results for any reason, or if we cannot secure suitable alternative partners on favorable terms, our ability to launch the Fernie Castle venue and our flagship content projects will be significantly compromised. If we are ultimately unable to effectively implement and manage this strategic transformation, or if the projected revenue from our new IP and cultural operations do not materialize as expected, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, leading to a decline in the value of our Class A Ordinary shares.***

#### We face intense competition in the creative industry, which could result in lost market share and reduced operating margins.
***We operate in a highly competitive and fragmented industry, and many of our competitors, including established global media companies and large technology platforms, may have significantly greater financial, technical, and marketing resources, longer operating histories, and greater name recognition than we do. Our ability to secure audience attention and effectively monetize our content, including our short-form video projects and Animation Art Museum, depends on unpredictable and rapidly changing consumer preferences. If our content fails to achieve widespread acceptance or if competitors are more successful in securing popular content and distribution channels, our business, financial condition, and results of operations would be materially adversely affected.***

***Our UK subsidiaries' operating results are subject to conditions typically affecting hospitality service providers in the UK, any of which could reduce our revenue and limit opportunities for growth.***

#### Our UK subsidiaries' operating results are subject to conditions typically affecting hospitality service providers in the UK, including, among others:
● changes in national, regional, or local economic conditions;

● contraction in the global economy or low levels of economic growth;

● competition from other hotels and vacation rental online marketplace companies;

● the attractiveness of hotels our UK subsidiaries may manage or own to their guests;

● local market conditions such as an oversupply of, or a reduction in demand for, hotel rooms;

● adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, or serious contagious diseases;

● the ability of third-party internet and other travel intermediaries who sell hotel rooms to guests to attract and retain customers;

● the availability and cost of capital necessary for us to fund investments, capital expenditures, and service debt obligations;

● delays in or cancellations of planned or future development or refurbishment projects;

● seasonal and cyclical volatility in the hospitality industry;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

● changes in desirability of geographic regions of the hotels within our UK subsidiaries' market, geographic concentration of their operations and customers, and shortages of desirable locations for development;

● the performance of managerial and other employees of our UK subsidiaries' hospitality services business; and

● increases in operating costs and expenses, particularly rents, due to inflation and other factors.

Changes in any of these conditions could adversely affect our UK subsidiaries' occupancy rates or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

***Our UK subsidiaries may not be able to successfully identify, secure, or operate additional hotel properties.***

In addition to managing the Robin Hill Property and Fernie Castle, we, through the UK subsidiaries, may open or manage more hotels in markets where we have a presence and in other areas in the UK to further grow our business. We and our UK subsidiaries may not be successful in identifying, leasing, managing, and operating additional hotel properties at desirable locations and on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. In more developed cities, it may be difficult to increase the number of hotels because we or our competitors may already have operations in such cities, rental prices may increase, or our competitors may be able to gain leases of properties before we can do so. In some cases, our competitors may be willing to enter into less favorable purchase, lease, or hotel management arrangements in order to prevent us from securing a particular property. Alternatively, in less developed cities, demand for new hotels may not increase as rapidly as we may expect. In addition, even if we or our UK subsidiaries are able to successfully identify and lease or manage new hotel properties, new hotels may not generate the returns we expect. Furthermore, we or our UK subsidiaries may incur costs in connection with evaluating properties and negotiating with property owners, lessors, and franchised hotel owners, including properties that we or our UK subsidiaries are subsequently unable to lease or manage. If we or our UK subsidiaries fail to successfully identify or compete for additional hotel properties, our ability to execute our growth strategy could be impaired and our business and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

***Our UK subsidiaries are subject to various hospitality industry, health and safety, construction, fire prevention, and environmental laws and regulations that may subject them to liability.***

We cannot assure you that our UK subsidiaries or their employees comply with or will comply with all present and future laws and regulations related to their business, including hospitality industry, health, safety, construction, fire prevention, and environmental laws and regulations. Such non-compliance may subject our UK subsidiaries to monetary damages, the imposition of fines or other administrative penalties or investigations against them, or the suspension of their operations, which in turn could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, new regulations could also require our UK subsidiaries to retrofit or modify any hospitality properties that they may own, operate, or manage, either currently or in the future, or incur other significant expenses. Any failure by our UK subsidiaries to control the use of, or to adequately restrict the discharge of, hazardous substances in their operations, or otherwise operate in compliance with environmental laws, could subject them to potentially significant monetary damages and fines or suspension of their business operations, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

***Accidents, injuries, or prohibited activities in the hotels that our UK subsidiaries operate or may operate or manage in the future may adversely affect their and our reputation and subject them or us to liability.***

There are inherent risks of accidents, injuries, or prohibited activities (such as illegal drug use, gambling, violence, or prostitution by guests) taking place in hospitality properties. The occurrence of one or more accidents, injuries, or prohibited activities at any hospitality property that our UK subsidiaries operate or may operate or manage in the future could adversely affect their safety reputation among guests, harm our brand, decrease our UK subsidiaries' overall occupancy rates, and increase our costs by requiring our UK subsidiaries to implement additional safety measures. In addition, if accidents, injuries, or prohibited activities occur at any of these properties, we or our UK subsidiaries may be held liable for costs or damages and fines. Our and our UK subsidiaries' current property and liability insurance policies may not provide adequate or any coverage for such losses, and we or our UK subsidiaries may be unable to renew our insurance policies or obtain new insurance policies without increases in premiums and deductibles or decreases in coverage levels, or at all.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***If our UK subsidiaries are unable to access funds to maintain the condition and appearance of the hospitality properties that they operate or may operate or manage in the future, the attractiveness of such properties and their and our reputation could suffer and occupancy rates may decline.***

In order to maintain the condition and attractiveness of our UK subsidiaries' hospitality properties that they operate or may operate or manage in the future, ongoing renovations and other leasehold improvements, including periodic replacement of furniture, fixtures, and equipment, are required. Such investments and expenditures require ongoing funding and, to the extent our UK subsidiaries cannot fund these expenditures from existing cash or cash flow generated from operations, our UK subsidiaries must borrow or raise capital through financing. Our UK subsidiaries may not be able to access capital. If our UK subsidiaries fail to make investments necessary to maintain or improve the properties, the attractiveness of our UK subsidiaries' hospitality property and their and our reputation could suffer, which could lead to our UK subsidiaries losing market share to competitors.

***Changes in international trade policies, trade disputes, barriers to trade, or the emergence of a trade war may dampen growth in the UK, where our UK subsidiaries conduct operations.***

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

The withdrawal of the UK from the EU ("Brexit") may have adverse effects on our business, results of operations, or strategic plans. The UK Government concluded a Trade Cooperation Agreement (TCA) with the EU, which became provisionally applicable on January 1, 2021 and went into force permanently on May 1, 2021, following formal approval by both the UK and the EU. Brexit has led to ongoing political and economic uncertainty and periods of increased volatility in both the UK and in wider European markets for some time. Brexit's long-term effects are still yet to be determined at this time and will depend on the effects of the implementation and application of the TCA and any other relevant agreements between the UK and EU. It remains possible that there will be increased regulatory and legal complexities, including those relating to tax, trade, and employees.

Our UK subsidiaries are exposed to risks of the changing policies in residential property management, real estate agencies, and hospitality and butler service businesses. The trade and financial sanctions imposed on Russia due to its invasion of Ukraine have caused turbulence in the global markets, which could also affect policies and economic conditions in the UK. Recent shifts in U.S. tariff policies, including increased tariffs on goods imported from China, the UK, and other regions, as well as the potential for additional protectionist measures, may impact the operations of our suppliers, manufacturers, and other business partners, which in turn, may affect our business and operations.

Our UK subsidiaries will be subject to the general risks associated with these uncertainties in the UK real estate market. Trade disputes and tariffs could increase the cost of key supplies to our operations, for goods such as food, beverages, furniture, and technology sourced from abroad. These increased costs may not be fully passed on to customers without affecting demand, potentially leading to reduced profit margins. Additionally, tariffs could disrupt supply chains and lead to delays in renovation or refurbishment projects, negatively impacting guest experiences and operational efficiency. In addition, political uncertainty surrounding international trade disputes and the potential of their escalation to a trade war and global recession could have a negative effect on customer confidence and consumer decisions, which could dampen the tourism and hospitality industries and materially and adversely affect our business. We also may have access to fewer business opportunities, and our operations may be negatively impacted as a result. The current and future actions or escalations by either the United States or China that affect trade relations may cause global economic turmoil and potentially have a negative impact on our markets, our business, or our results of operations, as well as the financial condition of our clients, and we cannot provide any assurances as of the date of this annual report as to whether such actions will occur or the form that they may take.

***Our UK subsidiaries face risks related to natural disasters, health epidemics, and other outbreaks, which could significantly disrupt their operations.***

Our UK subsidiaries' business could be materially and adversely affected by natural disasters, health epidemics, or other public safety concerns affecting the UK. Natural disasters may give rise to severe interruptions to real estate-related business and adversely affect the UK subsidiaries' ability to provide services to clients. In recent years, there have been outbreaks of epidemics in the UK and globally, such as COVID-19. The UK subsidiaries' business operations could be disrupted by such epidemics. In addition, the results of operations of the UK subsidiaries could be adversely affected to the extent that any health epidemic harms the UK economy in general. A prolonged outbreak of any of these illnesses or other adverse public health developments in the UK or elsewhere in the world could have a material adverse effect on the UK subsidiaries' business operations. Such outbreaks could significantly impact the real estate industry, which could severely disrupt the UK subsidiaries' operations and adversely affect their business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***If we or the UK subsidiaries fail to hire, train, and retain qualified managerial and other employees, our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.***

We place substantial reliance on the real estate industry experience and knowledge of our senior management team as well as their relationships with other industry participants. Mr. Siping Xu, our chairman and chief executive officer, is particularly important to our future success, due to his substantial experience and reputation in the real estate industry. Neither we nor the UK subsidiaries carry, and do not intend to procure, key person insurance on any of our senior management team. The loss of the services of one or more members of our senior management team due to their departure, or otherwise, could hinder our ability to effectively manage our business and implement our growth strategies. Finding suitable replacements for our current senior management could be difficult, and competition for such personnel of similar experience is intense. If we fail to retain our senior management, our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

The UK subsidiaries provide hospitality services, and their staff members interact with customers on a daily basis. As a result, the professionality of the staff is critical to maintaining the quality and consistency of our services and our brand and reputation. It is important for the UK subsidiaries to attract qualified managerial and other employees who have experience in real estate related services and are committed to their service approach. There may be a limited supply of qualified individuals in cities in the UK where the UK subsidiaries have operations. They must hire and train qualified managerial and other employees to maintain consistent quality of services across their operations in various geographic locations. They must also provide continuous training to their managerial and other employees so that they are equipped with up-to-date knowledge of various aspects of the UK subsidiaries' operations and can meet their demand for high-quality services. If the UK subsidiaries fail to do so, the quality of services may decrease in one or more of the markets where they operate, which in turn, may cause a negative perception of their brand and adversely affect their business.

#### As our Japanese subsidiary MD Japan commences operations in Japan, it may incur losses if economic conditions in Japan worsen.
Instability in the Japanese stock market and foreign currency exchange rates may have an adverse impact on our Japanese subsidiary MD Japan's asset and liability management as well as its results of operations. Although MD Japan has not commenced its operations and has not generated any revenue as of the date of this annual report and is still in the process of developing its business plan, any of the aforementioned factors could have a material and adverse impact on its development, potential results of operations, future business, and consequently adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

#### Our Japanese subsidiary MD Japan's business operations are exposed to risks of natural disasters, terrorism, and other disruptions caused by external events.
As with other Japanese companies, MD Japan will be exposed to heightened risks of large-scale natural disasters, particularly earthquakes. MD Japan's risk management policies and procedures may be insufficient to address the consequences of these external events, resulting in its inability to continue to operate a part or the whole of its business. In addition, its redundancy and backup measures may not be sufficient to avoid a material disruption in its operations, and its contingency and business continuity plans may not address all eventualities that may occur in the event of a material disruption caused by a large-scale natural disaster. Such external events may result in loss of facility and human and other resources, suspension or delay in all or part of MD Japan's operations, inability to implement business strategic measures or respond to changes in the market or regulatory environment as planned, and other disruptions to its operations. In addition, MD Japan may be required to incur significant costs and expenses, including those incurred for preventive or remedial measures, to deal with the consequences of such external events. As a result, MD Japan's future business, operating results, and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

***Potential political shocks and uncertainties in the European Union (the "EU"), including the development of Brexit, could have unpredictable consequences for the real estate market and the wider economy, and our German subsidiary's ability to protect itself against these risks is limited.***

Since the global financial crisis and subsequent European sovereign debt crisis between 2009 and 2012, political uncertainty in Europe has been elevated. Brexit in particular, but also, the increasing attractiveness to voters of populist political movements in other member states has raised concerns about a potential unwinding of aspects of European integration that could have implication to the German and UK real estate markets our subsidiaries operate in. While the European economic architecture and crisis response capabilities were strengthened substantially over the past decade, since 2020, the crisis caused by the COVID - 19 pandemic has led to a massive deterioration of the fiscal situation for many EU and Economic and Monetary Union countries again. To support the economic recovery and modernization, the EU has launched the unprecedented, multi-year Next Generation EU program, comprising grants and loans of more than €800 billion (at current prices) and committing the member states to pursue ambitious national structural reform and investment plans to receive the funds. This has improved the prospects for growth-enhancing structural reforms and further integration among EU member states, both viewed as important tools to reduce the Eurozone's vulnerabilities to future crises. However, given the political uncertainties, for instance, stemming from coming parliamentary and presidential elections in several countries, there remain downside risks to the future economic performance and political cohesion in Europe. More recently, the trade and financial sanctions imposed on Russia due to its invasion of Ukraine, have caused turbulence in the global markets, especially in the relevant European industries. Although our German subsidiary, MD German, has not commenced its operations and has not generated any revenue as of the date of this annual report, any of the aforementioned factors could materially and adversely affect its development and future business. If these risks materialize, they may ultimately result in material impediments in MD German's potential business development as its business will be under the impact of decreased economic output and increased uncertainty, which would materially adversely affect its operating results and financial condition. An escalation of political risks could have consequences for the financial system, public debt sustainability, the value of the euro and the greater economy as a whole, potentially leading to impediments in business levels, acquisition of assets and losses across MD German's businesses.

If, in an extreme tail risk scenario, one or more members of the Eurozone defaults on their debt obligations or decides to leave the common currency, this would result in the reintroduction of one or more national currencies. Should a Eurozone country conclude it must exit the common currency, the resulting need to reintroduce a national currency and restate existing contractual obligations could have unpredictable financial, legal, political, and social consequences, leading not only to significant losses on sovereign debt but also on private debt in that country. Our German subsidiary MD German's ability to plan for such a contingency in a manner that would reduce its exposure to non-material levels is likely to be limited. If the overall economic climate deteriorates as a result of Brexit or further departures from the Eurozone, MD German's future business could be adversely affected, and it could incur substantial losses.

**Risks Relating to Our Ordinary Shares and the Trading Market**

***Our Class A Ordinary Shares have been suspended from trading on Nasdaq and may be delisted, which has had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business and the trading and price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.***

On March 13, 2026, we received a staff determination letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq, notifying that our Class A Ordinary Shares would be suspended from trading on Nasdaq, effective with the open of trading on March 20, 2026, as a result of our Class A Ordinary Shares having a closing bid price of $0.10 or less for 10 consecutive business days.

On March 20, 2026, our Class A Ordinary Shares were suspended from trading on Nasdaq and commenced trading on the OTCID Basic Markets under the ticker symbol "UOKAF." On the same day, we submitted a hearing request to an independent Nasdaq Hearing Panel (the "Panel") to appeal the suspension determination. An oral hearing with the Panel has been scheduled for April 23, 2026. However, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant our request for continued listing or otherwise provide relief from the suspension determination, and the ultimate outcome of the hearing process remains uncertain.

The suspension and potential delisting of our Class A Ordinary Shares from Nasdaq and their trading on OTCID Basic Markets have had, and may continue to have, material adverse effects on our business and our shareholders, including the following:

● a limited availability for market quotations for our securities;

● reduced liquidity with respect to our securities;

● a determination that our Class A Ordinary Share is a "penny stock," which will require brokers trading in our Class A Ordinary Share 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 Share;

● limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

● a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

The Company is considering all options available to regain compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements and return to good standing on Nasdaq, including a reverse stock split that became effective on March 16, 2026. However, there can be no assurance that any such measures will be sufficient to satisfy Nasdaq's listing standards, that the Panel will grant continued listing, or that the Company will be able to relist its securities on Nasdaq or any other national securities exchange. If the Company's securities are ultimately delisted from Nasdaq and remain quoted on the OTC Markets, an active trading market for the Company's securities may never develop or, if developed, may not be sustained. As a result, investors may be unable to sell their securities unless an active market for such securities can be established and maintained.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***The trading price of the Class A 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, 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 the UK that have listed their securities in the United States. Furthermore, our Class A Ordinary Shares were suspended from trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on March 20, 2026, and are currently quoted on the OTC Markets under the ticker symbol "UOKAF." Trading on the OTC Markets is generally less liquid and subject to greater price volatility than trading on a national securities exchange such as Nasdaq, which may further exacerbate the risks described in this risk factor. In addition to market and industry factors, the price and trading volume for the Class A Ordinary Shares may be highly volatile for factors specific to our own operations, including the following:

● variations in our revenue, 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;

● 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.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

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.

***Because we are a Cayman Islands company and all of our business is conducted in the UK through our UK subsidiaries, you may be unable to bring an action against us or our officers and directors or to enforce any judgment you may obtain.***

We are incorporated in the Cayman Islands and conduct our operations in the UK through our UK subsidiaries. All of our assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, four out of our six directors and officers, namely Siping Xu, Mengnan Wang, Zhenlei Hu, and Wei Guan, reside in the PRC and Mr. Bo Wang resides in the UK; and another director, Liding Sun, resides in the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against us or against these five directors and officers in the United States in the event that you believe we have violated your rights, either under United States federal or state securities laws or otherwise, or if you have a claim against us. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands and of the UK may not permit you to enforce a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors and officers.

***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 they publish a negative report regarding our Class A Ordinary Shares, the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading volume could decline.***

The 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. In addition, the suspension of our Class A Ordinary Shares from trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market and their quotation on the OTC Markets may further reduce analyst coverage of our securities, as analysts and research firms are generally less likely to cover companies whose securities are not listed on a national securities exchange. Any reduction in analyst coverage may further impair the liquidity and market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***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. The corporate governance practice in our home country, the Cayman Islands, does not require a majority of our board to consist of independent directors. Currently, a majority of our board of directors are independent directors. In addition, the Nasdaq Listing Rules also require U.S. domestic issuers to have a compensation committee, a nominating/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.

Furthermore, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 provides that shareholder approval is required of U.S. domestic companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market prior to (i) issuances in connection with the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company if upon issuance the issued shares will equal to 20% or more of the number of shares or voting power outstanding prior to the issuance, or if certain specified persons have a 5% or greater interest in the assets or company to be acquired (Rule 5635(a)); (ii) issuances or potential issuances that will result in a change of control (Rule 5635(b)); (iii) issuances in connection with equity compensation arrangements (Rule 5635(c)); and (iv) 20% or greater issuances in transactions other than public offerings, as defined in the Nasdaq rules (Rule 5635(d)). 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. The Company, therefore, is not required to obtain such shareholder approval prior to entering into a transaction with the potential to issue securities as described above. The board of directors of the Company has elected to follow the Company's home country rules as to such issuances and will not be required to seek shareholder approval prior to entering into such a transaction. Therefore, our shareholders may be afforded less protection than they otherwise would have under corporate governance listing standards applicable to U.S. domestic issuers. For more information regarding our corporate governance, please see "Item 16.G. Corporate Governance."

Other than those described above, there are no significant differences between our corporate governance practices and those followed by U.S. domestic companies under Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance listing standards. However, in the future, we may consider following home country practice in lieu of the requirements under Nasdaq listing rules with respect to certain other corporate governance standards which may afford less protection to investors. Investors should note that if our Class A Ordinary Shares are ultimately delisted from Nasdaq, certain of the foregoing Nasdaq corporate governance protections will no longer be applicable to the Company.

***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.***

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 short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. On December 18, 2025, the Holding Foreign Insiders Accountable Act was enacted as part of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, mandating directors and officers of foreign private issuers to file Section 16(a) reports (Forms 3, 4, and 5) with the SEC to report beneficial ownership interests in companies, effective on March 18, 2026. As of the date of this annual report, the Company's directors and officers are subject to the Section 16(a) reporting requirements pursuant to the Holding Foreign Insiders Accountable Act. Five of six directors and officers have timely filed their initial statements of beneficial ownership on Form 3. The Form 3 for Mr. Wei Guan has not yet been filed pending the SEC's review of his EDGAR access credentials application. Mr. Wei Guan intends to file his Form 3 promptly upon the SEC's approval. Our principal shareholders who are not our officers or directors, however, will remain exempt from Section 16(a) reporting requirements. 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 expect to continue qualifying as a foreign private issuer, we may cease to qualify as a foreign private issuer in the future.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***If we fail to establish and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately and timely disclose information about our financial results or prevent fraud. Any inability to accurately and timely disclose financial results could harm our business and reputation and cause the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares to decline.***

A system of financial controls and procedures is necessary to ensure that information about our financial results is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported in an accurate and timely fashion. Effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. If we cannot disclose required information or provide reliable financial reports, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as we would if an effective control environment existed, and our business and reputation may be harmed. Even though our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025, we may have a material weakness identified in the future if the controls and procedures we have implemented become inadequate at such future time.

***Anti-takeover provisions in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may discourage, delay, or prevent a change in control.***

Some provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and 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 meetings and to propose special matters for consideration at shareholder meetings.

***The sale of our Ordinary Shares could encourage short sales by third parties, which could contribute to the future decline of our shares price.***

On September 18, 2024, we completed a private placement with several investors, wherein a total of 3,112 units were issued at an offering price of $787.50 per unit, for a total purchase price of approximately $2.45 million. The number of shares issued and price per share for these shares are retroactively adjusted to reflect the March 2026 Reverse Share Split. Each unit includes one ordinary share, one September 2024 Series A Warrant to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $1,181.25 per share, and one series B warrant (the "September 2024 Series B Warrants") to purchase such number of ordinary shares as determined on the Reset Date (as defined therein). As of the date of this annual report, we have issued an aggregate of 15,795 ordinary shares (currently traded as Class A Ordinary Shares) in connection with the private placement.

On February 11, 2026, we closed an underwritten follow-on offering of 122,286 units, with each unit consisting of (i) one Class A Ordinary Share and (ii) one Series A warrant to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share (collectively, the "February 2026 Series A Warrants") at a public offering price of $49.00 per unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $6 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses payable by us. The February 2026 Series A Warrants have a one-year term, immediately exercisable after issuance, and have an initial exercise price of $49.00 per Class A Ordinary Share, which is subject to reset on the Reset Date (as defined therein). The February 2026 Series A Warrants also provide for a zero exercise price option, in which the holder will receive 1.5 Class A Ordinary Shares that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the February 2026 Series A Warrants, without payment of additional consideration. As of the date of this annual report, we have issued an aggregate of 509,122 Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with this follow-on offering.

On March 2, 2026, we completed a registered direct offering pursuant to our registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-261347), as amended, which was initially filed with the SEC on November 24, 2021 and declared effective on March 6, 2023, and a related prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on March 2, 2026. In this offering, we issued and sold 24,600,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to certain institutional investors at a purchase price of $0.1015 per share.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

In many circumstances, large issuances of equity for companies have the potential to cause a significant downward pressure on the price of ordinary shares. This is especially the case if the shares being placed into the market exceed the market's ability to take up the increased share issuance. Such an event could place further downward pressure on the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares. Regardless of our activities, the opportunity exists for short sellers and others to contribute to the future decline of our share price. If there are significant short sales of our Class A Ordinary Shares, the price decline that would result from our acquisition activities will cause the share price to decline more, which may cause other holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares to sell their shares, thereby contributing to sales of Class A Ordinary Shares in the market. We may execute similar transactions in the future, and if there are many more of our Class A Ordinary Shares on the market for sale than the market will absorb, the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares will likely further decline, which could further impair our ability to regain compliance with the minimum closing bid price required for continued listing on Nasdaq set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), or result in a repeated inability to meet such requirement, and could further adversely affect the trading price and liquidity of our Class A Ordinary Shares on the OTC Markets during the pendency of our appeal of the Nasdaq suspension determination.

***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 Shares which is not fully paid up or on which we have a lien. Our directors may also decline to register any transfer of any 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 conceded are free of any lien in favor of us; or (vi) a fee of such maximum sum as 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 one month 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 held by our public shareholders. As of the date of this annual report, our Class A Ordinary Shares are quoted on the OTC Markets following the suspension of trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market effective March 20, 2026. 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 remain with the Depository Trust Company. All market transactions with respect to those Class A Ordinary Shares are carried out without the need for any kind of registration by the directors, as the market transactions are all conducted through the Depository Trust Company systems.

***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.***

Our corporate affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, by the Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands (the "Companies Act") and by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against our directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities 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 in the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands and from English common law. Decisions of the Privy Council (which is the final Court of Appeal for British Overseas Territories such as the Cayman Islands) are binding on a court in the Cayman Islands. Decisions of the English courts, and particularly the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal are generally of persuasive authority but are not binding in the courts of the Cayman Islands. Decisions of courts in other Commonwealth jurisdictions are similarly of persuasive but not binding authority. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedents in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a less developed body of securities laws relative to the United States. Therefore, our public shareholders may have more difficulty protecting their interests in the face of actions by our management, directors or controlling shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***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. However, these rights may be provided in a company's amended and restated articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association allow our shareholders holding shares representing in aggregate not less than 10% of our voting share capital in issue, to requisition a general meeting of our shareholders, in which case our directors are obliged to call such meeting. Advance notice of at least 21 clear days is required for the convening of our annual general shareholders' meeting and at least 14 clear-day notice any other general meeting of our shareholders. A quorum required for a meeting of shareholders consists of at least one shareholder present or by proxy, representing not less than one-third in nominal value of our total issued voting shares.

***If we are classified as a PFIC, United States taxpayers who own our Ordinary Shares may have adverse United States federal income tax consequences.***

A non-U.S. corporation such as ourselves will be classified 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 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.

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. It is possible that, however, for our 2026 taxable year or for any subsequent year, more than 50% of our assets may be assets which produce passive income. We will make this determination following the end of any particular tax year.

**Risks Relating to Our Capital Structure**

***Our dual class share structure with different voting rights may adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Class A Ordinary Shares.***

We cannot predict whether our dual class share structure with different voting rights will result in a lower or more volatile market price of the Class A Ordinary Shares, in adverse publicity, or other adverse consequences. Certain index providers have announced restrictions on including companies with multiple class share structures in certain of their indices. Because of our dual class structure, we will likely be excluded from these indices and other stock indices that take similar actions. Given the sustained flow of investment funds into passive strategies that seek to track certain indices, exclusion from certain stock indices would likely preclude investment by many of these funds and could make the Class A Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors. In addition, several shareholder advisory firms have announced their opposition to the use of a multiple class structure and our dual class structure may cause shareholder advisory firms to publish negative commentary about our corporate governance, in which case, the market price and liquidity of the Class A Ordinary Shares could be adversely affected.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***Our dual class share structure with different voting rights will limit your ability to influence corporate matters and could discourage others from pursuing any change of control transactions that holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares may view as beneficial.***

We have adopted a dual class share structure such that our Ordinary Shares consist of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. In respect of matters requiring the votes of shareholders, each Class A Ordinary Share is entitled to one vote and each Class B Ordinary Share is entitled to 50 votes. Each Class B Ordinary Share is convertible into one Class A Ordinary share at any time by the holder thereof. Our Class A Ordinary Shares are not convertible into our Class B Ordinary Shares under any circumstances. Only our Class A Ordinary Shares are listed on Nasdaq, though trading in our Class A Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq has been suspended effective March 20, 2026, and our Class A Ordinary Shares are currently quoted on the OTC Markets. This voting structure may discourage investors from pursuing any change of control transactions that holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares may view as beneficial.

As of the date of this annual report, the Company has an aggregate of 1,230,890 Class A Ordinary Shares and 11,658 Class B Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding, with the holders of Class B Ordinary Shares representing approximately 32.14% of the total voting power. To maintain control over matters requiring approval by ordinary resolutions of shareholders, which require the affirmative vote of not less than 50% of the votes cast, the holders of Class B Ordinary Shares would need to retain at least 906,895 votes, equivalent to 18,138 Class B Ordinary Shares, which represent approximately 1.46% of the total outstanding Ordinary Shares and are more than the Class B Ordinary Shares outstanding. To maintain control over matters requiring approval by special resolutions of shareholders, which require the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast, the holders of Class B Ordinary Shares would need to retain at least 1,209,194 votes, equivalent to 24,184 Class B Ordinary Shares, which represent approximately 1.95% of the total outstanding Ordinary Shares and are more than the Class B Ordinary Shares outstanding.

***Future issuances of Class B Ordinary Shares may be dilutive to holders of Class A Ordinary Shares.***

We may issue additional Class B Ordinary Shares in the future in connection with future financings, strategic transactions, equity incentive plans, or otherwise. Any such issuance could result in dilution to existing holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

In addition, since Class B Ordinary Shares carry greater voting rights than Class A Ordinary Shares, any future issuances of Class B Ordinary Shares could have the effect of further concentrating voting power in certain shareholders. This may reduce the influence of Class A Ordinary Shareholders over matters requiring shareholder approval.

There can be no assurance as to when or if we will issue additional Class B Ordinary Shares, or the terms of any such issuance. However, any such future issuances could materially and adversely affect the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and dilute the interests of existing Class A Ordinary Shareholders.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***Nasdaq Suspension and OTC Markets Quotation***

On March 13, 2026, we received a staff determination letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq notifying us that our Class A Ordinary Shares would be suspended from trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market effective with the open of trading on March 20, 2026, as a result of our Class A Ordinary Shares having a closing bid price of $0.10 or less for 10 consecutive business days. On March 20, 2026, our Class A Ordinary Shares were suspended from trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market and commenced trading on the OTC Markets under the ticker symbol "UOKAF." On the same date, we submitted a hearing request to the Panel to appeal the suspension determination. An oral hearing with the Panel has been scheduled for April 23, 2026. However, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant our request for continued listing or otherwise provide relief from the suspension determination, and the ultimate outcome of the hearing process remains uncertain. For a more detailed discussion of the risks associated with the Nasdaq suspension and the potential delisting of our Class A Ordinary Shares, see "Item 3.D—Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Ordinary Shares and the Trading Market—Our Class A Ordinary Shares have been suspended from trading on Nasdaq and may be delisted, which has had and may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business and the trading and price of our Class A Ordinary Shares."

***Proposed Share Capital Increase and Share Consolidation***

On March 26, 2026, the Company's board of director approved a resolution to convene an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, which is scheduled for April 21, 2026. On March 31, 2026, the Company furnished a notice and proxy statement in connection with the extraordinary general meeting on Form 6-K with the SEC. At the extraordinary general meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider and vote on two proposals:

Proposal No. 1—Increase of Authorized Share Capital: The board of director proposed to increase the Company's authorized share capital from US$250,000,000, divided into 285,714,286 ordinary shares of par value US$0.875 each (consisting of 285,702,629 Class A Ordinary Shares and 11,657 Class B Ordinary Shares), to US$4,462,500,000, divided into 5,100,000,000 ordinary shares of par value US$0.875 each (consisting of 5,000,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and 100,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares), by the creation of 4,714,297,371 authorized and unissued Class A Ordinary Shares and 99,988,343 authorized and unissued Class B Ordinary Shares.

Proposal No. 2—Share Consolidation Mandate: The board of director proposed to obtain a mandate from shareholders to effect a consolidation of the Company's authorized and issued share capital at a consolidation ratio of not less than 2:1 and not more than 200:1, at such ratio and effective time as the board of directors may determine in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. Business Overview

#### Overview
We operate our business through MD UK and Mansions. While we conducted business in the PRC prior to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 through our Former PRC entities, including Mingda Tianjin, which was a VIE in the PRC, we have no business operations in the PRC as of the date of this annual report.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Mansions engages in the asset management business and expects to provide comprehensive UK real estate-related services, including property leasing, property sales, furnishings, routine property maintenance and management, and hospitality and butler services to overseas real estate owners. Mansions implements customized management plans holistically tailored to the needs of its real estate owner clients. It facilitates a variety of ancillary services, including its real estate marketing and planning services, real estate agency services, advertisement planning services, 24-7 multilingual customer service meeting the demand of an international market, and professional onsite butler team. We believe that the establishment of Mansions is a significant step for our global expansion strategy. Mansions commenced operations in 2021 and generated $89,664 (GBP67,965), $48,375 (GBP37,849), and $102,909 (GBP82,729), of revenue during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

MD UK commenced its operations in 2021. MD UK focuses on developing and launching real estate development projects and hospitality programs, including hotel operations. See "—Our Services—The UK Operations."

Prior to 2023, we also operated our business through the Former PRC Entities, particularly through Mingda Tianjin, which primarily provided primary real estate agency services to its real estate developer clients. Mingda Tianjin's main market was in the Tianjin Autonomous Municipality, one of the richest cities in the PRC, ranking fifth in the PRC based upon GDP per capita in 2022, according to the China Statistical Yearbook. Since 2014, Mingda Tianjin had expanded its market presence to other first and second tier cities in China, including Chengdu of Sichuan province.

The Former PRC Entities' primary real estate agency services offerings included providing primary agency sales services to residential real estate developers at any stage of the development and sale of a residential real estate project. The Former PRC Entities typically served large and mid-sized real estate developers or promising emerging local developers in the markets in which they operated. The Former PRC entities primarily generated revenue through sales commissions which were either fixed or progressive. They generated 0%, 0%, and 29.0% of their total revenue through their primary agency sales services in fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

The Former PRC entities commenced their operations in 2002. Their revenue was $nil, $nil, and $41,954 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Their net (loss) was $(30,575), $(631,355), and $(662,821) for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

On March 3, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors approved the termination of the VIE Agreements with Mingda Tianjin. Subsequently, on March 1, 2025, Mingda Beijing entered into termination agreements with Mingda Tianjin and its shareholders, effectively terminating all VIE Agreements. As a result, Mingda Beijing ceased providing business support and consulting services to Mingda Tianjin and was no longer considered its beneficial owner. On March 5, 2025, the local authorities in Beijing issued a Notice of Deregistration of Equity Pledge to each shareholder of Mingda Tianjin, formally completing the deregistration process and officially ending the contractual arrangements between Mingda Beijing and Mingda Tianjin.

**Strategic Shift to Cultural IP Ecosystem**

We are undergoing a significant strategic transformation to shift our core operations toward the development and monetization of a global cultural IP ecosystem. This new strategy integrates content creation, cultural tourism, international collaboration, and cultural asset management to crease a seamless chain from IP development to commercial value. Our goal is to build a globally influential cultural and artistic ecosystem that brings Eastern philosophy and aesthetics to the world through contemporary storytelling and immersive experience.

Our future strategy is built upon the following four core directions:

● Cultural IP Ownership & Original IP Development—this involves creating original IP rooted in Eastern culture, aesthetics, and philosophy, and building cross-cultural storytelling content with global appeal;

● International Cultural IP Licensing & Collaboration—we will introduce and collaborate with internationally recognized cultural IPs, expanding cross-border creative and cultural partnerships to achieve mutual enrichment of cultural resources and artistic expression;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

● Cultural Experience Operations at Fernie Castle—we utilize Fernie Castle and its adjacent Oriental Garden in Scotland as the core operational platform to establish an immersive Animation Art Museum, inspired by the aesthetic and experiential philosophy of Japan's Ghibli Museum. This physical cultural zone will generate sustainable cultural revenue through animation and art exhibitions, themed cultural dining, boutique accommodation, oriental garden experiences, cultural festivals, and immersive programming; and

● Cultural IP Commercialization—we will focus on producing animated shorts and feature films, securing international distribution, and streaming partnerships, generating box office and exhibition revenue, developing merchandise and derivative products, and licensing globally and expanding brand cooperation.

To accelerate our strategy, we have executed the following key agreements with world-class international partners:

*Journey to the West Animated Short Film*

On August 1, 2025, we signed a Scrip Contract with leading European creators, Isabel Herguera and Gianmarco Serra, to develop the script and related materials for an original animated short film inspired by the classic Chinese myth, and the original screenplay for the short film has been completed. Subsequently, on November 10, 2025, we signed an Animation Production Agreement with Abano Producións S.L., a leading animation studio in Galicia, Spain, to launch the production of the short film. Abano Producións S.L. is recognized internationally for auteur animation, with works selected and awarded by major festivals including Annecy, San Sebastián, and Zagreb. The expected release date for this short film is July 2026.

*An Eastern-Themed Animated Short Film*

On November 20, 2025, MD UK entered into a Development and Co-Production Deal Memo with H5 S.A.R.L., one of France's most influential, Academy Award-winning animation and creative studios, for a new philosophical animated short film inspired by Eastern thought. The creative team for this project includes Ludovic Houplain (Co-founder of H5 S.A.R.L., Academy Award-winning Director of *Logorama*), Federico Matarazzo (Artistic Producer), Stéphane Levallois (concept artist), and Vincent Dupuis (VFX visionary and Co-Founder of Machine Molle). This collaboration extends beyond a single film to actively explore multi-layered cultural partnerships, including co-curated exhibitions at the Fernie Castle Animation Museum, blending French visual culture with Eastern philosophical aesthetics, cross-media cultural experiences combining animation, sound, interactive design and spatial storytelling, and joint development of future animation IP.

*Fernie Castle Venue Development*

On July 15, 2025, we signed an Architectural Design Service Agreement with Kengo Kuma & Associates, Inc. (KKAA), a global architectural firm based in Tokyo, Japan, and on December 19, 2025, we signed a Memorandum of Agreement and Conditions of Appointment with Simpson & Brown LLP, one of Scotland's most established and respected heritage architecture practices, for the Fernie Castle Oriental Landscape Project. This project is focused on designing Fernie Castle and its adjacent Oriental Garden to create a new international cultural ecosystem that will host cross-cultural animation and art exhibitions, international artist residencies, and themed boutique accommodation. The estimated capital investment for this project is $10 million, with an expected completion in May 2027.

As of the date of this annual report, we do not hold any IP and has not generate any revenue from our global cultural IP ecosystem business.

#### Competitive Strengths
We believe that the following strengths differentiate the UK subsidiaries from their competitors:

● *Unique Cultural Brand Creation.* The Company is committed to becoming an innovative enterprise that focuses on cultural exchange between the East and the West, as well as the integration of culture and business. The Company aims to strengthen its position in the cultural industry by focusing on product development, consumer experience creation, and cultural brand creation. In addition, the Company is committed to preserving traditional heritage and integrating culture into its products, creating consumer experiences that align with the market trend of emphasizing a high-quality lifestyle.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

● *Integration of British Castles and Eastern Gardens in Real-Life Scenarios.* The Company leverages its ownership of the Fernie Castle project to create a garden landscape with strong Eastern cultural elements within the castle, aiming to present historical aesthetics and heritage through physical assets. By exploring the cultural significance behind both British castles and Eastern gardens, the Company integrates such cultural heritage into product design and brand communication. We believe that this cross-cultural innovation not only brings consumers a brand-new cultural experience but also further enhances the Company's influence in the cultural sector.

#### Growth Strategies
We intend to develop our business by implementing the following strategies:

● *Eastern-Themed Animation IP Development.* The Company is committed to building a distinctive Eastern-themed animation intellectual property platform that promotes cultural exchange between the East and the West through high-quality original content and international co-production. By reinterpreting classical Eastern myths and philosophical concepts through contemporary auteur animation, the Company aims to strengthen its position in the cultural and creative industries while expanding its presence in European and North American markets. In furtherance of this strategy, the Company is developing two animated short films, including an animated short film inspired by the classic Chinese myth Journey to the West, which has completed script development and is currently in production pursuant to an animation production agreement with Abano Producións S.L., a Spanish animation studio recognized by major international festivals, with an expected release in July 2026, and a philosophical Eastern-themed animated short film under development through a co-production arrangement with H5 S.A.R.L., an Academy Award-winning French creative studio.

● *Fernie Castle Cultural Venue Development.* The Company is pursuing the development of Fernie Castle as a cultural venue integrating animation, art, and heritage architecture to support long-term IP expansion and cultural commercialization. In furtherance of this strategy, the Company has engaged Kengo Kuma & Associates, Inc. and Simpson & Brown LLP to design the Fernie Castle Oriental Landscape Project, which is intended to transform the castle and its adjacent Oriental Garden into an international cultural ecosystem hosting cross-cultural animation and art exhibitions, artist residencies, themed boutique accommodations, and related cultural experiences. The project is expected to require approximately $10 million in capital investment and is targeted for completion in May 2027.

#### Our Services

#### The UK operations
The UK subsidiaries, MD UK and Mansions, commenced operations in August 2021.

Mansions engages in the asset management business and expects to provide comprehensive UK real estate-related services, including property leasing, property sales, furnishings, routine property maintenance and management, and hospitality and butler services to overseas real estate owners.

#### Prior PRC operations
The Former PRC Entities generated their revenue primarily through providing primary real estate agency services to their real estate developer clients. Primary real estate agency services refer to agency services provided for the primary real estate market, newly constructed and completed residential and commercial real properties. The Former PRC Entities' primary real estate agency services were for residential and business projects. In addition to the traditional agency services provided for the primary real estate market, the Former PRC Entities provided integrated agency services that incorporate any stage(s) in the residential real estate project value chain, which ranged from planning and design to marketing and sales, and delivery and after-sale services, where they served both their real estate developer clients, the prospective property buyers, and the property buyers.

The Former PRC Entities' principal business was providing primary real estate agency services. The Former PRC Entities derived substantially all of their primary real estate agency service revenue from gross commission income received serving as a broker or sales agent at the closing of real estate transactions. The Former PRC Entities provided primary real estate agency services to real estate developers of mainly residential properties. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Former PRC Entities' average residential property broker commission rate was 0.47%, which represented the average/standard commission rate earned by primary sales agents in a home sale transaction. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Former PRC Entities did not provide primary real estate agency services.

Through Mingda Tianjin and its two branch offices in Chengdu (the "Chengdu Branch Office") (deconsolidated in 2024) and in Suzhou (deconsolidated in 2022), the Former PRC Entities owned and operated a primary real estate agency service business in the following local markets, Tianjin, Chengdu, and Suzhou, which represented 100%, 0%, and 0% of their agency revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023, respectively. The Chengdu Branch Office commenced generating revenue in 2019. The Former PRC Entities did not generate any agency revenue for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. As of December 31, 2025, Mingda Tianjin had no employees.

For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Former PRC Entities completed the sale of 0 units, 0 units, and 6 units, respectively.

***Major Customers***

Mansions' customers are primarily overseas investors and real estate owners in the UK, including high net worth individuals and some individuals with particular needs, such as parents of children who study or work abroad. In December 2022, Mansions expanded its business into hotel operations, and its primary customers have since then further included customers of its hotels.

The Former PRC Entities' customers were primarily real estate developers. They also served real estate design institutes and agencies, urban planning bureaus of various levels of governments, urban rail transportation companies, and urban infrastructure development companies. The Former PRC Entities relied on their developer customers for revenue generated from their services primarily as primary real estate sales provider.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Former PRC Entities did not generate any revenue.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Former PRC Entities' top customer represented approximately 28% of their total revenue. The accounts receivable from this customer (project) were $0 as of December 31, 2023.

***Marketing and Brand Promotion***

*The UK Market*

The main marketing promotion methods of Mansions are currently divided into online and offline channels. Offline marketing efforts happen mainly in the form of in-person visits and exhibitions. Mansions' introduction and business-related information are made into a complete set of publicity materials, which are delivered and distributed in-person by business personnel and customers. Mansions uses its official website and WeChat official account for online marketing efforts and has created electronic brochures for promotion purposes. These electronic brochures are also distributed via WeChat or e-mail during business negotiations with customers. Mansions also launched promotional campaigns on the websites of its hotels, social media platforms, such as X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and Facebook, and search engines, such as Google, TripAdvisor, Booking.com, and Airbnb.

*The PRC Market*

The Former PRC Entities employed a variety of marketing and brand promotion methods to enhance their brand recognition and attract property buyers, including advertisements, following up with prospective buyers who had visited the sales offices of projects for which they acted as primary sales agent, establishing a brand center to maintain and position their brand image, and third-party referrals.

#### Competition
*The UK Market*

Mansions competes both with the five major global real estate companies with accumulated experiences and qualifications, such as Jones Lang LaSalle and Savills, and with agents with longer operation history and lower fees, such as Crown Home Buying & Letting and Hanland Global. The UK real estate market is competitive as the number of market participants is relatively limited. Mansions intends to improve its competitive position by providing customized services and humanized experiences at a competitive fee rate.

UK subsidiaries' principal competitors in hotel operations are traditional hotel and resort operators, internet-based alternative lodging sites operators, and package holidays and tour operators. UK subsidiaries face intense competition for individual guests and group reservations from major hospitality chains with well-established and recognized brands, as well as from other smaller hotel chains, independent and local hotel owners and operators, and alternative lodging sites. UK subsidiaries compete for customers primarily based on location, room rates, quality of the accommodations, customer satisfaction, and amenities. Our competitors may have similar or greater commercial and financial resources which allow them to improve their properties in ways that affect our ability to compete for guests effectively and adversely affect our revenue and profitability and limit or slow our future growth.

***Employees***

See "Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—D. Employees."

***Seasonality***

Our UK operations are affected by seasonality common in the hotel industry, with summer being the peak season for customer travel and winter being the off-season. To address such seasonal challenge, we seek to promote the unique cultural value of our assets as an attraction and combines both online and offline business development strategies to minimize the impact of seasonality on business operations.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***Legal Proceedings***

From time to time, we may become a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, including actions with respect to intellectual property infringement, violation of third-party licenses or other rights, breach of contract, and labor and employment claims. We are currently not a party to, and we are not aware of any threat of, any legal or administrative proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have any material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flow, or results of operations.

---

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $1,260,002, representing a decrease of $1,578,288, or 56%, compared to $2,838,290 in 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to the absence of stock-based compensation expenses in 2025, whereas stock-based compensation of $1,493,418 was recognized in 2024.

Payroll, payroll taxes, and other related expenses were $232,804 for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing a decrease of $1,559,276, or 87%, compared to $1,792,080 in 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to the absence of stock-based compensation expenses in 2025. In 2024, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1,493,418. On May 31, 2024, the Company issued 1,344 ordinary shares to 13 employees and officers as part of their 2024 compensation package. The shares were valued at $1,111.25 per share, based on the closing market price of the Company's ordinary shares on Nasdaq on May 31, 2024. As a result, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expenses of $1,493,418, which were included in payroll, payroll taxes, and other related expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Professional fees consist primarily of legal, U.S. GAAP audit, consulting, investor relations, and other U.S. SEC filing-related fees. Professional fees were $757,463 for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing an increase of $303,617, or 67%, compared to $453,846 in 2024. The increase in professional fees was primarily attributable to our increased financing activities and compliance costs associated with U.S. SEC filing requirements.

Depreciation and amortization expenses totaled $78,458 for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing an increase of $2,957, or 4%, compared to $75,501 in 2024. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, all of the Company's net fixed assets were located in the United Kingdom, and no fixed assets remained in China. Currently, the Company has no plans to acquire new assets in China.

There was no accounts receivable balance or allowance for credit losses under CECL as of December 31, 2025. In 2024, the Company recorded an allowance for credit losses on trade receivables of $134,960, which primarily related to real estate agent service income earned in prior years. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had accounts receivable of $134,960 (RMB971,135), mainly due from one customer. Due to the downturn in China's real estate market, management determined that recovery was unlikely and applied a 100% CECL allowance to receivables outstanding for more than one year as of December 31, 2024.

Other general and administrative expenses totaled $191,277 for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing a decrease of $190,626, or 50%, compared to $381,903 in 2024. The decrease in other general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to (i) the absence of approximately $30,000 in expenses related to the Company's China operations following the deconsolidation of the former VIE in 2025, and (ii) a decrease of approximately $173,000 in office expenses, partially offset by increases in other administrative expenses in 2025. These changes reflect the Company's cost-control efforts during 2025.

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $48,375, representing a decrease of $96,488, or 67%, from $144,863 in 2023. The decline was primarily due to two factors: the absence of real estate agent income in 2024, compared to $41,954 in 2023, and because Fernie Castle remained in the design and parliamentary approval phase during 2024, resulting in reduced hotel revenue.

The operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $2,838,290, reflecting an increase of $1,369,270, or 93%, compared to $1,469,020 in 2023. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by stock-based compensation expenses totaling $1,493,418.

Selling expenses were $nil in 2024, a decrease of $63, or 100%, from $63 in 2023. This decline was due to the absence of sales activities in the PRC market since 2023, resulting from the downturn in the Chinese real estate market, as a result of which the Company has successively shut down all domestic businesses, dissolved all project service teams, and ceased to engage in business activities in the PRC market.

Payroll, payroll taxes, and others were $1,792,080 in 2024, an increase of $1,219,840, or 213%, compared to $572,240 in 2023. The increase in payroll, payroll taxes and others was primarily attributed to stock-based compensation of $1,493,418. On May 31, 2024, the Company issued 1,344 Ordinary Shares to 13 employees and officers as part of their 2024 compensation package. The Ordinary Shares were valued at $1,111.25 each, based on the closing market price of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq on May 31, 2024. As a result, $1,493,418 was recognized as payroll, payroll taxes and others for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Professional fees consist of legal, US GAAP audit, consulting, investors relationship and other U.S. SEC filing related fees. Professional fees were $453,846 in 2024, a decrease of $71,779, or 14%, compared to $525,625 in 2023.

Total other expenses were $399,290 in 2024, compared to net other income of $174,546 in 2023, reflecting a change of $573,836. The increase in other expenses was primarily due to a $493,274 loss on the valuation of warrants. The Company accounts for its outstanding warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet. These warrants are measured at fair value upon issuance and are subsequently remeasured at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations. As of December 31, 2024, the fair value of the warrant liabilities was $1,424,932, which is presented as a current liability on the balance sheet.

Our net loss was $3,189,205 in 2024, an increase of $2,028,759, or 175%, compared to a net loss of $1,160,446 in 2023. The increase in our net loss in 2024 mainly resulted from a $96,488, or 67%, decline in revenue, a $1,369,270, or 93%, increase in operating expenses, and a $573,836, or 329%, increase in other expenses, as discussed above.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted rates expected to apply to taxable income in which temporary differences are expected to be reversed or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income in the period of the enactment of the change.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Deferred tax assets were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | December 31,  | December 31,  |
| Deferred Tax Assets: | 2025 | 2024 |

**Uncertain tax position**

The management evaluates each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measures the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Group did not have any unrecognized uncertain tax positions. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not incur any interest and penalties related to potential underpaid income tax expenses.

**Impact of Inflation**

In recent years, inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the consumer price index in China increased by 0.8%, 0.2%, and 0.2%, in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. According to the Office for National Statistics, the consumer price index in the UK increased by 3.6%, 3.3%, and 6.8%, in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Although we have not been materially affected by inflation since our inception, we can provide no assurance that we will not be affected in the future by higher rates of inflation in China or in the UK. If inflation rises, it may materially and adversely affect the PRC operating entities or the UK subsidiaries and our business.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Impact of Foreign Currency Fluctuations**

The subsidiaries in the UK maintain their books and records in GBP, while the former subsidiaries in China and the former VIE maintained their books and records in RMB. Our reporting currency is USD. For consolidation purposes, we generally translate assets and liabilities into USD at exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date, and income statement items at average exchange rates for the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation of their financial statements are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The foreign currency translation could materially affect our financial condition and results of operations due to the fluctuation of exchange rate. The exchange rates in effect are shown below:

|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | December 31,  | December 31,  | December 31,  | December 31,  | December 31,  |
| US Dollar Exchange Rate | 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | 2022 | 2021 |

We did not have any foreign currency investments hedged by currency borrowings or other hedging instruments for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of cash were revenue from the PRC operating entities' agency sales and revenue from hotel and rental management in the UK. Most of our cash resources were used to fund our revenue related expenses, such as salaries and commissions paid to the PRC and the UK operating entities' sales force, daily administrative expenses, and the maintenance of regional offices.

As of December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $700,479.The working capital totaled $457,715.

The following table sets forth a summary of changes in our working capital for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| Working Capital | 2025 | 2024 | Change in $ | Change in % |
| Total current assets | 837297 | 1944193 | (1106896) | (57)% |
| Total current liabilities | 379582 | 1626410 | (1246828) | (77)% |
| Working Capital | $457715 | $317783 | $139932 | 44% |

---

Working capital was $457,715 as of December 31, 2025, representing an increase of $139,932, or 44%, compared to $317,783 as of December 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2025, total current assets were $837,297, a decrease of $1,106,896, or 57%, compared to $1,944,193 as of December 31, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to a lower cash balance, which mainly reflected cash utilized in the Company's operations during 2025.

Total current liabilities were $379,582 as of December 31, 2025, representing a decrease of $1,246,828, or 77%, compared to $1,626,410 as of December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to (i) the deconsolidation of the former VIE, which resulted in a reduction of approximately $176,000 in liabilities, and (ii) the exercise of September 2024 Series A Warrants during 2025, together with the remeasurement of the remaining September 2024 Series A Warrant liabilities as of December 31, 2025, which reduced liabilities by approximately $1,091,000.

The September 2024 Series A Warrant liabilities represent non-cash accounting liabilities measured at fair value in accordance with applicable accounting guidance and do not constitute obligations that will require the use of the Company's cash resources.

Public Offering on February 11, 2026

On February 11, 2026, the Company closed an underwritten follow-on offering of 122,286 units, with each unit consisting of (i) one Class A Ordinary Share and (ii) one February 2026 Series A Warrant at a public offering price of $49.00 per unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $6 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $5.44 million at closing.

Public Offering on March 2, 2026

On March 2, 2026, the Company closed a registered direct offering and issued and sold 702,858 Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company, par value $0.875 per share, to certain institutional investors at a purchase price of $3.55 per share.

Management believes that the Company's current cash position, together with other components of working capital, and the proceeds from the offerings successfully closed on February 11, 2026 and March 2, 2026, will be sufficient to support its operations and meet its obligations as they become due for at least the next 12 months from the date of issuance of this annual report. This assessment is based on current operating plans and assumptions, and there can be no assurance that such plans will be successfully executed.

**Cash Flows for the Year ended December 31, 2025, Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2024**

*Financing activities*

On September 18, 2024, the Company completed a private placement with several investors, issuing a total of 3,112 units at an offering price of $787.50 per unit, for gross proceeds of $2,450,002. After deducting private placement costs of $256,500, the Company received net cash proceeds of $2,193,502. In addition, the Company received $232,958 from the exercise of September 2024 Series A Warrants and September 2024 Series B Warrants, which were issued as part of the private placement.

From October 31, 2024 to November 7, 2024, the investors fully exercised their September 2024 Series B Warrants, resulting in the issuance of a total of 9,781 Ordinary Shares by the Company. Of the total September 2024 Series B Warrants exercised, 7,842 units of September 2024 Series B Warrants were determined by the floor price of $189.00 per share, while 1,939 units were determined by a price of 90% of the lowest trading price of the Ordinary Shares over the preceding ten-day period, which was slightly higher than the floor price. As the September 2024 Series B Warrants are designed for anti-dilution protection, the exercise price was $0.875 per unit. Accordingly, the Company received $8,558 in cash, representing the aggregate par value of the shares issued.

The exercise price of September 2024 Series A Warrants was adjusted downward from the original $1,181.25 per share to $189.00 per share following the exercise of the September 2024 Series B Warrants. Consequently, the total number of September 2024 Series A Warrants increased from 3,112 to 19,446. Between November 7, 2024, and December 18, 2024, four investors exercised a total of 1,188 September 2024 Series A Warrants, generating cash proceeds of $224,400 for the Company. As of December 31, 2024, 18,258 September 2024 Series A Warrants remained outstanding, with a fair value of $1,424,932 recorded as a current liability.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company repaid short term loans in the amount of $363,089.

**Capital Expenditures**

We incurred capital expenditures of $362,526, $35,748, and $106,544, for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The capital expenditures in 2025 and 2024 were primarily related to our UK operations, for the improvements and renovations of real properties. The capital expenditures in 2023 were primarily related to the building fixtures, facilities, landscaping, and improvement.

**Contractual Obligations**

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had 16,543 units of September 2024 Series A Warrants outstanding, which were issued in connection with the private placement completed on September 18, 2024. The Company classifies these outstanding warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet due to their derivative characteristics. The warrants are initially measured at fair value upon issuance and are subsequently remeasured at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of the warrant liabilities was $333,657, which is presented as a current liability on the balance sheet. The September 2024 Series A Warrants are set to expire on March 20, 2028.

**Lease Commitments**

On January 1, 2023, Mansions signed a lease agreement with MDJM UK to rent the "Fernie Castle," a property owned by MDJM UK, as the site of hotel. The rent is approximately $241,000 (182,500 Pound sterling), VAT exclusive, per annum. The rent is paid monthly on the 25th day of the month. Mansions is responsible for its operation expenses, building maintenance and repair of the property rented. The lease has no definite termination date but can be terminated by either party by submitting one-month notice in advance without penalty. When the lease is terminated, the rented property should be returned to MDJM UK.

On January 1, 2023, Mansions signed a lease agreement with MDJM UK to rent the "Robin Hill," a property owned by MDJM UK, as the site of hotel. The rent is approximately 199,000 (151,000 Pound sterling), VAT exclusive, per annum. The rent is paid monthly on the 25th day of the month. Mansions is responsible for its operation expenses, building maintenance and repair of the rented property. The lease has no definite termination date but can be terminated by either party by submitting one-month notice in advance without penalty. When the lease is terminated, the rented property should be returned to MDJM UK.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Mansions and MDJM UK are related companies under common control. ASC 842 requires entities to determine whether a related-party arrangement between entities under common control is a lease on the basis of the legally enforceable terms and conditions of the arrangement. The accounting for a lease depends on the enforceable rights and obligations of each party as a result of the contract. A lease is no longer considered enforceable when either party (i.e., lessee or lessor) can terminate the lease without permission from the other party and with no more than an insignificant penalty (ASC 842-10-55-23). The management believes that lease agreements between Mansions and MDJM UK is not legally enforceable since both Mansions and MDJM UK are under common control, and the lease can be terminated at any time with the needs of business without any penalty. Therefore, the Company did not apply the ASC 842 lessee and lessor accounting to the leases between Mansions and MDJM UK.

D.Trend Information

**Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations** 

Our operating results through the UK subsidiaries are subject to general conditions typically affecting the real estate services industry, including changes in governmental policies and laws affecting real estate and real estate financing, uneven economic growth and development across different regions of the UK, supply of and demand for housing and other types of property in local markets, entry barriers and competition from other real estate services companies, and increases in operating costs and expenses due to inflation and other factors. Unfavorable changes in any of these general conditions could negatively affect the UK subsidiaries; the number of customers visiting the hotels and other properties managed by them and otherwise adversely affect their results of operations. Our operating results are more directly affected by company-specific factors, including the UK subsidiaries' revenue growth and ability to effectively manage their operating costs and expenses.

***Economic and Political Risks***

Our current operations are conducted through the UK subsidiaries in the UK. Accordingly, our business, financial conditions, and results are influenced by political, economic, and legal environment of the UK.

Our results may be affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the UK, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, industry production regulations and guidance, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversions, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

E.Critical Accounting Estimates

***Basis of Consolidation***

The Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, the former VIE from January 1, 2025 to March 5, 2025, and Mingda Beijing from January 1, 2025 to August 25, 2025. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

On February 19, 2026, the Company approved a resolution to effect a 35-for-1 consolidation of its ordinary shares. Pursuant to the consolidation, each 35 authorized ordinary shares with a par value of $0.025 per share (including all issued and unissued shares) were combined into one ordinary share. As a result, the Company's authorized share capital was reduced from 10,000,000,000 ordinary shares of $0.025 par value each to 285,714,286 ordinary shares of $0.875 par value each, having such rights and subject to such restrictions as set forth in the Articles. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the share consolidation.

The Group evaluates each of its interests in private companies to determine whether or not the investee is a VIE and, if so, whether the Group is the primary beneficiary of such VIE. In determining whether the Group is the primary beneficiary, the Group considers if the Group (i) has power to direct the activities that most significantly affects the economic performance of the VIE, and (ii) receives the economic benefits of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. If deemed the primary beneficiary, the Group consolidates the VIE.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from such estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Group's financial statements include useful lives and valuation of long-lived assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, assumptions related to the consolidation of entities in which the Group holds variable interests, valuation allowance on deferred tax, valuation on stock - based compensation and valuation on derivative liabilities.

***Fair Value of Financial Instruments***

The Company follows the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"). It clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date;

Level 2 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data; and

Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, prepaid expenses, prepaid income tax, deferred tax assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income tax payable, and other taxes payable approximate their fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

***Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash***

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

The Group maintains cash and cash equivalents with various commercial banks in the UK. Cash held in the UK is denominated in British pound sterling and is freely transferable out of the UK.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

The Group maintained cash and cash equivalents with various commercial banks within the PRC. Cash in the PRC denominated in RMB might not be freely transferable to out of the PRC because of exchange control regulations or other reasons. Such restricted cash amounted to $0 and $193 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in the bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash held in PRC banks.

***Property and Equipment, Net***

Property and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Costs include any incremental costs that are directly attributable to the construction or acquisition of the item of property and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, while major maintenance and remodeling costs are capitalized if they extend the useful life of the asset. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives.

When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.

***Revenue Recognition***

The Group adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"). The Group determines revenue recognition through the following five steps: (1), identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer, (2), identification of the performance obligations in the contract, (3), determination of the transaction price, (4), allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5), recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

The PRC operating entities' service contracts typically included the terms of parties, services to be provided, service covered period, details of service fee calculation, and terms or conditions when services were to be paid. The performance obligation of the PRC operating entities was clearly defined as to sale of real properties specified in the contracts. The performance obligation was satisfied when at the point of closing of the sales contract with each property buyer was completed and, when the developer received the proceeds from the sales (cash and/or bank loans). The commission fee was determined based on the total value of property sold multiplied by the commission rate agreed upon in the contracts. The commission rates varied among developers. The payment terms also varied with certain developers dividing the contracts into several phases and making payment when a phase had been completed. These variable considerations did not change the calculation of commission fees. The transaction price was determined based on the commission rate and properties sold.

Prior to 2024, the Group's major revenue was generated by commission fees from selling real estate properties by the PRC operating entities. Commission revenue from property brokerage was recognized when: (i) the PRC operating entities completed their performance obligation to sell properties per contract, (ii) the property developer and the buyer completed a property sales transaction and the developer received full or partial amount of proceeds from the buyer or full payment from the banker if mortgaged, and (iii) the property developer granted confirmation to the PRC operating entities to issue an invoice per contract. The Group recognizes revenue net of value added taxes ("VAT").

The Group did not handle any monetary transactions nor act as an escrow intermediary between the developers and the buyers. Certain sales contracts allowed developers to withhold certain percentage of the total commission for a certain period as a risk fund to cover potential damages caused by sales activities of the PRC operating entities. In these circumstances, the PRC operating entities would not determine that its performance obligations had been fulfilled until the withholding period had passed. Since the amount being withheld was the risk of loss from the sales transaction, the Group recorded the amount withheld by developers as deferred income and would recognize the income when the withholding period had passed, and the amount withheld was confirmed by the developers.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

The Group engages in the business of managing rental property via its UK subsidiary Mansions commenced in August 2021. Mansions receives a one-time referral fee from tenants, based on a certain percentage of total leased value of lease agreement. The Group recognizes the revenue, when: a) the lease agreement is effective and b) the tenant made its first payment. Mansions also provides management services to tenants and collects service fees. Management service fees are recognized on a monthly basis. The prepayment of monthly service fee is recorded as deferred income.

The Group engages in the hotel business through its UK subsidiaries, which began operations in May 2023. Revenue from hotel operations is recognized in accordance with ASC 606. Revenue is recognized when control of goods and services is transferred to the customer, typically at the point in time when the customer consumes or utilizes the services provided by the Group's hotels. The Group's revenue streams from hotel operations primarily consist of room sales, food and beverage services, event space rentals, and other ancillary services. The revenue recognition for these streams is as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Room Sales: Revenue from room sales is recognized over the duration of the customer's stay, as control of the lodging service is transferred to the customer during the stay. Revenue is allocated to each night's stay based on the agreed-upon room rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Food and Beverage Services: Revenue from food and beverage services is recognized at the point in time when the food and beverages are served to the customer. Revenue is based on menu prices and is recognized as the customer consumes the items.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Event Space Rentals: Revenue from event space rentals is recognized at the point in time when the event space is made available to the customer for the event. Revenue is recognized based on the agreed-upon rental fee for the space.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. Ancillary Services: Revenue from other ancillary services, such as parking and recreational facilities, is recognized at the point in time when the service is provided to the customer.

The transaction price for each contract is determined based on the consideration agreed upon with the customer. If contracts include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on their relative standalone selling prices.

***Segment Information***

ASC 280 "Segment Reporting" required a public entity to report separately information about an operating segment that meets any of the following quantitative thresholds: (a) its reported revenue, including both sales to external customers and intersegment sales or transfers, is 10 percent or more of the combined revenue, internal and external, of all operating segments; (b) the absolute amount of its reported profit or loss is 10 percent or more of the greater, in absolute amount, of either: 1. The combined reported profit of all operating segments that did not report a loss or 2. The combined reported loss of all operating segments that did report a loss; or (c) its assets are 10 percent or more of the combined assets of all operating segments. Operating segments that do not meet any of the quantitative thresholds may be considered reportable, and separately disclosed, if management believes that information about the segment would be useful to readers of the financial statements. A company's operating segments are defined as components of the company that engage in business activities that generate revenue and incur expenses, and whose results are regularly reviewed by the company's chief operating decision maker (CODM) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Group uses "the management approach" in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Group's chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Group's reportable segments.

***Lease***

ASC 842 requires the Group to determine whether a contract is a lease or contains a lease at the inception of the contract, considering all relevant facts and circumstances. A contract is a lease or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

A lease is classified as a finance lease when the lease meets any of the following criteria: (i) the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term, (ii) the lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise, (iii) the lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset, (iv) the present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all (90% or more) of the fair value of the underlying asset, or (v) the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term. A lease not classified as a finance lease is classified as an operating lease.

A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. When measuring assets and liabilities arising from a lease, a lessee should include payments to be made in optional periods only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise its option to extend the lease or not exercise an option to terminate the lease. Similarly, optional payments to purchase the underlying asset should be included in the measurement of lease assets and lease liabilities only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that purchase option.

The Group elected not to recognize on balance sheet leases with terms of 12 months or less. The Group typically only includes the initial lease term in its assessment of a lease arrangement. Options to extend the lease are not included in the Group's assessment unless there is reasonable certainty that the Group will renew.

***Business Tax and Value Added Tax ("VAT")***

The PRC government implemented a VAT reform pilot program, which replaced the business tax with VAT. Since May 2016, the changes from business tax to VAT have been expanded to all other service sectors which used to be subject to business tax. The VAT rate applicable to subsidiaries and consolidated VIE of the Company is 6%. The Company accrues VAT payable when revenue is recognized.

The UK government charges VAT on business services and commission. The standard VAT rate is 20%. All income of Mansions in UK will be subject to VAT. The Company accrues VAT payable when revenue is recognized.

***Income Taxes***

The PRC operating entities' operation in China was governed by the income tax laws of the PRC. The Chinese Corporate Income Tax applies to all companies in China, foreign owned and Chinese owned. It is levied on company profits at a rate of 25%.

The Company's operations in the UK are subject to UK corporation tax. For financial years beginning on or after April 1, 2023, a small profits rate of 19% applies to taxable profits up to GBP50,000 and a main rate of 25% applies to taxable profits over GBP250,000. Companies with profits between GBP50,000 and GBP250,000 are generally chargeable at the 25% main rate but may claim Marginal Relief, which reduces the effective rate between 19% and 25%. These rate bands, including the small profits rate, main rate and Marginal Relief limits, have remained in place in subsequent years covered by these financial statements.

Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and their reported amounts in the financial statements, net operating loss carry forwards and credits by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years when the reported amounts of the asset or liability are expected to be recovered or settled, respectively. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

The Group only recognizes tax liabilities related to uncertain tax positions when such positions are more likely than not of being sustained upon examination. For such positions, the Group recognizes the largest amount of tax liabilities that is more than fifty percent likely of being sustained upon the ultimate settlement of such uncertain position. There were no such tax liabilities recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Group records interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense. There were no such interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***Per Share Amounts***

The Company computes per share amounts in accordance with ASC Topic 260 "Earnings per Share" (EPS), which requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to holders of ordinary shares by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary shares were exercised or converted into ordinary shares or resulted in the issuance of ordinary shares that then shared in the earnings of the Company, if any. This is computed by dividing net earnings by the combination of dilutive ordinary share equivalents.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a total of 16,543 units of September 2024 Series A Warrants outstanding, exercisable at a price of $189 per warrant. The closing price of the Company's ordinary shares was $72.45 as of December 31, 2025. Since the exercise price of the warrants exceeded the share price, the warrants had no dilutive impact. Consequently, all potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive effect. The September 2024 Series A Warrants are set to expire on March 20, 2028.

***Comprehensive Income***

The Company follows ASC 220-10, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which requires the reporting of comprehensive income in addition to net income. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. Comprehensive income generally represents all changes in shareholders' equity during the period except those resulting from investments by, or distributions to shareholders.

***Foreign Currency Translation***

The Company's principal operations are based in the UK and the PRC. Its financial position and operational results are determined by using GBP and RMB as functional currencies. However, the consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars. Foreign currency-denominated results of operations and cash flows are translated at the average exchange rate during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, while equity in the functional currency is translated at the historical rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution. Consequently, amounts reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows may not align precisely with changes in corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from period-to-period exchange rate fluctuations are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated balance sheets and statements of changes in shareholders' equity. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Any resulting gains or losses are recognized in the results of operations as they occur. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, a transaction loss of ($36,675), a gain of $80,603, and a gain of $18,762, respectively, was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

***Concentration Risk***

The Company's subsidiaries in the UK have bank accounts in the UK. Customer deposits held by banks, building societies and credit unions (including in Northern Ireland) in UK establishments that are authorized by the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) are protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) up to GBP85,000, which was approximately $114,000. The Company's total unprotected cash in bank amounted to approximately $516,000 and $1,701,000, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts.

***Deconsolidation***

In accordance with ASC 810-40, deconsolidation of a subsidiary occurs when: (a) some or all of the ownership interests of the subsidiary are sold resulting in the loss of a controlling financial interest; (b) a contractual agreement granting control of the subsidiary expires; (c) the subsidiary issues its shares to outsiders reducing the parent's ownership interest resulting in the loss of a controlling financial interest; or (d) the subsidiary becomes subject to the control of a government, court, administrator or regulator.

The parent should recognize a gain or loss measured as the difference between: (a) the aggregate of: (i) the fair value of any consideration received, (ii) the fair value of any retained non-controlling interest, and (iii) the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest at the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated; and (b) the carrying amount of the subsidiary's assets and liabilities.

A subsidiary should be deconsolidated from the date a controlling financial interest is lost and should also consider the equity components included in the non-controlling interest and the amounts previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), i.e., the foreign currency translation adjustment.

***Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements***

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures through improvements to disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The new guidance is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

***Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements***

The Group considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. The ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have a minimal impact on the Group's consolidated financial position and/or results of operations.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Group does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, or disclosures.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE), which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities. The DISE does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. DISE is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard will have no material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

We may terminate the employment for cause, at any time, without notice or remuneration, for certain acts of the executive officer, including but not limited to 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. B oard Practices

Pursuant to our second amended and restated articles of association, the minimum number of directors shall consist of no less than one person unless otherwise determined by the shareholders in a general meeting. Unless removed or re-appointed, each director shall be appointed for a term expiring at the next-following annual general meeting, if any is held. At any annual general meeting held, our directors will be elected by a majority vote of shareholders eligible to vote at that meeting. At each annual general meeting, each director so elected shall hold office for a one-year term and until the election of their respective successors in office or removed.

#### Board of Directors
Our board of directors consist of five directors as of the date of this annual report.

#### 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 Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands imposes a number of statutory duties on a director. A Cayman Islands director's fiduciary duties are not codified, however the courts of the Cayman Islands have held that a director owes the following fiduciary duties (a) a duty to act in what the director bona fide considers to be in the best interests of the company, (b) a duty to exercise their powers for the purposes they were conferred, (c) a duty to avoid fettering his or her discretion in the future and (d) a duty to avoid conflicts of interest and of duty. The common law duties owed by a director are those to act with skill, care and diligence 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, also, to act with the skill, care and diligence in keeping with a standard of care commensurate with any particular skill they have which enables them to meet a higher standard than a director without those skills. In fulfilling their duty of care to us, our directors must ensure compliance with our amended articles of association, as amended and restated from time to time. We have the right to seek damages if a duty owed by any of our directors is breached.

#### Terms of Directors and Executive Officers
Each of our directors holds office until a successor has been duly elected and qualified unless the director was appointed by the board of directors, in which case such director holds office until the next following annual meeting of shareholders at which time such director is eligible for reelection. All of our executive officers are appointed by and serve at the discretion of our board of directors.

#### Qualification
There is currently no shareholding qualification for directors.

**Committees of the Board of Directors**

For this purpose, a "U.S. Holder" is a holder of Securities that is: (1) an individual citizen or resident of the United States, including an alien individual who is a lawful permanent resident of the United States or meets the substantial presence residency test under U.S. federal income tax laws; (2) a corporation (or entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or a partnership (other than a partnership that is not treated as a U.S. person under any applicable U.S. Treasury regulations) created or organized under the laws of the United States or the District of Columbia or any political subdivision thereof; (3) an estate, the income of which is includable in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of source; (4) a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust; or (5) a trust that has a valid election in effect to be treated as a U.S. person to the extent provided in U.S. Treasury regulations.

This brief summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase our Securities. This brief summary generally considers only U.S. Holders that will own our Securities as capital assets. Except to the limited extent discussed below, this summary does not consider the U.S. federal tax consequences to a person that is not a U.S. Holder, nor does it describe the rules applicable to determine a taxpayer's status as a U.S. Holder. This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, final, temporary and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, (including with respect to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017), all as in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis, and all of which are open to differing interpretations. We will not seek a ruling from the IRS with regard to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an investment in our Securities by U.S. Holders and, therefore, can provide no assurances that the IRS will agree with the conclusions set forth below.

This discussion does not address all of the aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular U.S. Holder based on such holder's particular circumstances and in particular does not discuss any estate, gift, generation-skipping, transfer, state, local, excise or foreign tax considerations. In addition, this discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a U.S. Holder who is: (1) a bank, life insurance company, regulated investment company, or other financial institution or "financial services entity;" (2) a broker or dealer in securities or foreign currency; (3) a person who acquired our Securities in connection with employment or other performance of services; (4) a U.S. Holder that is subject to the U.S. alternative minimum tax; (5) a U.S. Holder that holds our Securities as a hedge or as part of a hedging, straddle, conversion or constructive sale transaction or other risk-reduction transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (6) a tax-exempt entity; (7) real estate investment trusts or grantor trusts; (8) a U.S. Holder that expatriates out of the United States or a former long-term resident of the United States; or (9) a person having a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar. This discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a U.S. Holder that owns, directly or constructively, at any time, Securities representing 10% or more of our voting power. Additionally, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of partnerships (or other pass-through entities) or persons who hold securities through a partnership or other pass-through entity are not addressed.

Each prospective investor is advised to consult his or her own tax adviser for the specific tax consequences to that investor of purchasing, holding, or disposing of our Securities, including the effects of applicable state, local, foreign, or other tax laws and possible changes in the tax laws.

***Exercise or Expiry of Warrants***

No gain or loss will be realized on the exercise of a warrant. When a warrant is exercised, the U.S. Holder's cost of the Class A Ordinary Share acquired thereby will be equal to the U.S. Holder's adjusted cost basis of the warrant plus the exercise price paid for the Class A Ordinary Share. The expiration of an unexercised warrant will generally give rise to a capital loss equal to the adjusted cost basis to the U.S. Holder of the warrant. The holding period of the Class A Ordinary Shares acquired by the exercise of a warrant will generally include the holding period of the warrant.

***Taxation of Dividends Paid on Securities***

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, the gross amount of distributions made by us to you with respect to the 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 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 Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Under U.S. Internal Revenue Service authority, 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 includes 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 Ordinary Shares, including the effects of any change in law after the date of this annual report.

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 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 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 the Disposition of Securities
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 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 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.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Except as provided under the PFIC rules described below under "Passive Foreign Investment Companies," upon the sale, exchange or other disposition of our Securities, a U.S. Holder will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between such U.S. Holder's tax basis for the securities in U.S. dollars and the amount realized on the disposition in U.S. dollar (or its U.S. dollar equivalent determined by reference to the spot rate of exchange on the date of disposition, if the amount realized is denominated in a foreign currency). The gain or loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of securities will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has a holding period of more than one year at the time of the disposition. Individuals who recognize long-term capital gains may be taxed on such gains at reduced rates of tax. The deduction of capital losses is subject to various limitations.

#### Passive Foreign Investment Companies (PFIC)
Special U.S. federal income tax laws apply to U.S. taxpayers who own shares of a corporation that is a PFIC. We will be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year that either:

● 75% or more of our gross income (including our pro rata share of gross income for any company, in which we are considered to own 25% or more of the shares by value), in a taxable year is passive; or

● At least 50% of our assets, averaged over the year and generally determined based upon fair market value (including our pro rata share of the assets of any company in which we are considered to own 25% or more of the shares by value) are held for the production of, or produce, passive income.

For this purpose, passive income generally consists of dividends, interest, rents, royalties, annuities and income from certain commodities transactions and from notional principal contracts. Cash is treated as generating passive income.

The tests for determining PFIC status are applied annually, and it is difficult to make accurate projections of future income and assets which are relevant to this determination. In addition, our PFIC status may depend in part on the market value of our Securities and how quickly we dispose of the cash raised in our offerings. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will not become a PFIC. The Company has no obligation to take measures to avoid becoming a PFIC.

If we currently are or become a PFIC, each U.S. Holder who has not elected to mark the shares to market (as discussed below), would, upon receipt of certain distributions by us and upon disposition of our Securities at a gain: (1) have such distribution or gain allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder's holding period for the securities, as the case may be; (2) the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any period prior to the first day of the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income; and (3) the amount allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to tax at the highest rate of tax in effect for the applicable class of taxpayer for that year, and an interest charge for the deemed deferral benefit would be imposed with respect to the resulting tax attributable to each such other taxable year. In addition, when shares of a PFIC are acquired by reason of death from a decedent that was a U.S. Holder, the tax basis of such shares would not receive a step-up to fair market value as of the date of the decedent's death, but instead would be equal to the decedent's basis if lower, unless all gain were recognized by the decedent. Indirect investments in a PFIC may also be subject to these special U.S. federal income tax rules.

The PFIC rules described above would not apply to a U.S. Holder who makes a QEF election for all taxable years that such U.S. Holder has held the Securities while we are a PFIC, provided that we comply with specified reporting requirements. Instead, each U.S. Holder who has made such a QEF election is required for each taxable year that we are a PFIC to include in income such U.S. Holder's pro rata share of our ordinary earnings as ordinary income and such U.S. Holder's pro rata share of our net capital gains as long-term capital gain, regardless of whether we make any distributions of such earnings or gain. In general, a QEF election is effective only if we make available certain required information. The QEF election is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and generally may be revoked only with the consent of the IRS In addition, we do not intend to furnish U.S. Holders annually with information needed in order to complete IRS Form 8621 and to make and maintain a valid QEF election for any year in which we or any of our subsidiaries are a PFIC. Therefore, the QEF election will not be available with respect to our Securities.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

In addition, the PFIC rules described above would not apply if we were a PFIC and a U.S. Holder made a mark-to-market election. A U.S. Holder of our Securities which are regularly traded on a qualifying exchange, including the Nasdaq Capital Market, can elect to mark the securities to market annually, recognizing as ordinary income or loss each year an amount equal to the difference as of the close of the taxable year between the fair market value of the securities and the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the securities. Losses are allowed only to the extent of net mark-to-market gain previously included income by the U.S. Holder under the election for prior taxable years.

U.S. Holders who hold our Securities during a period when we are a PFIC will be subject to the foregoing rules, even if we cease to be a PFIC. U.S. Holders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors about the PFIC rules.

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 securities, then such Securities 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 Securities 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 Securities 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 Securities for tax purposes.

***Tax on Net Investment Income***

U.S. Holders who are individuals, estates or trusts will generally be required to pay a 3.8% Medicare tax on their net investment income (including dividends on and gains from the sale or other disposition of our Securities), or in the case of estates and trusts on their net investment income that is not distributed. In each case, the 3.8% Medicare tax applies only to the extent the U.S. Holder's total adjusted income exceeds applicable thresholds.

***Tax Consequences for Non-U.S. Holders of Securities***

Except as provided below, an individual, corporation, estate, or trust that is not a U.S. Holder referred to below as a non-U.S. Holder, generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on the payment of dividends on, and the proceeds from the disposition of, our Securities.

A non-U.S. Holder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a dividend paid on our Securities or gain from the disposition of our Securities if: (1) such item is effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed place of business in the United States; or (2) in the case of a disposition of our Securities, the individual non-U.S. Holder is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition and other specified conditions are met.

In general, non-U.S. Holders will not be subject to backup withholding with respect to the payment of dividends on our Securities if payment is made through a paying agent, or office of a foreign broker outside the United States. However, if payment is made in the United States or by a U.S. related person, non-U.S. Holders may be subject to backup withholding, unless the non-U.S. Holder provides an applicable IRS Form W-8 (or a substantially similar form) certifying its foreign status, or otherwise establishes an exemption.

The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a non-U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against such holder's U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

#### Information Reporting and Withholding
Dividend payments with respect to our Ordinary Shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of our Ordinary Shares may be subject to information reporting to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and possible U.S. backup withholding at a current 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. However, transactions effected through certain brokers or other intermediaries 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 Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for 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 Ordinary Shares. Failure to report the information could result in substantial penalties. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding your obligation to file Form 8938.

We are subject to the periodic reporting and other informational requirements of the Exchange Act. Under the Exchange Act, we are required to file reports and other information with the SEC. Specifically, we are required to file annually a Form 20-F within four months after the end of each fiscal year. The SEC maintains a website at http://www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding registrants that make electronic filings with the SEC using its EDGAR system. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules of the Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements to shareholders under the federal proxy rules contained in Sections 14(a), (b) and (c) of the Exchange Act, and our executive officers, directors, and principal shareholders are exempt from the short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. On December 18, 2025, the Holding Foreign Insiders Accountable Act was enacted as part of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, mandating directors and officers of foreign private issuers to file Section 16(a) reports (Forms 3, 4, and 5) with the SEC to report beneficial ownership interests in companies, effective on March 18, 2026. Our principal shareholders who are not our officers or directors, however, will remain exempt from Section 16(a) reporting requirements.

#### Item 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

#### Foreign Exchange Risk
Our functional currency is GBP and our reporting currency is U.S. dollars. As a result, fluctuations in the exchange rates between GBP and the U.S. dollar may affect our results of operations and financial condition.

To the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars we receive from financing activities into GBP for our operations in the UK, appreciation of GBP against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the GBP amount we would receive from the conversion. On the other hand, a decline in the value of GBP against the U.S. dollar could reduce the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of our financial results, and the dividends we may pay in the future, if any, all of which may have a material adverse effect on the prices of our Ordinary Shares.

To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. While we may decide to enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these hedges may be limited and we may not be able to adequately hedge our exposure or at all. As a result, fluctuations in exchange rates may have a material adverse effect on your investment.

#### Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash.

The Company's subsidiaries in the UK have bank accounts in the UK. Customer deposits held by banks, building societies and credit unions in UK establishments that are authorized by the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) (including in Northern Ireland) are protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) up to GBP85,000, which was approximately $114,000. The Company's total unprotected cash in bank amounted to approximately $516,000, $1,701,000, and $368,000, as of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts. Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, thereby exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by our assessment of its customers' creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, thereby exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by our assessment of customers' creditworthiness and ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

#### Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that we will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with our financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or other financial assets. Our approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that we will always have sufficient liquidity to meet our liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to our reputation.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Carrying <br>Amount as of<br>December 31, <br>2025 in US$ | <br>One Year or<br>Less | <br>Over One Year  |
| Trade and other payables | $41799 | $41799 | $— |
| Deferred income | 4126 | 4126 |  |
| September 2024 Series A Warrants liabilities \* | 333657 | 333657 |  |
| Total | $379582 | $379582 | $— |

---

\*As of December 31, 2025, the Company had 16,543 September 2024 Series A Warrants outstanding, which were issued in connection with the private placement completed on September 18, 2024 and are set to expire on March 20, 2028. The Company classifies these outstanding warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet due to their derivative characteristics. The warrants are initially measured at fair value upon issuance and are subsequently remeasured at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of the warrant liabilities was $333,657, which is presented as a current liability on the balance sheet.

***Interest Rate Risk***

We have not used derivative financial instruments to hedge interest risk. Interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. We have not been exposed, nor do we anticipate being exposed to material risks due to changes in market interest rates. However, our future interest income may fall short of expectations due to changes in market interest rates.

#### Inflation Risk
In recent years, inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations. According to the Office for National Statistics, the consumer price index in the UK increased by 3.6%, 3.3%, and 6.8%, in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Although we have not in the past been materially affected by inflation since our inception, we can provide no assurance that we will not be affected in the future by higher rates of inflation in the UK. If inflation rises, it may materially and adversely affect the UK subsidiaries and our business.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, which is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2025. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025 were effective.

#### Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. The assessment was based on criteria established in the framework Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or because the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

#### Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
This annual report on Form 20-F does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC where domestic and foreign registrants that are non-accelerated filers, which we are, are not required to provide the auditor attestation report.

**Item 16G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**

As a Cayman Islands company listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we are subject to the Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance listing standards. However, Nasdaq Capital Market rules permit a foreign private issuer like us to follow the corporate governance practices of its home country. Certain corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands, which is our home country, may differ significantly from the Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance listing standards.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 generally provides that shareholder approval is required of U.S. domestic companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market prior to (i) issuances in connection with the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company if upon issuance the issued shares will equal to 20% or more of the number of shares or voting power outstanding prior to the issuance, or if certain specified persons have a 5% or greater interest in the assets or company to be acquired (Rule 5635(a)); (ii) issuances or potential issuances that will result in a change of control (Rule 5635(b)); (iii) issuances in connection with equity compensation arrangements (Rule 5635(c)); and (iv) 20% or greater issuances in transactions other than public offerings, as defined in the Nasdaq rules (Rule 5635(d)). 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. The Company, therefore, is not required to obtain such shareholder approval prior to entering into a transaction with the potential to issue securities as described above. The board of directors of the Company has elected to follow the Company's home country rules as to such issuances and will not be required to seek shareholder approval prior to entering into such a transaction.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(b)(1) requires 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. Currently, a majority of our board members are independent. Other than those described above, there are no significant differences between our corporate governance practices and those followed by U.S. domestic companies under Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance listing standards.

#### Item 16H. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURE
Not applicable.

#### Item 16I. DISCLOSURE REGARDING FOREIGN JURISDICTIONS THAT PREVENT INSPECTIONS

#### Not applicable.
**Item 16J. INSIDER TRADING POLICIES**

Our board of directors has adopted insider trading policies and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and other dispositions of our securities by directors, senior management, and employees that are reasonably designed to promote compliance with applicable insider trading laws, rules, and regulations, and any listing standards applicable to us.

**Item 16K. CYBERSECURITY** 

**Risk Management and Strategy** 

We believe an effective cybersecurity program is critical to guard the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our information systems and data residing in those systems. We have built and continue to evolve processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats. We have embedded the oversight and management of cybersecurity risk within our enterprise risk management framework to help drive a company-wide culture of cybersecurity risk management, and we have established policies and procedures as well as a reporting line of governance that guide our cybersecurity risk management program.

**Governance**

Our board of directors leads cybersecurity efforts directly and plays an active role in preparing for cybersecurity challenges. Board members familiar themselves with cybersecurity risks through self-learning and delegate the task of dynamically monitoring cybersecurity to the secretary of the board, who is responsible for promptly tracking and staying informed about the dissemination of the Company's network information. We also ensure that there is a prompt and synchronized internal exchange of network information. The board encourages all departments and employees to provide timely and convenient feedback on cybersecurity issues. Once risks are identified, they are swiftly shared and discussed to formulate response strategies. In addition, we strengthen information security education and training. In response to the continuously evolving network environment, the Company proactively shares and conducts training on the latest developments in cybersecurity. Such training helps enhance overall awareness of cybersecurity risks among our staff and, as a result, effectively prevents common cyber threats.

We are also registered with the UK Information Commissioner's Office ("ICO"), which is the UK's independent regulatory authority overseeing data protection matters under relevant laws and regulations, such as the Data Protection Act 2018 and the General Data Protection Regulation. Having completed our registration, we regularly stay updated with the latest cybersecurity news and alerts from the ICO. As part of our cybersecurity measures, our business practices also adhere to ICO standards.

Through the implementation of these comprehensive cybersecurity controls, we have effectively minimized significant cybersecurity risks to our operations. To date, we have not encountered any cybersecurity incidents which have affected or are reasonably likely to affect us.

#### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

MDJM LTD

***Opinion on the Financial Statements***

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MDJM LTD and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

***Basis for Opinion***

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's 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 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 financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

***Critical Audit Matters***

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

We did not identify any critical audit matters during the course of our audit for the year ended December 31 2025.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

#### NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Organization

MDJM LTD (the "Company" or "MDJM") was incorporated on January 26, 2018 under the laws of the Cayman Islands as an exempted company originally named MDJLEAD LTD. On May 7, 2018, the Company adopted its current name, MDJM LTD. Prior to 2023, the Company, through its subsidiaries and its consolidated variable interest entity (the "VIE"), was primarily engaged in providing comprehensive services throughout the life cycle of residential real estate projects in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC"). These services included primary real estate agency, consulting, and the training and evaluation for primary agency sales (see Note "Deconsolidation"). Since 2022, the Company has diversified its business into the hospitality industry by purchasing and managing hotel and restaurant businesses in the United Kingdom (the "UK"). In 2022, through its UK subsidiaries, the Company acquired two UK real estate properties, among which one is currently undergoing remodeling to be transformed into a hotel with restaurant facilities, and the other was opened to the public in March 2023.

The Company, its subsidiaries, and the consolidated VIE are collectively referred to as the "Group." Where appropriate, the terms "we," "our," or "us" also refer to MDJM or the Company and its subsidiaries and the consolidated VIE as a whole.

Ownership and Control Structure

MDJM wholly owns MDJCC Limited ("MDJM Hong Kong"), which was incorporated on February 9, 2018 under the laws of Hong Kong. MDJM Hong Kong holds a 100% ownership interest in Beijing Mingda Jiahe Technology Development Co., Ltd. ("Mingda Beijing"), a limited liability company organized on March 9, 2018 under the laws of the PRC. Mingda Beijing is classified as a wholly foreign-owned enterprise ("WFOE").

On April 28, 2018, Mingda Beijing entered into a series of contractual arrangements, commonly referred to as a variable interest entity structure, with Tianjin Mingda Jiahe Real Estate Co., Ltd. ("Mingda Tianjin"). Mingda Tianjin, a limited liability company organized on September 25, 2002 under the laws of the PRC, changed its name to Mingdajiahe (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. on February 2, 2021. Mingda Tianjin conducted MDJM's primary business operations in China prior to 2023.

MDJM wholly owns MD Local Global Limited ("MDJM UK"), which was incorporated in the UK under the Companies Act 2006 as a private company on October 28, 2020. It is registered in England and Wales.

At the time of Mansions' incorporation, MDJM UK held a 51% equity interest, Ocean Tide Wealth Limited, a specialist mortgage broker in the United Kingdom, held 41%, and the remaining 8% was held by Mingzhe Zhang, an individual shareholder.

VIE Arrangements

PRC regulations prohibit or restrict foreign ownership of companies that provide services in certain industries. To comply with these regulations, on April 28, 2018, Mingda Beijing entered into a series of contractual arrangements with Mingda Tianjin and shareholders of Mingda Tianjin (collectively, the "VIE Agreements"). Due to PRC legal restrictions on foreign ownership in the real estate sector, neither the Company nor its subsidiaries owned any equity interest in Mingda Tianjin. Instead, for accounting purposes, the Company controlled and received the economic benefits of Mingda Tianjin's business operation through the VIE Agreements, which enabled the Company to consolidate the financial results of Mingda Tianjin and its subsidiaries in the Company's consolidated financial statements under the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

#### Agreements that Transfer Economic Benefits of Mingda Tianjin
On April 28, 2018, Mingda Beijing entered into an "Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement" (the "Business Agreement") with Mingda Tianjin. Pursuant to the Business Agreement, Mingda Beijing would provide a series of consulting and technical support services to Mingda Tianjin and was entitled to receive 100% of Mingda Tianjin's net income after deduction of required PRC statutory surplus reserve as a service fee. The service fee was paid annually or at any such time agreed by Mingda Beijing and Mingda Tianjin. The term of this Business Agreement was valid for 10 years upon execution of the agreement and may be extended or terminated prior to the expiration date at the will of Mingda Beijing. Unless expressly provided by the Business Agreement, without prior written consent of Mingda Beijing, Mingda Tianjin may not engage any third party to provide the services offered by Mingda Beijing under the agreement.

#### Agreements that Enable the Company to Control and Receive the Economic Benefits of Mingda Tianjin's Business Operation for Accounting Purposes
On April 28, 2018, each of the shareholders of Mingda Tianjin entered into an "Exclusive Option Agreement" (collectively, the "Option Agreements") with Mingda Beijing. Pursuant to the Option Agreements, each of the shareholders of Mingda Tianjin granted an irrevocable and unconditional option to Mingda Beijing or its designees to acquire all or part of such shareholder's equity interests in Mingda Tianjin at its sole discretion, to the extent as permitted by PRC laws and regulations then in effect. The consideration for such acquisition of all equity interests in Mingda Tianjin would be equal to the registered capital of Mingda Tianjin, and if PRC law required the consideration to be greater than the registered capital, the consideration would be the minimum amount as permitted by PRC law. The Option Agreements were valid for 10 years upon execution of the agreements and may be extended prior to the expiration date at will by Mingda Beijing.

On April 28, 2018, each of the shareholders of Mingda Tianjin also entered into a "Share Pledge Agreement" (collectively, the "Pledge Agreements") with Mingda Beijing. Pursuant to the Pledge Agreements, the shareholders pledged their respective equity interests in Mingda Tianjin to guarantee the performance of the obligations of Mingda Tianjin. Mingda Beijing, as pledgee, would be entitled to certain rights, including the right to sell the pledged equity interests. Pursuant to the Pledge Agreements, each of the shareholders of Mingda Tianjin could not transfer, sell, pledge, dispose of, or otherwise create any new encumbrance on their respective equity interests in Mingda Tianjin without the prior written consent of Mingda Beijing. The equity pledge right would expire when the exclusive business cooperation between Mingda Beijing and Mingda Tianjin was terminated, and all service fees were paid. The equity pledges of Mingda Tianjin were registered with the relevant local branch of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.

The Company, through its subsidiaries and the VIE Agreements, had (1) the power to direct the activities of Mingda Tianjin that most significantly affect the entity's economic performance and (2) the right to receive benefits from Mingda Tianjin. Accordingly, the Company was the primary beneficiary of Mingda Tianjin and had consolidated the financial results of Mingda Tianjin.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

*Termination of VIE Agreement*

On March 3, 2025, the Board of Directors resolved to terminate the contractual arrangements with Mingda Tianjin. On March 1, 2025, Mingda Beijing entered into termination agreements (the "Termination Agreement") with Mingda Tianjin and its shareholders, pursuant to which all VIE agreements were terminated. As a result, Mingda Beijing ceased providing business support and related consulting services to Mingda Tianjin and was no longer recognized as a beneficial owner of Mingda Tianjin. On March 5, 2025, the local authorities in Beijing issued a Notice of Deregistration of Equity Pledge to each shareholder of Mingda Tianjin, thereby formally completing the deregistration of equity pledges and officially terminating the contractual arrangements between Mingda Beijing and Mingda Tianjin.

#### NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, Mingda Tianjin from January 1, 2025 to March 5, 2025, and Mingda Beijing from January 1, 2025 to August 25, 2025. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

On February 19, 2026, the board of directors of Company approved a resolution to effect a 35-for-1 consolidation of its ordinary shares. Pursuant to the consolidation, each 35 authorized ordinary shares with a par value of $0.025 per share (including all issued and unissued shares) were combined into one ordinary share. As a result, the Company's authorized share capital was reduced from 10,000,000,000 ordinary shares of $0.025 par value each to 285,714,286 ordinary shares of $0.875 par value each, having such rights and subject to such restrictions as set forth in the second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company (as amended) (the "Articles"). The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the share consolidation.

The Group evaluates each of its interests in private companies to determine whether or not the investee is a VIE and, if so, whether the Group is the primary beneficiary of such VIE. In determining whether the Group is the primary beneficiary, the Group considers if the Group (i) has the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE, and (ii) receives the economic benefits of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. If deemed the primary beneficiary, the Group consolidates the VIE.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from such estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Group's financial statements include useful lives and valuation of long-lived assets, allowance for CECL - trade receivable, assumptions related to the consolidation of entities in which the Group holds variable interests, valuation allowance on deferred tax, valuation on stock based compensation and valuation on derivative liabilities.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"). It clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date;

Level 2 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data; and

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Level 3 – Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income tax payable, and other taxes payable approximate their fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

The Group maintains cash and cash equivalents with various commercial banks in the UK. Cash held in the UK is denominated in British Pound Sterling and is freely transferable out of the UK.

The Group maintained cash and cash equivalents with various commercial banks within the PRC. Cash in the PRC denominated in RMB may not be freely transferable to out of the PRC because of exchange control regulations or other reasons. Such restricted cash amounted to $0 and $193 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in the bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash held in PRC banks.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Costs include any incremental costs that are directly attributable to the construction or acquisition of the item of property and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, while major maintenance and remodeling costs are capitalized if they extend the useful life of the asset. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives.

When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.

| Buildings and leasehold improvement | 50 years |
| Building fixtures, furniture and landscaping | 4 to 10 years |
| Office Equipment and Fixtures | 3 to 5 years |
| Software | 2 or 10 years |
| Vehicles | 4 or 5 years |

Revenue Recognition

The Group adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"). The Group determines revenue recognition through the following five steps: (1), identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer, (2), identification of the performance obligations in the contract, (3), determination of the transaction price, (4), allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5), recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

The operating entities' service contracts typically include the terms of parties, services to be provided, service covered period, details of service fee calculation, and terms or conditions when services are to be paid. The performance obligation of the operating entities is clearly defined as to the sale of real properties specified in the contracts. The performance obligation is satisfied at the point when at the point of closing of the sales contract with each property buyer is completed and when the developer receives the proceeds from the sales (cash and/or bank loans). The commission fee is determined based on the total value of the property sold multiplied by the commission rate agreed upon in the contracts. The commission rates vary among developers. The payment terms also vary with certain developers dividing the contracts into several phases and making payment when a phase has been completed. These variable considerations will not change the calculation of the commission fee. The transaction price is determined based on the commission rate and properties sold.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Prior to 2023, the Group's major revenue was generated by commission fees from selling real estate properties since its inception. Commission revenue from property brokerage is recognized when: (i) the operating entities have completed their performance obligation to sell properties per contract, (ii) the property developer and the buyer completed a property sales transaction and the developer received a full or partial amount of proceeds from the buyer or full payment from the banker if mortgaged, and (iii) the property developer granted confirmation to the operating entities to issue an invoice per contract. The Group recognizes revenue net of value-added taxes ("VAT").

The Group did not handle any monetary transactions nor act as escrow intermediary between the developers and the buyers. Certain sales contracts allow developers to withhold a certain percentage of the total commission for a certain period as a risk fund to cover potential damage caused by the sales activities of the operating entities. In these circumstances, the Group's operating performance obligations are not fulfilled until the withholding period has passed. Since the amount being withheld is the risk of loss from the sales transaction, the Group records the amount withheld by developers as deferred income and will recognize the income when the withholding period has passed, and the amount withheld is confirmed by the developers.

The Group engaged in the business of managing rental properties through its UK subsidiary, Mansions, which commenced operations in August 2021. Revenue from one-time referral fees paid by tenants is recognized proportionally over the lease term. The Group recognizes this revenue when both of the following conditions are met: (a) the lease agreement has been executed, and (b) the tenant has made its first payment. Mansions also provides property management services to tenants and collects service fees for these services. Management service fees are recognized on a monthly basis. Any prepayment of monthly service fees is recorded as deferred income until the related services are provided.

The Group currently engages in the hotel business through its UK subsidiaries, which commenced operations in May 2023. Revenue from hotel operations is recognized in accordance with ASC 606. Revenue is recognized when control of goods and services is transferred to the customer, which generally occurs at the point in time when the customer consumes or utilizes the services provided by the Group's hotels. The Group's hotel revenue streams primarily consist of room accommodations, food and beverage services, event and meeting space rentals, and other ancillary services. Revenue from these streams is recognized as follows:

Room Accommodations: Revenue from room accommodations is recognized over the duration of the customer's stay, as control of the lodging service is transferred to the customer during the stay. Revenue is allocated to each night's stay based on the agreed-upon room rate.

Food and Beverage Services: Revenue from food and beverage services is recognized at the point in time when the food and beverages are served to the customer. Revenue is based on menu prices and is recognized as the customer consumes the items.

Event and Meeting Space Rentals: Revenue from event and meeting space rentals is recognized at the point in time when the event or meeting space is made available to the customer for the event. Revenue is recognized based on the agreed-upon rental fee for the space.

Ancillary Services: Revenue from other ancillary services, such as parking and recreational facilities, is recognized at the point in time when the service is provided to the customer.

The transaction price for each contract is determined based on the consideration agreed upon with the customer. If contracts include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on their relative standalone selling prices.

The Group periodically reviews its contracts to ensure that revenue recognition practices remain consistent with the principles of ASC 606. Any changes in estimates or adjustments to revenue recognition are recognized in the period in which the change or adjustment becomes known.

Segment

ASC 280 "Segment Reporting" requires a public entity to report separately information about an operating segment that meets any of the following quantitative thresholds: (a) its reported revenue, including both sales to external customers and intersegment sales or transfers, is 10 percent or more of the combined revenue, internal and external, of all operating segments; (b) the absolute amount of its reported profit or loss is 10 percent or more of the greater, in absolute amount, of either: 1. the combined reported profit of all operating segments that did not report a loss or 2. the combined reported loss of all operating segments that did report a loss; or (c) its assets are 10 percent or more of the combined assets of all operating segments. Operating segments that do not meet any of the quantitative thresholds may be considered reportable, and separately disclosed, if management believes that information about the segment would be useful to readers of the financial statements. A company's operating segments are defined as components of the company that engage in business activities that generate revenue and incur expenses, and whose results are regularly reviewed by the company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Group uses "the management approach" in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Group's CODM for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Group's reportable segments.

Lease

ASC 842 requires the Group to determine whether a contract is a lease or contains a lease at the inception of the contract, considering all relevant facts and circumstances. A contract is a lease or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

A lease is classified as a finance lease when the lease meets any of the following criteria: (i) the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term, (ii) the lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise, (iii) the lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset, (iv) the present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all (90% or more) of the fair value of the underlying asset, or (v) the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term. A lease not classified as a finance lease is classified as an operating lease.

A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. When measuring assets and liabilities arising from a lease, a lessee should include payments to be made in optional periods only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise its option to extend the lease or not exercise an option to terminate the lease. Similarly, optional payments to purchase the underlying asset should be included in the measurement of lease assets and lease liabilities only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that purchase option.

The Group elected not to recognize on balance sheet leases with terms of 12 months or less. The Group typically only includes the initial lease term in its assessment of a lease arrangement. Options to extend the lease are not included in the Group's assessment unless there is reasonable certainty that the Group will renew.

Business Tax and Value Added Tax ("VAT")

The PRC government implemented a VAT reform pilot program, which replaced the business tax with VAT. Since May 2016, the changes from business tax to VAT have been expanded to all other service sectors which used to be subject to business tax. The VAT rate applicable to subsidiaries and consolidated VIE of the Company was 6%. The Company accrues VAT payable when revenue is recognized.

The UK government charges VAT on business services and commissions. The standard VAT rate is 20%. All income of the UK subsidiaries will be subject to VAT. The Company accrues VAT payable when revenue is recognized.

Income Taxes

The Company's operation in China was governed by the income tax laws of the PRC. The Chinese Corporate Income Tax applies to all companies in China, foreign owned and Chinese owned. It is levied on company profits at a rate of 25%.

The Company's operations in the United Kingdom are subject to UK corporation tax. For financial years beginning on or after April 1, 2023, a small profits rate of 19% applies to taxable profits up to GBP50,000 and a main rate of 25% applies to taxable profits over GBP250,000. Companies with profits between GBP50,000 and GBP250,000 are generally chargeable at the 25% main rate but may claim Marginal Relief, which reduces the effective rate between 19% and 25%. These rate bands, including the small profits rate, main rate and Marginal Relief limits, have remained in place in subsequent years covered by these financial statements.

Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and their reported amounts in the financial statements, net operating loss carryforwards and credits by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years when the reported amounts of the asset or liability are expected to be recovered or settled, respectively. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

The Group only recognizes tax liabilities related to uncertain tax positions when such positions are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. For such positions, the Group recognizes the largest amount of tax liabilities that is more than fifty percent likely to be sustained upon the ultimate settlement of such uncertain position. There were no such tax liabilities recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Group records interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense. There were no such interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Per Share Amounts

The Company computes per share amounts in accordance with ASC Topic 260 "Earnings per Share" (EPS), which requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to holders of ordinary shares by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary shares were exercised or converted into ordinary shares or resulted in the issuance of ordinary shares that then shared in the earnings of the Company, if any. This is computed by dividing net earnings by the combination of dilutive ordinary share equivalents.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a total of 16,543 units of September 2024 Series A Warrants (defined below) outstanding, exercisable at a price of $189 per warrant. The closing price of the Company's ordinary shares was $72.45 as of December 31, 2025. Since the exercise price of the warrants exceeded the share price, the warrants had no dilutive impact. Consequently, all potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive effect. The September 2024 Series A Warrants are set to expire on March 20, 2028.

Comprehensive Income

The Company follows ASC 220-10, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which requires the reporting of comprehensive income in addition to net income. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. Comprehensive income generally represents all changes in shareholders' equity during the period except those resulting from investments by, or distributions to shareholders.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company's principal operations are based in the UK and the PRC. Its financial position and operational results are determined by using GBP and RMB as functional currencies. However, the consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars. Foreign currency-denominated results of operations and cash flows are translated at the average exchange rate during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, while equity in the functional currency is translated at the historical rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution. Consequently, amounts reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows may not align precisely with changes in corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from period-to-period exchange rate fluctuations are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated balance sheets and statements of changes in shareholders' equity. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Any resulting gains or losses are recognized in the results of operations as they occur. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, a transaction loss of ($36,675), a gain of $80,603, and a gain of $18,762, respectively, was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

The following table outlines the currency exchange rates used in the consolidated financial statements:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| 1 US$ = RMB | 2025 | 2024 | 2023 |
| At end of the period – RMB | 6.9931 | 7.2993 | 7.0999 |
| Average rate for the period ended – RMB | 7.1875 | 7.1957 | 7.0809 |
| 1 US$ = GBP |  |  |  |
| At end of the period – GBP | 0.7437 | 0.7987 | 0.7847 |
| Average rate for the period ended – GBP | 0.7580 | 0.7824 | 0.8039 |

Concentration Risk

The Company's subsidiaries in the UK have bank accounts in the UK. Customer deposits held by banks, building societies and credit unions (including in Northern Ireland) in UK establishments that are authorized by the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) are protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) up to GBP85,000, which was approximately $114,000. The Company's total unprotected cash in bank amounted to approximately $516,000 and $1,701,000 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Deconsolidation

In accordance with ASC 810-10-40, deconsolidation of a subsidiary occurs when: (a) some or all of the ownership interests of the subsidiary are sold resulting in the loss of a controlling financial interest; (b) a contractual agreement granting control of the subsidiary expires; (c) the subsidiary issues its shares to outsiders reducing the parent's ownership interest resulting in the loss of a controlling financial interest; or (d) the subsidiary becomes subject to the control of a government, court, administrator or regulator.

The parent should recognize a gain or loss measured as the difference between: (a) the aggregate of: (i) the fair value of any consideration received, (ii) the fair value of any retained non-controlling interest, and (iii) the carrying amount of any non-controlling interest at the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated; and (b) the carrying amount of the subsidiary's assets and liabilities.

A subsidiary should be deconsolidated from the date a controlling financial interest is lost and should also consider the equity components included in the non-controlling interest and the amounts previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), i.e., the foreign currency translation adjustment.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures: This guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures through improvements to disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The new guidance is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Group considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. The ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have a minimal impact on the Group's consolidated financial position and/or results of operations. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Group does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, or disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"). ASU 2024-03, as amended by ASU No. 2025-01, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): clarifying the Effective Date, will require additional disclosures and disaggregation of certain costs and expenses presented on the face of the income statement. The new guidance is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

#### NOTE 3 – ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
There were no accounts receivable as of December 31, 2025. Accounts receivable for the year end December 31, 2024 were primarily agent service fee receivable from the customers – real estate developers - and are recognized and carried at the amount billed to a customer, net of allowance for expected loss from doubtful accounts.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, accounts receivable consisted of the following:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | 2025 | 2024 |
| Accounts receivable | $— | $134960 |
| Allowance for CECL |  | (134960) |
| Accounts receivable, net | $— | $— |

ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"), requires entities to measure and recognize expected credit losses on all financial assets held at amortized cost. The CECL model requires the measurement of expected credit losses, even when the risk of loss is remote. Management believes that historical collection information is a reasonable basis on which to determine expected credit losses because the composition of accounts receivable at the reporting date is consistent with the data used in developing the historical credit-loss percentages. In other words, customer risk characteristics and payment practices have remained relatively stable over time. However, current and reasonably foreseeable economic conditions are expected to have a significant impact on the Company's collectability of accounts receivable. The Company applies the Bank of England's lending rate, together with its historical loss rate, as a forward-looking adjustment in estimating expected credit losses under CECL. Management believes this approach appropriately reflects the potential time value of money while incorporating expectations about broader economic conditions. Accounts receivable with similar risk characteristics are pooled for purposes of calculating CECL.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

The following CECL rates were used to calculate expected credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2024.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Age of accounts receivable | Over 365 days |
| Historical loss rate | 20.00% |
| Adjustment rate | 80.00% |
| CECL rate | 100.00% |

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had accounts receivable of $134,960 (RMB 971,135), primarily from one vendor. The Company initiated legal proceedings against Chengdu TEDA New City in the People's Court of Dujiangyan City, Sichuan Province, on January 9, 2023, for breach of contract and unpaid service fees totaling approximately $261,000 (RMB 1,872,419). On March 28, 2023, the court ruled in favor of the Company, ordering Chengdu TEDA to pay the full claimed amount within 10 days. The Company received a partial payment of $126,000 (RMB 907,662) on September 1, 2023. As of December 31, 2024, the remaining balance from this vendor was still outstanding. Given the deterioration of the real estate market in China, management has determined that the Company is unlikely to recover the remaining balance. Consequently, a 100% CECL rate has been applied to accounts receivable outstanding for more than 365 days.

#### NOTE 4 – PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET
Property and equipment, net consists of the following:

#### NOTE 5 – INCOME TAX AND DEFERRED TAX ASSETS
The Company and its subsidiaries have no presence in the United States and do not conduct business in the United States, so no United States income tax is imposed upon the Company and its subsidiaries.

MDJM was incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Under the current laws of the Cayman Islands, the Company and its subsidiaries are not subject to income tax or capital gains tax. In addition, dividends paid by the Company to its shareholders are not subject to Cayman Islands withholding tax. For the year ended December 31, 2025, MDJM reported net income of $187,978, which primarily resulted from a $965,095 gain on the revaluation of warrants and an $81,996 of exchange gain from the deconsolidation of the VIE, partially offset by operating expenses of $859,113. As the Company is not subject to income taxes in its jurisdiction of incorporation, no provision for current or deferred income tax has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

MDJM Hong Kong was incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong and is subject to the uniform tax rate of 16.5%. Under Hong Kong tax law, it is exempted from the Hong Kong income tax on its foreign-derived income and there are no withholding taxes in Hong Kong on the remittance of dividends. MDJM Hong Kong did not have significant activities in Hong Kong for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

MDJM UK and Mansions were incorporated in the UK. A UK company is subject to UK corporation tax on its income and capital profits. The normal rate of corporation tax is 19% for the financial year beginning April 1, 2021 and remained at this rate for the financial year beginning April 1, 2022. From April 1, 2023, the main rate of corporation tax increased from 19% to 25%, and a new 19% small profits rate of corporation tax was introduced for companies whose profits do not exceed 50,000 pounds sterling (GBP).

The Group conducted substantially all of its business in the PRC through its VIE and subsidiaries prior to the year ended December 31, 2024. The operating entities located in the PRC were subject to PRC income taxes, a standard tax rate of 25%. At the beginning of 2019, China State Administration of Taxation issued an income tax abatement policy to small businesses with taxable income less than RMB3 million, number of employees less than 300, and total assets less than RMB 50 million for the tax periods from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021. According to the tax abatement policy, the income tax rate was reduced to 5% for small businesses with a taxable income less than RMB1 million, the income tax rate was reduced to 10% for small businesses with taxable income from RMB 1 million to RMB3 million. From January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2027, income tax rate is 5% for small businesses with taxable income between RMB1 million to 3 million. The Group was qualified to receive the above tax abatement.

No current income tax was paid for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. A valuation allowance adjustment of $(10,835) was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted rates expected to apply to taxable income in which temporary differences are expected to be reversed or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income in the period of the enactment of the change.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Deferred tax assets were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | December 31,  | December 31,  |

The Company deconsolidated Mingda Tianjin from its consolidated financial statements in 2025. As a result, approximately $2.4 million of accumulated net operating losses in China was removed from the deferred tax asset calculation.

Reconciliation of the statutory income tax rate and the Company's effective income tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were as follows:

Aggregate undistributed earnings of the Company's subsidiaries, Mingda Tianjin, and Mingda Tianjin's subsidiaries located in the PRC that were available for distribution on December 31, 2025 and 2024 were considered to be indefinitely reinvested and accordingly, no provision has been made for the Chinese dividend withholding taxes that would be payable upon the distribution of those amounts to any entity within the Company that is outside of the PRC. The Company does not have any present plan to pay any cash dividends on its ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. It intends to retain most of its available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of its business. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had not declared any dividends.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no significant uncertain tax positions that qualified for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. As of December 31, 2025, income tax returns for the tax years ended December 31, 2021 through December 31, 2025 remained open for statutory examination by PRC tax authorities.

The uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities. Based on the outcome of any future examinations, or as a result of the expiration of statute of limitations for specific jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the related unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken regarding previously filed tax returns, might materially change from those recorded as liabilities for uncertain tax positions in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025. In addition, the outcome of these examinations may impact the valuation of certain deferred tax assets (such as net operating losses) in future periods. The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not anticipate any significant increases or decreases in its liability for unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

The management evaluates each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measures the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Group did not have any unrecognized uncertain tax positions. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not incur any interest and penalties related to potential underpaid income tax expenses.

#### NOTE 6 – ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND ACCRUED LIABILITIES

NOTE 7 – LEASES

On January 1, 2023, Mansions signed a lease agreement with MDJM UK to rent the "Fernie Castle," a property owned by MDJM UK, as the site of a hotel. The rent is approximately $241,000 (GBP182,500), VAT exclusive, per annum. The rent is paid monthly on the 25th day of the month. Mansions is responsible for its operation expenses, building maintenance and repair of the property rented. The lease has no definite termination date but can be terminated by either party by submitting one-month notice in advance without penalty. When the lease is terminated, the rented property should be returned to MDJM UK.

On January 1, 2023, Mansions signed a lease agreement with MDJM UK to rent the "Robin Hill," a property owned by MDJM UK, as the site of a hotel. The rent is approximately $199,000 (GBP151,000), VAT exclusive, per annum. The rent is paid monthly on the 25th day of the month. Mansions is responsible for its operation expenses, building maintenance and repair of the property rented. The lease has no definite termination date but can be terminated by either party by submitting one-month notice in advance without penalty. When the lease is terminated, the rented property should be returned to MDJM UK.

Mansions and MDJM UK are related companies under common control. ASC 842 requires entities to determine whether a related-party arrangement between entities under common control is a lease on the basis of the legally enforceable terms and conditions of the arrangement. The accounting for a lease depends on the enforceable rights and obligations of each party as a result of the contract. A lease is no longer considered enforceable when either party (i.e., lessee or lessor) can terminate the lease without permission from the other party and with no more than an insignificant penalty (ASC 842-10-55-23). The management believes that lease agreements between Mansions and MDJM UK are not legally enforceable since both Mansions and MDJM UK are under common control, and the lease can be terminated at any time with the needs of business without any penalty. Therefore, the Company did not apply the ASC 842 lessee and lessor accounting to the leases between Mansions and MDJM UK.

All related party rental income and expenses have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

The Group will lease temporary office spaces used for ongoing projects based on the needs. These leases are normally with terms of 12 months or less, and an option of renewing. Due to the temporary nature of these office spaces, the Group typically only includes the initial lease term in its assessment of a lease arrangement. Options to extend a lease are not included in the Group's assessment unless there is reasonable certainty that the Group will renew the lease. The Group elected not to recognize on the balance sheet for leases with terms of 12 months or less. The lease expense recognized for such leases is on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. Such operating lease expenses amounted to $0, $0, and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

NOTE 8 – WARRANT LIABILITIES

The Company accounts for its outstanding September 2024 Series A Warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet due to their derivative characteristics. These warrants are measured at fair value upon issuance and are subsequently remeasured at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations. The fair value of the warrant liability is based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of the warrant liabilities was $333,657, which is presented as a current liability on the balance sheet. The September 2024 Series A Warrants are set to expire on March 20, 2028.

Private Placement – 2024

On September 18, 2024, the Company completed a private placement with twelve investors, issuing a total of 3,112 units at an offering price of $787.50 per unit, for total gross proceeds of approximately $2.45 million (the "Offering 2024"). Each unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.875 per share (the "Ordinary Share"), one Series A warrant (the "September 2024 Series A Warrant"), and one Series B warrant (the "September 2024 Series B Warrant").

The September 2024 Series A Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $1,181.25 per share, subject to downward adjustment to match the latest issuance price in the event of a dilutive issuance. The September 2024 Series B Warrant is a compensatory warrant, designed to protect investors against potential share price declines. If the Company's share price falls below the offering price, the September 2024 Series B Warrant allows the investor to receive additional Ordinary Shares such that the total number of shares issued is equal to the original investment amount divided by the lower of: (i) 90% of the lowest trading price during any ten-day period, or (ii) a floor price of $189.00 per share (collectively, the "Purchaser Warrants"). The Purchaser Warrants are immediately exercisable upon issuance and expire three years and six months from the issuance date.

Classification of September 2024 Series A Warrants and September 2024 Series B Warrants as Liabilities

According to ASC 815-40-25, a financial instrument is classified as equity if it meets the following criteria: 1. Settlement in Issuer's Own Shares: The instrument must be settled solely by delivering a fixed number of shares; and. 2.Fixed-for-Fixed Rule: The instrument must have a fixed exercise price and entitles the holder to a fixed number of shares.

September 2024 Series A Warrants have the following key characteristics:

● Downward Adjustment Mechanism: The exercise price adjusts for future dilutive issuances.

● Floor Price: $189.00 per share, which matches the floor price of the September 2024 Series B Warrants.

● Dilution of Units: The number of September 2024 Series A Warrants increased from 3,112 to 19,446 due to the downward adjustment of the exercise price.

Therefore, the September 2024 Series A Warrants likely fail to meet the fixed-for-fixed criterion under ASC 815-40 and should be classified as liabilities rather than equity. Additionally, September 2024 Series A Warrants with downward pricing adjustments linked to future events are treated as derivatives.

September 2024 Series B Warrants have the following key characteristics:

● Exercise Price Adjustment: September 2024 Series B Warrants do not have a fixed exercise price; instead, they include a reset mechanism based on the lower of 90% of the lowest trading price over a specified period or a floor price of $189.00 per share.

● Compensatory Nature: September 2024 Series B Warrants are compensatory in nature, designed to provide additional shares to investors if the share price declines below the offering price.

● Dilution Protection: The warrants protect investors from dilution by issuing additional shares when the market price falls.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Therefore, the September 2024 Series B Warrants likely fail to meet the fixed-for-fixed criterion under ASC 815-40 and should be classified as liabilities rather than equity. Additionally, September 2024 Series B Warrants with downward pricing adjustments linked to future events are treated as derivatives.

Fair Value Measurements of Warrant Liabilities

Both September 2024 Series A Warrants and September 2024 Series B Warrants are classified as liabilities or derivatives and must be measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 815-10-45. The fair value measurement process involves the following steps:

● Initial Measurement: The September 2024 Series A Warrants and September 2024 Series B Warrants are measured at fair value at the time of issuance.

● Subsequent Measurement: The fair value of the September 2024 Series A Warrants and September 2024 Series B Warrants is re-measured at each reporting date.

● Changes in Fair Value: Any changes in fair value are recognized in earnings on the income statement for the relevant reporting period.

● Derivative Impact: As derivatives, the September 2024 Series A Warrants and September 2024 Series B Warrants require ongoing fair value adjustments based on stock price changes and other relevant factors. This remeasurement process is essential for capturing the financial impact of the warrants' reset and adjustment features.

The Company utilized the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the warrants. The significant assumptions and inputs applied in the remeasurement as of December 31, 2025 are summarized below:

● Expected Volatility: 121.37% , based on the historical volatility of the Company's closing stock price since inception.

● Risk-Free Interest Rate: 3.375% , derived from the yield on three-year U.S. Treasury notes.

● Exercise Price: $189.00 , which is the floor price established in the warrant agreements.

● Term: 2.167 years (26 months), reflecting the contractual life of the warrants.

These inputs are critical in determining the fair value of the warrants and are reassessed at each reporting date to ensure accuracy and compliance with ASC 815 requirements. The following table provides a summary of the assessment for September 2024 Series A Warrants and September 2024 Series B Warrants.

Exercise of September 2024 Series A Warrants – 2025

In February 2025, investors exercised 1,715 September 2024 Series A Warrants at an exercise price of $189.00 per warrant. The Company received cash proceeds of $324,000, which were recorded in equity. In connection with the exercise, the warrant liability was reduced by $126,180, with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital, based on a fair market value of $73.61 per warrant.

#### NOTE 9 – SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Ordinary Shares

The Company was originally authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.001 per share at inception. At an extraordinary general meeting held on April 28, 2025, the shareholders approved a share consolidation, pursuant to which each of the Company's 50,000,000 authorized ordinary shares of $0.001 par value (including all issued and unissued shares) was consolidated on a 25-for-1 basis. As a result, the Company's authorized share capital was reduced to 2,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.025 per share. All share and per-share amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the share consolidation.

On October 20, 2025, the shareholders approved a resolution to re-designate the Company's 2,000,000 authorized shares into (i) 1,592,000 Class A ordinary shares with a par value of $0.025 per share and (ii) 408,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $0.025 per share.

On the same date, the shareholders further approved an increase in the Company's authorized share capital from 2,000,000 shares to 10,000,000,000 shares, comprising (i) 9,999,592,000 Class A ordinary shares with a par value of $0.025 per share and (ii) 408,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $0.025 per share.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

On January 22, 2026, at the Company's extraordinary general meeting, the shareholders of the Company passed the resolution to authorize that in the event that the closing bid price per listed share of the Company on the Nasdaq Capital Market falls below US$1.00, each of the 10,000,000,000 authorized ordinary shares in the Company of US$0.025 par value (including all issued ordinary shares and any unissued ordinary shares) be consolidated at the consolidation ratio and effective time as the board of directors may determine at their sole discretion, provided that the consolidation ratio shall be not less than 2:1 and not more than 50:1, with such consolidated shares having the same rights and being subject to the same restrictions as set out in the Articles. On February 19, 2026, the board of directors of the Company approved a resolution to effect a 35-for-1 consolidation of its ordinary shares. Pursuant to the consolidation, each 35 authorized ordinary shares with a par value of $0.025 per share (including all issued and unissued shares) were combined into one ordinary share. As a result, the Company's authorized share capital was reduced from 10,000,000,000 ordinary shares of $0.025 par value each to 285,714,286 ordinary shares of $0.875 par value each, having such rights and subject to such restrictions as set forth in the Articles. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the share consolidation.

The table below presents the Company's ordinary shares on a retroactively adjusted basis, reflecting the 25:1 share consolidation and the subsequent 35:1 share consolidation.

On September 18, 2024, the Company completed the Offering 2024, wherein a total of 3,112 units were issued at an offering price of $787.50 per unit, for a total purchase price of approximately $2.45 million. Each unit includes one ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.875, one September 2024 Series A Warrant to purchase one Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $1,181.25 per share, and one September 2024 Series B Warrant to purchase such number of Ordinary Shares as shall be determined on the Reset Date, as defined therein. The Purchaser Warrants are immediately exercisable on the date of issuance, expire on the three year and six month anniversary of the date of issuance, and have certain downward pricing adjustment mechanisms, including with respect to any subsequent equity sale that is deemed to be a dilutive issuance and a reset on the Reset Date (as defined in the Purchaser Warrants), in which case the Purchaser Warrants will be subject to a floor price of $189.00 per share, as set forth in the Purchaser Warrants.

The Company received net cash proceeds of approximately $2.17 million (after deducting the placement agent fee and expenses of the Offering). The Company intends to use the net cash proceeds from the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.

From October 31, 2024 to November 7, 2024, the investors fully exercised their September 2024 Series B Warrants, resulting in the issuance of a total of 9,781 Ordinary Shares by the Company. The Company received cash proceeds of $8,558, representing the aggregate par value of the shares issued.

The exercise price of September 2024 Series A Warrants was adjusted downward from the original $1,181.25 per share to $189.00 per share following the exercise of the September 2024 Series B Warrants. Consequently, the total number of September 2024 Series A Warrants increased from 3,112 to 19,446 units. Between November 7, 2024, and December 18, 2024, four investors exercised a total of 1,188 September 2024 Series A Warrants, generating cash proceeds of $224,400 for the Company. As of December 31, 2024, 18,258 September 2024 Series A Warrants remained outstanding, with a fair value of $1,424,932 recorded as a current liability.

In February 2025, investors exercised 1,715 September 2024 Series A Warrants at an exercise price of $189.00 per warrant. The Company received cash proceeds of $324,000, which were recorded in equity. As of December 31, 2025, 16,543 September 2024 Series A Warrants remained outstanding, with a fair value of $333,657 recorded as a current liability (see Note: Warrant Liabilities).

Reclassification of Prior Year Financial Statement Item

The Company identified and corrected a classification matter related to prior periods. To deconsolidate Mingda Tianjin Chengdu Branch for the year ended December 31, 2024, $141,225 of accumulated deficit and $141,225 of accumulated other comprehensive loss were erroneously offset against each other and not separately removed from the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders' equity. As a result, accumulated deficit was previously understated by $141,225, and accumulated other comprehensive loss was previously overstated by the same amount. This classification error had no impact on total shareholders' equity, net income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), or cash flows for any period presented. Correction of the classification also does not impact total shareholders' equity, net income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), or cash flows for any period presented. Management believes this reclassification enhances the accuracy and comparability of the Company's financial statements, and, consistent with SEC SAB 108 and SAB 99, assessed the error as immaterial under both the rollover (income statement) and iron curtain (balance sheet) methods; therefore, restatement of prior period financial statements was not required.

#### NOTE 10 – STATUTORY RESERVE
Pursuant to the laws applicable to the PRC, PRC entities must make appropriations from after-tax profit to the non-distributable "statutory surplus reserve fund." Subject to certain cumulative limits, the "statutory surplus reserve fund" requires annual appropriations of 10% of after-tax profit until the aggregated appropriations reach 50% of the registered capital (as determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the PRC at each year-end). The statutory surplus reserve fund is non-discretionary other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years' losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining statutory surplus reserve balance after such issuance is not less than 25% of the registered capital before the conversion. The statutory reserve of Mingda Tianjin amounted to $327,140 as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

The Company deconsolidated Mingda Tianjin from its consolidated financial statements on March 5, 2025. As a result, a statutory reserve of $327,140 was eliminated from equity in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

#### NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
New Businesses and New Market Risk

The Company has shifted its focus to the UK and other non-PRC markets. In August 2022, the Company purchased Fernie Castle, a property located in Scotland, with plans to remodel it into a multi-functional cultural venue featuring a fine dining restaurant, hotel, wedding event spaces, and gardens. In December 2022, the Company acquired a second property in Torquay, England (the "Robin Hill Property"), with plans to remodel and operate it as a hotel with restaurant facilities. Fernie Castle is currently under renovation, while the Robin Hill Property is open to the public.

To achieve these goals, the Company needs to secure experts and skilled workers from the local UK market and obtain long-term financial support. However, there is no guarantee that these new ventures will be profitable in the short to medium term, nor that the Company will have sustainable financial resources to support long-term operations. Additionally, the continuous increase in energy costs, labor shortages in the UK, and the ongoing war in Ukraine and Iran are expected to have negative impacts on the Company's operations in the UK.

In addition, the Company is currently executing a strategic transformation to shift its business focus toward developing and monetizing a global cultural IP ecosystem. This new strategy integrates content creation and cultural tourism by converting Scotland's Fernie Castle into an immersive Animation Art Museum. The success of the cultural IP ecosystem depends fundamentally on the Company's ability to create and monetize original content rooted in Eastern culture that achieves significant commercial success and resonates with global audiences. However, there is no guarantee that the Company will successfully develop, commercialize, or profit from this strategy.

Legal Proceeding

Except for the following disclosure, the Company is currently not a party to any litigation of which, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition.

The Group will file a civil complaint in local district court if there is a dispute on accounts receivable with customers. Historically, the Group has won the civil complaint and received the amounts awarded by court.

The Company initiated legal proceedings against Chengdu TEDA New City in the People's Court of Dujiangyan City, Sichuan Province, on January 9, 2023, for breach of contract and unpaid service fees totaling approximately $261,000 (RMB 1,872,419). On March 28, 2023, the court ruled in favor of the Company, ordering Chengdu TEDA to pay the full claimed amount within 10 days. The Company received a partial payment of $126,000 (RMB 907,662) on September 1, 2023. As of December 31, 2024, the remaining balance from this vendor was still outstanding. Given the deterioration of the real estate market in China, management has determined that the Company is unlikely to recover the remaining balance. Consequently, a 100% CECL rate has been applied.

Service Agreement

On January 30, 2024, MDJM, through its subsidiary FCC, entered into a service agreement with a third-party consultant, who is a scholar ("Scholar"). Under the terms of the agreement, the Scholar will utilize his cultural and academic expertise to provide professional advisory services for the Company's Ancient Eastern Garden project at the Fernie Castle. As compensation, the Company will issue its ordinary shares to the Scholar in the following stages: (i) 27 shares (representing 0.2% of MDJM's equity based on a total of 13,344 shares outstanding at December 31, 2023) upon signing the agreement; (ii) 27 shares upon completion of the design, planning, and construction report for the Ancient Eastern Garden project at Fernie Castle, and commencement of construction; (iii) 27 shares within one year following the second issuance of shares; and (iv) 27 shares upon completion of the overall development of the Fernie Castle project and the official operation of the hotel and Eastern Garden. This agreement is intended to be long-term. If the Company wishes to terminate the agreement, it must provide the Scholar with a three-month notice. On May 14, 2024, the Company issued 27 shares to the Scholar as the agreed-upon first-stage compensation.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

On August 5, 2024, MDJM, through its subsidiary FCC, entered into a service agreement with a second scholar ("Scholar II"), who will also act as third-party consultant to the Company. Under the terms of the agreement, Scholar II will also utilize his cultural and academic expertise to provide professional advisory services for the Company's Ancient Eastern Garden project at the Fernie Castle. As compensation, the Company will issue its ordinary shares to Scholar II in the following stages: (i) 27 shares (representing 0.2% of MDJM's equity based on a total of 13,344 shares outstanding at December 31, 2023) upon signing the agreement; (ii) 27 shares upon completion of the design, planning, and construction report for the Ancient Eastern Garden project at Fernie Castle, and commencement of construction; (iii) 27 shares within one year following the second issuance of shares; and (iv) 27 shares upon completion of the overall development of the Fernie Castle project and the official operation of the hotel and Eastern Garden. This agreement is intended to be long-term. If the Company wishes to terminate the agreement, it must provide Scholar II with a three-month notice. On August 26, 2024, the Company issued 27 shares to Scholar II as the agreed-upon first-stage compensation.

*Ordinary Shares*

Our authorized share capital is $250,000,000 divided into 285,714,286 Ordinary Shares comprising of (i) 285,702,629 Class A Ordinary Shares of par value $0.875 each and (ii) 11,657 Class B Ordinary Shares of par value $0.875 each. All of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares are fully paid and non-assessable. Our Ordinary Shares are issued in registered form. Our shareholders who are non-residents of the Cayman Islands may freely hold and vote their Ordinary Shares.

*Dividends*

Subject to the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act and any rights attaching to any class or classes of shares and in accordance with our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the directors may declare dividends or distributions out of our funds which are lawfully available for that purpose.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the company's shareholders may, by ordinary resolution, declare dividends but no such dividend shall exceed the amount recommended by the directors.

Subject to the requirements of the Cayman Companies Act regarding the application of a company's share premium account and with the sanction of an ordinary resolution, dividends may also be declared and paid out of any share premium account. The directors when paying dividends to shareholders may make such payment either in cash or in specie.

Unless provided by the rights attached to a share, no dividend shall bear interest.

*Voting Rights*

------

Subject to any rights or restrictions as to voting attached to any shares, unless any share carries special voting rights, on a show of hands every shareholder who is present in person and every person representing a shareholder by proxy shall have one vote. On a poll, every shareholder who is present in person and every person representing a shareholder by proxy shall have one vote for each share of which he or the person represented by proxy is the holder. In addition, all shareholders holding shares of a particular class are entitled to vote at a meeting of the holders of that class of shares. Votes may be given either personally or by proxy.

Each Class A Ordinary Share entitles the holder thereof to one vote on all matters subject to the vote at general meetings of our company, voting together as one class. Each Class B Ordinary Shares entitles the holder thereof to 50 votes on all matters subject to the vote at general meetings of our company.

*Conversion Rights*

Class A Ordinary Shares will not be convertible into shares of any other class and the Class B Ordinary Shares will be convertible into Class A Ordinary Shares at any time after issuance at the option of the holder. Each one Class B Ordinary Share will be Convertible into one Class A Ordinary Share.

*Calls on shares and forfeiture of Shares*

Subject to the terms of allotment, the directors may make calls on the shareholders in respect of any monies unpaid on their shares including any premium and each shareholder shall (subject to receiving at least fourteen clear days' notice specifying when and where payment is to be made), 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. If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the person from whom it is due and payable shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at the rate fixed by the terms of allotment of the share or in the notice of the call or if no rate is fixed, at the rate of ten per cent. per annum. The directors may, at their discretion, waive payment of the interest wholly or in part.

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 us by the shareholder or the shareholder's estate:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) either alone or jointly with any other person, whether or not that other person is a shareholder; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) whether or not those monies are presently payable.

At any time the directors may declare any share to be wholly or partly exempt from the calls and forfeiture provisions of the articles.

We may sell, in such manner as the directors may determine, any share on which the sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable, if due notice that such sum is payable has been given (as prescribed by the articles) and, within fourteen days of the date on which the notice is deemed to be given under the articles, such notice has not been complied with.

*Untraceable Shareholder*

Subject to the Cayman Companies Act, we may sell, subject to certain conditions, any share of a shareholder who cannot be traced if, during a period of twelve years, at least three cash dividends in respect of the share have become payable and no such dividend during that period has been claimed.

*Forfeiture or surrender of shares*

If a shareholder fails to pay any call the directors may give to such shareholder not less than fourteen clear days' notice requiring payment and specifying the amount unpaid including any interest which may have accrued, any expenses

which have been incurred by us due to that person's default and the place where payment is to be made. The notice shall also contain a warning that if the notice is not complied with, the shares in respect of which the call is made will be liable to be forfeited.

If such notice is not complied with, the directors may, before the payment required by the notice has been received, resolve that any share the subject of that notice be forfeited (which forfeiture shall include all dividends or other monies payable in respect of the forfeited share and not paid before such forfeiture).

A forfeited share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the directors determine and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the directors think fit.

A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a shareholder in respect of the forfeited shares, but shall, notwithstanding such forfeit, 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, together with all expenses and interest from the date of forfeiture or surrender until payment, but his liability shall cease if and when we receive payment in full of the unpaid amount.

A declaration, whether statutory or under oath, made by a director or the secretary shall be conclusive evidence that the person making the declaration is a director or secretary of us and that the particular shares have been forfeited or surrendered on a particular date.

------

Subject to the execution of an instrument of transfer, if necessary, the declaration shall constitute good title to the shares.

*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 or capital contributed or such other amounts required by the Cayman Companies Act.

*Redemption and purchase of own shares*

Subject to the Cayman Companies Act and any rights for the time being conferred on the shareholders holding a particular class of shares, we may by our directors:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) issue shares that are to be redeemed or liable to be redeemed, at our option or the shareholder holding those redeemable shares, on the terms and in the manner its directors determine before the issue of those shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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 our option on the terms and in the manner which the directors determine at the time of such variation; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) purchase all or any of our own shares of any class including any redeemable shares on the terms and in the manner which the directors determine at the time of such purchase.

We may make a payment in respect of the redemption or purchase of its own shares in any manner authorized by the Cayman Companies Act, including out of any combination of capital, our profits and the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares.

When making a payment in respect of the redemption or purchase of shares, the directors may make the payment in cash or in specie (or partly in one and partly in the other) if so authorized by the terms of the allotment of those shares or by the terms applying to those shares, or otherwise by agreement with the shareholder holding those shares.

*Transfer of Shares*

Subject to the restrictions contained in our articles, any of our shareholders may transfer all or any of his or her Ordinary Shares by an instrument of transfer in any usual or common form or any other form approved by our board of directors, executed by or on behalf of the transferor (and, if in respect of a nil or partly paid up share, or if so required by our directors, by or on behalf of the transferee).

Our board of directors may, in its absolute discretion, decline to register any transfer of any Ordinary Share that has not been fully paid up or is subject to a company lien. Our board of directors may also decline to register any transfer of any Ordinary Share unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the instrument of transfer is lodged with us, accompanied by the certificate for the Ordinary 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;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of Ordinary Shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the instrument of transfer is properly stamped, if required;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the Ordinary Share transferred is fully paid and free of any lien in favor of us;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) any fee related to the transfer has been paid to us; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) the transfer is not to more than four joint holders.

If our directors refuse to register a transfer, they are required, within three months after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged, to send to each of the transferor and the transferee notice of such refusal.

The registration of transfers may, on 14 calendar days' notice being given by advertisement in such one or more newspapers or by electronic means, be suspended and our register of members closed at such times and for such periods as our board of directors may from time to time determine. However, the registration of transfers may not be suspended, and the register may not be closed, for more than 30 calendar days in any year.

*Inspection of Books and Records*

Holders of our 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.

*Capitalization of Profits*

The directors may resolve to capitalize:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any part of our profits not required for paying any preferential dividend (whether or not those profits are available for

------

distribution); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any sum standing to the credit of our 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.

*Liquidation Rights*

If we are wound up, the shareholders may, subject to the articles and any other sanction required by the Cayman Companies Act, pass a special resolution allowing the liquidator to do either or both of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) to divide in specie among the shareholders the whole or any part of our assets and, for that purpose, to value any assets and to determine how the division shall be carried out as between the shareholders or different classes of shareholders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) to vest the whole or any part of the assets in trustees for the benefit of shareholders and those liable to contribute to the winding up.

The directors have the authority to present a petition for our winding up to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands on our behalf without the sanction of a resolution passed at a general meeting.

***Requirements to Change the Rights of Holders of Ordinary Shares (Item 10.B.4 of Form 20-F)***

*Variations 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.

***Limitations on the Rights to Own Ordinary Shares (Item 10.B.6 of Form 20-F)***

There are no limitations under the Cayman Companies Act or imposed by our second amended and restated memorandum and articles on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on our shares.

***Provisions Affecting Any Change of Control (Item 10.B.7 of Form 20-F)***

*Anti-Takeover Provisions*

Some provisions of our second amended and restated memorandum and 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:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· 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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· provisions that restrict the ability of our shareholders to call meetings and to propose special matters for consideration at shareholder meetings.

***Ownership Threshold (Item 10.B.8 of Form 20-F)***

There are no provisions under the Cayman Companies Act or under our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association that govern the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed.

***Differences Between the Law of Different Jurisdictions (Item 10.B.9 of Form 20-F)***

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.

*Mergers and Similar Arrangements*

The Cayman Islands 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 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, provided that the arrangement is approved by a majority in number of each class of shareholders and creditors with whom the arrangement is to be made, and who must, in addition, represent three-fourths in value of each such class of shareholders or creditors, as the case may be, that are present and voting either in person or by proxy at a meeting, or meetings, convened for that purpose. 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:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the statutory provisions as to the required majority vote have been met;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the arrangement is not one that would more properly be sanctioned under some other provision of the Cayman Islands Companies Act.

When a takeover 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 takeover 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.

*Shareholders' Suits*

In principle, we will normally be the proper plaintiff to sue for a wrong done to us as a company and as a general rule, a derivative action may not be brought by a minority shareholder. However, based on English law 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:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) an act which is illegal or ultra vires with respect to the company and is therefore incapable of ratification by the shareholders;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) an act which constitutes a "fraud on the minority" where the wrongdoers are themselves in control of the company.

*Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitation of Liability*

The Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company's articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, 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. Our second amended and restated articles of association provide to the extent permitted by law, we shall indemnify each existing or former secretary, director (including alternate director), and any of our other officers (including an investment adviser or an administrator or liquidator) and their personal representatives against:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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 our business or affairs or in the execution or discharge of the existing or former director (including alternate director), secretary's or officer's duties, powers, authorities or discretions; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) without limitation to paragraph (a) 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 us or our 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.

To the extent permitted by law, we may make a payment, or agree to make a payment, whether by way of advance, loan or otherwise, for any legal costs incurred by an existing or former director (including alternate director), secretary or any of our officers in respect of any matter identified in above on condition that the director (including alternate director), secretary or officer must repay the amount paid by us to the extent that it is ultimately found not liable to indemnify the director (including alternate director), the secretary or that officer for those legal costs.

This standard of conduct is generally the same as permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law for a Delaware corporation. In addition, we intend to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers that will provide such persons with additional indemnification beyond that provided in our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling us under 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 of 1933, as amended, and is therefore unenforceable.

*Anti-Takeover Provisions in Our Articles*

Some provisions of our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company or management that shareholders may consider favorable, including provisions that authorize our board of directors to issue shares at such times and on such terms and conditions as the board of directors may decide without any further vote or action by our shareholders.

Under the Cayman Companies Act, our directors may only exercise the rights and powers granted to them under our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association for what they believe in good faith to be in the best interests of our company and for a proper purpose.

*Directors' Fiduciary Duties*

Under Delaware corporate law, a director of a Delaware corporation has a fiduciary duty to the corporation and its shareholders. This duty has two components: the duty of care and the duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires that a director act in good faith, with the care that an ordinarily prudent person would exercise under similar circumstances. Under this duty, a director must inform himself of, and disclose to shareholders, all material information reasonably available regarding a significant transaction. The duty of loyalty requires that a director act in a manner he or she reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation. He or she must not use his or her corporate position for personal gain or advantage. This duty prohibits self-dealing by a director and mandates that the best interests of the corporation and its shareholders take precedence over any interest possessed by a director, officer or controlling shareholder and not shared by the shareholders generally. In general, actions of a director are presumed to have been made on an informed basis, in good faith and in the honest belief that the action taken was in the best interests of the corporation. However, this presumption may be rebutted by evidence of a breach of one of the fiduciary duties. Should such evidence be presented concerning a

------

transaction by a director, a director must prove the procedural fairness of the transaction, and that the transaction was of fair value to the corporation.

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. A Cayman Islands director's fiduciary duties are not codified, however the courts of the Cayman Islands have held that a director owes the following fiduciary duties (a) a duty to act in what the director bona fide considers to be in the best interests of the company, (b) a duty to exercise their powers for the purposes they were conferred, (c) a duty to avoid fettering his or her discretion in the future, and (d) a duty to avoid conflicts of interest and of duty. The common law duties owed by a director are those to act with skill, care and diligence 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, also, to act with the skill, care and diligence in keeping with a standard of care commensurate with any particular skill they have which enables them to meet a higher standard than a director without those skills. In fulfilling their duty of care to us, our directors must ensure compliance with our amended articles of association, as amended and restated from time to time. We have the right to seek damages if a duty owed by any of our directors is breached.

*Shareholder Proposals*

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a shareholder has the right to put any proposal before the annual meeting of shareholders, provided it complies with the notice provisions in the governing documents. The Delaware General Corporation Law does not provide shareholders an express right to put any proposal before the annual meeting of shareholders, but in keeping with common law, Delaware corporations generally afford shareholders an opportunity to make proposals and nominations provided that they comply with the notice provisions in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws. A special meeting may be called by the board of directors or any other person authorized to do so in the governing documents, but shareholders may be precluded from calling special meetings.

The Cayman Islands 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 second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that general meetings shall 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 in accordance with the notice provisions in the Memorandum and Articles of Association, specifying the purpose of the meeting and signed by each of the shareholders making the requisition. If the directors do not convene such meeting for a date not later than twenty-one clear days' after the date of receipt of the written requisition, those shareholders who requested the meeting may convene the general meeting themselves within three months after the end of such period of twenty-one clear days in which case reasonable expenses incurred by them as a result of the directors failing to convene a meeting shall be reimbursed by us. Our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide no other right to put any proposals before annual general meetings or extraordinary general meetings. 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.

*Cumulative Voting*

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, cumulative voting for elections of directors is not permitted unless the corporation's certificate of incorporation specifically provides for it. Cumulative voting potentially facilitates the representation of minority shareholders on a board of directors since it permits the minority shareholder to cast all the votes to which the shareholder is entitled on a single director, which increases the shareholder's voting power with respect to electing such director. As permitted under the Cayman Companies Act, our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association do not provide for cumulative voting. As a result, our shareholders are not afforded any less protections or rights on this issue than shareholders of a Delaware corporation.

*Removal of Directors*

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a director of a corporation with a classified board may be removed only for cause with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Subject to the provisions of our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (which include the removal of a director by ordinary resolution), the office of a director may be terminated forthwith if (a) he is prohibited by the laws of the Cayman Islands from acting as a director, (b) he is made bankrupt or makes an arrangement or composition with his creditors generally, (c) he resigns his office by notice to us, (d) he only held office as a director for a fixed term and such term expires, (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, (f) he 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), (g) he is made subject to any law relating to mental health or incompetence, whether by court order or otherwise, or (h) without the consent of the other directors, he is absent from meetings of directors for continuous period of six months.

------

*Transactions with Interested Shareholders*

The Delaware General Corporation Law contains a business combination statute applicable to Delaware public corporations whereby, unless the corporation has specifically elected not to be governed by such statute by amendment to its certificate of incorporation or bylaws that is approved by its shareholders, it is prohibited from engaging in certain business combinations with an "interested shareholder" for three years following the date that such person becomes an interested shareholder. An interested shareholder generally is a person or a group who or which owns or owned 15% or more of the target's outstanding voting stock or who or which is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and owned 15% or more of the corporation's outstanding voting stock within the past three years. This has the effect of limiting the ability of a potential acquirer to make a two-tiered bid for the target in which all shareholders would not be treated equally. The statute does not apply if, among other things, prior to the date on which such shareholder becomes an interested shareholder, the board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested shareholder. This encourages any potential acquirer of a Delaware corporation to negotiate the terms of any acquisition transaction with the target's board of directors.

The Cayman Islands Companies Act has no comparable statute. As a result, we cannot avail ourselves of the types of protections afforded by the Delaware business combination statute. However, although the Cayman Islands Companies Act does not regulate transactions between a company and its significant shareholders, under Cayman Islands law such transactions must be entered into bona fide in the best interests of the company and for a proper corporate purpose and not with the effect of constituting a fraud on the minority shareholders.

*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 Islands Companies Act and our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the company may be wound up by a special resolution of our shareholders, or if the winding up is initiated by our board of directors, by either a special resolution of our members or, if our company is unable to pay its debts as they fall due, by an ordinary resolution of our members. In addition, a company may be wound up by an order of the courts of the Cayman Islands. The court has authority to order winding up in a number of specified circumstances including where it is, in the opinion of the court, just and equitable to do so.

*Variation of Rights of Shares*

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may vary the rights of a class of shares with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares of such class, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Under the Cayman Islands Companies Act and our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, if our share capital is divided into more than one class 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.

*Amendment of Governing Documents*

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation's certificate of incorporation may be amended only if adopted and declared advisable by the board of directors and approved by a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, and the bylaws may be amended with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote and may, if so provided in the certificate of incorporation, also be amended by the board of directors. Under the Cayman Islands Companies Act, our second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may only be amended by special resolution of our shareholders.

*Anti-money Laundering—Cayman Islands*

In order to comply with legislation or regulations aimed at the prevention of money laundering, we may be required to adopt and maintain anti-money laundering procedures, and may require subscribers to provide evidence to verify their identity. Where permitted, and subject to certain conditions, we may also delegate the maintenance of our anti-money laundering procedures (including the acquisition of due diligence information) to a suitable person.

We reserve the right to request such information as is necessary to verify the identity of a subscriber. In the event of delay or failure on the part of the subscriber in producing any information required for verification purposes, we may refuse to accept the application, in which case any funds received will be returned without interest to the account from which they were originally debited.

We also reserve the right to refuse to make any redemption payment to a shareholder if our directors or officers suspect or are advised that the payment of redemption proceeds to such shareholder might result in a breach of applicable anti-money laundering or other

------

laws or regulations by any person in any relevant jurisdiction, or if such refusal is considered necessary or appropriate to ensure our compliance with any such laws or regulations in any applicable jurisdiction.

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 Law (Revised) of the Cayman Islands) or the Financial Reporting Authority of the Cayman Islands, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Law (Revised), if the disclosure relates to criminal conduct or money laundering or (ii) to a police constable or a nominated officer (pursuant to the Terrorism Law (Revised) of the Cayman Islands) or the Financial Reporting Authority, pursuant to the Terrorism Law (Revised), 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.

***Changes in Capital (Item 10.B.10 of Form 20-F)***

Subject to the Cayman Companies Act, we may, by ordinary resolution:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) increase our share capital by new shares of the amount fixed by that ordinary resolution and with the attached rights, priorities and privileges set out in that ordinary resolution;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) consolidate and divide all or any of our share capital into shares of larger amount than our existing shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) convert all or any of our paid up shares into stock, and reconvert that stock into paid up shares of any denomination;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) cancel shares which, at the date of the passing of that ordinary 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 or, in the case of shares without nominal par value, diminish the number of shares into which our capital is divided.

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, subject to confirmation by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands on an application by the company for an order confirming such reduction, reduce our share capital in any way.

***Debt Securities (Item 12.A of Form 20-F)***

Not applicable.

***Warrants and Rights (Item 12.B of Form 20-F)***

Not applicable.

***Other Securities (Item 12.C of Form 20-F)***

Not applicable.

***Description of American Depositary Shares (Items 12.D.1 and 12.D.2 of Form 20-F)***
