An investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares involves significant risks. Below is a summary of material risks we face, organized under relevant headings. These risks are discussed more fully after this summary. You should carefully consider the risks below and after this summary before making an investment decision. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. Our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects could be materially and adversely affected by any of these risks.

***Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry***

● Our
 business is still in an early stage of growth. If our business does not continue to grow, or our aspirations to become a super mobility
 app do not materialize, grows slower than expected, fails to grow as large as expected, or fails to turn profitable, our business
 operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

● We
 face intense competition across the segments and in the market we serve.

● We
 may not be able to continue to raise sufficient capital or achieve or sustain profitability.

● Our
 ability to achieve profitability is dependent on our ability to reduce the amount of driver partner and consumer incentives we pay
 relative to the commissions and fees we receive for our services.

● Our
 business is subject to numerous legal and regulatory risks that could have an adverse impact on our business and prospects.

● Our
 brand and reputation are amongst our most important assets and are critical to the success of our business.

● If
 we fail to manage our growth effectively, our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations
 and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

● If
 we are required to reclassify driver partners as employees or otherwise, or if driver partners and/or employees unionize, there may
 be adverse business, financial, tax, legal and other consequences.

● If
 we are unable to continue to grow our base of platform users, including driver partners and consumers accessing our offerings, our
 value proposition for each constituent group could diminish, impacting our results of operations and prospects.

● Security,
 privacy, or data breaches involving sensitive, personal or confidential information could also expose us to liability under various
 laws and regulations, decrease trust in our platform, and increase the risk of litigation and governmental investigation.

● Improper,
 dangerous, illegal or otherwise inappropriate activity by consumers or driver partners or other third parties could harm our business
 and reputation and expose us to liability.

● We
 are subject to risks associated with strategic alliances and partnerships.

● We
 rely significantly on third-party cloud infrastructure services providers and any disruption of or interference with the use of our
 services could adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

● The
 proper uninterrupted functioning of our highly complex technology platform is essential to our business.

● Our
 business depends upon the interoperability of our mobile app and platform with different devices, operating systems and third-party
 software that we do not control.

● If
 we do not adequately protect our intellectual property rights, or if third parties claim that we are misappropriating the intellectual
 property of others, we may incur significant costs and our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results
 of operations and prospects may be adversely affected.

● We
 may not be able to make acquisitions or investments, or successfully integrate them into our business.

● Any
 failure by us or our third-party service providers to comply with applicable anti-money laundering or other related laws and regulations
 could damage our business operations, reputation, financial performance, financial condition, and results of operation, or subject
 us to other risks.

● We
 rely on our partnerships with financial institutions and other third parties for payment processing infrastructure and for the provision
 of services through our platform.

● Unfavorable
 media coverage could harm our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

● We
 rely on the Land Transport Authority of Singapore for the validity of certain licenses.

● We
 depend on talented, experienced and committed personnel, including engineers, to grow and operate our business, and if we are unable
 to recruit, train, motivate and retain qualified personnel, particularly in the technology sector, our business operations, financial
 performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

● Adverse
 litigation judgments or settlements resulting from legal proceedings in which we may be involved could expose us to monetary damages
 or limit the ability to operate our business.

● We
 track certain operating metrics with internal systems and tools and do not independently verify such metrics. Certain of our operating
 metrics are subject to inherent challenges in measurement, and any real or perceived inaccuracies in such metrics may adversely affect
 our business and reputation.

● Our
 use of open-source software (OSS) under restrictive licenses could: (i) adversely affect our ability to license and commercialize
 certain elements of our proprietary code based on the commercial terms of our choosing; (ii) result in a loss of our trade secrets
 or other intellectual property rights with respect to certain portions of our proprietary code; and (iii) subject us to litigation
 and other disputes.

● Increases
 in fuel, energy, and other costs could adversely affect us.

● We
 allow consumers to pay for rides through our platform using cash, which raises numerous operational and safety concerns.

● We
 have insurance coverage provided by third parties, and we are subject to the risk that this may be insufficient or that insurance
 providers may be unable to meet their obligations.

● We
 have plans to expand to other countries and are therefore subject to potential risks associated with operating and investing in these
 countries.

● Negative
 publicity, including those relating to any of our Directors, executive officers, shareholders of more than 5% of our Ordinary Shares,
 may adversely affect our share price.

● Natural
 events, wars, terrorist attacks and other acts of violence involving any of the countries in which we have plans to expand into in
 the future could adversely affect our operations.

 ****

***Risks Relating to Our Securities***

● An
 active trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares may not be established or, if established, may not continue and the trading
 price for our Class A Ordinary Shares may fluctuate significantly.

● We
 may not maintain the listing of our Class A Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American which could limit investors' ability to make
 transactions in our Class A Ordinary Shares and subject us to additional trading restrictions.

● The
 trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares may be volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors.

● If
 securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they adversely change their recommendations
 regarding our Class A Ordinary Shares, the market price for our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading volume could decline.

● Short
 selling may drive down the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

● There
 can be no assurance that we will not be a passive foreign investment company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which could result
 in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences for U.S. investors who own our securities.

● We
 are an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act and may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements.

● We
 are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the Exchange Act, and as such we are exempt from certain provisions applicable
 to United States domestic public companies.

● As
 an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate
 governance matters that differ significantly from NYSE American corporate governance listing standards.

● We
 have incurred and will continue to incur significantly increased costs and devote substantial management time as a
 result of the listing of our Class A Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American.

● You
 may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through U.S. courts may be limited, because
 we are incorporated under Cayman Islands law.

● We
 are exposed to risks arising from fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates.

● Future
 issuance of Shares by us and sale of Shares by our and/or by our existing shareholders may adversely affect the price of our Class
 A Ordinary Shares.

● Our
 dual-class voting structure 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.

● If
 securities or industry analysts do not publish or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, or if they adversely
 change their recommendations regarding our Class A Ordinary Shares, the market price for our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading
 volume could decline.

● The
 conversion of by the holders of Class B Ordinary Shares into Class A Ordinary Shares will result in a dilution of the percentage
 ownership of the existing holders of Class A Ordinary Shares within their class of Ordinary Shares.

● We
 may not be able to declare dividends in the future.

**Risks Related to our Business and Industry**

***Our business is still in an early stage of growth. If our business does not continue to grow, or our aspirations to become a super mobility app do not materialize, grows slower than expected, fails to grow as large as expected, or fails to turn profitable, our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.***

Although our business has grown since our inception in 2014, our business is still in a relatively early stage of growth. Therefore, there is no assurance that we will achieve and maintain growth and profitability across all our business segments. There is also no assurance that market acceptance of our offerings will continue to grow, or that new offerings will be accepted. In addition, our business could be impacted by macro-economic conditions and their effect on discretionary consumer spending, which in turn could impact consumer demand for offerings made available through our platform.

Our management believes that our growth is dependent on several factors, including our ability to:

● expand
 and diversify our mobility and quick commerce offerings, which include innovating in new areas and these often require us to make
 investments and absorb losses while we build scale;

● increase
 the scale of the driver partner base and increase consumer usage of our platform and the synergies within our ecosystem;

● optimize
 our cost efficiency;

● develop
 our super mobility app, the tools we provide our driver partners, along with our other technology and infrastructure;

● recruit
 and retain high quality talent;

● enhance
 our reputation and brand;

● ensure
 adequate safety and hygiene standards are established and maintained across our offerings;

● seek
 to form strategic partnerships, including with leading multinationals and global brands;

● manage
 our relationships with stakeholders and regulators in Singapore or other jurisdictions in the future, as well as the impact of existing
 and evolving regulations;

● obtain
 and maintain licenses and regulatory approvals that may be required for our offerings; and

● compete
 effectively with our competitors.

We may not successfully accomplish any of these objectives.

In addition, achieving profitability will require us, for example, to continue to grow and scale our business, manage promotion and incentive spending, improve monetization, reduce marketing and other spending and increase consumer spending.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to grow and manage each of our segments or our super mobility app platform or achieve or maintain profitability. Our success will depend substantially on our ability to develop appropriate strategies and plans, including our sales and marketing efforts, and the ability to implement such plans effectively. If driver partners and consumers accessing offerings on our platform do not perceive us as beneficial, or choose not to utilize us, the market for our business may not further develop, may develop slower than expected, or may not achieve the growth potential or profitability we expect, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We face intense competition across the segments and in the market we serve.***

We face competition in each of our segments and in the Singapore market. The segments and market in which we operate are intensely competitive and characterized by shifting user preferences and introductions of new services and offerings. We compete for both driver partners and consumers accessing offerings through our platform.

Our competitors may operate in single or multiple segments and in a single market or regionally across multiple markets. These competitors may be well-established or new entrants and focused on providing low-cost alternatives or higher quality offerings, or any combination thereof, which may adversely affect our market share. New competitors may include established players with existing businesses in other segments or markets that expand to compete in our segments or market. Our competitors in Singapore may enjoy competitive advantages such as reputational advantages, better brand recognition, longer operating histories, larger marketing budgets, and more supportive regulatory regimes and may also offer discounted services, driver partners incentives, consumer incentives, discounts or promotions, innovative services and offerings, or alternative pricing models. From time-to-time, competitive factors have caused, and may continue to cause, us to adjust prices or fees and commissions and increase driver partner or consumer incentives and marketing expenses, which has impacted and could continue to impact our revenues and costs. In addition, some of our competitors may consolidate to expand their market position and capabilities, establish cooperative or strategic relationships amongst themselves or with third parties that may further enhance their resources and offerings.

In our segments and market, the barriers to entry are low and driver partners and consumers may choose alternative platforms or services. Our competitors may adopt certain of our services and/or features or may adopt innovations that consumers or driver partners value more highly than ours, which could render the offerings on our platform less attractive or reduce our ability to differentiate our offerings. The driver partners may shift to the platform with the highest earning potential or highest volume of work and lowest commissions. Driver partners and consumers may shift to the platform that otherwise provides them with the best opportunities. Consumers may access driver services through the lowest-cost or highest-quality provider or platform or a provider or platform that provides better choices or a more convenient technology. With respect to our platform, driver partners and consumers may shift to other platforms based on overall user experience and convenience, tools to enhance profitability, integration with mobile and networking applications, quality of mobile applications, and convenience of payment settlement services.

In our quick commerce segment, we face competition from on-demand, last-mile package delivery players such as Lalamove, GrabExpress and Pickupp. In addition, many merchants may own and operate their own delivery fleets, bypassing the need for our on-demand delivery service. For example, supermarkets, grocery, and convenience stores are able to utilize their in-house delivery services which are owned by them.

Any failure to successfully compete or adapt quickly to the changing market conditions and trends could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We may not be able to continue to raise sufficient capital or achieve or sustain profitability.***

We invest in our business, including, among others, (i) expanding the quick commerce and mobility offerings on our platform; (ii) increasing the scale of the driver partner base and consumer base accessing offerings on our platform; (iii) developing and enhancing our mobile app, (iv) enhancing the tools that we provide for the driver partners, our payments network and other technology and infrastructure and (v) recruiting quality talent. We also have plans to develop our business across countries, where each country has different infrastructure, regulations, systems, and user expectations, with a strategy that involves a hyperlocal approach to our operations, all of which require more investment than if we only operated in one country. Our offerings require us to make investments and develop scale in order to achieve profitability. To be competitive, generate scale and increase liquidity, from time to time we will adjust commissions and offer driver partners and consumers incentives, which also reduces our revenue. We will continue to require significant capital investment to support and grow our business. Issuances of equity or convertible debt securities could cause existing shareholders to suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities issued may have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of existing shareholders. Debt financing could contain restrictive covenants relating to financial and operational matters including restrictions on the ability to incur additional secured or unsecured indebtedness that may make it more difficult to obtain additional capital with which to pursue business opportunities. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms, if at all.

Any failure to increase our revenue, manage the increase in our operating expenses, continue to raise capital or manage our liquidity could prevent us from achieving or maintaining profitability, and could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***Our ability to achieve profitability is dependent on our ability to reduce the amount of driver partner and consumer incentives we pay relative to the commissions and fees we receive for our services.***

Our business model includes payment of incentives to our driver partners (which are typically awarded to our driver partners when they complete a certain number of trips within a certain period) and consumers ('cashback' or bonuses by way of RydeCoins are awarded to consumers as part of the promotions or marketing campaigns, typically when they complete a trip or multiple trips). Our ability to increase our revenues and achieve profitability is therefore dependent on our ability to effectively use incentives to encourage the use of our platform and over time to reduce the amount of incentives we pay to both our driver partners and consumers of our services relative to the amount of commissions and fees we receive for our services. If we are unable to reduce the amount of incentives, we pay overtime relative to the commissions and fees we receive, it will likely impact our ability to increase our revenues, raise capital and achieve profitability, any or all of which could prevent us from continuing as a going concern or maintaining or increasing profitability. In addition, given our use of incentives to encourage use of our platform, future decreases in the use of incentives could also result in decreased growth in the number of users and driver partners or an overall decrease in users and driver partners and decreases in our revenues, which could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***Our business is subject to numerous legal and regulatory risks that could have an adverse impact on our business and prospects.***

We operate across the mobility and quick commerce segments in Singapore, in which we are subject to various regulations.

The focus areas of regulatory risk that we are exposed to include, among others: (i) evolution of laws and regulations applicable to mobility and quick commerce offerings, (ii) various forms of data regulation such as data privacy, data portability, cybersecurity and advertising or marketing, (iii) gig economy regulations, (iv) anti-trust regulations, (v) economic regulations such as price, supply regulation, safety, health and environment regulations, (vi) foreign ownership restrictions, and (vii) regulations regarding the provision of online services, including with respect to the internet and mobile devices.

In addition, we may not be able to obtain all the licenses, permits and approvals that may be necessary to provide our offerings and those we plan to offer. As the segments we operate in are relatively new and disruptive in our market, the relevant laws and regulations are often evolving. For this reason, we cannot be certain that we will be able to maintain the licenses and approvals that we have previously obtained, or that once they expire, we will be able to renew them. We cannot assure you that our interpretations of the rules and our exemptions have always been or will be consistent with that of local regulators. As we expand our businesses, we may be required to obtain new licenses and will be subject to additional laws and regulations in the markets we plan to operate in.

Our business is subject to regulations from various regulators within the jurisdiction we operate in, and such regulators may not always act in concert. As a result, we may be subject to requirements which separately may not be materially adverse to us but when taken together could have a material impact on us.

Segments of our businesses that are currently unregulated could become regulated, or segments of our businesses that are already regulated could be subject to new and changing regulatory requirements. Various proposals which may impact our business are currently before national regulatory entities regarding issues related to our business and business model. For example, in Singapore, on 10 September 2024, the Platform Workers Bill 2024 (the Bill) was passed in the Parliament. The Platform Workers Act 2024 has fully come into force on 1 January 2025. As such, we are required to make operational adjustments to comply with the necessary regulatory requirements, in order to avoid incurring penalties or disruptions in operations, which could involve significant costs or may not be practicable.

Compliance with existing or new laws and regulations could expose us to liabilities or cause us to incur significant expenses or otherwise impact our offerings or prospects, such as providing minimum base fare guarantee, contribution of driver partners' Central Provident Fund (CPF) and paying for driver partners' insurance. Additionally, as we expand our offerings in new areas, we may become subject to additional laws and regulations, which may require licenses to be obtained for us to provide new offerings or continue to provide existing offerings in Singapore. Further, developments in environmental regulations, such as those applicable to vehicles that run on fossil fuels, may adversely impact our mobility and quick commerce businesses.

Our actual or perceived failure to comply with applicable regulations could expose us to regulatory actions, including, but not limited to, potential fines, orders to temporarily or permanently cease all or some of our business activities, a prohibition on taking on new consumers and driver partners, and the implementation of mandated remedial measures. Any such actions could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***Our brand and reputation are amongst our most important assets and are critical to the success of our business.***

Our brand and reputation are amongst our most important assets. We believe "Ryde" is a household name in Singapore that is synonymous with our offerings. Successfully maintaining, protecting, and enhancing our brand and reputation are critical to the success of our business, including the ability to attract and maintain employees, driver partners and consumers accessing offerings available on our platform, and otherwise expand our mobility and quick commerce offerings. Our brand and reputation are also important to maintain or grow our standing in Singapore, including with regulators and community leaders. Any harm to our brand could lead to regulatory action, litigation and government investigations and weaken our ability to effect legislative changes and obtain licenses. In addition, because of our future plans to expand in other countries, an adverse impact on our brand or reputation in Singapore can adversely affect other parts of our business.

A variety of factors and/or incidents, including those that are actual and within our control, as well as those that are perceived, rumored, or outside of our control or responsibility, can adversely impact our brand and reputation, such as:

● complaints
 or negative publicity, including those related to personal injury or sexual assault cases involving consumers using our mobility
 offerings;

● issues
 with the choices and quality of our services and offerings or trust in our offerings;

● illegal
 or inappropriate behavior by employees, consumers or driver partners or other third parties we work with, including relating to the
 safety of consumers and driver partners;

● improper,
 unauthorized, or illegal actions by third parties who conduct fraudulent or other activities, such as phishing-attacks;

● the
 convenience and reliability of our mobile app and technology platform, as well as any cybersecurity incidents affecting, disruptions
 to the availability of, or defects in our platform or mobile app;

● issues
 with the pricing of our offerings or the terms on which we do business with platform users including consumers and driver partners;

● service
 delays or failures, such as missing, incorrect or cancelled rides, or issues with cleanliness, inappropriate handling during quick
 commerce deliveries;

● failing
 to act responsibly or in compliance with regulatory requirements, some of which may be evolving, in areas including labor, anti-corruption,
 anti-money laundering, safety and security, data security, privacy, provision of information about consumers and activities on our
 platform, or environmental requirements in areas including emissions, sustainability, human rights, diversity, non-discrimination
 and support for employees, driver partners and the local community; and

● media
 or legislative scrutiny or litigation or investigations by regulators or other third parties.

Any harm to our brand or reputation, including as a result of or related to any of the foregoing, could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***If we fail to manage our growth effectively, our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.***

Since our inception in 2014, we have experienced growth in our employee headcount, the number of consumers and driver partners using our platform, our offerings and scale of our operations. We have also expanded through strategic partnerships. This expansion increases the complexity of our business and has placed, and will continue to place significant strain on our management, personnel, operations, systems, technical performance, financial resources, and internal financial control and reporting functions. Our risk management function, particularly relating to enterprise-wide risk management are in relatively early stages of development and therefore we may be unable to identify, mitigate and remediate risks as they develop. We may not be able to manage our growth effectively, which could damage our reputation and negatively affect our operating results. Properly managing our growth will require us to establish consistent policies across functions as well as additional localized policies where necessary. A failure to effectively develop and implement any such policies could harm our business. In addition, as we expand, if we are unsuccessful in hiring, training, managing, and integrating new employees and staff to help manage and operate our businesses, or if we are not successful in retaining our existing employees and staff, our business may be harmed.

To manage the growth of our operations and personnel and improve the technology that supports our business operations, our financial and management systems, disclosure controls and procedures, and our internal controls over financial reporting, we will be required to commit substantial financial, operational, and technical resources. In particular, upgrades to our technology or network infrastructure are critical in supporting our growth, and without effective upgrades, we could experience unanticipated system disruptions, slow response times, or poor experiences for consumers and driver partners. As our operations continue to expand, our technology infrastructure systems will need to be scaled to support our operations. In addition, our organizational structure will continue to grow as our platform is used by additional consumers and driver partners, and as we add employees, services and offerings, and technologies. As we continue to expand, including potentially through acquisitions and strategic partnerships, which may include expansion into business activities where we have limited experience, such as financial services, car leasing etc, or no experience at all, we are also expecting the organizational structure to grow and change. If we do not manage the growth of our business and operations effectively, the quality of our platform and the efficiency of our operations could suffer, which could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***If we are required to reclassify driver partners as employees or otherwise, or if driver partners and/or employees unionize, there may be adverse business, financial, tax, legal and other consequences.***

The independent contractor status of driver partners is currently being challenged in courts, by government agencies, non-governmental organizations, groups of drivers, labor unions and trade associations all around the world. The tests governing whether a driver partner is an independent contractor, or an employee vary by governing law and are typically highly sensitive to certain factors including, among others, changes in public opinion and political conditions. We believe that the driver partners are independent contractors based on existing employment classification frameworks, because, among other things, they: (i) can choose whether, when, where, and the manner and means to provide services on our platform; (ii) are able to provide services on our competitors' platforms; (iii) have each acknowledged and agreed when signing up to our terms and conditions that their relationship with us does not constitute an employment relationship; (iv) may provide their own vehicles to perform services and are also able to rent cars (as lessees) from any rental company, if needed; and (v) pay a commission for using our platform. Changes to laws or regulations governing the definition or classification of independent contractors, or judicial decisions regarding independent contractor classification, could require reclassification of driver partners as employees, and if so, we would be required to incur significant additional expenses for compensating driver partners, potentially including expenses associated with the application of wage and hour laws, which may include requirements to pay wages for periods when a driver partner is offline or not driving through our platform, overtime, meal and rest period requirements, employee benefits, taxes, and penalties. In addition, a determination that driver partners are employees or ostensible agents could lead to claims, charges or other proceedings under laws and regulations applicable to employers and employees, such as claims of joint employer liability or agency liability, harassment and discrimination, and unionization. New employment classifications could be created and applied to the driver partners, with additional requirements imposed on us beyond current requirements. Any such reclassification or new classifications could have a significant impact on our labor costs, business operations and employee relations, and an adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Although our position with respect to the independent contractor status of driver partners has generally been upheld in Singapore, we may face challenges from potential changes pertaining to the employee status of driver partners.

Furthermore, we have historically strived to provide driver partner benefits and schemes including offering support to driver partners during the COVID-19 pandemic. Such benefits may in certain cases go beyond any statutory requirements and are used to both acquire and encourage the frequent use of our platform by driver partners as well as to demonstrate to stakeholders and regulators that we are a responsible and good partner to our platform users. However, despite such efforts, regulators may deem our benefits and welfare schemes insufficient and impose additional requirements on companies like us or change relevant laws or regulations. Policies could change due to, among others, driver welfare concerns with respect to matters such as income protection and certainty, long-term financial condition, professional development, the need for health or other insurance, retirement benefits, the need for fair working conditions and the desire to provide a forum to voice opinions and complaints, and we may not be successful in defending the independent contractor status of driver partners in Singapore or other jurisdictions we may expand into in the future. The costs associated with complying with future regulations or defending, settling, or resolving pending and future lawsuits relating to the independent contractor status of the driver partners could be material to our business.

In addition, even if we are successful in defending such independent contractor status, governments may nevertheless impose additional requirements on us with respect to our independent contractors. Although we do work with certain regulators to address these concerns, including discussing new categories of employment to cater to the needs of gig economy workers in a financially sustainable manner for platform companies such as us, we may not be successful in these efforts or be able to do so without impacting consumer experience. We may need to incur substantial additional expenses to provide additional benefits to our independent contractors if required or requested by regulators.

The occurrence of any of the foregoing events could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***If we are unable to continue to grow our base of platform users, including driver partners and consumers accessing our offerings, our value proposition for each constituent group could diminish, impacting our results of operations and prospects.***

Our success depends on our ability to increase the scale of the driver partner base and the number of consumers transacting through our platform. A key focus of our growth strategy has been to develop a super mobility app to create an ecosystem with synergies driving more users on both the supply and demand sides to our platform. This ecosystem, and the synergies within our ecosystem, take time to develop and grow, because doing so requires us to replicate our efforts in Singapore, to other cities in the future, where each country has different infrastructure, regulations, systems and user expectations and preferences, as well as a different approach to localizing our operations. Although we believe there are strong synergies among our business segments that help increase the breadth, depth and interconnectedness of our overall ecosystem, there are a number of risks and uncertainties that may impact the attractiveness of our ecosystem, including the following:

● If
 consumers are not attracted to our platform or choose quick commerce or mobility services providers outside of our platform, we may
 be unable to attract or retain driver partners to our platform, which in turn means consumers using our platform may have fewer choices
 and may not be able to obtain better value options thereby making our platform less attractive to consumers. Consumers choose our
 platform based on many factors, including the convenience of our mobile app, trust in the services offered through our platform as
 well as our technology platform and the choices and quality of our services and offerings. A deterioration in any of these factors
 could result in a decline in the number of consumers using the offerings on our platform, or the frequency with which they use such
 offerings.

● If
 driver partners are not attracted to our platform or choose not to offer their services through our platform, or elect to offer them
 through a competitor's platform, we may lack a sufficient supply of driver partners to attract and retain consumers to our
 platform. Driver partners choose us based on many factors, including the opportunity to earn money, the flexibility and autonomy
 to choose where, when and how often to work, the tools and opportunities we provide to seek to maximize productivity and other benefits
 that we provide to them. It is also important that we maintain a balance between demand and supply for mobility and quick commerce
 services in any given area at any given time. We have experienced and expect to continue to experience driver partner supply constraints
 from time to time in certain areas or locations within Singapore. To the extent that we experience driver partner supply constraints,
 we may need to increase, or may not be able to reduce, the driver partners incentives that we offer.

The number of consumers using our platform may decline or fluctuate as a result of many factors, including dissatisfaction with the operation and security of our mobile app or consumer support, pricing levels, dissatisfaction with the quick commerce or mobility offerings or quality of services provided by the driver partners and negative publicity related to our brand or reputation, including as a result of safety incidents, driver partner or community protests or public perception of our business.

The number of driver partners on our platform may decline or fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including ceasing to provide services through our platform, passage or enforcement of local laws regulating, restricting, prohibiting or taxing the services and offerings of the driver partners, the low costs of switching to alternative platforms, dissatisfaction with our brand or reputation, our pricing model (including potential reductions in incentives) or other aspects of our business. Additionally, driver partner or community protests could also negatively impact driver partners' perception of us or our industry and impact our ability to recruit and maintain our base of driver partners.

In addition, the synergies we seek to realize from having a super mobility app-led ecosystem may not materialize as we expect them to or in a cost-effective manner. For example, we expect our super mobility app strategy to benefit from maximizing driver partners' utilization, which we believe will be linked to lower driver partner and consumer acquisition costs due to potentially lower incentives that we need to offer, and increased consumer engagement, retention and spending.

Any inability to maintain or increase the number of consumers or driver partners that use our platform or a failure to effectively develop our super mobility app could have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain and enhance our ecosystem, as well as the synergies within our ecosystem, and otherwise materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***Security, privacy, or data breaches involving sensitive, personal or confidential information could also expose us to liability under various laws and regulations, decrease trust in our platform, and increase the risk of litigation and governmental investigation.***

Our business involves the collection, storage, processing, and transmission of a significant amount of personal and sensitive data, such as that of driver partners, consumers, employees, job candidates and other third parties. We are subject to numerous laws and regulations designed to protect such data. Laws and regulations that impact our business, and particularly laws, regulations and other measures the Singapore government may take based on privacy and data protection concerns, are increasingly strict and complex, and change frequently. We may also be required to disclose personal data about an individual to a government agency, where the disclosure is necessary in the public interest, or for the purposes of policy formulation or review. Some of these disclosures may put us in a disadvantaged position, especially if the provided data is repurposed for another intent, or adequate protection is not accorded to such data. As such laws increase in their complexity and impose new requirements, we may be required to incur increased costs to comply with data privacy laws and could incur penalties for any non-compliance or breaches. These laws may also limit how we are able to use data. For more information regarding relevant laws and regulations we are subject to, see "Item 4. Information on the Company – B. Business Overview – Regulations".

From time to time, we implement measures in order to protect sensitive and personal data in accordance with our contracts, data protection laws and consumer laws. However, we may be subject to data breach incidents, including where data breach incidents are suffered by third parties that we contract or interact with, that often involve factors beyond our control. We also rely on third-party service providers to host or otherwise process some of our platform users' data in Singapore and we may have limited control or influence over the security policies or measures adopted by such third-party service providers. Any failure by a third party to prevent or mitigate security breaches or improper access to, or disclosure of, such information could have adverse consequences for us.

Although we maintain, and are in the process of improving, internal access control mechanisms and other security measures to ensure secure and appropriate access to and storage and use of our sensitive, business, personal, financial or confidential information by anyone including our employees, contractors and consultants, these mechanisms may not be entirely effective, or fully complied with internally. As part of periodic reviews carried out by us, we have not identified, but in the future may identify, data protection issues requiring remediation with respect to such measures that require us to further update our compliance functions. Any misappropriation of personal information, including credit card information, could harm our relationship with consumers and driver partners and cause us to incur financial liability and reputational harm. If any person, including any of our employees, improperly breaches our network security or otherwise mismanages or misappropriates driver partners' or consumers' personal or sensitive data, we could be subject to regulatory actions and significant fines for violating privacy or data protection and consumer laws or lawsuits for breaching contractual confidentiality or data protection provisions which could result in negative publicity, legal liability, loss of consumers or driver partners and damage to our reputation. We are potentially an attractive target of data security attacks by third parties that may attempt to fraudulently induce employees to disclose information to gain access to our data or the data of platform users. A successful attempt could lead to the compromise of sensitive, business, personal, financial, credit card or other confidential information, which could result in significant liability and a material loss of revenue resulting from the adverse impact on our reputation and brand, a diminished ability to retain or attract new platform users and disruption to our business.

As the techniques used by an individual or a group to obtain unauthorized access could result in unwarranted alteration to our data and source codes, or disable and/or degrade services, and sabotage systems are often complex, not easily recognizable and evasive, we may not be able to anticipate these techniques and implement adequate preventative measures. Such individuals or groups may be able to circumvent our security measures (including, but not limited to, via phishing attacks, malware infection, system intrusion, misuse of systems, website defacement, and denial-of-service attacks) and may improperly access or misappropriate confidential, proprietary, or personal information held by or on behalf of us, disrupt our operations, damage our computers, or otherwise damage our business. Although we have developed, and continue to develop, systems and processes that are designed to protect our servers, platform and data, including personal and sensitive data of the driver partners, consumers, employees, job candidates and other third parties, we cannot guarantee that such measures will be effective at all times. Our efforts may be hindered due to, for example, government surveillance, regulatory requirements or other external events; software bugs or other technical errors or issues; or errors or misconduct of employees, contractors or others; a rapidly evolving threat landscape; and inadequate or failed internal processes or business practice. While we endeavor to protect against or remediate cybersecurity threats or breaches, or to mitigate the impact of any breaches or threats, we may still be subject to potential liability.

Any of the foregoing could subject us to regulatory fines, scrutiny and actions, including, but not limited to, orders to temporarily or permanently cease all or some of our business activities, a prohibition on taking on new consumers or driver partners and the implementation of mandated remedial measures, which could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***Improper, dangerous, illegal or otherwise inappropriate activity by consumers or driver partners or other third parties could harm our business and reputation and expose us to liability.***

Due to the breadth of our operations that span across a wide variety of consumers, driver partners and other third parties in Singapore, we are exposed to potential risks and liabilities arising from improper, dangerous, illegal or otherwise inappropriate actions by a wide variety of persons that we have no control over. Although we have implemented certain measures to ensure both driver partner and consumer safety, such measures may not be effective or adequate and any such actions may result in adverse consequences, such as nuisance, property damage, injuries, fatalities, business interruption, brand and reputational damage or significant liabilities for us.

Although there are generally certain qualification processes in place for the driver partners, including profile verification on driver partners, these qualification processes may not bring to light all potentially relevant information and would not bring to light events occurring after the qualification process is complete. In Singapore, certain information may be limited by applicable laws or limited generally, and we also may fail to conduct qualification processes adequately. Furthermore, we do not independently test the driving skills of the driver partners.

In both our mobility and quick commerce businesses, if the driver partners or consumers engage in improper, dangerous, illegal or otherwise inappropriate activities, driver partners and/or consumers may no longer consider offerings on our platform to be safe and we may otherwise suffer adverse consequences, such as liability arising from bodily harm to other users of our platform, and other brand and reputational damage. If consumers or third parties providing other services in partnership with us engage in improper, illegal or otherwise inappropriate activities while using our platform, other consumers and driver partners may also be unwilling to continue using our platform. Despite measures that we have taken to detect and reduce the occurrence of fraudulent or other malicious activity on our platform, we cannot guarantee that our measures will be effective.

Any of the foregoing activities, whether or not caused by or known to us, could harm our brand and reputation, result in litigation or regulatory actions, and may otherwise materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We are subject to risks associated with strategic alliances and partnerships.***

We have entered into strategic alliances and partnerships with third parties and may continue to do so in the future. For example, we entered into a partnership with an insurance company to provide insurance for riders who make trips using our Ryde platform. These alliances and partnerships subject us to a number of risks, including risks associated with the sharing of proprietary information between parties, non-performance by us or our partners of obligations under relevant agreements, disputes with strategic partners over strategic or operational decisions or other matters, increased expenses in establishing new strategic alliances and non-compete provisions under some of such arrangements which limit our ability to operate in certain market segments, and reputational risks from association with strategic partners, as well as litigation risks associated therewith.

Furthermore, some of our strategic alliances and partnership agreements may contain exclusivity provisions restricting us from providing a particular service outside of the strategic alliance or partnership in Singapore. Although we agree to such restrictions because we believe that the overall strategic alliance or partnership is to our benefit, such restrictions could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We rely significantly on third-party cloud infrastructure services providers and any disruption of or interference with the use of our services could adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.***

Our platform is currently hosted within data centers provided by third-party cloud infrastructure services providers. As the continuing and uninterrupted performance of our platform is critical to our success, any system failures of such third-party providers' services could reduce the attractiveness of our platform and may adversely affect our ability to meet the requirements of consumers and driver partners when they are using our platform. Third-party cloud infrastructure services providers are vulnerable to damage or interruptions from factors beyond our or their control, including but not limited to computer viruses and other malicious code, denial-of-service attacks, cyber and ransomware attacks, phishing attacks, break-ins, sabotage, vandalism, power loss or other telecommunications failure, fire, flood, hurricane, tornado or other natural disasters, software or hardware errors, failures or crashes and other similar disruptive problems. We expect that if/when we expand to certain jurisdictions outside of Singapore in the future, it may become increasingly difficult to ensure reliability of our platform as we expand, and the usage of our platform increases. Any future disruptions could adversely impact user experience, create negative publicity harming our reputation, impact the quality, availability and speed of the services we provide as well as potentially violate regulatory requirements in relation to technology risk and business continuity risk management. Any of the foregoing could result in interruptions, delays, loss of data, cessations to our operations or in the provision of offerings through our platform and compensation payments to our partners and end consumers, and could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Furthermore, under our agreements with our third-party cloud infrastructure services providers, there are standard rates based on the amount of storage required, and if we exceed the storage provided, we will have to incur additional expenses.

***The proper uninterrupted functioning of our highly complex technology platform is essential to our business.***

Our business depends on the performance and reliability of our system as well as the efficient and uninterrupted operation of mobile communications systems that are not under our control. Our mobile app platform is a complex system composed of many interoperating components and incorporates software that is highly complex, and therefore, many events that are beyond our control may cause service interruptions or degradations or other performance problems across the whole platform, including but not limited to computer viruses and other malicious code, denial-of-service attacks, cyber and ransomware attacks, phishing attacks, break-ins, sabotage, vandalism, power loss or other telecommunications failure, fire, flood, hurricane, tornado or other natural disasters, software or hardware errors, failures or crashes, and other similar disruptive problems. We may experience system failures and other events or conditions from time to time that interrupt the availability or reduce or affect the speed or functionality of our platform. We have certain disaster response procedures, and we or our third-party service providers currently have a business continuity framework in place in all instances. However, there can be no assurance that such framework will be implemented in a cost-effective manner or at all, or that it will prove effective or meet all the expectations of our stakeholders, including our consumers, driver partners and regulators, both current and in the future, in relation to cybersecurity risk, technology risk and business continuity management.

Our software, including third-party or open-source software that is incorporated into our software code, may now or in the future contain undetected errors, bugs, or vulnerabilities. Some errors in our software code may only be discovered after the code has been released. Bugs in our software, third-party software including open source software that is incorporated into our code, misconfigurations of our systems and unintended interactions between systems could result in our failure to comply with certain regulatory reporting obligations or compliance requirements or the introduction of vulnerabilities into our platform that may be exploited by cyber-attackers or third-parties engaging in fraudulent activities, or could cause downtime that would impact the availability of our platform, which could reduce the attractiveness of our platform to users, increase the likelihood of a successful cyber-attack or result in violations of regulators' expectations of prescribed technology risk management practices. Further, we may need our third-party service providers to comply with certain regulatory requirements and we cannot assure you that such third-party service providers are able to comply with such requirements. To mitigate this risk, we endeavor to have a diverse pool of third-party service providers. Cyber-attackers and third-parties engaged in fraudulent activities have not exploited vulnerabilities in our platform but may in the future attempt to do so. If the measures we take to prevent these incidents from occurring are unsuccessful, we may incur losses from these fraudulent activities.

Disruptions in internet infrastructure, the absence of available mobile data or global positioning system signals or the failure of telecommunications network operators to provide us with the necessary bandwidth for our services and offerings could also interfere with the speed and availability of our platform. Furthermore, we have no control over the costs of the services provided by Singapore's telecommunications operators. If mobile internet access fees or other charges to internet users increase, consumer traffic may decrease, which may in turn cause our revenue to significantly decrease. Our operations also rely on various other third-party software and applications, and disruptions with respect to our usage of any such software could cause business interruption.

Furthermore, although we seek to maintain and improve the availability of our platform and to enable rapid releases of new features and services, it may become increasingly difficult to maintain and improve the availability of our platform, especially during peak usage times and as our platform becomes more complex and more services are offered through our mobile app and user traffic increases. If our platform is unavailable when driver partners and consumers and/or platform users attempt to access it or it does not load as quickly as they expect or it experiences capacity constraints, users may seek other offerings including our competitors' services or offerings and may not return to our platform as often in the future, or at all. This could adversely affect our ability to maintain our ecosystem of driver partners and consumers and decrease the frequency with which they use our platform. We may not effectively address capacity constraints, upgrade systems as needed, or develop technology and network architecture to accommodate actual and anticipated changes in technology.

Any of these events could significantly disrupt our operations, impact user satisfaction and in turn our reputation and subject us to liability, which could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***Our business depends upon the interoperability of our mobile app and platform with different devices, operating systems and third-party software that we do not control.***

One of the most important features of our mobile app and platform is their broad interoperability with a range of devices, operating systems, and third-party applications. Our mobile app and platform are accessible from devices running various operating systems such as iOS and Android. We depend on the accessibility of our mobile app and platform across these third-party operating systems and applications that we do not control. Moreover, third-party services are constantly evolving, and we may not be able to modify our platform to assure our compatibility with that of other third parties following development changes. The loss of interoperability, whether due to actions of third parties or otherwise, could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

As new mobile devices and mobile platforms are released, there is no guarantee that certain mobile devices will continue to support our platform or effectively roll out updates to our applications. Additionally, in order to deliver high-quality applications, we need to ensure that our platform is designed to work effectively with a range of mobile technologies, systems, networks, and standards. We may not be successful in developing or maintaining relationships with key participants in the mobile industry that enhance users' experience. If consumers or driver partners that utilize our platform encounter any difficulty accessing or using our applications on their mobile devices or if we are unable to adapt to changes in popular mobile operating systems, platform growth and user engagement would be adversely affected.

We also depend on third parties maintaining open marketplaces, including the Apple App Store, Google Play and Huawei App Gallery, which make our mobile app available for download. We cannot assure you that the marketplaces, through which we distribute our mobile app, will maintain their current structures or that such marketplaces will not charge us fees to list our applications for download. If any such marketplaces cease to make our mobile app available for download, this would have a material adverse effect on our business.

In addition, we rely upon certain third parties to provide software or application programming interfaces ("APIs") for our services and offerings, which are currently important to the functionality of our platform. If such third parties cease to provide access to such third-party software or APIs on terms that we believe to be attractive or reasonable, or do not provide us with the most current version of such software, we may be required to seek comparable solutions from other sources, which may be more expensive or inferior and/or adversely impact user experience. In some cases, such third-party commercial software may be difficult to replace, or become unavailable to us on commercially reasonable terms. Any such changes to or unavailability of third-party software or APIs could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***If we do not adequately protect our intellectual property rights, or if third parties claim that we are misappropriating the intellectual property of others, we may incur significant costs and our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be adversely affected.***

Our brand value and technology, including our intellectual property, are some of our core assets. We protect our proprietary rights through a combination of intellectual property and contractual rights. These may include patents, registered designs, trademarks, copyright, trade secrets, license agreements, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with third parties, employee and contractor disclosure and invention assignment agreements, and other similar contractual rights. The efforts we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not be sufficient or effective. In addition, it may be possible for other parties to copy or reverse-engineer our services and offerings or obtain and use the content of our website without authorization. Further, we may be unable to prevent competitors from acquiring domain names or trademarks that are similar to, infringe upon, or diminish the value of our domain names, trademarks, service marks and other proprietary rights. In the event of any unauthorized use of our intellectual property or other proprietary rights by third parties, legal and contractual remedies available to us may not adequately compensate us. We primarily rely on copyrights and confidential information (including source code, trade secrets, know-how and data) protections, for the purposes of protecting our core technologies and proprietary databases, rather than registered rights such as patents. Further, the registration of intellectual property can be costly, subject to complex laws, rules and regulations, and can be challenged by third parties, and we may choose to limit or not to pursue intellectual property registrations in the future. Our reliance on copyrights and confidential information protections, rather than registered intellectual property rights, may make it more difficult for us to protect some of our core technologies against third-party infringement and could increase the risk of third-party infringement actions against us.

We may also be unable to detect infringement of our intellectual property rights, and even if such violations are found, we may not be successful, and may incur significant expenses in protecting our rights. In addition, our competitors may independently develop technology or services that are equivalent or superior to our technology services. Any enforcement efforts may be time-consuming, costly and may divert management's attention. Any failure to protect or any loss or dissolution of our intellectual property rights may have an adverse effect on our ability to compete and may adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Furthermore, as we face increasing competition and as our business grows, we may in the future receive notices that claim we have misappropriated, misused, or infringed upon other parties' intellectual property rights. In addition, as our strategic alliances and partnerships at times involve sharing of intellectual property, we are subject to the risk of our partners alleging we have misappropriated or misused such partner's intellectual property or our partners infringing our intellectual property.

Any intellectual property claims against us, regardless of merit, could be time consuming and expensive to settle or litigate, could divert our management's attention and other resources, and could hurt goodwill associated with our brand. These claims may also subject us to significant liability for damages and may result in us having to stop using technology, content, branding, or business methods found to be in violation of another party's rights. Certain adverse outcomes of such proceedings could adversely affect our ability to compete effectively in existing or future businesses.

We may also be required or may opt to seek a license for the right to use intellectual property held by others, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. Even if a license is available, we may be required to pay significant royalties, which may increase our operating expenses. If alternative technology, content, branding, or business methods for any allegedly infringing aspect of our business are not available, we may be unable to compete effectively or we may be prevented from operating our business in Singapore and other potential jurisdictions in the future.

The occurrence of any of the foregoing events could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We may not be able to make acquisitions or investments, or successfully integrate them into our business.***

As part of our business strategy, we may enter into or regularly pursue a wide array of potential strategic transactions, including strategic investments, alliances, partnerships, joint ventures and acquisitions, in each case relating to businesses, technologies, services and other assets that we expect to complement our business or that we believe will help to grow our business.

These types of transactions involve numerous risks, including, among others:

● intense
 competition for suitable targets and partners, which could increase prices and adversely affect our ability to consummate deals on
 favorable or acceptable terms;

● complex
 technologies, terms and arrangements, which may be difficult to implement and manage;

● failures
 or delays in closing transactions;

● difficulties
 integrating brand identity, technologies, operations, existing contracts, and personnel;

● failure
 to realize the anticipated return on investment, benefits or synergies;

● exclusivity
 provisions which prevent us from providing a particular service outside of the strategic alliance or partnership in Singapore or
 other jurisdictions in the future which could serve to limit access to business opportunities;

● failure
 to identify the problems, liabilities, or other shortcomings or challenges of an acquired company, partner or technology, including
 but not limited to issues related to intellectual property, cybersecurity risks, regulatory compliance practices, litigation, security
 interests over assets, contractual issues, revenue recognition or other accounting practices, or employee or user issues;

● expanding
 into business activities where we have limited experience, such as financial services, car leasing etc, or no experience at all;

● failure
 to retain key employees, to ensure that we can preserve value in the existing platform and avoid loss of institutional knowledge;

● risks
 that regulatory bodies do not approve our acquisitions or business combinations or delay such approvals or other adverse reactions
 from regulators;

● regulatory
 changes that require adjustments to our business or shareholding or rights in relation to subsidiaries or joint ventures; and

● adverse
 reactions to acquisitions by investors and other stakeholders.

Each acquisition will require management bandwidth to integrate, commensurate to the size and scale of the acquisition, which may distract our management from executing our existing roadmap. If we fail to address the risks or other problems encountered in connection with future transactions such as the foregoing, or if we fail to successfully integrate or manage such transactions, our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

***Any failure by us or our third-party service providers to comply with applicable anti-money laundering or other related laws and regulations could damage our business operations, reputation, financial performance, financial condition, and results of operation, or subject us to other risks.***

Our payment systems may, in Singapore and other potential markets, be governed by laws and regulations related to payment activities, including, among other things, laws and regulations relating to privacy, anti-money laundering, counter-terrorist financing, electronic funds transfers, systemic integrity risk assessments, cybersecurity of payment processes, and consumer protection. Our payment activities may be susceptible to illegal and improper uses, including money laundering, terrorist financing, and payments to sanctioned parties. These laws and regulations to which we are now or in the future may be subject to are highly complex, may be vague, and could change and may be interpreted to make it difficult or impossible for us to comply with them. Moreover, activities in Singapore where we allow payments in cash may raise additional legal, regulatory, and operational concerns. Operating a business that uses cash may increase our compliance risks with respect to a variety of laws and regulations, including those referred to above. In addition, we may in the future offer new payment options that may be subject to additional regulations and risks. For example, a digital wallet links with a payment service provider. If we fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations, we may be subject to civil or criminal penalties, fines, and higher transaction fees, and we may lose our ability to accept or process online payment, payment card or other related transactions, which could make offerings on our platform less convenient and attractive. In the event of any failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations, our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be adversely affected.

As our business expands, we will need to continue to invest in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and to conduct appropriate risk assessments and implement appropriate controls. Government authorities may scrutinize or seek to bring actions against us if our systems are used for improper or illegal purposes or if our risk management or controls are not adequately assessed, updated, or implemented, and the foregoing could result in financial or reputational harm to our business.

In addition, laws and regulations related to payments are evolving, and changes in such laws and regulations could affect our ability to provide services on our platform in the manner that we have done, expect to do, or at all. In addition, as we evolve our business or make changes to our operations, we may be subject to additional laws and regulations. Historical or future non-compliance with these laws and regulations could result in significant criminal and civil lawsuits, penalties, forfeiture of significant assets, or other enforcement actions. Costs associated with fines and enforcement actions, as well as reputational harm, changes in compliance requirements, or limits on our ability to expand our service offerings, could harm our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We rely on our partnerships with financial institutions and other third parties for payment processing infrastructure and for the provision of services through our platform.***

The convenient payment mechanisms provided by our mobile app and platform are key factors contributing to the development of our business. We rely on strategic partnerships with financial institutions and third parties such as Stripe for elements of our payment-processing infrastructure to process and remit payments to and from consumers and driver partners using our platform. If these companies become unwilling or unable to provide these services to us on acceptable terms or at all, our business may be disrupted. For certain payment methods, including credit and debit cards, we generally pay processing and gateway fees, and such fees result in costs.

In addition, online payment providers are under continued pressure to pay increased fees to banks to process funds, and there is no assurance that such online payment providers will not pass on any increased costs. If these fees increase over time, our operating costs will increase, which could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Failures of the payment processing infrastructure underlying our platform could cause consumers and driver partners to lose trust in our payment systems and could cause them to instead use our competitors' platforms. If the quality or convenience of our payment processing infrastructure declines as a result of these limitations or for any other reason, the attractiveness of our business to driver partners could be adversely affected. If we are forced to migrate to other third-party payment service providers for any reason, the transition would require significant time and management resources, and may not be as effective, efficient, or well-received by platform users.

Additionally, online payment providers require us to comply with payment card network operating rules, which are set and interpreted by the payment card networks. The payment card networks could adopt new operating rules or interpret or reinterpret existing rules in ways that might prohibit us from providing certain services to some users, be costly to implement, or be difficult to follow. If we fail to comply with these rules or regulations, we may be subject to fines and higher transaction fees and/or lose our ability to accept credit and debit card payments from consumers or facilitate other types of online payments. Any of the foregoing risks could adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

In addition, as a platform business, our business model generally provides a platform enabling driver partners and other third parties, such as insurance companies and financial institutions to reach a broader base of consumers. We believe that our platform holds potential in expanding the size and increasing the diversity of the customer base for insurance companies' and financial institutions by serving as an outreach marketing tool which assist in increasing the exposure and awareness of the insurance companies and financial institutions to end riders who use our application. We achieve this by offering complimentary insurance coverage to our customers and facilitating payments through a variety of credit cards via Stripe, thereby promoting awareness of and familiarity of these insurance companies and financial institutions.

To the extent such third parties use other means to reach consumers instead of our platform, our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be adversely impacted as we do not provide the services offered through our platform ourselves.

***Unfavorable media coverage could harm our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.***

From time to time, we are the subject of media coverage. Unfavorable publicity regarding, among other things, our business model or offerings, user support, technology, platform changes, platform quality, privacy or security practices, regulatory compliance, financial or operating performance, accounting judgments or management team could adversely affect our reputation. Such negative publicity could also harm the size of our network and the engagement and loyalty of consumers and driver partners that utilize our platform, which could adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Negative publicity could also draw regulator attention and lead to regulatory action or new laws or regulations impacting our business. In addition, the foregoing risks are increased by the widespread use of social media and the increasing incidence of fake or unsubstantiated news, particularly on social media and other online platforms.

As our platform continues to scale and public awareness of our brand increases, any future issues that draw media coverage could have an amplified negative effect on our reputation and brand. In addition, negative publicity related to key brands or influencers that we have partnered with may damage our reputation, even if the publicity is not directly related to us. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We rely on the Land Transport Authority of Singapore for the validity of certain licenses.***

All potential driver partners are required to go through our security and safety screening checks before being qualified as a driver partner on our platform. Part of this profile verification involves ensuring that driver partners have valid licenses issued by the Land Transport Authority of Singapore, in particular, the Taxi Driver's Vocational License (TDVL) and/or the Private Hire Car Driver's Vocational License (PDVL). These licenses are a requirement for potential driver partners in Singapore that use our platform, pursuant to applicable law, and our business may be adversely affected to the extent that we depend on the Land Transport Authority of Singapore for the accuracy for such licenses still subsisting, or whether it has been revoked.

If the Land Transport Authority of Singapore's information to us on the validity of such licenses is inaccurate, unqualified drivers may be permitted to conduct passenger trips or make quick commerce deliveries on our platform, and as a result, we may be unable to adequately protect or provide a safe environment for consumers. Qualified drivers may also be inadvertently excluded from our platform, which could adversely affect our reputation and brand.

Any of the foregoing risks could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We depend on talented, experienced and committed personnel, including engineers, to grow and operate our business, and if we are unable to recruit, train, motivate and retain qualified personnel, particularly in the technology sector, our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.***

Due to the nature of our industry, our business needs to constantly upgrade our technical systems which in turn depends on the skills and capability of our employees. In the event we are not able to attract or retain talent, our business may be adversely affected. Therefore, a fundamental driver of our ability to succeed is our ability to recruit, train and retain high-quality management, operations, engineering, and other personnel who are in high demand, are often subject to competing employment offers and are attractive recruiting targets for our competitors. Our senior management, mid-level managers and technology sector employees, including software engineers, DevOps engineers, data analysts, senior product manager, graphic designer are instrumental in implementing our business strategies, executing our business plans and supporting our business operations and growth. There is particularly acute competition for technology sector and technology development employees in Singapore. In addition, we depend on the continued services and performance of our key personnel. Our chairman and CEO, Mr. Terence Zou, and CFO, Mr. Lang Chen Fei and their involvement in our business are important to our success. These key executives play a central role in the development and implementation of our business strategies and initiatives. Any decrease in the involvement of any of these key executives in our business or loss of key personnel, particularly to competitors, could have an adverse effect on our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The unexpected or abrupt departure of one or more of our key personnel and the failure to effectively transfer knowledge and effect smooth key personnel transitions may in the future have an adverse effect on our business resulting from the loss of such person's skills, knowledge of our business, and years of industry experience. Although our employment contracts contain non-compete clauses, there is the risk that such non-compete clauses may be deemed unenforceable under applicable law.

To attract and retain key personnel, we use equity incentives, among other measures, which may not be sufficient to attract and retain the personnel we require to operate our business effectively. As demand in the technology sector intensifies, we may be required to offer more in terms of cash or equity in order to attract and retain talent, which would increase our expenses. The equity incentives we use to attract, retain, and motivate employees may not be effective, particularly if the value of the underlying stock does not increase commensurate with expectations or consistent with our historical growth. We may need to invest significant amounts of cash and equity to attract and retain new employees and expend significant time and resources to identify, recruit, train and integrate such employees, and we may never realize returns on these investments. If we are unable to attract and retain high-quality management and operating personnel as and when required, our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be adversely affected.

Our ability to recruit and retain talent at desired compensation levels could also be limited by government policies, which at times may favor Singapore nationals rather than hiring talent from abroad, which could impact our talent pool and the costs associated with it. Our ability to recruit and retain talent and maintain good relations with our employees could also be impacted by employee activism over social, political or other matters. There is no assurance that there will be no loss of any of our talented, experienced and committed personnel or that our management succession plans will be successful in grooming successors.

***Adverse litigation judgments or settlements resulting from legal proceedings in which we may be involved could expose us to monetary damages or limit the ability to operate our business.***

In the course of our business, we may be involved in private actions, collective actions, class actions, investigations, and various other legal proceedings by driver partners, consumers, employees, commercial partners, competitors, or government agencies, among others, relating to, for example, personal injury or property damage cases, wrongful act, subrogation, employment or labor-related disputes such as wrongful termination of employment, consumer complaints, disputes with driver partners, contractual disputes with consumers or suppliers, disputes with third parties and regulatory inquiries or proceedings relating to compliance with competition and data privacy regulations. The results of any such litigation, investigations, and legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable and may be expensive. Any claims against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, costly, and harmful to our reputation, and could require significant amounts of management time and corporate resources. Furthermore, we may be held jointly responsible for claims against third parties offering their services through our platform, including driver partners. If any of these legal proceedings were to be determined adversely to us, or we were to enter into any settlement arrangement, we could be exposed to monetary damages or be forced to change the way in which we operate our business, which could have an adverse effect on our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Any such disputes or future disputes could subject us to negative publicity, have an adverse impact on our brand and reputation, divert management's time and attention, involve significant costs and otherwise materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We track certain operating metrics with internal systems and tools and do not independently verify such metrics. Certain of our operating metrics are subject to inherent challenges in measurement, and any real or perceived inaccuracies in such metrics may adversely affect our business and reputation.***

We track certain key operating metrics, including, among others, our Gross Merchandise Value ("GMV"), driver partners incentives, and consumer incentives, with internal systems and tools that are not independently verified by any third party and which may differ from estimates or similar metrics published by third parties due to differences in sources, methodologies, or the assumptions on which we rely. Our internal systems and tools have a number of limitations, and our methodologies for tracking these metrics may change over time, which could result in unexpected changes to our metrics, including the metrics we publicly disclose. If the internal systems and tools we use to track these metrics undercount or overcount performance or contain algorithmic or other technical errors, the data we report may not be accurate. While these numbers are based on what we believe to be reasonable estimates of our metrics for the applicable period of measurement, there are inherent challenges in measuring how our platform is used. For example, the accuracy of our operating metrics could be impacted by fraudulent users of our platform, and further, we believe that there are consumers who have multiple accounts, even though this is prohibited in our Terms of Service and we implement measures to detect and prevent this behavior. Consumer usage of multiple accounts may cause us to overstate the number of consumers on our platform. In addition, limitations or errors with respect to how we measure data or with respect to the data that we measure may affect our understanding of certain details of our business, which could affect our long-term strategies. If our operating metrics are not accurate representations of our business, if investors do not perceive our operating metrics to be accurate, or if we discover material inaccuracies with respect to these figures, we expect that our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

***Our use of open-source software (OSS) under restrictive licenses could: (i) adversely affect our ability to license and commercialize certain elements of our proprietary code based on the commercial terms of our choosing; (ii) result in a loss of our trade secrets or other intellectual property rights with respect to certain portions of our proprietary code; and (iii) subject us to litigation and other disputes.***

In general, the incorporation of OSS would be a potential cause of concern where the OSS is licensed under restrictive OSS licenses. Under restrictive OSS licenses, a licensee could be required to release to the public the source code of certain elements of its proprietary software which incorporate OSS or modified OSS in a certain manner; and (ii) have been conveyed or distributed to the public, or which the public interacts with. In some cases, restrictive OSS licenses may require a licensee to ensure that elements of its proprietary software are licensed to the public on the terms set out in the relevant OSS license or at no cost. This could allow competitors to use certain elements of the licensee's proprietary software on a relatively unrestricted basis or develop similar software at a lower cost.

OSS licensors generally do not provide warranties for their OSS, and the OSS may contain security vulnerabilities that we must actively manage or patch. It may be necessary for us to commit substantial resources to remediate our use of OSS under restrictive OSS licenses, for example by engineering alternative or work-around code.

There is an increasing number of OSS license types, and the terms under many of these licenses are unclear or ambiguous, and have not been interpreted by Singapore or foreign courts, and therefore, the potential impact of such licenses on our business is not fully known or predictable. As a result, these licenses could be construed in a way that could impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize our own proprietary code (and in particular the elements of our proprietary code which incorporates OSS or modified OSS). Furthermore, we could become subject to lawsuits or claims challenging our use of OSS or compliance with OSS license terms. If unsuccessful in these lawsuits or claims, we may face IP infringement or other liabilities, be required to seek costly licenses from third parties for the continued use of third-party IP, be required to re-engineer elements of our proprietary code base (e.g. for the sake of avoiding third-party IP infringement), discontinue or delay the use of infringing aspects of our proprietary code base (such as if re-engineering is not feasible), or disclose and make generally available, in source code form, certain elements of our proprietary code.

More broadly, the use of OSS can give rise to greater risks than the use of commercially acquired software, since open-source licensors usually limit their liability in respect of the use of the OSS, and do not provide support, warranties, indemnifications or other contractual protections regarding the use of the OSS which would ordinarily be provided in the context of commercially acquired software.

Any of the foregoing could adversely impact the value of certain elements of our proprietary code base, and our ability to enforce our intellectual property rights in such code base against third parties. In turn, this could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***Increases in fuel, energy, and other costs could adversely affect us.***

Factors such as inflation, increased fuel prices, and increased vehicle purchase, rental, or maintenance costs may increase the costs incurred by the driver partners when providing services on our platform. Many of the factors affecting driver partner costs are beyond their control. In many cases, these increased costs may cause driver partners to spend less time providing services on our platform or to seek alternative sources of income. A decreased supply of consumers and driver partners on our platform could harm our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Additionally, as with other businesses in Singapore, we expect to face inflationary pressures and a general trend of increase in the costs of overheads such as utilities. Singapore has raised its Goods and Services Tax ("GST") from 8% to 9% in 2024, which could further contribute to cost increases as well. These factors may materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We allow consumers to pay for rides through our platform using cash, which raises numerous operational and safety concerns.***

We allow consumers to use cash to pay the driver partners the entire fare of rides (including the service fee payable to us by driver partners from such rides). The use of cash raises numerous operational and safety concerns. The use of cash can increase safety and security risks for the driver partners, including potential robbery, assault, violent or fatal attacks, and other criminal acts. We have undertaken steps to minimize the use of cash by encouraging the use of credit and debit card payments, and providing consumer incentives to encourage the use of RydeCoins. Additionally, in the event that individual accounts breach or are suspected to have breached the terms of use policies, the use of cash will be suspended to reduce fare evasion and phantom bookings. As of the date of this annual report, the use of cash for certain consumer accounts has been temporarily disabled based on our security algorithms.

In addition, establishing the proper infrastructure to ensure that we receive the correct fee on cash trips is complex, and has in the past meant and may continue to mean that we cannot collect the entire fee for certain cash-based transactions. We have created a system for us to collect and properly account for cash received, though it may not always be effective or convenient. Our system allows us to collect service fee and commissions on cash-based trips by offsetting the amount of cash we would have collected, from the digital wallets of our driver partners. Should the amount in the driver partners' digital wallet fall below a certain threshold, we will disable the cash payment option for such accounts for consequent trips in order to mitigate the risk of not being able to collect our commissions from driver partners for such cash-based trips. Creating, maintaining, and improving these systems requires significant effort and resources, and we cannot guarantee these systems will be effective in collecting amounts due to us. Further, operating a business that uses cash raises compliance risks with respect to a variety of rules and regulations, including anti-money laundering laws. If driver partners fail to pay us under the terms of our agreements or if our collection systems fail, we may be adversely affected by both the inability to collect amounts due and the cost of enforcing the terms of our contracts, including litigation. Such collection failure and enforcement costs, along with any costs associated with a failure to comply with applicable rules and regulations, could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We have insurance coverage provided by third parties, and we are subject to the risk that this may be insufficient or that insurance providers may be unable to meet their obligations.***

We depend on (i) insurance coverage for driver partners and on other types of insurance for additional risks related to our business, and (ii) the driver partners' ability to procure and maintain insurance required by law. We maintain a number of insurance policies, including, but not limited to, workers' compensation, and director and officers' liability. If our insurance providers change the terms of our policies in an adverse manner, our insurance costs could increase, and if the insurance coverage we maintain is not adequate to cover losses that occur, we could be liable for additional costs. Additionally, there are certain types of losses such as from wars, acts of terrorism or some acts of God that generally are not insured because they are either uninsurable or not economically insurable. In the event any of our insurance providers become insolvent, we would be unable to pay any claim that we make.

For example, the relevant regulator requires driver partners to carry automobile insurance in Singapore. We rely on a limited number of insurance providers, and should such providers discontinue or increase the cost of coverage, we cannot guarantee that we, on behalf of driver partners, would be able to secure replacement coverage on reasonable terms or at all. If we are required to purchase additional insurance for other aspects of our business, or if we fail to comply with regulations governing insurance coverage, our business could be harmed.

We may also be subject to claims of significant liability based on traffic accidents, injuries, or other incidents that are claimed to have been caused by the driver partners. Even if these claims do not result in liability, we could incur significant costs in investigating and defending against them. If we are subject to claims of liability relating to the acts of driver partners or others using our platform, we may be subject to negative publicity and incur additional expenses, which could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

 ****

***We have plans to expand to other countries and are therefore subject to potential risks associated with operating and investing in these countries.***

We currently derive all of our revenue from our operations in Singapore. However, we have plans to expand our business in other countries. Our potential operations and investments in these countries may be subject to various risks related to the economic, political and social conditions of the countries in which we may operate in, including risks related to the following:

● inconsistent
 and evolving regulations, licensing and legal requirements may increase our operational risks and cost of operations among the countries
 in which we may operate in;

● currencies
 may be devalued or may depreciate or currency restrictions or other restraints on transfer of funds may be imposed;

● the
 effects of inflation within these countries generally and/or within any specific country in which we may operate may increase our
 cost of operations;

● governments
 or regulators may impose new or more burdensome regulations, taxes or tariffs;

● political
 changes may lead to changes in the business, legal and regulatory environments in which we may operate in;

● economic
 downturns, political instability, civil disturbances, war, military conflict, religious or ethnic strife, terrorism and general security
 concerns may negatively affect our operations;

● enactment
 or any increase in the enforcement of regulations, including, but not limited to, those related to personal data protection and localization
 and cybersecurity, may incur compliance costs;

● health
 epidemics, pandemics or disease outbreaks (including the COVID-19 outbreak) may affect our operations and demand for our offerings;
 and

● natural
 disasters like volcanic eruptions, floods, typhoons and earthquakes may impact our operations severely.

For example, volatile political situations in certain Southeast Asian countries could impact our business. Any disruptions in our business activities or volatility or uncertainty in the economic, political or regulatory conditions in the markets we potentially may operate in could adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Additionally, the laws in the countries in which we potentially may operate may change and their interpretation and enforcement may involve significant uncertainties that could limit the reliability of the legal protections available to us. We cannot predict the effects of future developments in the legal regimes in the countries in which we may potentially operate.

Any of the foregoing risks could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***Negative publicity, including those relating to any of our Directors, executive officers, shareholders of more than 5% of our Ordinary Shares, may adversely affect our share price.***

Negative publicity or announcements, including those relating to any of our Directors, executive officers, shareholders of more than 5% of our Ordinary Shares, with or without merit, may adversely affect the market perception of our Group or the performance of the price of our shares, whether or not it is justified. For instance, such negative publicity may arise from unsuccessful attempts in joint ventures, acquisitions or take-overs, or involvement in litigation or insolvency proceedings.

***Natural events, wars, terrorist attacks and other acts of violence involving any of the countries in which we have plans to expand into in the future could adversely affect our operations.***

Natural disaster events (such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, floods, tropical weather conditions and landslides), terrorist attacks, civil unrest, protests and other acts of violence or war may adversely disrupt our operations in the countries we may expand into in the future, lead to economic weakness in such countries in which they occur and affect worldwide financial markets, and could potentially lead to economic recession, which could materially and adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. These events could precipitate sudden significant changes in regional and global economic conditions and cycles. These events may also potentially pose significant risks to our people and to our business operations.

**RISKS RELATING TO OUR SECURITIES** 

***An active trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares may not be established or, if established, may not continue and the trading price for our Class A Ordinary Shares may fluctuate significantly.***

We cannot assure you that a liquid public market for our Class A Ordinary Shares will be established. If an active public market for our Class A Ordinary Shares does not occur, the market price and liquidity of our Class A Ordinary Shares may be materially and adversely affected.

***We may not maintain the listing of our Class A Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American which could limit investors' ability to make transactions in our Class A Ordinary Shares and subject us to additional trading restrictions.***

We listed our Class A Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American. In order to continue listing our shares on the NYSE American, we must maintain certain financial and share price levels and we may be unable to meet these requirements in the future. We cannot assure you that our shares will continue to be listed on the NYSE American in the future.

On May 21, 2025, we received a notice from NYSE American indicating that we were not in compliance with the continued listing standards set forth in Sections 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE American Company Guide (the "Company Guide"). Section 1003(a)(ii) applies if a listed company has stockholders' equity of less than US$4.0 million and has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years. We are also not currently eligible for any exemption in Section 1003(a) of the Company Guide from the stockholders' equity requirements. As a result, we have become subject to the procedures and requirements of Section 1009 of the Company Guide and must submit a plan to NYSE American by June 20, 2025 addressing how we intend to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide by November 21, 2026.

On June 20, 2025, we have submitted a plan to the NYSE American to regain compliance within the required timeframe, and the plan was accepted by the NYSE American on August 5, 2025. In addition, although the plan has been accepted by NYSE American, if we are not in compliance with the continued listing standards by November 21, 2026, or if we do not make progress consistent with the plan during the plan period, we will be subject to delisting proceedings. We are subject to periodic NYSE American reviews, including quarterly monitoring for compliance with the plan. Our Class A voting shares will continue to be listed during the plan period pursuant to an extension and trade on the symbol "RYDE".

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has stockholders' equity of US$24.9 million.

If the NYSE American delists our Class A Ordinary Shares and we are unable to list our shares on another national securities exchange, we expect our shares could be quoted on an over-the-counter market in the United States. If this were to occur, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

(a) a
 limited availability of market quotations for our Class A Ordinary Shares;

(b) reduced
 liquidity for our Class A Ordinary Shares;

(c) a
 determination that our Class A Ordinary Shares are "penny stock", which will require brokers trading in our shares to
 adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our
 Class A Ordinary Shares;

(d) a
 limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

(e) a
 decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

As long as our Class A Ordinary Shares are listed on the NYSE American, U.S. federal law prevents or pre-empts the states from regulating their sale. However, the law does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent activity, then the states can regulate or bar their sale. Further, if we were no longer listed on the NYSE American, we would be subject to regulations in each state in which we offer our shares.

***The trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares may be volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors.***

The trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares may be volatile and could fluctuate widely due to factors beyond our control. This may happen because of the broad market and industry factors, like the performance and fluctuation of the market prices of other companies with business operations located mainly in Singapore that have listed their securities in the United States.

In addition to market and industry factors, the price and trading volume for our Class A Ordinary Shares may be highly volatile for factors specific to our own operations, including the following:

(a) fluctuations
 in our revenue, earnings and cash flow;

(b) changes
 in financial estimates by securities analysts;

(c) additions
 or departures of key personnel;

(d) release
 of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on our outstanding equity securities or sales of additional equity securities; and

(e) potential
 litigation or regulatory investigations.

Any of these factors may result in significant and sudden changes in the volume and price at which our shares will trade.

In the past, shareholders of public companies have often brought securities class action suits against those companies following periods of instability in the market price of their securities. If we were involved in a class action suit, it could divert a significant amount of our management's attention and other resources from our business and operations and require us to incur significant expenses to defend the suit, which could harm our results of operations. Any such class action suit, whether or not successful, could harm our reputation and restrict our ability to raise capital in the future. In addition, if a claim is successfully made against us, we may be required to pay significant damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our Class A Ordinary Shares, the market price for our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading volume could decline.***

The trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares will be influenced by research or reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. If one or more analysts downgrade their assessment on our Class A Ordinary Shares or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market price for our Class A Ordinary Shares would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease to cover us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, or if these securities analysts are not widely respected within the general investment community, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the market price or trading volume for our Class A Ordinary Shares to decline.

***Short selling may drive down the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.***

Short selling is the practice of selling shares that the seller does not own but rather has borrowed from a third party with the intention of buying identical shares back at a later date to return to the lender. The short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the value of the shares between the sale of the borrowed shares and the purchase of the replacement shares, as the short seller expects to pay less in that purchase than it received in the sale. As it is in the short seller's interest for the price of the shares to decline, many short sellers publish, or arrange for the publication of, negative opinions and allegations regarding the relevant issuer and its business prospects in order to create negative market momentum and generate profits for themselves after selling the shares short. These short attacks have, in the past, led to selling of shares in the market. If we were to become the subject of any unfavorable publicity, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we would have to expend a significant amount of resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend ourselves. While we would strongly defend against any such short seller attacks, we may be constrained in the manner in which we can proceed against the relevant short seller by principles of freedom of speech, applicable state law or issues of commercial confidentiality.

***There can be no assurance that we will not be a passive foreign investment company for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences for U.S. investors who own our securities.***

We are a non-U.S. corporation and, as such, we will be classified as a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") for any taxable year if, for such year, either:

(a) at
 least 75% of our gross income for the year is passive income; or

(b) the
 average percentage of our assets (determined at the end of each quarter) during the taxable year that produced passive income or
 that are held for the production of passive income is at least 50%.

Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents, royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets. For purposes of the PFIC analysis, in general, a non-U.S. corporation is deemed to own its *pro rata* share of the gross income and assets of any entity in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the equity by value.

Based on the current and projected composition of our income and assets, and the expected value of our assets, including goodwill, which is based on the expected price of our Class A Ordinary Shares in the offering, we do not expect to be a PFIC for the current taxable year. However, because PFIC status is determined on an annual basis, and therefore our PFIC status for the current taxable year and any future taxable year will depend upon the future composition of our income and assets, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for any taxable year. If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. investor holds Class A Ordinary Shares, we generally would continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to that U.S. investor for all succeeding years during which the U.S. investor holds such Class A Ordinary Shares, even if we ceased to meet the threshold requirements for PFIC status. In such case, such a U.S. investor generally will be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, including (i) the treatment of all or a portion of any gain on disposition as ordinary income, (ii) the application of a deferred interest charge on such gain and the receipt of certain dividends and (iii) compliance with certain reporting requirements. We do not intend to provide the information that would enable investors to make a qualified electing fund election that could mitigate the adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences should we be a PFIC. You are urged to consult your tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of Class A Ordinary Shares if we are to become classified as a PFIC.

***We are an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act and may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements.***

We are an "emerging growth company", as defined in the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various requirements applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, most significantly, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for so long as we are an emerging growth company. As a result, if we elect not to comply with such auditor attestation requirements, our investors may not have access to certain information they may deem important.

In addition, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts an emerging growth company from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until such date that a private company is otherwise required to comply with such new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an "emerging growth company" can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the extended transition period, although we have already adopted certain new and revised accounting standards based on transition guidance permitted under such standards. As a result of this election, our future financial statements may not be comparable to other public companies that comply with the public company effective dates for these new or revised accounting standards, which may make our Class A Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors. In addition, if we cease to be an emerging growth company, we will no longer be able to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

***We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the Exchange Act, and as such we are exempt from certain provisions applicable to United States domestic public companies.***

Because we are a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we are exempt from certain provisions of the securities rules and regulations in the United States that are applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, including:

(a) the
 rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K with the SEC;

(b) the
 sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered
 under the Exchange Act;

(c) the
 sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability
 for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and

(d) the
 selective disclosure rules by issuers of material non-public information under Regulation FD.

We are required to file an annual report on Form 20-F within four (4) months after the end of each fiscal year. In addition, we intend to publish our financial results on a semi-annual basis through press releases distributed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the NYSE American. Press releases relating to financial results and material events will also be furnished to the SEC on Form 6-K. However, the information we are required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. As a result, you may not be afforded the same protections or information that would be made available to you if you were investing in a U.S. domestic issuer.

The determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last Business Day of an issuer's most recently completed on December 31, 2025, and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to us on December 31, 2025. In the future, we would lose our foreign private issuer status if more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities become directly or indirectly held of record by U.S. Holders and any one of the following is true: (i) the majority of our directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents; (ii) more than 50% of our assets are located in the United States; or (iii) our business is administered principally in the United States. If we lose our foreign private issuer status, we will be required to file with the SEC periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. We will also have to comply with U.S. federal proxy requirements, and our officers, Directors and 10% shareholders will become subject to the short-swing profit disclosure and recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we will lose our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements under the listing rules of the NYSE American. As a U.S. listed public company that is not a foreign private issuer, we will incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses that we will not incur as a foreign private issuer.

***As an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from NYSE American corporate governance listing standards.***

As an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from the corporate governance listing requirements of the NYSE American. These practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with corporate governance listing requirements of the NYSE American. We will rely on home country practice to be exempted from certain of the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE American, namely:

(i) there
 will not be a necessity to hold meetings of board of directors on at least a quarterly basis, or the requirement for independent
 directors to have regularly scheduled executive sessions at least annually without the presence of non-independent directors and
 management; and

(ii) there
 will be no issuance of quarterly earnings statements. The Company, as a foreign private issuer, will file the Form 6-K containing
 semi-annual financial information required by Section 110(e) of the NYSE American LLC Company Guide by the date specified in the
 rule; and

(iii) there
 will be no requirement for the Company to obtain shareholder approval with respect to (a) the establishment (or material amendment
 to) a stock option or purchase plan or other equity compensation arrangement as specified in Section 711 of the NYSE American LLC
 Company Guide; (b) the issuance of additional shares as sole or partial consideration for an acquisition of the stock or assets of
 another company in the circumstances specified in Section 712 of the NYSE American LLC Company Guide; and (c) the issuance of additional
 shares in connection with a transaction specified in Section 713 of the NYSE American LLC Company Guide, or that will result in a
 change of control of the Company; and

(iv) Section
 704 of the NYSE American Company Guide, which requires an issuer to hold an annual meeting of shareholders no later than one year
 after the end of the issuer's fiscal year, and under U.S. corporate governance practices, contemplates that directors stand
 for election periodically at such meetings. Under Cayman Islands law and our articles of association, we are not required to hold
 annual general meetings. We have elected to follow our home country practice in these respects.

***We have incurred and will continue to incur significantly increased costs and devote substantial management time as a result of the listing of our Class A Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American.***

We are required to comply with the requirements of the rules and regulations of the SEC and the NYSE American rules, including applicable corporate governance practices. Compliance with these requirements may increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, our management and other personnel need to divert attention from operational and other business matters to devote substantial time to these public company requirements.

In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs and making some activities more time-consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidelines are provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management's time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to their application and practice, regulatory authorities may also initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be adversely affected.

Some members of our management team have limited experience managing a publicly traded company, interacting with public company investors and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies. Our management team may not successfully or efficiently manage the transition to being a public company subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under the federal securities laws and regulations and the continuous scrutiny of securities analysts and investors. The need to establish the corporate infrastructure demanded of a public company may divert the management's attention from implementing our growth strategy, which could prevent us from improving our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, we expect these rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and consequently we may be required to incur substantial costs to maintain the same or similar coverage. These additional obligations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee, compensation committee and nominating committee, and qualified executive officers.

As a result of disclosure of information in this annual report and in filings required of a public company, our business and financial condition is more visible than private companies, which we believe may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, our business and operating results could be adversely affected, and, even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims, and the time and resources necessary to resolve them, could cause an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and reputation.

***You may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through U.S. courts may be limited, because we are incorporated under Cayman Islands law.***

We are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands with limited liability, and conduct all of our operations through our subsidiary, Ryde Technologies Pte. Ltd., outside the United States. All of our assets are located, and our officers and directors reside, and the assets of such persons are located, outside the United States. As a result, it could be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against us or against these individuals outside of the United States in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed upon under the applicable securities laws or otherwise. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands and Singapore could render you unable to enforce a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors and officers.

In addition, our corporate affairs are governed by our memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against our Directors and us, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our Directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from the common law of England and Wales, which are generally of persuasive authority, but are not binding, on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our Directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws than the United States, and provide significantly less protection to investors. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have the standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States. There is no statutory recognition in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, although the courts of the Cayman Islands will generally recognize and enforce a non-penal judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits.

Shareholders of Cayman Islands exempted companies like us have no general rights under Cayman Islands law to inspect corporate records (other than the memorandum and articles of association, a list of the current directors of the company, the register of mortgages and charges and any special resolutions passed by our shareholders) or to obtain copies of lists of shareholders of these companies. Our Directors are not required under our memorandum and articles of association to make our corporate records available for inspection by our shareholders. This may make it more difficult for you to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder resolution or to solicit proxies from other shareholders in connection with a proxy contest.

The courts of the Cayman Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize or enforce judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state securities laws; and (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state securities laws, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given provided certain conditions are met. For a foreign judgment to be enforced in the Cayman Islands, such judgment must be final and conclusive and for a liquidated sum, and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent with a Cayman Islands judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, or be of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy). A Cayman Islands Court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

Certain corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands, which is our home country, differ significantly from requirements for companies incorporated in other jurisdictions such as the United States. To the extent we choose to follow home country practice with respect to corporate governance matters, our shareholders may be afforded less protection than they otherwise would under rules and regulations applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

As a result of all of the above, our shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by our management or members of the board of Directors than they would as shareholders of a company incorporated in a U.S. state.

***We are exposed to risks arising from fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates.***

As our shares are quoted in US$ on the NYSE American, dividends, if any, in respect of our shares will be paid in US$. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the US$ and other currencies will affect, amongst other things, the foreign currency value of the proceeds which a shareholder would receive upon sale of our shares and the foreign currency value of dividend distributions.

***Future issuance of Shares by us and sale of Shares by our existing shareholders may adversely affect the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.***

In the event we issue or our shareholders sell substantial amounts of our shares in the public market, the price of our shares may be adversely affected. The sale of a significant number of shares in the public market on the NYSE American, or the issue of further new securities by us such as upon exercise of outstanding warrants or options, or the perception that such sales or issues may occur, could materially affect the market price of our shares. Such issues or sales may also make it difficult for us to issue new shares and raise the necessary funds in the future at a time and price we deem appropriate.

***Our dual-class voting structure 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.***

Our authorized and issued Ordinary Shares are divided into Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. Holders of Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote per share, while holders of Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to 10 votes per share. Each Class B Ordinary Shares is convertible into one Class A Ordinary Shares at any time by the holder thereof, while Class A Ordinary Shares are not convertible into Class B Ordinary Shares under any circumstances. The holder of Class B Ordinary Shares have the ability to control matters requiring shareholders' approval, including any amendment of our memorandum and articles of association and approval over any change of control transactions. Any conversions of Class B Ordinary Shares into Class A Ordinary Shares may dilute the percentage ownership of the existing holders of Class A Ordinary Shares within their class of Ordinary Shares.

Our founder, chairman of the board of directors and chief executive officer, Mr. Terence Zou, beneficially own all of our issued and outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares. These Class B Ordinary Shares constitute approximately 9.74% of our total issued and outstanding share capital and approximately 51.89% of the aggregate voting power of our total issued and outstanding share capital as of the date of this annual report. As a result of the dual-class share structure and the concentration of ownership, holders of Class B Ordinary Shares have considerable influence over matters such as decisions regarding mergers and consolidations, election of directors and other significant corporate actions. Such holders may take actions that are not in the best interest of us or our other shareholders. This concentration of ownership may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company, which could have the effect of depriving our other shareholders of the opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of our company and may reduce the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares. This concentrated control will limit your ability to influence corporate matters and could discourage others from pursuing any potential merger, takeover or other change of control transactions that holders of Class A Ordinary Shares may view as beneficial.

***If securities or industry analysts do not publish or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, or if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our Class A Ordinary Shares, the market price for our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading volume could decline.***

The trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares depends in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. If research analysts do not establish and maintain adequate research coverage or if one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades our Class A Ordinary Shares or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market price for our Class A Ordinary Shares would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of the Company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which, in turn, could cause the market price or trading volume for our Class A Ordinary Shares to decline.

***The conversion by the holders of Class B Ordinary Shares into Class A Ordinary Shares will result in a dilution of the percentage ownership of the existing holders of Class A Ordinary Shares within their class of Ordinary Shares.***

Holders of Class B Ordinary Shares may convert each Class B Ordinary Shares into one fully paid Class A Ordinary Shares at any time. The right to convert is exercisable by the holder of the Class B Ordinary Shares by delivering a written notice to the Company that such holder elects to convert a specified number of Class B Ordinary Shares into Class A Ordinary Shares. In no event shall Class A Ordinary Shares be convertible into Class B Ordinary Shares.

In addition, upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

(i) any sale, transfer, assignment or disposition of Class B Ordinary Shares by a holder thereof to any person which is not an affiliate of such holder;

(ii) a change of beneficial ownership of any Class B Ordinary Shares as a result of which any person who is not an affiliate of the holders of such Ordinary Shares becomes a beneficial owner of such Ordinary Shares;

(iii) the death of Zou Junming Terence;

(iv) the incapacity of Zou Junming Terence (as determined by a certified medical professional); or

(v) the effective date of termination of Zou Junming Terence's directorship or employment,

in relation to paragraphs (i) and (ii) only, the Class B Ordinary Shares held by the relevant holder and, in relation to paragraphs (iii), (iv) and (v) only, the Class B Ordinary Shares held by Zou Junming Terence, shall be automatically and immediately converted into an equal number of Class A Ordinary Shares.

Accordingly, the conversion by any holder of Class B Ordinary Shares held by it into Class A Ordinary Shares will result in a dilution of the percentage ownership of the existing holders of Class A Ordinary Shares within their class of Ordinary Shares.

***We may not be able to declare dividends in the future.***

We are not legally or contractually required to pay dividends and any determination to pay dividends in the future will be entirely at the discretion of our Board, taking into consideration a number of factors including our level of cash and retained earnings, our financial performance, capital expenditure and expansion plans, working capital requirements and general financial condition, the ability of our subsidiaries to declare and pay dividends to our Company and any applicable restrictions and any other factors that our Board may deem relevant.

Pursuant to the Companies Act, no dividends may be paid except out of profits or share premium, and provided that in no circumstances may a dividend be paid if this would result in our company being unable to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. Our ability to declare dividends to our shareholders in the future will be contingent on our future financial performance and distributable reserves of our Company. This is in turn dependent on our ability to implement our future plans, and on regulatory, competitive and technical factors and other factors such as general economic conditions, demand for our ride-hailing and quick commerce services and other factors exclusive to the mobility and quick commerce industry, many of which are beyond our control. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business operations, prospects, financial position and results of operations, and hence there is no assurance that we will be able to pay dividends to our shareholders.

The receipt of dividends from our subsidiaries may also be affected by the passage of new laws, adoption of new regulations and other events outside our control, and our subsidiaries may not continue to meet the applicable legal and regulatory requirements for the payment of dividends in the future. Source withholding tax and exchange rate fluctuations may also apply to dividends and distributions from our subsidiaries to us. If our subsidiaries stop paying dividends or reduce the amount of the dividends they pay to our Company, or dividends become subject to increased tax because of changes in ownership of our subsidiaries or changes in tax laws or treaties, it would have an adverse effect on our ability to pay dividends on our Shares.

Further, in the event that we are required to enter into any loan arrangements with any financial institutions, covenants in the loan agreements may also limit when and how much dividends we can declare and pay out.

**ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY**

**4. A. History and Development of the Company**

**Corporate History**

Our Company, Ryde Group Ltd, was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on February 21, 2023 under the Companies Act as an exempted company with limited liability. We currently operate in Singapore, with our core businesses in the following segments:

(i) mobility,
 where we provide on-demand and scheduled carpooling and ride-hailing services, matching riders to our driver partners; and

(ii) quick
 commerce, where we provide on-demand, scheduled, and multi-stop parcel delivery services.

We set out below our key milestones, which show the growth journey of our Group and development of our service offerings throughout the years.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Year** | **Milestone** |
| 2014 | Ryde Technologies Pte. Ltd. was founded by Mr. Terence Zou, our chairman and CEO. At this point in time, well known players Uber and Grab had begun to provide ride hailing services for private hire drivers. We differentiated ourselves by intending to provide an on-demand carpooling offering via our mobile app, with the aim of providing a cleaner, greener, and more efficient way for point-to-point transport users in Singapore to get around. We had a vision to become a technology-focused "Super mobility app" where multiple mobility tools can be accessed and function seamlessly out of a single app, offering ultimate convenience and reliability for consumers. |
| 2015 | We launched our on-demand carpooling app to market with the intention of growing our business within the carpooling vertical. |
| 2016 | As a young company, we required resources in order to advance our technology capabilities. To this end, we raised S$1 million from a venture capital company. The funds were used to grow our in-house technology team, improving our technology offerings, as well as for initiatives to grow our driver partner supply. |
| 2017 | Our in-house technology team identified that, though our carpooling app was able to leverage the technology to provide on-demand carpooling services, the traditional taxi industry in Singapore did not appear to be able to fully utilize the benefits of such technological advances, leading to what we believe was a less than ideal consumer experience, driven by issues such as long wait times for taxis, and acceptance of limited types of non-cash payments or cash-only payments.<br>To this end, we expanded our service offerings to include ride-hailing services for taxis. Our first taxi partnership was with a Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited ("SGX-ST") listed transport company. We onboarded their taxis onto our platform, enabling their taxi drivers to accept taxi-bookings via services integration with our app, as well as allowing our mobile app to connect with their technology infrastructure where needed. Our expansion efforts were supported by the venture capital company that invested an additional S$2.5 million to aid us in further development of our technology infrastructure. |

| | |
|:---|:---|
| 2018 | We addressed a gap in the market and launched our on-demand pet-friendly travel option, RydePET in February 2018.<br>In March 2018, Grab acquired Uber's Southeast Asia operations, which included Singapore. Uber's exit from the Singapore market, coupled with our success in executing ride-hailing for taxis via our partnership with the SGX-ST listed transport company, prompted us to seize the opportunity to expand our ride-hailing services by entering the private hire driver space.<br>In May 2018, we became a full-fledged ride-hailing provider as we launched our RydeX service, which comprised of private hire driver fleets.<br>Our expansion to becoming a full-fledged ride-hailing provider, providing both carpooling and ride-hailing, led us to continue to focus on innovating mobility related lifestyle offerings. To this end, we piloted RydeSEND, our on-demand parcel delivery service, with a beta version launch in September. |
| 2019.0 | Facing stiffer competition following the launch of Gojek's ride-hailing services in late 2018, we embarked on a strategy to keep our operations lean, charging a competitive commission and platform fee to driver partners and consumers respectively, which helped to entice drivers to join our platform, while keeping consumer demand stable. Bearing in mind the importance of growing our driver partner supply with the greater competition present, we partnered with another transport company to enable their taxi drivers to accept taxi-bookings via services integration with our app, increasing our ride-hailing supply of taxis. |
| 2020.0 | We continued to focus on enhancing our technology platform in order to remain as a low cost, high quality, and convenient choice for consumers to access mobility or parcel delivery services. In January, DLG Ventures Pte. Ltd. ("DLG") came onboard as an investor, providing S$2.3 million in capital to support us in building up our technology team and offerings. With DLG's support, we have been able to expand our technology team, which will enable us to enhance our technology platform.

**4. B. Business Overview**

**Overview**

Our mission is to positively impact the lives of all drivers through leveraging technology to better facilitate the movement of people and goods.

Our vision is to become a "Super mobility app" where multiple mobility tools can be accessed and function seamlessly out of a single app, offering ultimate convenience and reliability for our customers.

We believe that the key to the success of our platform is our large network of driver partners and consumers, proprietary technology, operational excellence, and service expertise, which together, help facilitate the movement of people and goods from one point to another. We currently only operate in Singapore and have no business operations outside of Singapore. Our core businesses are in the following segments:

(a) **Mobility.** We provide on-demand and scheduled carpooling and ride-hailing services, matching riders to our driver partners.

(b) **Quick Commerce.** We provide on-demand, scheduled, and multi-stop parcel delivery services.

***Mobility***

Our mobility business segment includes carpooling and ride-hailing.

Carpooling refers to services that connect riders with driver partners who provide rides in a variety of vehicles, such as cars of different seating capacities. Carpooling is about sharing rides and is provided via our RydePOOL service in our mobile app. We launched carpooling through our RydePOOL service in Singapore. RydePOOL allows real-time, on-demand bookings as well as advance bookings via our schedule pickup function, and only allows seating capacity for one rider per request, while riders may have to share their ride with other riders. Driver partners may also bring along up to one (1) friend or family member to sit in the front of the car during the trip.

Ride-hailing refers to services that connect riders with private-hire or taxi drivers, with the rider having the option to choose the type of ride from a variety of vehicles, such as cars of different seating capacities and make. We started off with only carpooling services, but ride-hailing services was a natural adjacency for us as we have the technology and the platform to enable it. Our ride-hailing services allow riders to determine the number of seats they require for the trip, and offers real-time, on-demand bookings as well as advance bookings and multi-stop options. We started to grow our offerings in this space and currently have the following different service offerings: RydeX, RydeXL, RydeLUXE, RydeFLASH, RydePET, and RydeTAXI services.

● RydeX
 is our basic on-demand ride-hailing service, with rider capacity of between one (1) to four (4) people, and trips assigned to private
 hire or taxi drivers. No pets are allowed on RydeX trips.

● RydeXL
 is our basic on-demand ride-hailing service should riders need a larger capacity of up to six (6) people. Trips are assigned to private
 hire drivers only, and no pets are allowed on RydeXL trips.

● RydeLUXE
 is our premium service within the Ryde App, designed for business executives, tourists, and customers seeking a luxurious ride for
 special occasions. It features professional drivers operating private-hire vehicles such as Toyota's Alphard and Vellfire,
 with seating for up to six (6) passengers. Offering elevated comfort, service quality, and exclusivity, RydeLUXE provides a refined
 experience beyond Ryde XL.

● RydeFLASH
 assigns our riders to either private hire, taxi drivers or carpool drivers, and riders pay for the number of seats of their choice,
 with the option of between one (1) to four (4) seats. Driver partners may bring along up to one (1) friend or family member to sit
 in the front of the car during the trip. We aim to provide RydeFLASH riders with the fastest ride option available, tapping driver
 partners from all three (3) fleet types.

● RydePET
 is our household-pet-friendly transport option and is available to private hire and taxi drivers and allows up to two (2) riders,
 excluding pets, onboard. For pets, we allow a maximum of two (2) medium sized pets or one (1) large sized pet. An example of medium
 sized pets would be a Maltese or a Cat, and a large sized one would be a Golden Retriever. Other arrangements (at the driver partner's
 discretion) are available as well.

● RydeTAXI
 offers our riders an option to book taxis that they would otherwise have had to flag down on the road. We offer four (4)-seater taxis
 on our platform and riders will pay metered taxi fares. When a rider books for RydeTAXI, the flag down fare and regular booking fees
 are applicable, and actual charges will vary among different taxi companies. All fees for Standard and/or Premium taxis follow that
 of the respective taxi company as well.

***Quick Commerce***

Quick Commerce is a package delivery booking service, which enables driver partners to accept bookings for package delivery services through our driver partner app. Consumers can arrange for instant deliveries and cater for different package sizes. E-commerce, Food and Beverage businesses and social sellers can utilize our last mile delivery services to their customers as an option as well. We provide our quick commerce service through our RydeSEND offering, which comprises of real-time on-demand, scheduled, and multi-stop parcel delivery services.

RydeSEND offers delivery of up to six (6) destinations in a single trip. We send small items within 50 minutes of pickup and generally 30 minutes for each subsequent additional stop. The total weight limit is up to 8kg per delivery trip, and a size limit of 36,000cm<sup>3</sup> (40cm x 30cm x 30cm).

We provide insurance through RydeSEND Guarantee. RydeSEND Guarantee provides compensation for delivery items in the case of loss or damage. Our liability for any loss of or damage to delivery Items is limited to the value of the delivery item(s) or S$100 per delivery trip, whichever is lower. One delivery trip is defined as a delivery order with one (1) unique trip identification number, which may include one (1) or more stops.

We use a proprietary algorithm-based routing system to optimize our routes, increasing delivery efficiency. Our multi-stop parcel delivery services offer merchants that need to dispatch multiple small items on demand, a convenient yet cost efficient delivery solution.

The following table summarizes the key features of our Quick Commerce service, RydeSEND:

***Consumer App Key Features***

Consumers may comprise riders that utilize our mobility segment offerings, or users that utilize our delivery services via our quick commerce offering. The key to our app is the relevance of our mobility specific offerings to consumers' lives. We want to be the first service provider that comes to the consumers' mind when they have transportation related needs. At a touch of a button, consumers have access to various point to point transport and parcel delivery offerings on our platform through a single mobile application.

Tight knit integration across the offerings available through our platform provides, we believe, a consistently high-quality experience for consumers and encourages them to use more of the offerings on our platform. Integration across offerings on our platform also strengthens the app ecosystem, enabling the launch of new innovative service offerings. For example, linking deliveries and point to point transport offerings on our platform, we have enabled a unique driver partner to be able to provide both types of offerings. Further, linking insurance's offerings on our platform, we have enabled a ride-based coverage, which provides consumers free insurance coverage during their trips and also serves as an outreach marketing tool for these insurance companies to promote brand awareness among our diverse consumer base.

Payments

RydePay is our digital payments solution that allows users to pay and/or top-up by card and to pay by RydeCoins. We may enhance our RydePay offerings in the future, for example by allowing consumers to make online and offline electronic payments using their mobile wallet. We will enable consumers that do not have access to a bank account to add money to their mobile wallet through our network of driver partners, amongst other top up channels. RydePay will also enable our driver partners to receive digital payments for their services, which we expect will give them access to a larger consumer base, as well as save them the hassle and risk of having to handle cash payments.

RydeCoins offer a payment option in our app by using it as our own in-house payment token, exclusively usable within our platform for the services we offer, with a focus to incentivise customers and consumers for their loyalty through cashback via RydeCoins which may be utilised on future rides. Users can top up RydeCoins in their Ryde app using a variety of credit cards, with a top up limit of S$1,000 per transaction, and a minimum top up amount of S$5. The maximum amount a RydeCoin wallet can hold is S$1,000. As of the date of this annual report, we do not accept bitcoin or any other form of cryptocurrency as a payment method for our services. RydeCoins are solely intended for use within our platform and are non-refundable and cannot be redeemed, exchanged, transferred or converted into cash or utilised for any transactions outside of our services. They are valid for six months from the last wallet transaction.

Subscription Plan

Ryde+ is a value subscription plan that unlocks savings across selected Ryde services for a fixed monthly fee. As at the date of this annual report, Ryde+ is priced at S$19.99 (inclusive of GST) per month or S$49.99 (inclusive of GST) per quarter, with an auto-renewing payment for the convenience of our consumers. Ryde+ members enjoy benefits such as priority matching, that aims to reduce the amount of time it takes for them to be matched with a driver, unlimited 'cashback' by way of RydeCoins for ride-hailing, and deliveries, provided that certain conditions are met, and exclusive access to special deals provided by our partners. Consumers may use the "cashback" earned in the form of RydeCoins for their future trips.

To opt in, consumers must fulfil the minimum criteria set which is based on their rider ratings and cancellation ratings. By ensuring Ryde+ is only available to consumers with positive ratings, we aim to foster a respectable, like-minded, and safe Ryde community. Should riders' ratings drop below the required threshold, they will not be eligible for the "cashback" bonuses until they take enough rides to pull up their ratings enough to qualify for benefits again.

Fees

The fee charged to our riders comprises:

1. a
 platform fee per trip, that we believe is in line with the industry practice of similar companies;

2. a
 base fare which is calculated by way of an algorithm;

3. a
 payment transaction fee for cashless transactions;

4. a
 standard fixed price for each additional stop made during a trip (if applicable); and

5. toll
 charge (only applicable for ride-hailing and carpooling services)

We also implement a cancellation fee and waiting fee on our riders. These fees are appliable in two specific scenarios: firstly, if a rider cancels a trip within a stipulated timeframe upon being matched with a driver partner, and secondly, if a driver partner is obligated to wait for a duration exceeding a specified timeframe upon reaching the designated destination.

To enhance consumer attraction and retention, we offer incentives to both our Ryde+ members and non-Ryde+ members. Ryde+ members enjoy exclusive benefits, including trip bonuses, where they receive cashback in RydeCoins. This cashback is subject to a predetermined cap on the number of trips eligible for the bonus. Additionally, Ryde+ members also receive a predetermined percentage of unlimited cashback in RydeCoins for selected trips. On the other hand, non-Ryde+ members are also incentivized through our referral program. When existing consumers refer new consumers, they receive referral bonuses, the specific amount of which is determined by us, considering various factors and promotions. Furthermore, non-Ryde+ members receive a top-up bonus, where they are rewarded with additional RydeCoins upon topping up a specific amount on our platform. These incentives are designed to promote consumer engagement and loyalty.

To manage the challenges associated with our growing base of consumers while also increasing revenues, we provide cash incentives to our driver partners. These incentives and the amount awarded are contingent upon and determined by the number of trips they complete within their respective incentive cycles. By aligning driver incentives with the number of trips they complete, we are able to create a system which incentivizes our drivers to complete more trips which in turn contributes to further revenue for us. The incentive cycles commence when driver partners start utilizing the Ryde platform and conclude according to the specific number of days determined by us in our weekly strategic planning. They are performance-driven, meaning that the amount awarded is linked to the driver partners' trip completion metrics. Once the criteria for earning the incentives have been met, we proceed to payout the incentives to our driver partners. This approach not only motivates driver partners to increase their trip count but also contributes to our revenue growth, as the increase in the number of completed trips signifies higher utilization rate of our services and thereby an increase in our consumer base, and in turn, an increase in revenue of the Company. In order to ensure that we maintain a profitable margin when implementing these incentives whilst maintaining an attractive reward structure for our driver partners, we carefully adjust the percentage of incentives provided to our driver partners during our weekly strategic meetings, factoring in our operational needs. To illustrate, our consumers fully cover toll charges, and the base fare for each trip is determined using an algorithm which is reviewed monthly to account for the basic costs associated, such as drivers' operational expenses and overhead.

Business Profiles

Under our Business Profile offering, business users can track their business expenses by signing up with their work email address and manage their business rides via our app. We help business users claim their business expenses by consolidating their ride receipts and generating monthly statements.

***Driver Partner App Key Features***

Our app for driver partners supports them across our mobility and quick commerce segments. Using the same mobile application, our driver partners are able to perform a variety of tasks including managing their profile and workflows, tracking their earnings and rewards, and accessing payment.

Our app for driver partners is integrated across our segments, enabling them to seamlessly switch between bookings for the mobility and quick commerce segments, optimizing their time more effectively. For example, a driver partner might begin his day delivering parcels, then move on to ferrying passengers to work, all done using the same driver partner app.

According to the Land Transport Authority of Singapore, Singapore's road network connects all corners of the island with more than 9,000 land-km of roads and expressways. Our routing and mapping technologies allow us to add new or smaller streets and more localized points of interest to our maps, which improve the quality of our driver partners' experience on our platform with more accurate routing and navigation. This enables shorter travel times and makes it easier to locate passengers, hence improving our driver partners' productivity and earnings.

Safety of both our driver partners and consumers is of utmost importance to us. Our driver partners undergo a quick but thorough onboarding process, where they go through our safety and quality requirements and are trained on how to use the application to maximize their earnings as well as remain safe on the platform. We aim to continue raising the bar for safety, going beyond minimum requirements set forth by regulators. Our key initiatives include proof of valid driver license, valid policy of insurance, and requirements for suitable and safe vehicles and engine size.

We have created a platform that allows drivers and passengers to communicate with each other during their journey. Additionally, we have included a feature called Smart Response, which offers suggested one-click responses to messages. We have also integrated safety measures such as Share Trip as well as Lost and Found features to help ensure the well-being of both drivers and passengers.

Furthermore, we have developed our own mobile telematics technology that uses data from a driver's phone to gather location-based information and driving behavior. Our algorithms allow us to detect and manage incidents, identify risky driving patterns, and ultimately improve the safety of everyone involved.

***Network Effects and Platform Synergies***

The foundation of our marketplace business is our network. We connect demand (riders) to supply (driver partners) and to ensure riders are allocated to the nearest, fastest driver partner available, a large hyperlocal network of both riders and driver partners is imperative for our business to thrive.

To create a liquidity network effect, we start by managing supply. We began in 2014 by onboarding driver partners through door-to-door recruitment drives and engaging drivers at carparks to build our initial network. We also created awareness among consumers by conducting roadshows and through the distribution of flyers at carparks, etc. Our strategy was to grow the number of driver partners to improve our market coverage, which will lead to lower average wait times, and attract more riders to our platform. More riders will lead to an increased number of trips and consequently higher driver partner utilization and earnings for the driver partners. This in turn will attract more driver partners and enable us to reduce fares for consumers through the effects of dynamic pricing. This virtuous cycle is important to us as there is a need to create the largest network liquidity possible in a particular geographical location in order for our business to function at its most optimal level.

We also experience benefits from having high network liquidity across different offerings on our platform as we are able to offer multiple service offerings to our customers. For example, driver partners offering carpooling on our platform are able to deliver parcels through RydeSEND as well. A network liquidity effect plays a part in helping us increase our market share over time, as it makes our Mobility and Quick Commerce offerings more convenient and cost-competitive versus other forms of transportation, such as personal vehicle usage and ownership, or other types of delivery services.

We have built a network through our App to connect driver partners and riders. Our network becomes more intelligent with every additional trip as we analyze data and learn to operate more efficiently.

We intend to continue to provide new tools for our users that we believe will further strengthen our platform and existing offerings. We can easily launch, and scale new tools offered on our platform by leveraging on our existing network, technology, and service offering expertise. Each new tool adds nodes to our network and can strengthen these shared capabilities, allowing us to launch additional services more effectively. For example, RydeSEND (1) is used by many of our same customers who use our carpool and ride-hailing services (2) is built using our existing technology, and (3) has grown through the use of the same operation teams that built our carpool and ride-hailing services. Each new service or offering enables us to invest more efficiently because we share innovations and investments across our platform offerings. These synergies lower our costs and allow us to invest with scale that becomes increasingly efficient as we grow with each new service or offering.

***Proprietary Technology***

We have built proprietary marketplace and routing technologies. Our marketplace technologies use algorithms to predict demand, match riders and driver partners, and create dynamic pricing.

***Insurance***

We maintain insurance coverage that we believe is relevant for our businesses and operations. Our insurance includes work injury compensation, director and officer liability insurance and complimentary insurance which provides exclusive coverage for riders using the Ryde platform in respect of a particular trip taken by our riders. Such complimentary insurance to riders who make trips using our Ryde platform consists of an accidental death benefit, total and permanent disability due to an accident, accidental medical expense reimbursement, emergency assistance benefit in the event of an accident, and cancellation fee waiver guarantee. Such insurance offered is specific to the foregoing instance only and does not purport to include any other insurance coverage. We cannot guarantee, however, that we will not incur any losses or be the subject of any claims that exceed the scope of the relevant insurance coverage. We reassess our insurance structure at each renewal, taking into account both insurance market conditions and the expansion and development of our business.

***Competition***

We operate a technology platform that provides a range of ride-hailing, carpooling and delivery focused offerings in Singapore. Our vision is to be a super mobility app. The segments in which we operate are extremely competitive and are characterized by ever changing user preferences and frequent introductions of new offerings. We face competition in each of our segments from single market and regional competitors and single segment and multiple segment players. We compete to attract, engage, and retain driver partners and enable access to consumers based primarily on the following criteria:

● **Driver Partners**. We compete based on, among others, our ability to provide flexible income opportunities, attractive earnings potential,
 in part due to our competitive commissions policy, and the quality of our driver partner community and work experience. We believe
 that we are positioned favorably, driven by the breadth of our support for driver partners, including technology-driven tools and
 services that enable them to increase their productivity and earnings. We focus on supporting our driver partners by providing them
 training and cash incentives which are contingent upon and determined by the number of trips they complete within their respective
 incentive cycles.

● **Riders and consumers**. We compete to enable driver partners to be able to attract, engage and retain consumers based on, among other
 things, convenience, customer service, reliability and value of offerings on our platform. We believe we are positioned favorably
 based on safety, value, and quality of offerings on our platform. The integration of mobility focused offerings on our platform provides
 consumers with one-stop access to transport or delivery needs, differentiating us from many of our competitors.

Grab, Gojek, TADA and taxi operators are key competitors in Singapore within the ride-hailing and point-to-point transport space. Generally, consumers accessing our platform have alternatives, including personal vehicle use, and other transportation options, for example public transport.

***Legal Proceedings***

From time to time, we may become involved in actions, claims, suits, and other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business, including assertions by third parties relating to intellectual property infringement, breaches of contract or warranties or employment-related matters. We are not currently a party to any actions, claims, suits or other legal proceedings the outcome of which management believes, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

**Regulation**

This section sets forth a summary of the material laws and regulations that affect our Group's business and operations in Singapore. Information contained in this section should not be construed as a comprehensive summary nor detailed analysis of laws and regulations applicable to the business and operations of our Group. This overview is provided as general information only and not intended to be a substitute for professional advice. You should consult your own advisers regarding the implication of the laws and regulations of Singapore on our business and operations.

**Singapore**

***Workplace Safety and Health Act***

The Workplace Safety and Health Act 2006 of Singapore (the "WSHA") is the principal legislation governing the safety, health and welfare of persons at work in workplaces. Among other things, the WSHA imposes a duty on every employer and every principal (which would include us) to take, so far as is reasonably practicable, such measures as are necessary to ensure the safety and health of its employees, and any contractor, any direct or indirect subcontractor, and any employee employed by such contractor or subcontractor, when at work.

The general penalties for non-compliance with the WSHA include the imposition of fines up to the amount of S$1,000,000 in the case of a body corporate. Further or other penalties may apply in the case of repeat offences or specific offences under the WSHA or its subsidiary legislation.

***Employment Act***

The Employment Act 1968 of Singapore, or the Singapore EA, sets out the basic terms and conditions of employment and the rights and responsibilities of employers as well as employees. With effect from April 1, 2019, the Singapore EA extends to all employees, including persons employed in managerial or executive positions, with certain exceptions.

The Singapore EA prescribes certain minimum conditions of service that employers are required to provide to their employees, including (i) minimum days of statutory annual and sick leave; (ii) paid public holidays; (iii) statutory protection against wrongful dismissal; (iv) provision of key employment terms in writing; and (v) statutory maternity leave and childcare leave benefits. In addition, certain statutory protections relating to overtime and hours of work are prescribed under the Singapore EA, but only apply to limited categories of employees, such as an employee (other than a workman) who is not employed in a managerial or executive position and who receives a salary of up to S$2,600 a month ("relevant employee"). Section 38(8) of the Singapore EA provides that a relevant employee is not allowed to work for more than 12 hours in any one day except in specified circumstances, such as where the work is essential to the life of the community, defense or security. In addition, section 38(5) of the Singapore EA limits the extent of overtime work that a relevant employee can perform, to 72 hours a month.

Other employment-related benefits which are prescribed by law include (i) contributions to be made by an employer to the Central Provident Fund, under the Central Provident Fund Act 1953 of Singapore in respect of each employee who is a citizen or permanent resident of Singapore; (ii) the provision of statutory maternity, paternity, childcare, adoption, unpaid infant care and shared parental leave benefits (in each case subject to the fulfilment of certain eligibility criteria) under the Child Development Co-savings Act 2001 of Singapore; (iii) statutory protections against dismissal on the grounds of age, and statutory requirements to offer re-employment to an employee who attains the prescribed minimum retirement age, under the Retirement and Re-employment Act 1993 of Singapore; and (iv) statutory requirements relating to work injury compensation, and workplace safety and health, under the Work Injury Compensation Act 2019 of Singapore and the Workplace Safety and Health Act 2006 of Singapore, respectively.

***Road Traffic Act 1961 of Singapore ("RTA")***

There are no laws in Singapore which specifically govern the provision of our quick commerce package delivery services in Singapore. However, certain rules under the RTA and its subsidiary legislation prohibit chauffeured private hire car drivers and taxi drivers from providing any courier pick-up and delivery service using their chauffeured private hire car or taxi, without the prior approval of the Registrar of Vehicles appointed under the RTA. Such requirements may apply to the driver partners who provide package delivery services under our quick commerce segment. We have, on behalf of our driver partners and subject to certain terms and conditions, obtained approval from the Registrar of Vehicles in respect to the provision of courier pick-up and delivery services by such driver partners. The penalties for non-compliance with the terms and conditions of the aforesaid approval include revocation of the approval.

***Point-to-Point Passenger Transport Industry Act 2019***

The Point-to-Point Passenger Transport Industry Act 2019 of Singapore (the "PPPTIA") is intended to regulate the point-to-point passenger transport services industry in order to (a) to facilitate the delivery of safe, reliable, efficient and customer-focused point-to-point passenger transport services in Singapore; and (b) to enable the development and operation of innovative and accessible point-to-point passenger transport services which contribute to the mobility and safety of people in Singapore.

It is the principal piece of legislation that covers the ride-hailing booking services provided by us including RydePOOL, RydeX, RydeXL, RydeLUXE, RydeFLASH, RydePET and RydeTAXI. Licensees are required to, among other things, comply with the conditions set out in their licenses, and to comply with any directions, codes of practice and/or emergency directives issued by the Land Transport Authority of Singapore. We have obtained the relevant licenses under the PPPTIA to provide our carpooling and ride hailing booking services in Singapore.

Additionally, ride-hailing licensees under the PPPTIA are required to ensure that the ride-hailing fares associated with their services are consistent with the pricing policies put in place by the Public Transport Council of Singapore.

Under the conditions of the licenses granted to us under the PPPTIA, we are also required to ensure that our driver partners are compliant with certain legislative requirements relating to motor vehicle insurance and public service vehicle licensing.

The penalties for non-compliance with the conditions of the licenses granted under the PPPTIA include revocation or suspension of the licenses and/or the imposition of financial penalties up to the amount of 10% of the licensee's annual turnover or S$100,000 per instance of non-compliance.

The penalties for non-compliance with the pricing policies put in place by the Public Transport Council of Singapore include the imposition of fines up to the amount of S$100,000 and/or imprisonment for a term of up to six months.

***Payment Services Act***

The Monetary Authority of Singapore ("MAS") regulates persons who carry on the business of providing certain regulated payment services in Singapore under the Payment Services Act 2019 which came into force on January 28, 2020 (the "PS Act"). Unless excluded or exempted, a person must obtain and have in force the relevant license to carry on a business in providing regulated payment services under the PS Act, namely, account issuance service, e-money issuance service, domestic money transfer service, cross-border money transfer service, merchant acquisition service, digital payment token service, and money-changing service.

In addition to the foregoing, the Payment Services (Amendment) Regulations came into operation on 4 April 2024 and 4 October 2024.

Under the PS Act, licensees may generally be subject to obligations relating to general approval requirements for changes of control and the appointment of the CEO and directors, general notification and record-keeping requirements, audit requirements, base capital requirements, anti-money laundering requirements, the requirement to furnish security (for a major payment institution), the requirement to safeguard customer monies (for certain major payment institutions), and other applicable requirements. Licensees are expected to implement certain systems, processes and controls in line with the various notices and guidelines published by the MAS, including without limitation the MAS' Guidelines on Risk Management Practices – Technology Risk applicable to financial institutions in Singapore. Non-compliance with the above could potentially result in penalties under the PS Act including revocation or suspension of the license, civil damages claims, and criminal penalties for the respective licensee and/or its officers including fines with potential for additional amounts for ongoing non-compliance, for the duration of the non-compliance, and (in the case of officers) imprisonment, for each offence.

***Personal Data Protection Act 2012***

*Data Protection Obligations*

The Personal Data Protection Act 2012 of Singapore ("PDPA") establishes the baseline regime for the protection of personal data in Singapore. The PDPA applies to all organizations that collect, use, disclose, and/or process personal data. The PDPA is administered and enforced by the Personal Data Protection Commission ("PDPC"). In this regard, "personal data" as defined under the PDPA refers to data, whether true or not, about an individual who can be identified from that data or other information to which the organization has or is likely to have access to.

An organization is required to comply with, amongst other things, the data protection obligations prescribed by the PDPA, which may be summarized as follows:

(a) Consent
 obligation – the consent of individuals must be obtained before collecting, using, disclosing and/or processing their personal
 data, unless an exception applies. Additionally, an organization must allow the withdrawal of consent by an individual which has
 been given or is deemed to have been given;

(b) *Purpose limitation obligation* – personal data must be collected, used, disclosed, and/or processed only for purposes that a reasonable
 person would consider appropriate in the circumstances, and if applicable, have been notified to the individual concerned;

(c) *Notification obligation* – individuals must be notified of the purposes for the collection, use, disclosure, and/or processing of their
 personal data, prior to such collection, use, disclosure, and/or processing;

(d) *Access and correction obligations* – when requested by an individual and unless an exception applies, an organization must: (i)
 provide that individual with access to his personal data in the possession or under the control of the organization and information
 about the ways in which his personal data may have been used or disclosed during the past year, and/or (ii) correct an error or omission
 in his personal data that is in the possession or under the control of the organization;

(e) *Accuracy obligation* – an organization must make reasonable efforts to ensure that personal data collected by or on its behalf is
 accurate and complete if such data is likely to be used by the organization to make a decision affecting the individual to whom the
 personal data relates or if such data is likely to be disclosed to another organization;

(f) *Protection obligation* – an organization must implement reasonable security arrangements to protect personal data in its possession
 or under its control from (i) unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal or similar risks,
 and (ii) the loss of any storage medium or device on which personal data is stored;

(g) *Retention limitation obligation* – an organization must anonymize or must not keep personal data for longer than it is necessary to
 fulfill; (i) the purposes for which it was collected, or (ii) a legal or business purpose;

(h) *Transfer limitation obligation* – personal data must not be transferred out of Singapore except in accordance with the requirements
 prescribed under the PDPA. In this regard, an organization must ensure that the recipient of the personal data in that country outside
 Singapore is bound by legally enforceable obligations to provide the transferred personal data a standard of protection that is at
 least comparable to the protection under the PDPA;

(i) *Accountability obligation* – an organization must implement the necessary policies and procedures in order to meet its obligations under
 the PDPA, communicate and inform their staff about these policies and procedures, as well as make information of such policies and
 procedures available on request. In addition, an organization must develop a process to receive and respond to data-related complaints,
 and must designate at least one individual as the data protection officer to oversee the organization's compliance with the
 PDPA;

(j) *Data breach notification obligation* - an organization must notify the PDPC and/or the affected individuals if it has suffered a data
 breach that meets the notification thresholds prescribed under the PDPA (i.e. the data breach is or is likely to be of significant
 scale, or has caused or is likely to cause significant harm to the affected individuals). The organization is expected to expeditiously
 assess the severity of the breach, and the timeline to notify the PDPC is 3 calendar days of the organization assessing that a notification
 threshold has been met; and

(k) *Data portability obligation* – the data portability obligation (which is not yet in force as at the date of this annual report)
 grants individuals with an existing direct relationship with an organization the right to request for a copy of their personal data
 to be transmitted in a commonly used machine-readable format to another organization which has a business presence in Singapore.
 The exact scope and applicability of this right will be delineated by the relevant regulations and guidelines to be published by
 the PDPC.

The maximum financial penalty that can be imposed on organizations is S$1 million, or 10% of the organization's annual turnover in Singapore, whichever is higher. The severity of the penalties will be assessed based on, amongst other things, the amount of personal data involved, and the degree of harm caused to individuals.

***Platform Workers Act 2024***

The Platform Workers Act 2024, effective January 1, 2025, is a new law in Singapore designed to protect individuals working in the gig economy, such as delivery drivers and private-hire drivers. This Act establishes a unique worker classification for these individuals, distinct from employees and freelancers. It mandates or encourages contributions to the Central Provident Fund (CPF) by both the platform operators and platform workers, depending on the worker's age. The Act also ensures financial protection for work-related injuries and establishes a framework for platform workers to have their concerns addressed collectively.

**Seasonality**

We typically expect to experience seasonal impacts to our operating results, as we generate lower number of trips in our first quarter compared to other quarters due in part to regional holiday, such as lunar new year. Additionally, other festivities like Christmas, the new year celebration, and Ramadan's fasting month impact the demand for mobility and quick commerce services, as well as the availability of driver partners. Weather conditions, like the rainy season, also contribute to seasonal fluctuations in our operating results.

**D. Property, Plant and Equipment**

**Facilities**

Our corporate headquarters is located at 7500A Beach Road, #16-310, The Plaza, Singapore 199591. We leased an aggregate of approximately 119 square meters of offices as of December 31, 2025. Our lease agreement for our headquarters has a term that expires in October 2026. We do not foresee any issues with renewing our lease agreement in the near future. However, if for whatever reason, our lease agreement is not renewed, we do not foresee any issues relocating to an alternative location in Singapore that provide similar facilities.

We believe that our facilities are adequate to meet our needs for the immediate future, and that, should it be needed, suitable additional space will be available to accommodate any such expansion of our operations.

**Intellectual Property**

We recognize the importance of protecting and enforcing our intellectual property rights. We rely on a combination of contractual rights as well as intellectual property controls and procedures to protect our intellectual property rights. These include registering our trademarks and entering into confidentiality agreements, employee intellectual property assignment agreements, and license agreements with our employees, suppliers and other parties.

As of the date of this annual report, we have five registered trademarks with the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore ("IPOS"). We cannot guarantee that any of our trademark applications will result in the registration of those trademarks.

We are the registered holder of two domain names, ("https://www.rydesharing.com" and "www.ryde.io") and have full legal rights over all these domain names for the period for which such domain names are registered.

We generally control access to and use of our proprietary technology and other confidential information with internal and external policies, processes and controls, including network security and contractual protections with employees, contractors and other third parties.

Despite our various efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may still copy or otherwise obtain and use our technology. In addition, as we face increasing competition and as our business grows, we could face allegations that we have infringed the trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets or other intellectual property proprietary of third parties, including of our competitors, strategic partners, investors and other entities with whom we may share information or receive information from, and as a result may be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time to time relating to the intellectual property of others.

**Item 4A. Unresolved Staff Comments**

None.

**ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS**

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this annual report. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in "Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors" and the section titled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements," which you should review for a discussion of some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis and elsewhere in this annual report.

**5. A. Operating Results**

**Factors affecting our performance**

As part of our business model, we earn revenues from fees from transactions completed by the consumers and driver partner who use our services across our mobility and quick commerce solutions. Therefore our revenue is a function of the number of active customers, including both new and returning, transaction on our Ryde app and the fares/rates that we charge. Therefore the key factors affecting our results include our growing consumer and driver base, their recurring volumes per consumer and the fares/rates we charge, which together underpin our revenue growth. Our focus on controlling costs, like incentives to drivers and riders costs and employee expenses supports our profitability and our ability to generate cash and capital.

***Our customer and driver base growth rates***

Our consumer and driver base growth rates which we measure by number of consumers and driver partners, is key to the success of our app and business. To achieve this, we believe in increasing the number of driver partners and consumers using our app, which is facilitated by our focus on creating a super mobility app ecosystem that generates synergies between the supply and demand sides. With this, we expect this ecosystem will grow organically as we continue to use promotions to attract customers to our platform.

***Market competition affecting customer retention rates***

We are facing tough competition in both our segments and the Singapore market. Our competitors are established players or new entrants who offer low-cost alternatives or higher quality services. They may have reputational advantages, better brand recognition, larger marketing budgets, and more supportive regulatory regimes than us. Our competitors may also offer discounted services, driver partners incentives, and consumer incentives, as well as innovative products and alternative pricing models. We may need to adjust our prices, fees, commissions, and marketing expenses in response to competitive pressures. Some of our competitors may consolidate or establish cooperative relationships, which may enhance their resources and offerings. The barriers to entry in our market are low, and driver partners and consumers may choose alternative platforms or services. Our competitors may adopt our product features or innovations that are more attractive to consumers or driver partners, which could reduce our ability to differentiate ourselves from them. As a result of the foregoing, this in turn affect customer and driver retention rates and could impact our revenues and costs. Driver partners and consumers may shift to other platforms based on earning potential, volume of work, overall user experience, and convenience.

***Investment into technology for more products***

We invest in our business, including, among others, such as expanding our quick commerce and mobility offerings, growing our driver partner and consumer base, improving our mobile app, upgrading our technology and infrastructure, and recruiting skilled employees. We also plan to expand our business in Southeast Asia using a hyperlocal approach that requires substantial investments to accommodate the different infrastructure, regulations, systems, and user preferences in each country. Our business model requires significant investments to achieve profitability and remain competitive, which may entail adjusting commissions and offering incentives to driver partners and consumers.

***Strategic partnerships and acquisitions***

We have formed partnerships and alliances with other companies in the past, and will continue to do so in the future. For instance, we recently partnered with an insurance company to offer insurance to our platform users. Such partnerships can lead to increased revenue in several ways, including expanded customer base through greater brand awareness by accessing new customers of the partner who may not have used our services, and new revenue streams. For instance, if we were to partner with companies like a food and beverage chain, we may increase our revenue through food delivery services, a new revenue stream. Partnerships could also help us reduce costs. For example, if we have a partner who has access to a fleet of rental cars, buses, we can access the partner's fleet of vehicles thereby reducing our cost and increasing our revenue stream if we provide bus/van rental services.

***Regulatory environment***

We operate in Singapore's mobility and quick commerce segments, which are subjects to various regulations. These regulations include the evolution of laws related to mobility and quick commerce, data regulations such as data privacy, data localization, data portability, cybersecurity, and advertising, gig economy regulations, anti-trust regulations, economic regulations such as price, supply, safety, health, and environment regulations, foreign ownership restrictions, artificial intelligence regulations, and regulations regarding the provision of online services. Obtaining necessary licenses, permits, and approvals may be challenging as the relevant laws and regulations are still evolving, and we cannot guarantee that we will maintain the licenses and approvals we have obtained. We may be required to make operational adjustments to comply with new regulatory requirements, which could involve significant costs or may not be practicable, and failure to comply with applicable regulations could expose us to regulatory actions such as fines or orders to cease our business activities. Furthermore, our actual or perceived non-compliance could materially and adversely affect our business, operations, financial performance, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.

***Ability to manage our costs***

Our business model involves rewarding both our driver partners and consumers with incentives for using our platform, such as completing a certain number of trips or receiving bonuses and incentives. Our ability to generate more revenue and become profitable depends on our effective use of these bonuses and incentives and gradually reducing the amount of bonuses and incentives paid to both driver partners and consumers, relative to the commissions and fees we receive. If we are unable to achieve this, it could negatively impact our revenue growth, capital raising efforts, and overall profitability, which could ultimately affect our ability to continue operating. Additionally, if we were to decrease the use of bonuses and incentives, it could lead to reduced growth in the number of users and driver partners and ultimately lead to a decline in our revenues, which could have significant adverse effects on our business, financial performance, and prospects.

***Ability to grow our revenue from ride-hailing and quick commerce***

Our ability to grow revenue from ride-hailing and quick commerce services is subject to various factors that may impact our business, financial performance, and prospects. There are inherent challenges and risks that could hinder our ability to sustain and further increase revenue. One key factor is the level of competition in the ride-hailing and quick commerce industry. We operate in a highly competitive market with both local and international players offering similar services. This intense competition can lead to pricing pressures and increased marketing expenses as we strive to attract and retain customers and driver partners. If we are unable to effectively differentiate ourselves or compete on price, our ability to grow revenue may be adversely affected. Additionally, our ability to grow revenue relies on the adoption and satisfaction of our platform by both consumers and driver partners. Factors such as user experience, service reliability, and driver partners availability are critical in attracting and retaining customers. Any negative experiences, safety concerns, or difficulties in recruiting and retaining a sufficient number of driver partners may lead to reduced customer demand and hamper our revenue growth, while we continually invest in technology, innovation, and marketing strategies to enhance our competitive position and increase customer engagement. However, there can be no assurance that we will successfully overcome these challenges, and any failure to do so may have significant adverse effects on our business, financial performance, and revenue growth prospects.

---

Our revenue segments comprised mobility, quick commerce, membership, advertising initiatives and others. Mobility and quick commerce revenue is derived from the service fees paid by driver partners and consumers for use of the platform and related service to connect with consumers and successfully complete a trip or delivery via the platform. Membership subscription fees are paid by the consumers on a monthly or quarterly basis. Advertising initiatives revenue are earned from partners who pay for digital space in our app and website.

In 2025, total revenue increased by 40% to S$12,506,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025 from S$8,950,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Our revenue from mobility services increased by 61% to S$9,308,000 in 2025 driven by the increase in consumer demand. In 2025, revenue from advertising initiatives increased by 5% to S$2,400,000 mainly due to the increase in advertising services value with various business partners. We experienced a decline in revenue from both (i) membership services by 12% mainly due to a reduction in the number of subscribers, and (ii) quick commerce services by 14% arising from a decrease in consumer demand.

---

Other income decreased by 19% from S$103,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024 to S$83,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The decrease was mainly due to decrease in government grants.

***Drivers and riders cost and related expenses***

---

For the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, our drivers and riders cost and related expenses amounted to S$6,956,000 and S$4,599,000 respectively. This increase by 51% is mainly due to the increase in incentives paid to riders and driver partners, and increase in fees related to payment processing.

---

The depreciation and amortization expenses increased by 10% to S$613,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025 from S$559,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024. This was mainly due to increase in intangibles assets, which was attributable to additional developed technology.

Our other expenses decreased by 9% to S$8,945,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025 from S$9,875,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in consultant and advisory fees for investor relations, business strategy, and business development, which decreased to S$1,968,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, from S$3,200,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024. This reduction was partially offset by increases in information technology expenses and marketing and advertising expenses.

(a) Share-based compensation to employees

In August 2023, the Company have established an employee share option scheme (the "Scheme") pursuant to which the right to subscribe for Class A Ordinary Shares may be granted to employees of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates who meet the eligibility criteria in accordance with the rules of the Scheme. The Scheme will subsist from 14 September 2023 till the date of the listing of the Company on a securities exchange or till the date on which the Scheme is terminated by the board of directors of the Company, whichever is earlier.

In September 2023, the Company issued 1,131,715 Class A Ordinary Shares issued to certain employees of the Company pursuant to the Scheme.

The fair value of the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to employees were measured using the Black-Scholes method. A summary of the measurement of the fair values and inputs at grant date is as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **2023** |
| Fair value at grant date (weighted average) | 0.81 - 1.18 |
| Exercise price at grant date (weighted average) | 0.0002 |
| Expected volatility (weighted average) | 1.74% |
| Expected terms (days) (weighted average) | 4 |
| Expected dividend (weighted average) | 0% |
| Risk-free interest rate (weighted average) | 5.51% |

---

Risk-free interest rate is estimated based on the yield curve of US Sovereign Bond as of the option valuation date. The expected volatility at the grant date and each option valuation date is estimated based on annualized standard deviation of daily stock price return of comparable companies with a time horizon close to the expected term of the options. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its capital stock, and the Company does not anticipate any dividend payments in the foreseeable future. Expected term is the period of time from the grant date to the exercise date or the forfeiture date. The lock-up period of the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to the employees are subject for a period varying between 12 months to 36 months.

In March 2025, the Company issued 3,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares of the Company, to Mr. Terence Zou, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to recognize his significant contribution to the Company's business operations for the financial year 2024. The fair value of the Class B Ordinary Shares issued to Mr. Terence Zou was measured based on the closing market share price of US$0.3200 per share.

In October 2025 and December 2025, the Company granted Class B Ordinary Shares to CEO as part of a share-based compensation arrangement to incentivize performance and align management's interests with shareholders.

The arrangement consists of:

Immediate awards: 2,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares granted in October 2025 in recognition of his significant contribution to the successful completion of the recent US$1.6 million Registered Direct Offering, a key step in reinforcing the Company's capital base and positioning Ryde for its next phase of growth.

Performance-based awards: Up to 30,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares granted on October 2, 2025, subject to achievement of specified performance conditions, primarily linked to: fundraising milestones ranging from US$5 million to US$40 million, and revenue growth targets. Shares are issued upon achievement of each performance milestone. There are no service conditions beyond the achievement of the specified performance conditions.

**Grant date and valuation**

The Company determined that October 2, 2025 represents the grant date for the performance-based awards, as the Compensation Committee approved the key terms and established a contingent obligation to issue shares upon achievement of the specified performance conditions.

The fair value of the equity awards was measured based on the closing market price of the Company's shares on the respective grant dates, consistent with ASC 718.

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| Grant | Shares | Grant date | Share price | Fair value |
| March 2025 issuance | 3000000 | Mar 13, 2025 | $0.32 | $960000 |
| October 2025 issuance | 2000000 | Oct 2, 2025 | $0.38 | $760000 |
| December 2025 issuance | 5500000 | Oct 2, 2025 | $0.38 | $2090000 |
| Performance-based awards (accrued portion) | 10500000 | Oct 2, 2025 | $0.38 | $3990000 |

---

**Unrecognized compensation cost**

As of December 31, 2025, 14,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares remain subject to future fundraising milestones. The Company determined that achievement of these milestones was not yet probable, as:

● fundraising activities had not yet been initiated,

● future fundraising outcomes remain dependent on market conditions and investor participation, and

● no binding commitments had been secured.

Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for these awards as of December 31, 2025.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025, the Company recognized share-based compensation to employees of S$1,489,000, nil, and S$10,207,000 (US$7,800,000) respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

(b) Share-based compensation to non-employees

In June 2024, the Company issued 1,500,00 Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company to certain consultants. The consulting services provided by the Consultants to the Company pursuant to the Consulting Agreements include: review and provide advice on the Company's strategic plans; meet with focus groups and interested parties to discuss the Company's strategic plans; provide advice on how best to position the Company and its subsidiaries in the future; propose potential acquisition targets for the Company and its subsidiaries; and assist in dealing with the corporate matters entrusted to the Consultants by the Company and its subsidiaries. The fair value of the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to consultants was measured based on the closing market share price of US$4.84 per share.

In September 2024, the Company issued 107,555 Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company to Maxim Group, LLC ("Maxim") upon its cashless exercise of representative's warrants that were issued to Maxim in connection with the Company's IPO.

In October and November 2025, the Company issued 1,350,000 Class A Ordinary Shares issued to certain consultants of the Company in consideration for consulting services provided to the Company. The fair value of the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to consultants was measured based on the closing market share price of US$0.5599, US$0.4609, US$0.5251 per share respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025, the Company recognized share-based compensation to non-employees of S$5,470,000, US$7,574,000, and S$892,000 (US$831,000) respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

**Key Non-US GAAP Financial Measures**

In addition to the measures presented in our consolidated financial statements, we use the following key non-US GAAP financial measures to help us evaluate our business, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions.

***Adjusted EBITDA***

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-US GAAP financial measure calculated as net loss adjusted to exclude: (a) finance cost, (b) income tax expenses, (c) depreciation and amortization, (d) share-based compensation expenses, and (e) impairment loss on goodwill.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as a financial measure, should be considered as supplemental in nature, and is not meant as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with US GAAP. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable US GAAP measure see the section titled "*Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures*".

***Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures***

To supplement our financial information, we use the following non-US GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA. However, the definitions of our non-US GAAP financial measures may be different from those used by other companies, and therefore, may not be comparable. Furthermore, these non-US GAAP financial measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our consolidated financial statements that are necessary to run our business. Thus, these non-US GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by providing a reconciliation of these non-US GAAP financial measures to the related US GAAP financial measures. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure and to view these non-IFRS financial measures in conjunction with their respective related US GAAP financial measures.

The following tables provide reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA.

**5. B. Liquidity and Capital Resources**

In assessing the Company's liquidity, the Company monitors and evaluates its cash and cash equivalent and its operating and capital expenditure commitments. The Company's liquidity needs are to meet its working capital requirements, operating expenses and capital expenditure obligations. As of December 31, 2025, we had US$3,890,000 in cash and cash equivalents.

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flow from operations, together with the US$40,500,000 gross proceeds from the offering completed on September 8, 2025, October 7, 2025, December 2 and 3, 2025, and April 7, 2026 will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for the next 12 months from the date of this annual report. However, the exact amount of proceeds we use for our operations and expansion plans will depend on the amount of cash generated from our operations and any strategic decisions we may make that could alter our expansion plans and the amount of cash necessary to fund these plans. We may, however, decide to enhance our liquidity position or increase our cash reserve for future investments through additional capital and finance funding. We may need additional cash resources in the future if we experience changes in business conditions or other developments, or if we find and wish to pursue opportunities for investments, acquisitions, capital expenditures or similar actions. If we determine that our cash requirements exceed the amount of cash and cash equivalents we have on hand at the time, we may seek to issue additional equity or debt securities or obtain credit facilities. The issuance and sale of additional equity would result in further dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed obligations and could result in operating covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Our ability to manage our working capital, including receivables and other assets and liabilities and accrued liabilities, may materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.

The following table presents a summary of our consolidated cash flow activity for the periods set forth below:

**Cash flow summary**

The classification evaluation begins at the commencement date and the lease term used in the evaluation includes the non-cancellable period for which the Company has the right to use the underlying asset, together with renewal option periods when the exercise of the renewal option is reasonably certain and failure to exercise such option which results in an economic penalty.

The Company's operating lease right-of-use assets is related to the office lease agreements with lease terms for two years. The Company's lease agreement do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive convents. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, no right-of-use ("ROU") assets nor lease liability was recorded for the lease with a lease term with one year or less.

**6. B. Compensation**

**Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers**

In 2025, we paid an aggregate of S$540,000 (US$414,000) in cash to our executive officers. We pay a compensation of US$85,000 per calendar year in the form of director and committee fees to our non-executive directors. We have not set aside or accrued any amount to provide pension, retirement or other similar benefits to our directors and executive officers. Our subsidiaries in Singapore are required by the applicable laws and regulations of Singapore to make contributions, as employers, to the Central Provident Fund for all employees (including our executive officers) who are employed under a contract of service by our Singapore subsidiaries as prescribed under the Central Provident Fund Act 1953. The contribution rates vary, depending on the age of the employee, and whether such employee is a Singapore citizen or permanent resident (contributions are not required or permitted in respect of a foreigner on a work pass). We did not pay any cash compensation to our independent directors in 2023.

For information regarding share awards granted to our directors and executive officers, see "—Share Incentive Plans."

**Employment Agreements and Indemnification Agreements**

We have entered into employment agreements with our executive officers. Each of our executive officers is employed for a continuous term, unless either we or the executive officer gives prior notice to terminate such employment. 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 commitment of any continued material breach of the terms and conditions of the employment, conviction of a criminal offense (other than one which in the reasonable opinion of the board of our Company does not affect the executive's position), fraud, dishonesty, misconduct or willful neglect of his duties. An executive officer may terminate his employment at any time with a three-month prior written notice. Each executive officer has agreed to devote the whole of his time and attention during normal hours of work of the Company to discharge of his duties.

Each executive officer has agreed to hold, both during and after the employment agreement expires or is earlier terminated, in strict confidence and not to disclose, use, copy, reproduce, exploit, divulge or communicate to any person any trade secret or any information concerning the business or financial arrangements or position of the Group or any of the dealings, transactions or affairs of the business of the Group. Each executive officer has also agreed to disclose in confidence and full details to us all intellectual property, including but not limited to patents, trademarks, unregistered designs, utility models, copyrights, discoveries, creations, inventions or improvements upon or additions to an invention, confidential information, know-how, research effort, moral rights and other intellectual property and rights (the "Intellectual Property") that are relating to or capable of being used in the business of the Company, which they discovered or participated in the making or discovery during the executive officer's employment with us. Such Intellectual Property shall be the absolute property of the Company and the Company shall assign its rights to such Intellectual Property to a member of the Group or any company that the Company agrees to assign to. In addition, all executive officers have agreed to be bound by non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions set forth in their agreements. Each executive officer has agreed not to, for a certain period following termination of his or her employment or expiration of the employment agreement, he will not, directly or indirectly, either on his own account or in conjunction with or on behalf of any other person, without prior written consent of the Company: (i) within the territory of Singapore and any other jurisdiction the Group may have business when the employment is terminated, engaged or concerned in any capacity or otherwise carry on any business similar to or in competition with the Group and with which the executive officer was involved in the course of his employment during the period of 12 months prior to the termination of his employment, (ii) solicit or entice away or attempt to solicit or entice away from the Group the custom of any of the Group's customer, client, agent, distributor or correspondent or in the habit of dealing with the Group with whom the executive officer had substantial contact in the course of his employment during the period of 12 months prior to the termination of his employment, or (iii) solicit, entice away from, or interfere with the Group's employment relationship with any person who has been employed or engaged by the Group with whom the executive officer had dealings in the course of his employment during the period of three months prior to the termination of his employment.

We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors, pursuant to which we will agree to indemnify our directors against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason of their being such a director.

**Share Incentive Plan(s)**

We have adopted the Share Incentive Plan, or the Plan, to attract and retain best available personnel, provide additional incentives to employees, directors and consultants, and promote the success of our business. Under the Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued pursuant to all awards (including incentive share options) are 21,792,930 shares, representing 20% of the number of fully-diluted Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025.

On March 6, 2026, 929,250 Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") became non-forfeitable upon satisfaction of the required service conditions under the Company's Share Incentive Plan. As a result, the Company issued 929,250 Class A Ordinary Shares to the CEO and CFO. The RSUs were granted under the Share Incentive Plan and are subject to a service-based vesting condition, under which the awards remained unvested and were subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment, whether voluntary or involuntary. Each RSU entitles the holder to receive one Class A Ordinary Share of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the Share Incentive Plan, with each share carrying no par value or the minimum par value required under applicable statutory regulations.

We have also established an employee share option scheme (the **"Scheme"**) pursuant to which the right to subscribe for Class A Ordinary Shares may be granted to employees of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates who meet the eligibility criteria in accordance with the rules of the Scheme. The Scheme will subsist from 14 September 2023 till the date of the listing of the Company on a securities exchange or till the date on which the Scheme is terminated by the board of directors of the Company, whichever is earlier.

In September 2023, the Company issued 1,131,715 Class A Ordinary Shares issued to certain employees of the Company pursuant to the Scheme.

In March 2025, the Company issued 3,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares of the Company, to Mr. Terence Zou, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of the Company, to recognize his significant contribution to the Company's business operations for the financial year 2024.

In October 2025, December 2025, and April 2026, the Company granted Class B Ordinary Shares to CEO as part of a share-based compensation arrangement to incentivize performance and align management's interests with shareholders. 7,500,000 and 3,500,000 Class B Ordinary Shares were issued in FY2025 and April 2026 respectively under this arrangement.

In June 2024, the Company issued 1,500,000 Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company to certain consultants. The consulting services provided by the Consultants to the Company pursuant to the Consulting Agreements include: review and provide advice on the Company's strategic plans; meet with focus groups and interested parties to discuss the Company's strategic plans; provide advice on how best to position the Company and its subsidiaries in the future; propose potential acquisition targets for the Company and its subsidiaries; and assist in dealing with the corporate matters entrusted to the Consultants by the Company and its subsidiaries.

In October and November 2025, the Company issued 1,350,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to certain consultants of the Company in consideration for consulting services provided to the Company.

In March 2026, the Company issued 150,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to certain consultants of the Company in consideration for consulting services provided to the Company.

In April 2026, the Company issued 605,000 Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company to certain consultants for providing services in relation to strategizing with the Company on its positioning and road map for capital raising, and assist in dealing with investor relation matters.

**6. C. Board Practices**

**Board of Directors**

Our board of Directors consists of four Directors, three of them are independent Directors. As a Cayman Islands company listed on the NYSE American, we are a foreign private issuer and are permitted to follow the home country practice with respect to certain corporate governance matters rather than complying with NYSE American corporate governance standards. Cayman Islands law does not require a majority of a publicly traded company's board of directors to be comprised of independent directors. However, to enhance our corporate governance, we elect to follow NYSE American corporate governance standards and have a majority of our board comprised of independent directors.

**Committees of the Board of Directors**

Our board of directors has an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating committee. Each committee's members and functions are described below.

***Audit Committee***. Our audit committee consists of Ms. Khoo Su Nee, Joanne, Mr. Kelvin Lee Soon Sze and Mr. Venkata Subramanian s/o Sreenivasan, and is chaired by Ms. Khoo Su Nee, Joanne. Our board of directors has determined that each such member satisfies the "independence" requirements of Rule 803(A)(2) of NYSE American LLC Company Guide and meets the independence standards under Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Our audit committee consists solely of independent directors that satisfy the NYSE American and SEC requirements. Our board of directors has also determined that Ms. Khoo Su Nee, Joanne qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of the SEC rules and possesses financial sophistication within the meaning of the Listing Rules of the NYSE American. The audit committee oversees our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the financial statements of our company. The audit committee is responsible for, among other things:

● selecting our independent registered public accounting firm and pre-approving all auditing and non-auditing services permitted to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm;

● reviewing with our independent registered public accounting firm any audit problems or difficulties and management's response and approving all proposed related party transactions, as defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K;

● discussing the annual audited financial statements with management and our independent registered public accounting firm;

● periodically reviewing and reassessing the adequacy of our audit committee charter;

● meeting periodically with the management and our internal auditor (if any) and our independent registered public accounting firm;

● reporting regularly to the full board of directors;

● reviewing the adequacy and effectiveness of our accounting and internal control policies and procedures and any steps taken to monitor and control major financial risk exposure; and

● such other matters that are specifically delegated to our audit committee by our board of directors from time to time.

***Compensation Committee***. Our compensation committee consists of Mr. Kelvin Lee Soon Sze, Ms. Khoo Su Nee, Joanne and Mr. Venkata Subramanian s/o Sreenivasan, and is chaired by Mr. Kelvin Lee Soon Sze. Our board of directors has determined that each such member satisfies the "independence" requirements of Rule 803(A)(2) of NYSE American LLC Company Guide. Our compensation committee assists the board in reviewing and approving the compensation structure, including all forms of compensation, relating to our directors and executive officers. Our chief executive officer may not be present at any committee meeting during which his compensation is deliberated upon. The compensation committee is responsible for, among other things:

● reviewing and approving to the board with respect to the total compensation package for our chief executive officer;

● reviewing the total compensation package for our executive officers and recommending any proposed changes to our management;

● reviewing and recommending to the board with respect to the compensation of our directors;

● reviewing annually and administering all long-term incentive compensation or equity plans;

● selecting and receiving advice from compensation consultants, legal counsel or other advisors after taking into consideration all factors relevant to that person's independence from management; and

● programs or similar arrangements, annual bonuses, employee pension and welfare benefit plans.

***Nominations Committee***. Our nominations committee consists of Mr. Venkata Subramanian s/o Sreenivasan, Ms. Khoo Su Nee, Joanne and Mr. Kelvin Lee Soon Sze, and is chaired by Mr. Venkata Subramanian s/o Sreenivasan. Our board of directors has determined that each such member satisfies the "independence" requirements of Rule 803(A)(2) of NYSE American LLC Company Guide. The nominations committee assists the board of directors in selecting individuals qualified to become our directors and in determining the composition of the board of directors and its committees. The nominations committee is responsible for, among other things:

● identifying and recommending nominees for election or re-election to our board of directors or for appointment to fill any vacancy;

● reviewing annually with our board of directors its current composition in light of the characteristics of independence, age, skills, experience and availability of service to us;

● advising the board periodically with respect to significant developments in the law and practice of corporate governance as well as our compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and making recommendations to our board of directors on all matters of corporate governance and on any corrective action to be taken; and

● monitoring compliance with our code of business conduct and ethics, including reviewing the adequacy and effectiveness of our procedures to ensure proper compliance.

**Duties of Directors**

Under Cayman Islands law, our directors owe fiduciary duties to our company, including a duty of loyalty, a duty to act honestly, and a duty to act in what they consider in good faith to be in our best interests. Our directors must also exercise their powers only for a proper purpose. Our directors also owe to our company a duty to act with skill and care. It was previously considered that a director need not exhibit in the performance of his duties a greater degree of skill than may reasonably be expected from a person of his knowledge and experience. However, English and Commonwealth courts have moved towards an objective standard with regard to the required skill and care and these authorities are likely to be followed in the Cayman Islands. In fulfilling their duty of care to us, our directors must ensure compliance with our memorandum and articles of association, as amended and restated from time to time. Our company has the right to seek damages if a duty owed by our directors is breached. In limited exceptional circumstances, a shareholder may have the right to seek damages in our name if a duty owed by our directors is breached.

The functions and powers of our board of directors include, among others:

● convening shareholders' annual general meetings and reporting its work to shareholders at such meetings;

● declaring dividends and distributions;

● appointing officers and determining the term of office of officers;

● exercising the borrowing powers of our company and mortgaging the property of our company; and

● approving the transfer of shares of our company, including the registering of such shares in our share register.

**Terms of Directors and Executive Officers**

Each of our directors holds office until the expiration of his or her term, as may be provided in a written agreement with our company, and his or her successor has been elected and qualified, until his or her resignation or until his or her office is otherwise vacated in accordance with our articles of association. As a Cayman Islands exempted company, we are not obliged by the Companies Act to call shareholders' annual general meetings. Our post-offering memorandum and articles of association provide that we may (but are not obliged to) in each year hold a general meeting as our annual general meeting in which case we shall specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it, and the annual general meeting shall be held at such time and place as may be determined by our directors. At each annual general meeting one-third of the directors for the time being shall retire from office by rotation. However, if the number of directors is not a multiple of three, then the number nearest to but not less than one-third shall be the number of retiring directors. A retiring director shall be eligible for re-election. All of our executive officers are appointed by and serve at the discretion of our board of directors. Our directors may be appointed or removed from office by an ordinary resolution of shareholders. A director will be removed from office automatically if, among other things, the director (i) becomes bankrupt or has a receiving order made against him or suspends payment or compounds with his creditors generally; (ii) dies or is found to be or becomes of unsound mind and the board of directors resolves that his office be vacated; (iii) resigns; (iv) without special leave of absence from our board of directors, is absent from three consecutive meetings of the board and the board resolves that his office be vacated; (v) is prohibited by operation of law from being or ceases to be a director; (vi) is removed from office by the requisite majority of the directors or otherwise pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association then in effect; or (vii) has been required by the NYSE American to cease to be a director. The compensation of our directors is determined by the board of directors. There is no mandatory retirement age for directors.

**6. E. Share Ownership**

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares as of April 23, 2026 by:

● each
 person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of Ordinary Shares;

● each

● all
 our directors and executive officers as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to, or the power to receive the economic benefit of ownership of, the securities. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares that the person has the right to acquire within 60 days are included, including through the exercise of any option or other right or the conversion of any other security. However, these shares are not included in the computation of the percentage ownership of any other person. Each Class A Ordinary Share carries one vote, and each Class B Ordinary Share carries 10 votes.

The percentage of our Ordinary Shares beneficially owned is computed on the basis of 149,971,131 Class A Ordinary Shares and 16,177,175 Class B Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of April 23, 2026.

In September 2025, the Company's subsidiary RCSR Pte Ltd entered into an agreement to grant short-term, non-interest-bearing advances to the joint venture. This is fully repaid in April 2026.

In October 2025 and December 2025, the Company granted Class B Ordinary Shares to CEO as part of a share-based compensation arrangement to incentivize performance and align management's interests with shareholders.

The arrangement consists of:

Immediate awards: 2,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares granted in October 2025 in recognition of his significant contribution to the successful completion of the recent US$1.6 million Registered Direct Offering, a key step in reinforcing the Company's capital base and positioning Ryde for its next phase of growth.

Performance-based awards: Up to 30,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares granted on October 2, 2025, subject to achievement of specified performance conditions, primarily linked to: fundraising milestones ranging from US$5 million to US$40 million, and revenue growth targets. Shares are issued upon achievement of each performance milestone. There are no service conditions beyond the achievement of the specified performance conditions.

**Grant date and valuation**

The Company determined that October 2, 2025 represents the grant date for the performance-based awards, as the Compensation Committee approved the key terms and established a contingent obligation to issue shares upon achievement of the specified performance conditions.

The fair value of the equity awards was measured based on the closing market price of the Company's shares on the respective grant dates, consistent with ASC 718.

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| Grant | Shares | Grant date | Share price | Share price | Fair value | Fair value |
| March 2025 issuance | 3000000 | Mar 13, 2025 | US$ | 0.32 | US$ | 960000 |
| October 2025 issuance | 2000000 | Oct 2, 2025 | US$ | 0.38 | US$ | 760000 |
| December 2025 issuance | 5500000 | Oct 2, 2025 | US$ | 0.38 | US$ | 2090000 |
| Performance-based awards (accrued portion) | 10500000 | Oct 2, 2025 | US$ | 0.38 | US$ | 3990000 |

---

**Unrecognized compensation cost**

As of December 31, 2025, 14,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares remain subject to future fundraising milestones. The Company determined that achievement of these milestones was not yet probable, as:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ◌ | fundraising activities had not yet been initiated, |
| ◌ | future fundraising outcomes remain dependent on market conditions and investor participation, and |
| ◌ | no binding commitments had been secured. |

---

Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for these awards as of December 31, 2025.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized share-based compensation to employees of S$10,184,000 (US$7,919,000).

**10. B. Memorandum and articles of association**

The following are summaries of the material provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (which we refer to below as our post-offering memorandum and articles of association) and the Companies Act, insofar as they relate to the material terms of our Ordinary Shares. They do not purport to be complete. Reference is made to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the annual report.

*Objects of Our Company*. Under our post-offering memorandum and articles of association, the objects of our company are unrestricted and we have the full power and authority to carry out any object not prohibited by the laws of the Cayman Islands.

*Ordinary Shares*. Our Ordinary Shares are divided into Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. Holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares will have the same rights except for voting and conversion rights. Each Class A Ordinary Share shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote on all matters subject to vote at our general meetings and each Class B Ordinary Share shall entitle the holder thereof to 10 votes on all matters subject to vote at our general meetings. Our Ordinary Shares are issued in registered form and are issued when registered in our register of members. We may not issue shares to bearer. Our shareholders who are non-residents of the Cayman Islands may freely hold and vote their shares.

*Conversion.* Class B Ordinary Shares may be converted into the same number of Class A Ordinary Shares at the option of the holders thereof at any time, while Class A Ordinary Shares cannot be converted into Class B Ordinary Shares under any circumstances.

*Dividends.* The holders of our Ordinary Shares are entitled to such dividends as may be declared by our board of directors or declared by our shareholders by ordinary resolution (provided that no dividend may be declared by our shareholders which exceeds the amount recommended by our directors). Our post-offering memorandum and articles of association provide that dividends may be declared and paid out of our profits, realized or unrealized, or from any reserve set aside from profits which our board of directors determine is no longer needed. Under the laws of the Cayman Islands, our company may pay a dividend out of either profit or share premium account, provided that in no circumstances may a dividend be paid if this would result in our company being unable to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business.

*Voting Rights.* Holders of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares shall, at all times, vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote by the members at any general meeting of the Company. Each Class A Ordinary Share shall be entitled to one vote and each Class B Ordinary Share shall be entitled to 10 votes on all matters subject to the vote at general meetings of our Company. Voting at any meeting of shareholders is by show of hands unless a poll (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands) is demanded. A poll may be demanded by the chairperson of such meeting or any one shareholder present in person or by proxy.

An ordinary resolution to be passed at a meeting by the shareholders requires the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes attaching to the Ordinary Shares cast at a meeting, while a special resolution requires the affirmative vote of no less than two-thirds of the votes cast attaching to the outstanding and issued Ordinary Shares cast at a meeting. A special resolution will be required for important matters such as a change of name or making changes to our post-offering memorandum and articles of association. Our shareholders may, among other things, divide or combine their shares by ordinary resolution.

*General Meetings of Shareholders.* As a Cayman Islands exempted company, we are not obliged by the Companies Act to call shareholders' annual general meetings. Our post-offering memorandum and articles of association provide that we may (but are not obliged to) in each year hold a general meeting as our annual general meeting in which case we shall specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it, and the annual general meeting shall be held at such time and place as may be determined by our directors.

Shareholders' general meetings may be convened by a majority of our board of directors. Advance notice of at least ten days is required for the convening of our annual general shareholders' meeting (if any) and any other general meeting of our shareholders. A quorum required for any general meeting of shareholders consists of at least one shareholder present or by proxy, representing not less than one-third of all votes attaching to the issued and outstanding shares in our company entitled to vote at the general meeting.

The 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 post-offering memorandum and articles of association provide that upon the requisition of any one or more of our shareholders who together hold shares which carry in aggregate not less than one-third of all votes attaching to the issued and outstanding shares of our company entitled to vote at general meetings, our board will convene an extraordinary general meeting and put the resolutions so requisitioned to a vote at such meeting. However, our post-offering memorandum and articles of association do not provide our shareholders with any right to put any proposals before annual general meetings or extraordinary general meetings not called by such shareholders.

*Transfer of Ordinary Shares.* Subject to the restrictions set out in our post-offering memorandum and articles of association as set out below, any of our shareholders may transfer all or any of his or her Ordinary Shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or any other form approved by our board of directors.

Our board of directors may, in its absolute discretion, decline to register any transfer of any ordinary share which is not fully paid up or on which we have a lien. Our board of directors may also decline to register any transfer of any ordinary share unless:

● 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;

● the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of Ordinary Shares;

● the instrument of transfer is properly stamped, if required;

● in the case of a transfer to joint holders, the number of joint holders to whom the ordinary share is to be transferred does not exceed four;

● the ordinary share transferred is free of any lien in favor of the Company; and

● a fee of such maximum sum as the NYSE American may determine to be payable or such lesser sum as our directors may from time to time require is paid to us in respect thereof.

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

The registration of transfers may, after compliance with any notice required of NYSE American, 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 as our board may determine.

*Liquidation*. On the winding up of our company, if the assets available for distribution amongst our shareholders shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the share capital at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst our shareholders in proportion to the par value of the shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up, subject to a deduction from those shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to our company for unpaid calls or otherwise. If our assets available for distribution are insufficient to repay all of the paid-up capital, the assets will be distributed so that the losses are borne by our shareholders in proportion to the par value of the shares held by them.

*Calls on Shares and Forfeiture of Shares*. Our board of directors may from time to time make calls upon shareholders for any amounts unpaid on their shares in a notice served to such shareholders at least 14 days prior to the specified time and place of payment. The shares that have been called upon and remain unpaid are subject to forfeiture.

*Redemption, Repurchase and Surrender of Shares*. We may issue shares on terms that such shares are subject to redemption, at our option or at the option of the holders of these shares, on such terms and in such manner as may be determined by our board of directors or by special resolution of our shareholders. Our company may also repurchase any of our shares on such terms and in such manner as have been approved by our board of directors or by an ordinary resolution of our shareholders. Under the Companies Act, the redemption or repurchase of any share may be paid out of our Company's profits or out of the proceeds of a new issue of shares made for the purpose of such redemption or repurchase, or out of capital (including share premium account and capital redemption reserve) if our company can, immediately following such payment, pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. In addition, under the Companies Act no such share may be redeemed or repurchased (a) unless it is fully paid up, (b) if such redemption or repurchase would result in there being no shares issued and outstanding or (c) if the Company has commenced liquidation. In addition, our company may accept the surrender of any fully paid share for no consideration.

*Variations of Rights of Shares*. If at any time, our share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class may be materially adversely varied with the consent in writing of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued shall not, be deemed to be materially adversely varied by the creation, allotment or issue of further shares ranking *pari passu* with or subsequent to them or the redemption or purchase of any shares of any class by the Company. The rights of the holders of shares shall not be deemed to be materially adversely varied by the creation or issue of shares with preferred or other rights including, without limitation, the creation of shares with enhanced or weighted voting rights.

*Issuance of Additional Shares*. Our post-offering memorandum and articles of association authorize our board of directors to issue additional Ordinary Shares from time to time as our board of directors shall determine, to the extent out of available authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares.

Our post-offering memorandum and articles of association also authorize our board of directors to establish from time to time one or more series of preferred shares and to determine, with respect to any series of preferred shares, the terms and rights of that series, including:

● the designation of the series;

● the number of shares of the series;

● the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights; and

● the rights and terms of redemption and liquidation preferences.

Our board of directors may issue preferred shares without action by our shareholders to the extent out of authorized but unissued preferred shares. Issuance of these shares may dilute the voting power of holders of Ordinary Shares.

*Inspection of Books and Records*. Holders of our Ordinary Shares will have no general right under Cayman Islands law to inspect or obtain copies of our list of shareholders or our corporate records.

*Anti-Takeover Provisions*. Some provisions of our post-offering memorandum and articles of association may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company or management that shareholders may consider favorable, including provisions that:

● authorize our board of directors to issue preferred shares in one or more series and to designate the price, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of such preferred shares without any further vote or action by our shareholders; and

● limit the ability of shareholders to requisition and convene general meetings of shareholders.

However, under Cayman Islands law, our directors may only exercise the rights and powers granted to them under our post-offering memorandum and articles of association for a proper purpose and for what they believe in good faith to be in the best interests of our company.

*Exempted Company*. We are an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Act. The Companies Act distinguishes between ordinary resident companies and exempted companies. Any company that is registered in the Cayman Islands but conducts business mainly outside of the Cayman Islands may apply to be registered as an exempted company. The requirements for an exempted company are essentially the same as for an ordinary company except that an exempted company:

● does not have to file an annual return of its shareholders with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands;

● is not required to open its register of members for inspection;

● does not have to hold an annual general meeting;

● may obtain an undertaking against the imposition of any future taxation (such undertakings are usually given for 20 years in the first instance);

● may register by way of continuation in another jurisdiction and be deregistered in the Cayman Islands;

● may register as a limited duration company; and

● may register as a segregated portfolio company.

"Limited liability" means that the liability of each shareholder is limited to the amount unpaid by the shareholder on the shares of the company (except in exceptional circumstances, such as involving fraud, the establishment of an agency relationship or an illegal or improper purpose or other circumstances in which a court may be prepared to pierce or lift the corporate veil).

***Differences in Corporate Law***

The Companies Act is derived, to a large extent, from the older Companies Acts of England but does not follow recent English statutory enactments and accordingly there are significant differences between the Companies Act and the current Companies Act of England. In addition, the Companies Act differs from laws applicable to U.S. corporations and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of certain significant differences between the provisions of the Companies Act applicable to us and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the United States and their shareholders.

*Mergers and Similar Arrangements*. The Companies Act permits mergers and consolidations between Cayman Islands companies and between Cayman Islands companies and non-Cayman Islands companies. For these purposes, (i) "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 (ii) 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 written plan of merger or consolidation must be filed with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands together with a declaration as to the solvency of the consolidated or surviving company, a list of the assets and liabilities of each constituent company and an undertaking that a copy of the certificate of merger or consolidation will be given to the members 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 parent company and its Cayman subsidiary or subsidiaries does not require authorization by a resolution of shareholders of that Cayman subsidiary if a copy of the plan of merger is given to every member of that Cayman subsidiary to be merged unless that member agrees otherwise. For this purpose a company is a "parent" of a subsidiary if it holds issued shares that together represent at least ninety percent (90%) of the votes at a general meeting of the subsidiary.

The consent of each holder of a fixed or floating security interest over a constituent company is required unless this requirement is waived by a court in the Cayman Islands.

Save in certain limited circumstances, a shareholder of a Cayman constituent company who dissents from the merger or consolidation is entitled to payment of the fair value of his shares (which, if not agreed between the parties, will be determined by the Cayman Islands court) upon dissenting to the merger or consolidation, provided that the dissenting shareholder complies strictly with the procedures set out in the Companies Act. The exercise of 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, save for the right to seek relief on the grounds that the merger or consolidation is void or unlawful.

Separate from the statutory provisions relating to mergers and consolidations, the Companies Act also contains statutory provisions that facilitate the reconstruction and amalgamation of companies by way of schemes of arrangement, 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:

● the statutory provisions as to the required majority vote have been met;

● 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;

● 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

● the arrangement is not one that would more properly be sanctioned under some other provision of the Companies Act.

The Companies Act also contains a statutory power of compulsory acquisition which may facilitate the "squeeze out" of dissentient minority shareholders upon a tender offer. When a tender offer is made and accepted by holders of 90.0% 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 to the offeror 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 by way of scheme of arrangement is thus approved and sanctioned, or if a tender offer is made and accepted in accordance with the foregoing statutory procedures, 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 authorities, which would in all likelihood be of persuasive authority in the Cayman Islands, the Cayman Islands court 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 actions where:

● a company acts or proposes to act illegally or ultra vires (and is therefore incapable of ratification by the shareholder);

● the act complained of, although not ultra vires, could only be effected duly if authorized by more than a simple majority vote that has not been obtained;

● an act purports to abridge or abolish the individual rights of a shareholder; and

● those who control the company are perpetrating a "fraud on the minority."

In the case of a company (not being a bank) having its share capital divided into shares, the Grand Court may, on the application of members holding not less than one fifth of the shares of the company in issue, appoint an inspector to examine the affairs of the company and to report thereon in such manner as the Grand Court shall direct.

*Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitation of Liability*. Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company's memorandum and 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 post-offering memorandum and articles of association provide that that we shall indemnify our officers and directors against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages or liabilities incurred or sustained by such directors or officer, other than by reason of such person's dishonesty, willful default or fraud, in or about the conduct of our company's business or affairs (including as a result of any mistake of judgment) or in the execution or discharge of his duties, powers, authorities or discretions, including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by such director or officer in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning our company or its affairs in any court whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere. This standard of conduct is generally the same as permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law for a Delaware corporation.

In addition, we expect to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers that provide such persons with additional indemnification beyond that provided in our post-offering memorandum and articles of association.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 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 and is therefore unenforceable.

*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 acts in a manner he reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation. He must not use his corporate position for personal gain or advantage. This duty prohibits self-dealing by a director and mandates that the best interest 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, the 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 of a Cayman Islands company is in the position of a fiduciary with respect to the company and therefore it is considered that he owes the following duties to the company — a duty to act bona fide in the best interests of the company, a duty not to make a profit based on his position as director (unless the company permits him to do so), a duty not to put himself in a position where the interests of the company conflict with his personal interest or his duty to a third party, and a duty to exercise powers for the purpose for which such powers were intended. A director of a Cayman Islands company owes to the company a duty to act with skill and care. It was previously considered that a director need not exhibit in the performance of his duties a greater degree of skill than may reasonably be expected from a person of his knowledge and experience. However, English and Commonwealth courts have moved towards an objective standard with regard to the required skill and care and these authorities are likely to be followed in the Cayman Islands.

*Shareholder Action by Written Consent*. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may eliminate the right of shareholders to act by written consent by amendment to its certificate of incorporation. Cayman Islands law and our post-offering memorandum and articles of association provide that our shareholders may approve corporate matters by way of a unanimous written resolution signed by or on behalf of each shareholder who would have been entitled to vote on such matter at a general meeting without a meeting being held.

*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. 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 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 post-offering memorandum and articles of association allow any one or more of our shareholders holding shares which carry in aggregate not less than one-third of the total number of votes attaching to all issued and the outstanding shares of our company entitled to vote at general meetings to requisition an extraordinary general meeting of our shareholders, in which case our board is obliged to convene an extraordinary general meeting and to put the resolutions so requisitioned to a vote at such meeting. Other than this right to requisition a shareholders' meeting, our post-offering memorandum and articles of association do not provide our shareholders with any other right to put proposals before annual general meetings or extraordinary general meetings. As a Cayman Islands exempted company, we are not obliged by law to call shareholders' annual general meetings.

*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. There are no prohibitions in relation to cumulative voting under the laws of the Cayman Islands but our post-offering 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 issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Under our post-offering memorandum and articles of association, directors may be removed with or without cause, by an ordinary resolution of our shareholders. A director will also cease to be a director if he (i) becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors; (ii) dies or is found to be or becomes of unsound mind; (iii) resigns his office by notice in writing; (iv) without special leave of absence from our board, is absent from meetings of our board for three consecutive meetings and our board resolves that his office be vacated; or (v) is removed from office pursuant to any other provision of our articles of association.

*Transactions with Interested Shareholders*. The Delaware General Corporation Law contains a business combination statute applicable to Delaware corporations whereby, unless the corporation has specifically elected not to be governed by such statute by amendment to its certificate of incorporation, 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 share 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.

Cayman Islands law 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 Cayman Islands law does not regulate transactions between a company and its significant shareholders, it does provide that such transactions must be entered into bona fide in the best interests of the company 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 either an order of the courts of the Cayman Islands or by the board of directors.

Under Cayman Islands law, a company may be wound up by either an order of the courts of the Cayman Islands or by a special resolution of its members or, if the company is unable to pay its debts as they fall due, by an ordinary resolution of its members. 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 our post-offering memorandum and articles of association, if our share capital is divided into more than one class of shares, the rights attached to any such class may, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class, only be materially adversely varied with the consent in writing of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to the shares of that class, be deemed to be materially adversely varied by the creation, allotment or issue of further shares ranking *pari passu* with or subsequent to them or the redemption or purchase of any shares of any class by our company. The rights of the holders of shares shall not be deemed to be materially adversely varied by the creation or issue of shares with preferred or other rights including, without limitation, the creation of shares with enhanced or weighted voting rights.

*Amendment of Governing Documents*. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation's governing documents may be amended with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Under the Companies Act and our post-offering memorandum and articles of association, our memorandum and articles of association may only be amended by a special resolution of our shareholders.

*Rights of Non-resident or Foreign Shareholders*. There are no limitations imposed by our post-offering memorandum and articles of association on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on our shares. In addition, there are no provisions in our post-offering memorandum and articles of association governing the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed.

**10. C. Material contracts**

Other than those described in this annual report, we have not entered into any material agreements other than in the ordinary course of business.

**10. D. Exchange controls**

The Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands and Singapore currently have no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions.

**10. E. Taxation**

**Cayman Islands Taxation**

The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciation and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to us levied by the government of the Cayman Islands except for stamp duties which may be applicable on instruments executed in, or, after execution, brought within the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands is a party to a double tax treaty entered with the United Kingdom in 2010 but is otherwise not party to any double tax treaties that are applicable to any payments made to or by our company. There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands. Pursuant to Section 6 of the Tax Concessions Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands, our Company has obtained an undertaking from the Financial Secretary: (a) that no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations shall apply to our Company or its operations; and (b) that the aforesaid tax or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall not be payable on or in respect of the shares, debentures or other obligations of our Company or by way of withholding in whole or in part of any relevant payment as defined in section 6(3) of the Tax Concessions Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands. The undertaking for our Company is for a period of 20 years from February 28, 2023.

Payments of dividends and capital in respect of our Class A Ordinary Shares will not be subject to taxation in the Cayman Islands and no withholding will be required on the payment of a dividend or capital to any holder of our Class A Ordinary Shares, nor will gains derived from the disposal of our Class A Ordinary Shares be subject to Cayman Islands income or corporation tax.

No stamp duty is payable in the Cayman Islands in respect of the issue of our Class A Ordinary Shares or on an instrument of transfer in respect of our Class A Ordinary Shares, so long as the instrument of transfer is not executed in, brought to, or produced before a court of in the Cayman Islands.

**Singapore Taxation**

***Dividend Distributions***

All Singapore-tax resident companies are currently under the one-tier corporate tax system, or one-tier system.

Under the one-tier system, the income tax paid by a tax resident company is a final tax and its distributable profits can be distributed to shareholders as tax exempt (one-tier) dividends. Such dividends are tax exempt in the hands of a shareholder, regardless of the tax residence status, shareholding level or legal form of the shareholder.

Accordingly, dividends received in respect of the Ordinary Shares by either a resident or non-resident of Singapore are not subject to Singapore income tax (whether by withholding or otherwise), on the basis that we are a tax resident of Singapore and under the one-tier system.

Foreign shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisers to take into account the tax laws of their respective countries of residence and the existence of any agreement for the avoidance of double taxation which their country of residence may have with Singapore.

***Gains on Disposal of Shares***

Singapore does not currently impose tax on capital gains. Gains arising from the disposal of the shares may be construed to be of an income nature and subject to Singapore income tax, especially if they arise from activities which may be regarded as the carrying on of a trade or business in Singapore. Such gains may also be considered income in nature, even if they do not arise from an activity in the ordinary course of trade or business or an ordinary incident of some other business activity, if the shares were purchased with the intention or purpose of making a profit by sale rather than holding for long-term investment purposes in Singapore. Conversely, gains from disposition of the shares in Singapore, if considered as capital gains rather than income by the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore ("IRAS"), are not taxable in Singapore.

There are no specific laws or regulations which deal with the characterization of whether a gain is income or capital in nature. The characterization of gains arising from the sale of our shares will depend primarily on the facts and circumstances (commonly referred to as the "badges of trade") of each shareholder.

Subject to specified exceptions, Section 13W of the Singapore Income Tax Act 1947, or "SITA," provides for certainty on the non-taxability of gains derived by a corporate taxpayer from the disposal of Ordinary Shares during the period from June 1, 2012 to December 31, 2027 (both dates inclusive) where:

● the
 divesting company had legally and beneficially held a minimum shareholding of 20% of the Ordinary Shares of the company whose shares
 are being disposed; and

● the
 divesting company had maintained the minimum 20% shareholding for a continuous period of at least 24 months immediately prior to
 the disposal.

The above-mentioned "safe harbor rules" prescribed under Section 13W of SITA will not apply to a divesting company under certain scenarios. These include, but are not limited to, the divesting company that is in the business of trading or holding Singapore immovable properties (excluding property development), where the shares are not listed on a stock exchange in Singapore or elsewhere, the divesting company whose gains or profits from the disposal of Ordinary Shares are included as part of its income based on the provisions of section 26 of the SITA, disposal of shares by a partnership, limited partnership or limited liability partnership where one or more of the partners is a company or are companies, etc.

Shareholders who apply, or who are required to apply, the Singapore Financial Reporting Standard 39 –Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, or FRS 39; the Singapore Financial Reporting Standard 109 – Financial Instruments, or FRS 109; or the Singapore Financial Reporting Standard (International) 9 – Financial Instruments, or SFRS(I) 9, may for the purposes of Singapore income tax be required to recognize gains or losses in respect of financial instruments (not being gains or losses in the nature of capital) in accordance with FRS 39, FRS 109 or SFRS(I) 9 (as the case may be) (as modified by the applicable provisions of Singapore income tax law) even where no sale or disposal of the shares is made.

Section 34A of the SITA provides of the tax treatment for financial instruments in accordance with FRS 39 (subject to certain exceptions and "opt-out" provisions) for taxpayers who are required to comply with FRS 39 for financial reporting purposes. The IRAS has also issued a circular entitled "Income Tax Implications Arising from the Adoption of FRS 39 — Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement." FRS 109 or SFRS(I) 9 (as the case may be) is mandatorily effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, replacing FRS 39. Section 34AA of the SITA requires taxpayers who comply or who are required to comply with FRS 109 or SFRS(I) 9 (as the case may be) for financial reporting purposes to calculate their profit, loss or expense for Singapore income tax purposes in respect of financial instruments in accordance with FRS 109 or SFRS(I) 9 (as the case may be), subject to certain exceptions. The IRAS has also issued a circular entitled "Income Tax: Income Tax Treatment Arising from Adoption of FRS 109 — Financial Instruments."

Shareholders who may be subject to the above-mentioned tax treatments, including under Sections 34A or 34AA of the SITA, should consult their accounting and tax advisers regarding the Singapore income tax consequences of their acquisition, holding and disposal of the shares.

***Stamp Duty***

There is no stamp duty payable on the subscription and issuance of the shares.

In relation to a transfer of the Ordinary Shares, no stamp duty is payable if no instrument of transfer is executed or if the instrument of transfer is executed outside Singapore and not received in Singapore. Accordingly, stamp duty is not applicable to electronic transfers of our shares effected solely on a book entry basis outside Singapore. We therefore expect that no Singapore stamp duty will be payable where shares are acquired by U.S. Holders solely in book entry form through the facility outside Singapore established by our transfer agent and registrar outside Singapore to the extent that the instruments of transfer (including electronic instruments) are not received in Singapore and all electronic records and any information relating to such transfers are not electronically received by persons in Singapore, stored on any server or device in Singapore or made accessible to any person in Singapore.

Stamp duty will be payable if there is an instrument (including an electronic instrument) for the transfer of our shares which is either executed in Singapore or executed outside Singapore and received in Singapore.

Where the instrument of transfer is executed in Singapore, stamp duty must be paid within 14 days of the execution of the instrument of transfer. Where the instrument of transfer is executed outside Singapore and received in Singapore, stamp duty must be paid within 30 days of receipt of the instrument of transfer in Singapore. An electronic instrument that is executed outside Singapore is treated as received in Singapore in any of the following scenarios: (a) it is retrieved or accessed by a person in Singapore; (b) an electronic copy of it is stored on a device (including a computer) and brought into Singapore; or (c) an electronic copy of it is stored on a computer in Singapore.

Stamp duty on an instrument of transfer of shares is payable at the rate of 0.2% of the consideration for, or market value of, the shares, whichever is higher.

Stamp duty is borne by the purchaser unless there is an agreement to the contrary.

***Estate Duty***

Singapore estate duty was abolished with respect to all deaths occurring on or after February 15, 2008.

***Tax Treaties Regarding Withholding Taxes***

There is no comprehensive agreement for the avoidance of double taxation between the U.S. and Singapore which applies to withholding taxes (if any) on dividends or capital gains.

***Goods and Services Tax ("GST")***

The sale of the shares by a GST-registered investor belonging in Singapore for GST purposes to another person belonging in Singapore is an exempt supply not subject to GST. Any input GST (for example, GST on brokerage) incurred by the GST-registered investor in connection with the making of an exempt supply is generally not recoverable from the Singapore Comptroller of GST and will become an additional cost to the investor unless the investor satisfies certain conditions prescribed under the GST legislation or satisfies certain GST concessions.

Where the shares are sold by a GST-registered investor in the course of or furtherance of a business carried on by such investor contractually to and for the direct benefit of a person belonging outside Singapore, the sale should generally, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, be considered a taxable supply subject to GST at 0%. Any input GST (for example, GST on brokerage) incurred by the GST-registered investor in making such a supply in the course of or furtherance of a business may be fully recoverable from the Singapore Comptroller of GST. Investors should seek their own tax advice on the recoverability of GST incurred on expenses in connection with the purchase and sale of the shares.

Services consisting of arranging, brokering, underwriting or advising on the issue, allotment or transfer of ownership of the shares rendered by a GST-registered person to an investor belonging in Singapore for GST purposes in connection with the investor's purchase, sale or holding of the shares will be subject to GST at the standard rate of 9%. Similar services rendered by a GST registered person contractually to an investor belonging outside Singapore and for the direct benefit of such an investor or a GST registered person belonging in Singapore should generally, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, be subject to GST at 0%.

**Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations** 

The following discussion is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations generally applicable to the ownership and disposition of the Class A Ordinary Shares by a U.S. Holder (as defined below) that acquires the Class A Ordinary Shares in this annual report and holds the Class A Ordinary Shares as "capital assets" (generally, property held for investment) under the Section 1221 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). This discussion is based upon existing U.S. federal income tax laws, which is subject to differing interpretations or change, possibly with retroactive effect. There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or a court will not take a contrary position. This discussion, moreover, does not address the U.S. federal estate, gift, Medicare, and alternative minimum tax considerations, or any state, local and non-U.S. tax considerations, relating to the ownership or disposition of the Class A Ordinary Shares. The following summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to particular investors in light of their individual circumstances or to persons in special tax situations such as, banks and other financial institutions; insurance companies; pension plans; cooperatives; regulated investment companies; real estate investment trusts; broker-dealers; traders that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting; certain former U.S. citizens or long-term residents; tax-exempt entities (including private foundations); holders who acquire their Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to any employee share option or otherwise as compensation; investors that will hold their Class A Ordinary Shares as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion, constructive sale or other integrated transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes; investors that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar; persons holding their Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with a trade or business conducted outside the United States; persons that actually or constructively own 10% or more of our stock (by vote or value); or partnerships or other entities taxable as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or persons holding the Class A Ordinary Shares through such entities, all of whom may be subject to tax rules that differ significantly from those discussed below.

Each U.S. Holder is urged to consult its tax advisor regarding the application of U.S. federal taxation to its particular circumstances, and the state, local, non-U.S. and other tax considerations of the ownership and disposition of the Class A Ordinary Shares.

**General**

For purposes of this discussion, a "U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of the Class A Ordinary Shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created in or organized under the law of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (iii) an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or (iv) a trust (A) the administration of which is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and which has one or more U.S. persons who have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (B) that has otherwise validly elected to be treated as a U.S. person under the Code.

If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of the Class A Ordinary Shares, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships holding the Class A Ordinary Shares and their partners are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding an investment in the Class A Ordinary Shares.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, a U.S. Holder of Class A Ordinary Shares will generally be treated as the beneficial owner of the underlying shares represented by the Class A Ordinary Shares. The remainder of this discussion assumes that a U.S. Holder of the Class A Ordinary Shares will be treated in this manner. Accordingly, deposits or withdrawals of Class A Ordinary Shares will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax.

***Dividends***

Subject to the PFIC rules described below under "— Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations", any cash distributions paid on the Class A Ordinary Shares (including the amount of any Singapore tax withheld) out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, will generally be includible in the gross income of a U.S. Holder as dividend income on the day actually or constructively received by the U.S. Holder, in the case of Class A Ordinary Shares. Because we do not intend to determine our earnings and profits on the basis of U.S. federal income tax principles, any distribution we pay will generally be treated as a "dividend" for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Dividends received on the Class A Ordinary Shares will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from U.S. corporations.

Individuals and other non-corporate U.S. Holders will be subject to tax at the lower capital gain tax rate applicable to "qualified dividend income"; provided that certain conditions are satisfied, including that (1) the Class A Ordinary Shares on which the dividends are paid are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, (2) we are neither a PFIC nor treated as such with respect to a U.S. Holder (as discussed below) for the taxable year in which the dividend is paid and the preceding taxable year, and (3) certain holding period and other requirements are met.

For U.S. foreign tax credit purposes, dividends paid on the Class A Ordinary Shares generally will be treated as income from foreign sources and generally will constitute passive category income. A U.S. Holder who does not elect to claim a foreign tax credit for foreign tax withheld may instead claim a deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in respect of such withholding, but only for a year in which such holder elects to do so for all creditable foreign income taxes. The rules governing the foreign tax credit are very complex. For example, certain Treasury Regulations promulgated in December 2021 imposed requirements regarding the eligibility of creditable taxes for U.S. holders and recent notices from the IRS provided temporary relief from such Treasury Regulations, provided certain requirements are satisfied. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances, including the effects of any applicable income tax treaties and any Treasury Regulations or IRS guidance.

***Sale or Other Disposition***

A U.S. Holder will generally recognize gain or loss upon the sale or other disposition of Class A Ordinary Shares in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the disposition and the holder's adjusted tax basis in such Class A Ordinary Shares. The gain or loss will generally be capital gain or loss. Any capital gain or loss will be long term if the Class A Ordinary Shares have been held for more than one year. The deductibility of a capital loss may be subject to limitations. Any such gain or loss that the U.S. Holder recognizes will generally be treated as U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit limitation purposes, which may limit the availability of foreign tax credits. Each U.S. Holder is advised to consult its tax advisor regarding the tax consequences if a foreign tax is imposed on a disposition of the Class A Ordinary Shares, including the availability of the foreign tax credit under its particular circumstances and the effects of any applicable income tax treaties and the recent Treasury Regulations and IRS guidance discussed above.

***Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations***

For United States federal income tax purposes, a non-United States corporation, such as our Company, will be treated as a "passive foreign investment company," or "PFIC" if, in the case of any particular taxable year, either (a)75% or more of our gross income for such year consists of certain types of "passive" income or (b) 50% or more of the value of our assets (generally determined on the basis of a quarterly average) during such year produce or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income for this purpose generally includes, among other things, dividends, interest, rents, royalties, gains from commodities and securities transactions, and gains from assets that produce passive income. Cash is generally a passive asset. Goodwill is active to the extent attributable to activities that produce or are intended to produce active income. In determining whether a non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC, a pro rata portion of the income and assets of each corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, at least a 25% interest (by value) is taken into account.

Based upon our current and expected income and assets (including goodwill), we do not expect to be a PFIC for the current taxable year. However, while we do not expect to be or become a PFIC, no assurance can be given in this regard because the determination of whether we are or will become a PFIC for any taxable year is a fact-intensive inquiry made annually that depends, in part, upon the composition and classification of our income and assets. Fluctuations in the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares may cause us to be or become a PFIC for the current or subsequent taxable years because the value of our assets for the purpose of the asset test, including the value of our goodwill and any unbooked intangibles, may be determined by reference to the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares (which may be volatile). The composition of our income and assets may also be affected by how, and how quickly, we use our liquid assets and the cash raised in our initial price offering. It is also possible that the Internal Revenue Service may challenge our classification of certain income or assets for purposes of the analysis set forth in subparagraphs (a) and (b), above or the valuation of our goodwill and any unbooked intangibles, which may result in our company being or becoming a PFIC for the current or future taxable years.

If we are classified as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds our Class A Ordinary Shares, and unless the U.S. Holder makes a mark-to-market election (as described below), the U.S. Holder will generally be subject to special tax rules on (i) any excess distribution that we make to the U.S. Holder (which generally means any distribution paid during a taxable year to a U.S. Holder that is greater than 125% of the average annual distributions paid in the three preceding taxable years or, if shorter, the U.S. Holder's holding period for the Class A Ordinary Shares), and (ii) any gain realized on the sale or other disposition, including, under certain circumstances, a pledge, of Class A Ordinary Shares. Under the PFIC rules:

● such
 excess distribution and/or gain will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder's holding period for the Class A Ordinary Shares;

● such
 amount allocated to the current taxable year and any taxable years in the U.S. Holder's holding period prior to the first taxable
 year in which we are a PFIC, each a pre-PFIC year, will be taxable as ordinary income;

● such
 amount allocated to each prior taxable year, other than a pre-PFIC year, will be subject to tax at the highest tax rate in effect
 applicable to the U.S. Holder for that year; and

● an
 interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the tax attributable to each prior taxable year,
 other than a pre-PFIC year.

If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds our Class A Ordinary Shares and we own any equity in a non-United States entity that is also a PFIC, or a lower-tier PFIC, such U.S. Holder would be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of the lower-tier PFIC for purposes of the application of these rules. U.S. Holders are advised to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to any of the entities in which we may own equity.

A U.S. Holder that holds stock in a non-U.S. corporation during any taxable year in which the corporation is treated as a PFIC is subject to special tax rules with respect to (a) any gain realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of the stock and (b) any "excess distribution" by the corporation to the holder, unless the holder elects to treat the PFIC as a "qualified electing fund" ("QEF") or makes a "mark-to-market" election, each as discussed below. An "excess distribution" is that portion of a distribution with respect to PFIC stock that exceeds 125% of the average of such distributions over the preceding three-year period or, if shorter, the U.S. Holder's holding period for its shares. Excess distributions and gains on the sale, exchange or other disposition of stock of a corporation which was a PFIC at any time during the U.S. Holder's holding period are allocated ratably to each day of the U.S. Holder's holding period. Amounts allocated to the taxable year in which the disposition occurs and amounts allocated to any period in the shareholder's holding period before the first day of the first taxable year that the corporation was a PFIC will be taxed as ordinary income (rather than capital gain) earned in the taxable year of the disposition. Amounts allocated to each of the other taxable years in the U.S. Holder's holding period are not included in gross income for the year of the disposition, but are subject to a tax (equal to the highest ordinary income tax rates in effect for those years, and increased by an interest charge at the rate applicable to income tax deficiencies) that is added to the tax otherwise due for the taxable year in which the disposition occurs. The tax liability for amounts allocated to years before the year of disposition or "excess distribution" cannot be offset by any net operating losses for such years, and gains (but not losses) realized on the sale of the Class A Ordinary Shares cannot be treated as capital, even if a U.S. Holder held such Class A Ordinary Shares as capital assets. The preferential U.S. federal income tax rates for dividends and long-term capital gain of individual U.S. Holders (as well as certain trusts and estates) would not apply, and special rates would apply for calculating the amount of the foreign tax credit with respect to excess distributions.

If a corporation is a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds shares in the corporation, then the corporation generally will continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to the holder's shares, even if the corporation no longer satisfies either the passive income or passive asset tests described above, unless the U.S. Holder terminates this deemed PFIC status by electing to recognize gain, which will be taxed under the excess distribution rules as if such shares had been sold on the last day of the last taxable year for which the corporation was a PFIC.

The excess distribution rules may be avoided if a U.S. Holder makes a QEF election effective beginning with the first taxable year in the holder's holding period in which the corporation is a PFIC. A U.S. Holder that makes a QEF election is required to include in income its pro rata share of the PFIC's ordinary earnings and net capital gain as ordinary income and long-term capital gain, respectively, subject to a separate election to defer payment of taxes, which deferral is subject to an interest charge. A U.S. Holder whose QEF election is effective after the first taxable year during the holder's holding period in which the corporation is a PFIC will continue to be subject to the excess distribution rules for years beginning with such first taxable year for which the QEF election is effective.

In general, a U.S. Holder makes a QEF election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621 to a timely filed (taking into account any extensions) U.S. federal income tax return for the year beginning with which the QEF election is to be effective. In certain circumstances, a U.S. Holder may be able to make a retroactive QEF election. A QEF election can be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. In order for a U.S. Holder to make a valid QEF election, the corporation must annually provide or make available to the holder certain information. We do not intend to provide to U.S. Holders the information required to make a valid QEF election and we currently make no undertaking to provide such information. Accordingly, it is currently anticipated that a U.S. Holder will not be able to avoid the special tax rules described above by making the QEF election.

As an alternative to making a QEF election, a U.S. Holder may make a "mark-to-market" election with respect to its PFIC shares if the shares meet certain minimum trading requirements. If a U.S. Holder makes a valid mark-to-market election for the first tax year in which such holder holds (or is deemed to hold) stock in a corporation and for which such corporation is determined to be a PFIC, such holder generally will not be subject to the PFIC rules described above in respect of its stock. Instead, a U.S. Holder that makes a mark-to-market election will be required to include in income each year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares that the holder owns as of the close of the taxable year over the holder's adjusted tax basis in the shares. The U.S. Holder will be entitled to a deduction for the excess, if any, of the holder's adjusted tax basis in the shares over the fair market value of the shares as of the close of the taxable year; provided, however, that the deduction will be limited to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains with respect to the shares included by the U.S. Holder under the election for prior taxable years. The U.S. Holder's basis in the shares will be adjusted to reflect the amounts included or deducted pursuant to the election. Amounts included in income pursuant to a mark-to-market election, as well as gain on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of the shares, will be treated as ordinary income. The deductible portion of any mark-to-market loss, as well as loss on a sale, exchange or other disposition of shares to the extent that the amount of such loss does not exceed net mark-to-market gains previously included in income, will be treated as ordinary loss.

The mark-to-market election applies to the taxable year for which the election is made and all subsequent taxable years, unless the shares cease to meet applicable trading requirements (described below) or the IRS consents to its revocation. The excess distribution rules generally do not apply to a U.S. Holder for tax years for which a mark-to-market election is in effect. However, if a U.S. Holder makes a mark-to-market election for PFIC stock after the beginning of the holder's holding period for the stock, a coordination rule applies to ensure that the holder does not avoid the tax and interest charge with respect to amounts attributable to periods before the election.

A mark-to-market election is available only if the shares are considered "marketable" for these purposes. Shares will be marketable if they are regularly traded on a national securities exchange that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission or on a non-U.S. exchange or market that the IRS determines has rules sufficient to ensure that the market price represents a legitimate and sound fair market value. For these purposes, shares will be considered regularly traded during any calendar year during which they are traded, other than in de minimis quantities, on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter. Any trades that have as their principal purpose meeting this requirement will be disregarded. Each U.S. Holder should ask its own tax advisor whether a mark-to-market election is available or desirable.

A U.S. Holder of PFIC stock must generally file an IRS Form 8621 annually. A U.S. Holder must also provide such other information as may be required by the U.S. Treasury Department if the U.S. Holder (i) receives certain direct or indirect distributions from a PFIC, (ii) recognizes gain on a direct or indirect disposition of PFIC stock, or (iii) makes certain elections (including a QEF election or a mark-to-market election) reportable on IRS Form 8621.

U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors as to our status as a PFIC, and, if we are treated as a PFIC, as to the effect on them of, and the reporting requirements with respect to, the PFIC rules and the desirability of making, and the availability of, either a QEF election or a mark-to-market election with respect to our Class A Ordinary Shares. We provide no advice on taxation matters.

***Information with Respect to Foreign Financial Assets***

In addition, certain U.S. Holders may be subject to certain reporting obligations with respect to Class A Ordinary Shares if the aggregate value of these and certain other "specified foreign financial assets" exceeds $50,000. If required, this disclosure is made by filing Form 8938 with the IRS. Significant penalties can apply if U.S. Holders are required to make this disclosure and fail to do so. In addition, a U.S. Holder should consider the possible obligation for online filing of a FinCEN Report 114—Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts Report as a result of holding Class A Ordinary Shares. U.S. Holders are thus encouraged to consult their U.S. tax advisors with respect to these and other reporting requirements that may apply to their acquisition of Class A Ordinary Shares.

***Information Reporting and Backup Withholding***

In general, information reporting requirements will apply to distributions made on our Class A Ordinary Shares within the U.S. to a non-corporate U.S. Holder and to the proceeds from the sale, exchange, redemption or other disposition of Class A Ordinary Shares by a non-corporate U.S. Holder to or through a U.S. office of a broker. Payments made (and sales or other dispositions effected at an office) outside the U.S. will be subject to information reporting in limited circumstances.

In addition, backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax may apply to such amounts if the U.S. Holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number (or otherwise establishes, in the manner provided by law, an exemption from backup withholding) or to report dividends required to be shown on the U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax returns.

Backup withholding is not an additional income tax, and the amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a U.S. Holder will be allowed as credit against the U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability provided that the appropriate returns are filed.

You should consult your own tax advisor as to the qualifications for exemption from backup withholding and the procedures for obtaining the exemption.

**ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

**Interest Rate Risk**

Interest rate fluctuations, primarily due to the uncertain future behavior of markets, may have a material impact on the financial results of a company. Given the fact that the Company has no outstanding bank borrowings or loans, we believe we have not been exposed to material risks due to changes in market interest rates. However, we cannot provide assurance that we will not be exposed to material risks due to changes in market interest rate in the future.

**Foreign Exchange Risk**

The functional currency of our operating subsidiary is Singapore dollar, and therefore our operations are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the Singapore dollar to the United States dollar.

**Liquidity Risk**

Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company may encounter challenges in fulfilling its obligations related to financial liabilities settled through cash or other financial assets. The Company's primary goal in managing liquidity is to ensure adequate resources are available to meet its obligations, both in normal circumstances and during stressed scenarios, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to its reputation. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company's cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. This monitoring process is typically conducted by the operating entity, adhering to established practices and limits defined by the Company.

**ITEM 12. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES OTHER THAN EQUITY SECURITIES**

**12. A. Debt Securities**

Not applicable.

**12. B. Warrants and Rights**

As of the date of this annual report, we have outstanding common warrants issued in connection with our follow-on offering completed in September 2024. Each common warrant is exercisable immediately for one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of US$0.85 per share and expires five years from the date of issuance. The common warrants are not listed on any securities exchange and do not confer any rights of a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares unless and until exercised. For further information, see the registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-282076), declared effective by the SEC on September 25, 2024, and the registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-288587), declared effective by the SEC on September 2, 2025.

**14. A. – 14.D. Material Modifications to the Rights of Security Holders**

See "Item 10. Additional Information" for a description of the rights of shareholders, which remain unchanged.

**14. E. Use of Proceeds**

The following "Use of Proceeds" information relates to the registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-282076), as amended, which was declared effective by the SEC on September 25, 2024, with respect to the Company's follow on offering completed on September 27, 2024 (the "Follow-on Offering"), and the registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-288587), as amended, which was declared effective by the SEC on September 2, 2025.

In the Follow-on Offering, the Company issued 5,300,000 units (the "Units"), each Unit consisting of one Class A Ordinary Share, par value $0.0002 per share (the "Class A Ordinary Shares") of Ryde, and one common warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share, at a price of US$0.85 per unit. Maxim Group LLC was the exclusive placement agent. The Company received gross proceeds in the amount of US$4.5 million and net proceeds of approximately US$4.09 million after deducting placement agent fees and expenses. As of the date of this annual report, we used the net proceeds received from the Follow-on Offering for working capital purposes. None of the net proceeds was paid, directly or indirectly, to any of our directors or officers or their associates, persons owning 10% or more of our equity securities or our affiliates or others. In April 2026, we received notices from certain warrant holders to exercise warrants to purchase 2,072,230 Class A Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of US$0.85 per share, generating gross proceeds of approximately US$1.8 million before fees and expenses. We intend to use, or have used, such proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes.

In September and December 2025, the Company issued 6,422,000 and 5,556,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to public investors through registered direct offerings, at an offering price of US$0.25 and US$0.36 per Class A share, respectively. The Company received gross proceeds in the amount of US$3.6 million and net proceeds of approximately US$3.38 million after deducting expenses. None of the transaction expenses included payments to directors or officers of our Company or their associates, persons owning more than 10% or more of our equity securities, or our affiliates. None of the net proceeds we received from the registered direct offering were paid, directly or indirectly, to any of our directors or officers or their associates, persons owning 10% or more of our equity securities, or our affiliates.

As of the date of this annual report, we have used all US$3.38 million from the net proceeds as advance payments for an evaluation of purchase of autonomous driving electric vehicles, deposits to purchase of electric vehicles and for work capital purposes.

**ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**Disclosure controls and procedures**

Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15(d)-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2025. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level.

**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 defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act. 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 generally accepted accounting principles.

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

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. Based on our evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025 based on the criteria set forth in the Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

**Attestation report of the registered public accounting firm**

Since we are an "emerging growth company" as defined under the JOBS Act, we are exempt from the requirement to comply with the auditor attestation requirements that our independent registered public accounting firm attest to and report on the effectiveness of our internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting.

**Changes in internal control over financial reporting**

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this annual report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**ITEM 16F. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT**

(1) Previous Independent Accountant

On October 10, 2024, the audit committee of the Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee") of Ryde Group Ltd (the "Company") dismissed Kreit & Chiu CPA LLP ("Kreit & Chiu") as its independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

The reports of Kreit & Chiu on the financial statements of the Company for the financial years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that such reports expressed substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the financial year ended December 31, 2022.

Furthermore, during the financial years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, through October 10, 2024, there were no disagreements with Kreit & Chiu on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope and procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Kreit & Chiu, would have caused Kreit & Chiu to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements for such periods.

There were no reportable events (as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) during the two financial years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, through October 10, 2024.

The Company provided Kreit & Chiu with a copy of the forgoing disclosure and requested Kreit & Chiu to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not Kreit & Chiu agrees with the above statements and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of Kreit & Chiu's letter, dated October 10, 2024, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Form 6-K(001-41950).

(2) New Independent Accountant

On October 10, 2024, the Audit Committee approved the proposed appointment of OneStop Assurance PAC ("OneStop") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. The services previously provided by Kreit & Chiu are to be provided by OneStop.

During the two financial years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, through October 10, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone acting on the Company's behalf, consulted OneStop with respect to any other matters or reportable events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K.

**ITEM 16G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**

We are a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and are listed on NYSE American. NYSE American rules permit a foreign private issuer to follow the corporate governance practices of our home country. Certain corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands, which is our home country, may differ significantly from NYSE American corporate governance listing standards applicable to domestic U.S. companies.

We are not required to have a compensation committee and a nominating committee composed entirely of independent directors. Although not required, we have a compensation committee and a nominating committee comprised of three independent directors.

We are also not required to obtain shareholder approval with respect (a) the establishment (or material amendment to) a stock option or purchase plan or other equity compensation arrangement as specified in Section 711 of the NYSE American LLC Company Guide; (b) the issuance of additional shares as sole or partial consideration for an acquisition of the stock or assets of another company in the circumstances specified in Section 712 of the NYSE American LLC Company Guide; and (c) the issuance of additional shares in connection with a transaction specified in Section 713 of the NYSE American LLC Company Guide, or that will result in a change of control of the Company.

Subject to the foregoing, we rely on the exemptions listed above. As a result, you may not be provided with the benefits of certain corporate governance requirements of NYSE American applicable to U.S. domestic public companies. For details, see the risk factor titled "As an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from NYSE American corporate governance listing standards" included in Item 3.D of this annual report.

**ITEM 16H. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURE**

**ITEM 16K. CYBERSECURITY**

**Risk Management and Strategy**

We maintain cybersecurity risk management program designed to identify, assess, manage, mitigate, and respond to cybersecurity threats. To implement such program, our management works closely with our IT, operations and finance teams. We have also developed and integrated certain mitigation measures and programs into our overall risk management framework, including robust security protocols, regular system updates, employee training, and incident response plans.

We have, from time to time, experienced threats to our data and systems, including malware and computer virus attacks. Although such risks have not materially affected us, and despite our proactive and extensive efforts to manage cybersecurity risks, we may not be successful in preventing or mitigating a cybersecurity incident that could have a material adverse effect on us. For more information about the cybersecurity risks we face, refer to "Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors" (and in particular the risk factors headed "Security, privacy, or data breaches involving sensitive, personal or confidential information could also expose us to liability under various laws and regulations, decrease trust in our platform, and increase the risk of litigation and governmental investigation." and "The proper uninterrupted functioning of our highly complex technology platform is essential to our business").

**Governance**

Our board of directors oversees the management of our cybersecurity risk. At the management level, our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Technology Officer are primarily responsible for assessing and managing material cybersecurity risks and incidents. They meet regularly with our IT and business operations teams to review cybersecurity performance metrics, identify top cybersecurity risks, and assess the status of cybersecurity programs and initiatives.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Ryde Group Ltd

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

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

**Basis for Opinion**

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

*Use of estimates*

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company's consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, impairment of long-lived assets and provision for expired credit. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

*Foreign currency translation and transaction*

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in the Singapore Dollars ("SGD" or "S$"), which is the reporting currency of the Company. The functional currency of the Company is in United States Dollars ("USD" or "US$") and the functional currency of the Company's subsidiaries are its local currencies, as determined based on the criteria of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 830 ("ASC 830") "Foreign Currency Matters". All information presented in S$ have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.

*Convenience translation*

Translations of balances in the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of changes in shareholders' equity and consolidated statements of cash flows from SGD into USD as of December 31, 2025 are solely for the convenience of the readers and are calculated at the rate of SGD1.00 = USD0.7777, representing the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board on December 31, 2025. No representation is made that the SGD amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into USD at such rate, or at any other rate.

*Cash and cash equivalents*

 

Cash and cash equivalents represent cash in bank and are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use.

*Accounts receivable, net*

Accounts receivable, net represent the amounts that the Company has an unconditional right to consideration from riders, other individual customers and enterprise customers, and primarily consist of (i) unpaid fare amounts from riders, (ii) fare amounts paid by riders but not yet received by the Company, (iii) fare amounts not yet paid by enterprise customers, (iv) unpaid amounts from individual customers and enterprise customers for other services completed. These accounts receivable are recorded net of any allowance for credit losses. Although the Company pre-authorize forms of payment to mitigate our exposure, the Company bear the cost of any accounts receivable losses. The Company record an allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable that may never settle or be collected.

*Deposits and prepayments*

 

Deposits and prepayments are classified as either current or non-current based on the terms of the respective agreements. These advances are unsecured and are reviewed periodically to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, management believes that the Company's prepayments and deposits are not impaired.

*Other receivables and allowance for expected credit losses* 

Other receivables primarily comprise advances, and amounts due from third parties.

Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the allowance for expected credit loss is adequate and provides allowance when necessary. The allowance is based on management's best estimates of specific losses on individual customer exposures, as well as the historical trends of collections. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the likelihood of collection is not probable. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company made nil allowance for expected credit losses for other receivables, respectively.

*Joint ventures*

 

The Company accounts for investments in joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the Company initially records its investment at cost and subsequently adjusts the carrying amount to recognize its share of the joint venture's net income or loss, which is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company's share of the joint venture's other comprehensive income (loss) is recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

The Company evaluates its equity method investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment might not be recoverable. An impairment is recorded when the decline in fair value of an investment is determined to be other-than-temporary.

*Provision for expired credit*

Provision for expired credit represent all expired credits that are not redeemed by consumers. A provision for expired credit is recognized when the credit expires, if the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. The provision is recognized as a reduction of expense in the consolidated income statement, and as an asset on the consolidated balance sheet. The amount of the provision for expired credit is estimated based on historical experience and the expected rate of redemption. The estimate is reviewed regularly and adjusted if necessary, based on actual experience.

*Property and equipment, net*

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment if applicable. The Company computes depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Computer | 3 years |
| Office equipment | 3 years |
| Renovations | 3 years |
| Operating lease right-of-use assets | 2 years |

---

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statement of income. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, while additions renewals and betterments, which are expected to extend the useful life of assets, are capitalized. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.

*Intangible assets, net*

 

Developed technology

Research costs are expensed as incurred. An intangible asset arising from development expenditure on an individual project is recognized only when the Company can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the assets, how that asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during the development. Deferred development costs have finite useful life and are amortized over a period of expected sales from the related project of 3 to 5 years on a straight-line basis from the date that they are available for use.

*Business combinations*

We account for our business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, allocation of the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. When determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Our estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with a corresponding offset to goodwill if new information is obtained related to facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. After the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are reflected on the consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition costs, such as legal and consulting fees, are expensed as incurred.

*Goodwill*

Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not subject to amortization, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the reporting unit may be in excess of its fair value. As part of the annual goodwill impairment test, the Company first performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. If, as a result of its qualitative assessment, it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the Company's reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test will be required. Alternatively, the Company may bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative impairment test.

No goodwill or impairment of goodwill is recognized in 2024 and 2025.

*Impairment of long-lived assets*

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets (asset groups), including property and equipment, intangible assets, and operating lease right-of-use assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of its asset (asset group) may not be fully recoverable. When these events occur, the Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset (asset group) and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset (asset group), the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset (asset group) over their fair value. Fair value is generally determined by discounting the cash flows expected to be generated by the asset (asset group), when the market prices are not readily available. The adjusted carrying amount of the asset is the new cost basis and is depreciated over the asset's remaining useful life. Long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities.

*Operating lease right-of-use assets*

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, operating lease liability, and operating lease liability, non-current in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When determining the lease term, the Company includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option, if any. As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company has elected not to recognize ROU asset and lease obligations for its short-term leases, which are defined as leases with an initial term of 12 months or less.

*Fair value measurements*

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in pricing the asset or liability. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Level 1 | - observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
| Level 2 | - other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. |
| Level 3 | - unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. |

---

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, deposits and prepayments, accounts payable, other payables to related parties, and accruals and other payables approximate their fair values because of their generally short maturities.

*Warrants*

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant's specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging." This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent year end date while the warrants are outstanding. Warrants that are determined to be equity-classified are recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance and are not remeasured thereafter.

*Revenue recognition*

 

Mobility and quick commerce arrangement

The Company recognizes revenue for its ride-hailing and quick commerce marketplace in accordance with ASC 606. The Company generates revenue from commissions and service fees (collectively, "fees") paid by driver partners and consumers for use of the Ryde platform to connect driver partners with consumers to facilitate and successfully complete transaction via the App where the Company operates as an agent. The Company recognizes revenue upon completion of each transaction. Driver partners and consumers enter into terms of service ("ToS") with the Company in order to use the Ryde App. Under the ToS, driver partners and consumers agree that the Company retains the applicable fee as consideration for their use of the Ryde platform from the fare and related charges it collects from consumers on behalf of driver partners. The Company is acting as an agent in facilitating the ability for a driver partner to provide a mobility and quick commerce service to a consumer. The Company reports revenue on a net basis, reflecting the fee owed to the Company from a driver partner as revenue, and not the gross amount collected from the consumer.

As the Company's customary business practice, a contract exists between the driver partner and consumer and the Company when the driver partner's and consumer's ability to cancel the transaction lapses, which typically is upon pickup of the consumer or goods. The Company's single performance obligation in the transaction is to connect driver partners with consumer to facilitate the completion of a successful mobility or quick commerce service for consumer. The Company recognizes revenue upon completion of a transaction as its performance obligation is satisfied upon the completion of the transaction. The Company collects the fare and related charges from consumers on behalf of driver partners using the consumer's pre-authorized credit card or other payment mechanism and retains its fees before making the remaining disbursement to driver partners; thus the driver partner's ability and intent to pay is not subject to significant judgment.

Principle vs Agent consideration

Judgment is required in determining whether the Company is the principal or agent in transactions with driver partners, and consumer. The Company evaluate the presentation of revenue on a gross or net basis based on whether the Company control the service provided to the consumers and are the principal (i.e. "gross"), or the Company arrange for other parties to provide the service to the consumers and are an agent (i.e. "net"). This determination also impacts the presentation of incentives provided to driver partners and discounts and promotions offered to consumers to the extent they are not customers.

For the mobility and quick-commerce transactions, the Company's role is to provide the service to driver partners to facilitate a successful trip or quick-commerce service to consumer. The Company concluded the Company do not control the good or service provided by driver partners to consumers as (i) the Company do not pre-purchase or otherwise obtain control of the goods or services prior to its transfer to the consumers; (ii) the Company do not direct driver partners to perform the service on our behalf, and (iii) the Company do not integrate services provided by driver partners with our other services and then provide them to consumers. As part of our evaluation of control, the Company review other specific indicators to assist in the principal versus agent conclusions. The Company are not primarily responsible for mobility and quick commerce services provided to consumers, nor do the Company have inventory risk related to these services. While the Company facilitate setting the price for mobility and quick commerce services, the driver partners and consumers have the ultimate discretion in accepting the transaction price and this indicator alone does not result in us controlling the services provided to consumers.

In transactions with consumers, the Company act as an agent of the driver partners by connecting consumers seeking mobility and quick commerce services with driver partners looking to provide these services. Driver partners and consumers are our customers and pay us a fee for each successfully completed transaction with consumers. Accordingly, the Company recognize revenue on a net basis, representing the fee the Company expect to receive in exchange for us providing the service to driver partners and consumers.

*Revenue recognition (continued)*

Mobility and quick commerce

The Company derives its mobility and quick commerce revenue primarily from fees paid by driver partners and consumers for use of the platform and related service to connect with consumers and successfully complete a transaction via the platform. The Company recognizes revenue when a transaction is completed.

The presentation of revenue is on a net basis. The Company is an agent as its performance obligation is to arrange for another party (i.e. the driver partners) to provide the mobility and quick commerce services. Through the Company's application, it allows for the connecting of the driver partners and consumers. The Company only facilitates by connecting the driver partners and consumers. The driver partners are responsible for fulfilling the contract.

Incentives provided to driver partners are recorded as a reduction of revenue if the Company does not receive a distinct good or service or cannot reasonably estimate the fair value of the good or service received. Incentives to driver partners that are not provided in exchange for a distinct good or service are evaluated as variable consideration, in the most likely amount to be earned by the driver partners at the time or as they are earned by the driver partners, depending on the type of incentive. Since incentives are earned over a short period of time, there is limited uncertainty when estimating variable consideration.

Excess driver partners incentives refer to cumulative payments to driver partners that exceed the cumulative revenue that are recognize from driver partners with no future guarantee of additional revenue. Cumulative payments to driver partners could exceed cumulative revenue from driver partners as a result of driver partners incentives or when the amount paid to driver partners for a trip exceeds the fare charged to the consumer. Driver partners incentives largely depend on the business decisions based on market conditions.

When the cumulative amount of driver partners incentives exceeds the cumulative revenue earned since inception of the driver partners relationship, the excess driver partners incentives are recorded in profit or loss as an expense. As a result, driver partners incentives provided to driver partners at the beginning of a relationship are typically classified as cost of revenue, while driver partners incentives provided to driver partners with a more mature relationship are typically classified as a reduction of revenue.

Incentive to consumers

The Company provides consumer incentives in the form of credit upon completion of transaction, with the aim of encouraging consumers to utilize the Ryde platform for their future transactions. These credits are offered to consumers in the market to acquire new consumers, re-engage existing customers, or generally increase overall use of the platform, and are similar to coupons. The Company records these credits as liability on the balance sheet and as driver and riders cost and related expenses in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss at the time these credits are redeemed by the consumers.

Revenue from Advertising

Revenue from advertising is recognized when the advertising services are provided to the merchant. The revenue is recognized at the amount of consideration that the company expects to be entitled to receive, net of any discounts or refunds. If the consideration for the advertising services includes barter trade, the revenue and cost are recognized separately based on the fair value of the barter trade.

The Company derives revenue from digital advertising services provided to merchants under contractual agreements. These services encompass the display of merchants' advertisements within our mobile/web platform and email channels. Revenue recognition commences at the initiation of the contract period, as stipulated in the signed agreement with our merchant clients. The Company employs the 'output method' to measure progress towards fulfilling its performance obligations. Under this method, revenue is recognized proportionately over the duration of the contractual period. This method accurately reflects the faithful depiction of the transfer of services, as it aligns with the nature of the services provided, where revenue is recognized based on the contractual period.

Membership

Revenue from membership is recognized over the period of the membership. The subscription fee is recognized as revenue over the subscription period. Any relevant costs incurred to provide the membership benefits are recognized as cost. The cashback bonuses, exclusive lifestyle and food and beverage perks, and discounts provided to the members are not recognized as revenue.

*Segments*

In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, the Company is required to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable segments. Reportable segments are operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet specific quantitative thresholds. The identification of operating segments is based on the internal reporting used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") to assess performance and allocate resources.

The Company has determined that it operates as a single operating and reportable segment. This conclusion is based on the following considerations:

● The Company is managed as a single business, with a single set of operating metrics used to assess performance and allocate resources;

● The CODM, who is the Company's Chief Executive Officer, reviews consolidated financial information to make operational and strategic decisions;

● The nature of the products and services, customer base, and methods of distribution are consistent across the business.

All significant operations, including assets and revenues, are located in and derived from Singapore. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, substantially all of the Company's long-lived assets were located in Singapore, and all revenue was generated from customers based in Singapore.

*Concentrations and credit risk*

Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. The Company has designed their credit policies with an objective to minimize their exposure to credit risk. The Company's accounts receivable are short term in nature and the associated risk is minimal. The Company conducts credit evaluations on its clients and generally does not require collateral or other security. The Company periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of the existing clients in determining the allowance for credit losses primarily based upon the age of the receivables and factors surrounding the credit risk of specific clients.

Concentration of customers

None of the customers consisted of more than 10% of revenue as of December 31, 2024, and 2025, respectively.

*Employee benefits*

Employee benefits are recognized as an expense, unless the cost qualifies to be capitalized as an asset.

Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Company pays fixed contributions into separate entities such as the Central Provident Fund on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. The Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The Central Provident Fund paid to The Central Provident Fund Board in Singapore is S$203,000 (US$155,000), S$205,000 (US$157,000), and S$211,000 (US$160,000) for the year ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 respectively.

*Share-based compensation*

The Company follows ASC 718, Compensation —Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards, including restricted stock units, based on estimated grant date fair values. Restricted stock units are valued using the market price of the Company's common shares on the date of grant. The Company records compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, over the requisite service period.

Awards classified in equity under ASC 718 that may be subject to temporary equity classification include:

● Shares with a repurchase feature that the employee can exercise only after the shares have been vested for at least six months, as well as options on such shares.

● Shares that have a contingent repurchase feature that is outside the control of the employee and the entity if it is currently probable that the contingency would not occur. Examples include shares redeemable only on the occurrence of a liquidity event, such as a change of control.

● Options that have a contingent cash-settlement provision not within the employee's or the entity's control if it is not currently probable that the contingency would occur.

*Related parties*

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or significant influence of the same party, such as a family member or relative, shareholder, or a related corporation.

*Income taxes*

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are also provided for net operating loss carry forwards that can be utilized to offset future taxable income.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established, when necessary, to reduce net deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

The provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-25, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes," prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures.

*Government grants*

Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and all attaching conditions will be complied with. Government grants shall be recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognizes as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Government grant is recognized as 'Other income' in profit or loss.

The following is a description of the government grants the Company have received for the financial year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

● The Progressive Wage Credit Scheme: It was introduced in Singapore Budget 2022 to provide transitional wage support for employers to adjust to upcoming mandatory wage increases for lower-wage workers covered by the Progressive Wage and Local Qualifying Salary requirements and voluntarily raise wages of lower-wage workers.

● CPF Transition Offset: Transitory wage offsets provided by the Government equivalent to 50% of each year's increase in employer CPF contribution rates for every Singaporean and Permanent Resident employee aged above 55 to 70 to alleviate the rise in business costs due to the increase in CPF contribution rates for senior workers.

● Government-Paid Leave schemes: Leave schemes provided by the Government to support parents in having and raising children by reimbursing the companies for leaves taken by eligible employees.

● Corporate Income Tax Rebate Cash Grant: A cash grant provided by the Government to support eligible companies that have employed at least one local employee, to help them manage rising costs.

*Earnings (loss) per share*

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options, warrants and convertible debt were exercised or converted into Ordinary Shares. When the Company has a loss, diluted shares are not included as their effect would be anti-dilutive. The Company has no dilutive securities or debt for each of the year ended 31 December 2025, 2024 and 2023.

*Interest rate risk*

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Company's financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk arises mainly from its interest-bearing financial liabilities. The Company periodically reviews its liabilities and monitors interest rate fluctuations to ensure that the exposure to interest rate risk is within acceptable levels. The interest-bearing financial liabilities are usually at fixed interest rates except for money market loans, bank overdrafts and floating interest rate loans. The Company does not utilize interest rate derivatives to minimize its interest rate risk.

*Commitments and Contingencies*

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to contingencies, including legal proceedings and claims arising out of the business that relate to a wide range of matters, such as government investigations and tax matters. The Company recognizes its liability for such contingency if it determines it is probable that a loss has occurred and a reasonable estimate of the loss can be made. The Company may consider many factors in making these assessments including historical and the specific facts and circumstances of each matter. As of December 31, 2025, the Company was not subject to any material commitments or contingencies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(a)* *Share-based compensation to employees* 

In August 2023, the Company have established an employee share option scheme (the "Scheme") pursuant to which the right to subscribe for Class A Ordinary Shares may be granted to employees of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates who meet the eligibility criteria in accordance with the rules of the Scheme. The Scheme will subsist from September 14, 2023 till the date of the listing of the Company on a securities exchange or till the date on which the Scheme is terminated by the board of directors of the Company, whichever is earlier.

In September 2023, the Company issued 1,131,715 Class A Ordinary Shares issued to certain employees of the Company pursuant to the Scheme.

The fair value of the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to employees was measured using the Black-Scholes method. A summary of the measurement of the fair values and inputs at grant date is as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **2023** |
| Fair value at grant date (weighted average) | 0.81 - 1.18 |
| Exercise price at grant date (weighted average) | 0.0002 |
| Expected volatility (weighted average) | 1.74% |
| Expected terms (days) (weighted average) | 4 |
| Expected dividend (weighted average) | 0% |
| Risk-free interest rate (weighted average) | 5.51% |

---

Risk-free interest rate is estimated based on the yield curve of US Sovereign Bond as of the option valuation date. The expected volatility at the grant date and each option valuation date is estimated based on annualized standard deviation of daily stock price return of comparable companies with a time horizon close to the expected term of the options. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its capital stock, and the Company does not anticipate any dividend payments in the foreseeable future. Expected term is the period of time from the grant date to the exercise date or the forfeiture date. The lock-up period of the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to the employees are subject for a period varying between 12 months to 36 months.

In March 2025, the Company issued 3,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares of the Company, to Mr. Terence Zou, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of the Company, to recognize his significant contribution to the Company's business operations for the financial year 2024. The fair value of the Class B Ordinary Shares issued to Mr. Terence Zou was measured based on the closing market share price of US$0.3200 per share.

In October 2025 and December 2025, the Company granted Class B Ordinary Shares to CEO as part of a share-based compensation arrangement to incentivize performance and align management's interests with shareholders.

The arrangement consists of:

Immediate awards: 2,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares granted in October 2025 in recognition of his significant contribution to the successful completion of the recent US$1.6 million Registered Direct Offering, a key step in reinforcing the Company's capital base and positioning Ryde for its next phase of growth.

Performance-based awards: Up to 30,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares granted on October 2, 2025, subject to achievement of specified performance conditions, primarily linked to: fundraising milestones ranging from US$5 million to US$40 million, and revenue growth targets. Shares are issued upon achievement of each performance milestone. There are no service conditions beyond the achievement of the specified performance conditions.

**Grant date and valuation**

The Company determined that October 2, 2025 represents the grant date for the performance-based awards, as the Compensation Committee approved the key terms and established a contingent obligation to issue shares upon achievement of the specified performance conditions.

The fair value of the equity awards was measured based on the closing market price of the Company's shares on the respective grant dates, consistent with ASC 718.

---

**Unrecognized compensation cost**

As of December 31, 2025, 14,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares remain subject to future fundraising milestones. The Company determined that achievement of these milestones was not yet probable, as:

○ fundraising activities had not yet been initiated,

○ future fundraising outcomes remain dependent on market conditions and investor participation, and

○ no binding commitments had been secured.

Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for these awards as of December 31, 2025.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025, the Company recognized share-based compensation to employees of S$1,489,000, nil, and S$10,184,000 (US$7,919,000) respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The fair value of the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to consultants was measured based on the closing market share price of US$4.84 per share.

In September 2024, the Company issued 107,555 Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company to Maxim Group, LLC ("Maxim") upon its cashless exercise of representative's warrants that were issued to Maxim in connection with the Company's IPO.

In October and November 2025, the Company issued 1,350,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to certain consultants of the Company in consideration for consulting services provided to the Company. The fair value of the Class A Ordinary Shares issued to consultants was measured based on the closing market share price of US$0.5599, US$0.4609, US$0.5251 per share respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025, the Company recognized share-based compensation to non-employees of S$5,470,000, S$10,347,000, and S$915,000 (US$712,000) respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

to a service-based vesting condition, under which the awards remained unvested and were subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment,
whether voluntary or involuntary. Each RSU entitles the holder to receive one Class A Ordinary Share of the Company, subject to the terms
and conditions of the Share Incentive Plan, with each share carrying no par value or the minimum par value required under applicable statutory
regulations.

(b) On

 of the Company, at an offering price of US$0.40 (the "**Offering** "). The
 Offering closed on April 13, 2026. The
 aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the Offering, before deducting estimated expenses payable by the Company, is approximately

 the Company issued 3,500,000 Class B Ordinary Shares of the Company, to its Founder, Chairman,

 2025 .

(e) On April 7, 2026, the Company issued 605,000 Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company to certain consultants for providing
services in relation to strategizing with the Company on its positioning and road map for capital
raising, and assist in dealing with investor relation matters.

(f) In April 2026, the Company received notices from certain warrant holders to exercise warrants to purchase 2,072,230 Class A Ordinary Shares. The warrants were issued in connection with the Company's follow-on public offering completed on September

(g) On

 during the Option Period. Any portion of the Deposit not applied toward the purchase of Assets during the Option Period will be refunded
 in full to the Company upon expiration of the Option Period. Any such acquisitions will be subject to the Company's internal
 approval processes and applicable regulatory requirements.

## Exhibit 11.2

**Exhibit 11.2**

**RYDE GROUP LTD**

**INSIDER TRADING AND CONFIDENTIALITY POLICY**

***As adopted by the Board of Directors, effective September 25, 2023***

 ****

This Policy confirms procedures which employees and directors of Ryde Group Ltd (the "**Company**") and its subsidiaries must follow. This Policy is subject to modification from time to time as the Board deems necessary or advisable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. *Prohibition Against Trading on Material Nonpublic Information* 

During the course of your service at the Company or its subsidiaries, you may become aware of material nonpublic information. It is difficult to describe exhaustively what constitutes "material" information, but you should assume that any information, positive or negative, which might be of significance to an investor, as part of the total mix of available information, in determining whether to purchase, sell or hold Company stock would be "material". Information may be significant for this purpose even if it would not alone determine the investor's decision.

Examples of "material" information include:

● internal financial information which departs in any way from what the market would expect

● changes in sales, earnings or dividends

● an important financing transaction

● stock splits or other transactions relating to Company stock

● mergers, tender offers or acquisitions of other companies, or major purchases or sales of assets

● major management changes

● sales or purchases by the Company of its own securities

● major litigation or regulatory developments

● significant process or product developments

● gain or loss of a major customer or supplier

● major transactions with other companies or entities, such as joint ventures or licensing agreements

● the extent to which external events, including but not limited to pandemics, have had or will have a material impact on the Company's operating results

● a major cybersecurity incident

Note that this list is merely illustrative and not exhaustive.

"***Nonpublic***" information is any information which has not yet been disclosed generally to the marketplace. Information received about a company under circumstances which indicate that it is not yet in general circulation should be considered nonpublic. As a rule, you should be able to point to some fact to show that the information is generally available; for example, disclosure within a report filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, issuance of a press release by the Company or announcement of the information in *The Wall Street Journal* or other news publication.

Even after the Company has released information to the press or the information has been reported, at least one full Trading Day must elapse before you trade in Company stock. For the purposes of this policy, a "***Trading Day***" shall mean any day on which the NYSE American is open for trading. For example, if the Company issues a press release containing material information at 6:00 p.m. on a Tuesday, and the NYSE American is open for trading on Wednesday, persons subject to this policy shall not be permitted to trade in Company stock until Thursday. If the Company issues a press release containing material information at 6:00 p.m. on a Friday, and the NYSE American is open for trading on Monday, persons subject to this policy shall not be permitted to trade in Company stock until Tuesday.

If you are aware of material nonpublic information regarding the Company you are prohibited from trading in Company stock, unless such trade is made pursuant to a properly qualified, adopted and submitted Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. Rule 10b5-1 trading plans are discussed in Section 2 of this Policy. You also are prohibited from giving "tips" on material nonpublic information, that is directly or indirectly disclosing such information to any other person, including family members and relatives, so that they may trade in Company stock. Furthermore, if you learn material nonpublic information about another company with which the Company does business, such as a supplier, customer or joint venture partner, or you learn that the Company is planning a major transaction with another company (such as an acquisition), you must not trade in the securities of the other company until such information has been made public for at least one full Trading Day.

The policy against trading securities when in possession of material nonpublic information applies to all employees and directors of the Company as well as their family members. For purposes of this Policy, a "family member" includes a person's spouse, parents, children, siblings, mothers and fathers-in-law, sons and daughters-in-law, brothers and sisters-in-law, and anyone (other than domestic employees) who shares such person's home. It also applies to former employees and directors and their family members.

In addition, you and your family members may not, under any circumstances, trade options for, or sell "short," Company stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. *Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans* 

Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "***Exchange Act***") provides an affirmative defense against a claim of insider trading if an insider's trades are made pursuant to a written plan that was adopted in good faith at a time when the insider was not aware of material nonpublic information. It is the Company's policy that employees and directors may make trades pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan provided that (i) such plan meets the requirements of Rule 10b5-1, (ii) such plan was adopted at a time when the employee or director would otherwise have been able to trade under Section 3 of this policy and (iii) adoption of the plan was expressly authorized by a member of the Company's Legal Department. Note that trades made pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans by executive officers and directors must still be reported to the Human Resources pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 4 below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. *Permitted Trading Periods for Non-Rule 10b5-1 Trades* 

The executive officers and directors and all members of the finance or legal departments, and their family members may only trade Company securities during the period commencing one full Trading Day following a release of quarterly results and ending on the date that is ten Trading Days prior to the end of the subsequent quarter. Nonetheless, as mentioned above, no trade of Company securities may be made during these periods if the person covered by this policy possesses material nonpublic information which has not been disseminated in the public market for at least one full Trading Day.

From time to time, upon prior notice to the persons affected, the Company may impose event- specific special blackout periods during which some or all executive officers and directors are prohibited from trading in Company securities.

The trading restrictions set forth in this Section 3 do not apply to any trades made pursuant to properly qualified, adopted and submitted Rule 10b5-1 trading plans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. *Preclearance; Reporting Trades* 

 

In addition to complying with the prohibition on trading during scheduled and event-specific special blackout periods, the executive officers and directors must first obtain pre-clearance from the Company's Human Resources before engaging in any transaction in securities of the Company. A request for pre- clearance should be submitted to the Human Resources at least 48 hours in advance of the proposed transaction. If a proposed transaction receives pre-clearance, the pre-cleared trade must be effected within 48 hours of receipt of pre-clearance. If the person becomes aware of material nonpublic information before the trade is executed, the pre-clearance is void and the trade must not be completed. Transactions not effected within the time limit become subject to pre-clearance again. If a person seeks pre-clearance and permission to engage in the transaction is denied, then he or she should refrain from initiating any transaction in securities of the Company, and should not inform any other person of the restriction.

The Company require that all executive officers and directors submit to the Company's Human Resources a copy of any trade order or confirmation relating to the purchase or sale of Company securities within one business day on the date of any such transaction. This information is necessary to enable us to monitor trading by executive officers and directors and ensure that all such trades are properly reported. Your adherence to this policy is vital to your protection as well as the Company's.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. *Hedging Transactions* 

 

Hedging transactions may insulate you from upside or downside price movement in Company stock which can result in the perception that you no longer have the same interests as the Company's other stockholders. Accordingly, you and your family members may not enter into hedging or monetization transactions or similar arrangements with respect to Company stock, including the purchase or sale of puts or calls or the use of any other derivative instruments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. *Margin Accounts and Pledging* 

 

Securities held in a margin account or pledged as collateral for a loan may be sold without your consent by the broker if you fail to meet a margin call or by the lender in foreclosure if you default on the loan. A margin or foreclosure sale that occurs when you are aware of material nonpublic information may, under some circumstances, result in unlawful insider trading. Because of this danger, you may not hold Company securities in a margin account nor pledge Company securities as collateral for a loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. *Duration of Policy's Applicability.* 

 

This Policy continues to apply to your transactions in Company stock or the stock of other public companies engaged in business transactions with the Company even after your employment or directorship with the Company has terminated. If you are in possession of inside information when your relationship with the Company concludes, you may not trade in Company stock or the stock of such other company until the information has been publicly disseminated or is no longer material.

\* \* \*

THESE ARE VERY SERIOUS MATTERS. INSIDER TRADING IS ILLEGAL AND CAN RESULT IN JAIL SENTENCES AS WELL AS CIVIL PENALTIES, INCLUDING TRIPLE DAMAGES. EMPLOYEES WHO VIOLATE THIS POLICY MAY BE SUBJECT TO DISCIPLINARY ACTION BY THE COMPANY, INCLUDING DISMISSAL FOR CAUSE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTION OR DOUBT ABOUT THE APPLICABILITY OR INTERPRETATION OF THIS POLICY OR THE PROPRIETY OF ANY DESIRED ACTION, PLEASE SEEK CLARIFICATION FROM OUR CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, PRESIDENT OR CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER. PLEASE ALSO SEE FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ATTACHED HERETO AS EXHIBIT A. DO NOT TRY TO RESOLVE UNCERTAINTIES ON YOUR OWN.

**ACKNOWLEDGMENT**

The undersigned acknowledges that he/she has read this Insider Trading Policy and agrees to comply with the restrictions and procedures contained herein.

## Exhibit 97.1

**Exhibit 97.1**

**RYDE GROUP LTD**

**POLICY ON RECOUPMENT OF INCENTIVE COMPENSATION**

**<u>Introduction</u>**

The Board of Directors (the "<u>Board</u>") of Ryde Group Ltd (the "<u>Company</u>") has adopted this Policy on Recoupment of Incentive Compensation (this "<u>Policy</u>"), which provides for the recoupment of compensation in certain circumstances in the event of a restatement of financial results by the Company. This Policy shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("<u>SEC</u>") rules and the NYSE American listing standards implementing Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the "<u>Dodd-Frank Act</u>") and, to the extent this Policy is in any manner deemed inconsistent with such rules, this Policy shall be treated as retroactively amended to be compliant with such rules.

**<u>Administration</u>**

This Policy shall be administered by the Compensation Committee. Any determinations made by the Compensation Committee shall be final and binding on all affected individuals. The Compensation Committee is authorized to interpret and construe this Policy and to make all determinations necessary, appropriate or advisable for the administration of this Policy, in all cases consistent with the Dodd-Frank Act. The Board or Compensation Committee may amend this Policy from time to time in its discretion.

**<u>Covered Executives</u>**

This Policy applies to any current or former "executive officer," within the meaning of Rule 10D-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company (each such individual, an "<u>Executive</u>"). This Policy shall be binding and enforceable against all Executives and their beneficiaries, executors, administrators, and other legal representatives.

**<u>Recoupment Upon Financial Restatement</u>**

If the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period (a "<u>Financial Restatement</u>"), the Compensation Committee shall cause the Company to recoup from each Executive, as promptly as reasonably possible, any erroneously awarded Incentive-Based Compensation, as defined below.

**<u>No-Fault Recovery</u>**

Recoupment under this Policy shall be required regardless of whether the Executive or any other person was at fault or responsible for accounting errors that contributed to the need for the Financial Restatement or engaged in any misconduct.

**<u>Compensation Subject to Recovery; Enforcement</u>**

This Policy applies to all compensation granted, earned or vested based wholly or in part upon the attainment of any financial reporting measure determined and presented in accordance with the accounting principles used in preparing the Company's financial statements, and any measure that is derived wholly or in part from such measures, whether or not presented within the Company's financial statements or included in a filing with the SEC, including stock price and total shareholder return ("<u>TSR</u>"), including but not limited to performance-based cash, stock, options or other equity-based awards paid or granted to the Executive ("<u>Incentive-Based Compensation</u>"). Compensation that is granted, vests or is earned based solely upon the occurrence of non-financial events, such as base salary, restricted stock or options with time-based vesting, or a bonus awarded solely at the discretion of the Board or Compensation Committee and not based on the attainment of any financial measure, is not subject to this Policy.

In the event of a Financial Restatement, the amount to be recovered will be the excess of (i) the Incentive-Based Compensation received by the Executive during the Recovery Period (as defined below) based on the erroneous data and calculated without regard to any taxes paid or withheld, over (ii) the Incentive-Based Compensation that would have been received by the Executive had it been calculated based on the restated financial information, as determined by the Compensation Committee. For purposes of this Policy, "<u>Recovery Period</u>" means the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare the Financial Restatement, as determined in accordance with the last sentence of this paragraph, or any transition period that results from a change in the Company's fiscal year (as set forth in Section 811(c)(1)(i)(D) of the NYSE American LLC Company Guide). The date on which the Company is required to prepare a Financial Restatement is the earlier to occur of (A) the date the Board or a Board committee (or authorized officers of the Company if Board action is not required) concludes, or reasonably should have concluded, that the Company is required to prepare a Financial Restatement or (B) the date a court, regulator, or other legally authorized body directs the Company to prepare a Financial Restatement.

For Incentive-Based Compensation based on stock price or TSR, where the amount of erroneously awarded compensation is not subject to mathematical recalculation directly from the information in the Financial Restatement, then the Compensation Committee shall determine the amount to be recovered based on a reasonable estimate of the effect of the Financial Restatement on the stock price or TSR upon which the Incentive-Based Compensation was received and the Company shall document the determination of that estimate and provide it to the NYSE American.

Incentive-Based Compensation is considered to have been received by an Executive in the fiscal year during which the applicable financial reporting measure was attained or purportedly attained, even if the payment or grant of such Incentive-Based Compensation occurs after the end of that period.

The Company may use any legal or equitable remedies that are available to the Company to recoup any erroneously awarded Incentive-Based Compensation, including but not limited to by collecting from the Executive cash payments or shares of Company common stock from or by forfeiting any amounts that the Company owes to the Executive. Executives shall be solely responsible for any tax consequences to them that result from the recoupment or recovery of any amount pursuant to this Policy, and the Company shall have no obligation to administer the Policy in a manner that avoids or minimizes any such tax consequences.

**<u>No Indemnification</u>**

The Company shall not indemnify any Executive or pay or reimburse the premium for any insurance policy to cover any losses incurred by such Executive under this Policy or any claims relating to the Company's enforcement of rights under this Policy.

**<u>Exceptions</u>**

The compensation recouped under this Policy shall not include Incentive-Based Compensation received by an Executive (i) prior to beginning service as an Executive or (ii) if he or she did not serve as an Executive at any time during the performance period applicable to the Incentive-Based Compensation in question. The Compensation Committee or a majority of independent directors serving on the Board may determine not to seek recovery from an Executive in whole or part to the extent it determines in its sole discretion that such recovery would be impracticable because (A) the direct expense paid to a third party to assist in enforcing recovery would exceed the recoverable amount (after having made a reasonable attempt to recover the erroneously awarded Incentive-Based Compensation and providing corresponding documentation of such attempt to the NYSE American), (B) recovery would violate the home country law that was adopted prior to November 28, 2023, as determined by an opinion of counsel licensed in the applicable jurisdiction that is acceptable to and provided to the NYSE American, or (C) recovery would likely cause the Company's 401(k) plan or any other tax-qualified retirement plan to fail to meet the requirements of Section 401(a)(13) or Section 411(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations thereunder.

**<u>Other Remedies Not Precluded</u>**

The exercise by the Compensation Committee of any rights pursuant to this Policy shall be without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee may have with respect to any Executive subject to this Policy, whether arising under applicable law (including pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002), regulation or pursuant to the terms of any other policy of the Company, employment agreement, equity award, cash incentive award or other agreement applicable to an Executive.
