    We will incur significantly increased costs and devote substantial management time as a result of the listing of our Ordinary Shares.

    We will incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses as a public reporting company, particularly after we cease to qualify as an emerging growth company. For example, we will be required to comply with the additional requirements of the rules and regulations of the SEC and the Nasdaq rules, including applicable corporate governance practices. We expect that compliance with these requirements will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, we expect that our management and other personnel will need to divert attention from operational and other business matters to devote substantial time to these public company requirements. We cannot predict or estimate the number of additional costs we may incur as a result of becoming a public company or the timing of such costs. 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.

    We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under 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: - 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;- the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents, or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act;- 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 - 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 months of the end of each fiscal year. In addition, we intend to publish our results on a semi-annual basis through press releases, distributed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market. 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, which would be made available to you, were you investing in a U.S. domestic issuer.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    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 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 for so long as we are an emerging growth company. The JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company does not need to comply with any 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. 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.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4
    Certain judgments obtained against us by our shareholders may not be enforceable.

    We are a Cayman Islands exempted company and all of our assets are located outside of the United States. All of our current operations are conducted in the PRC. In addition, all of our current directors and officers are located in the PRC. Substantially all of the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against us or against these individuals in the United States in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed under the U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands and of the PRC may render you unable to enforce a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors and officers.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5
    You may be unable to present proposals before annual general meetings or extraordinary general meetings not called by shareholders.

    Cayman Islands law provides shareholders with only limited rights to requisition a general meeting, and does not provide shareholders with any right to put any proposal before a general meeting. These rights, however, may be provided in a company's articles of association. Our articles of association allow one or more of our shareholders holding shares together representing in aggregate at least 10% of the rights to vote at such general meeting, to requisition a general meeting of our shareholders and the requisition must be in writing, in which case our directors are obliged to call such meeting. Advance notice of at least seven clear days is required for the convening of a general meeting. A quorum required for a general meeting is (a) if the Company has only one member: that member; (b) if the Company has more than one member, one or more members holding shares that represent not less than one-third of the outstanding shares carrying the right to vote at such general meeting present in person or by proxy or if a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorized representative or proxy. For these purposes, "clear days" means that period of calendar days excluding (a) the calendar day when the notice is given or deemed to be given and (b) the calendar day for which it is given or on which it is to take effect.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 6
    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. Our corporate affairs are governed by our memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from the common law of England, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding, on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a less developed body of securities laws than the United States. Some U.S. states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law than the Cayman Islands. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have the standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States. Shareholders of Cayman Islands exempted companies like us have no general rights under Cayman Islands law to inspect corporate records or to obtain copies of the register of members of these companies. Our directors have discretion under our articles of association to determine whether or not, and under what conditions, our corporate records may be inspected by our shareholders, but are not obliged to make them available to our shareholders. This may make it more difficult for you to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder motion or to solicit proxies from other shareholders in connection with a proxy contest. Certain corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands, which is our home country, differ significantly from requirements for companies incorporated in other jurisdictions such as the U.S. Currently, we do not plan to rely on home country practice with respect to any corporate governance matter. However, if we choose to follow our home country practice in the future, 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, public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by our management, members of the board of directors or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a company incorporated in the United States.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 7
    If we are classified as a passive foreign investment company, United States taxpayers who own our Ordinary Shares may have adverse United States federal income tax consequences.

    A non-U.S. corporation such as us will be classified as a passive foreign investment company, which is known as a PFIC, for any taxable year if, for such year, either - At least 75% of our gross income for the fiscal year is passive income; or - The average percentage of our assets (determined at the end of each quarter) during the taxable year which produces passive income or which 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. If we are determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. taxpayer who holds our Ordinary Shares, the U.S. taxpayer may be subject to increased U.S. federal income tax liability and may be subject to additional reporting requirements. The determination of whether we are a PFIC is a fact-intensive determination made on an annual basis applying principles and methodologies that in some circumstances are unclear and subject to varying interpretation. We will make this determination following the end of any particular tax year. For purposes of the PFIC analysis, in general, a non-U.S. corporation is deemed to own its pro rata share of the gross income and assets of any entity in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the equity by value. For a more detailed discussion of the application of the PFIC rules to us and the consequences to U.S. taxpayers if we were determined to be a PFIC, see "Item 10. Additional Information - E. Taxation - Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations - Passive Foreign Investment Company."

    If we are unable to continue to meet the listing requirements of Nasdaq, our Class A Ordinary Shares will be delisted.

    On October 30, 2025, we received a notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, stating that our Class A Ordinary Shares fail to comply with the US$1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) based upon the closing bid price of the Class A Ordinary Shares for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the notice, and we were given an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until April 28, 2026, to regain compliance. If we are unable to achieve and maintain compliance with such listing standards or other Nasdaq listing requirements in the future, our Class A Ordinary Shares could be delisted from Nasdaq. A delisting of our Class A Ordinary Shares and our inability to list on another national securities market could negatively impact us by: (i) reducing the liquidity and market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares; (ii) reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our Class A Ordinary Shares, which could negatively impact our ability to raise equity financing; (iii) limiting our ability to use certain registration statements to offer and sell freely tradable securities, thereby limiting our ability to access the public capital markets; and (iv) impairing our ability to provide equity incentives to our employees.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 9
    The trading price of our Ordinary Shares may be volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors.

    The trading price of our 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 China that have listed their securities in the United States. A number of Chinese companies have listed or are in the process of listing their securities on U.S. stock markets. The securities of some of these companies have experienced significant volatility, including price declines in connection with their initial public offerings. The trading performance of these Chinese companies' securities after their offerings may affect the attitudes of investors toward Chinese companies listed in the United States in general and consequently may impact the trading performance of our Ordinary Shares, regardless of our actual operating performance. In addition to market and industry factors, the price and trading volume for our Ordinary Shares may be highly volatile for factors specific to our own operations, including the following: - regulatory developments affecting us or our industry;- actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly results of operations and changes or revisions of our expected results;- changes in financial estimates by securities research analysts;- conditions in the market for hash power sever and solar PV products;- announcements by us or our competitors of new product and service offerings, acquisitions, strategic relationships, joint ventures, capital raisings or capital commitments;- additions to or departures of our senior management;- fluctuations of exchange rates between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar;- release or expiry of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on our outstanding shares;- negative publicity regarding Chinese listed companies; and - sales or perceived potential sales of additional Ordinary Shares. Any of these factors may result in large and sudden changes in the volume and price at which our Ordinary 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 financial condition and results of operations.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 10
    An active trading market for our Ordinary Shares or our Ordinary Shares may not develop and the trading price for our Ordinary Shares may fluctuate significantly.

    Prior to our initial public offering, there has been no public market for our Ordinary Shares. Our Ordinary Shares have been approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If an active trading market for the Ordinary Shares does not develop after our initial public offering, the market price and liquidity of the Ordinary Shares will be materially and adversely affected. The initial public offering price for our Ordinary Shares was determined by negotiation between us and the underwriters based upon several factors, and we can provide no assurance that the trading price of our Ordinary Shares will not decline below the initial public offering price. As a result, investors in our securities may experience a significant decrease in the value of their Ordinary Shares.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 11
    The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares could adversely affect their market price.

    Sales of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Ordinary Shares and could materially impair our ability to raise capital through equity offerings in the future. We cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of securities held by our significant shareholders or any other shareholder or the availability of these securities for future sales will have on the market price of our Ordinary Shares. In addition, if we issue additional Ordinary Shares, either through private transactions or in the public markets in the United States or other jurisdiction, your ownership interests in our Company would be diluted and this, in turn, would have an adverse effect on the price of our Ordinary Shares. Moreover, the perceived risk of this potential dilution could cause shareholders to attempt to sell their shares and investors to shorten our Ordinary Shares. These sales also may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 12
    If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our Ordinary Shares, the market price for our Ordinary Shares and trading volume could decline.

    The trading market for our Ordinary Shares will be influenced by research or reports that industry or securities analysts publish about our business. If one or more analysts who cover us downgrade our Ordinary Shares, the market price for our Ordinary Shares would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease to cover us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the market price or trading volume for our Ordinary Shares to decline.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 13
    Future issuances of Class B Ordinary Shares may be dilutive to holders of Class A Ordinary Shares.

    We may issue additional Class B Ordinary Shares in the future in connection with future financings, strategic transactions, equity incentive plans, or otherwise. Any such issuance could result in dilution to existing holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares. In addition, since Class B Ordinary Shares carry greater voting rights than Class A Ordinary Shares, any future issuances of Class B Ordinary Shares could have the effect of further concentrating voting power in certain shareholders. This may reduce the influence of Class A Ordinary Shareholders over matters requiring shareholder approval. There can be no assurance as to when or if we will issue additional Class B Ordinary Shares, or the terms of any such issuance. However, any such future issuances could materially and adversely affect the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and dilute the interests of existing Class A Ordinary Shareholders.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 14
    Our dual class share structure with different voting rights, as well as the concentration of our share ownership among executive officers, directors and principal shareholders, will limit your ability to influence corporate matters and could discourage others from pursuing any change of control transactions that holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares may view as beneficial.

    We have adopted a dual class share structure such that our Ordinary Shares consist of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. In respect of matters requiring the votes of shareholders, each Class A Ordinary Share is entitled to one (1) vote and each Class B Ordinary Share is entitled to thirty-five (35) votes. Each Class B Ordinary Share is convertible into one Class A Ordinary share at any time by the holder thereof. Our Class A Ordinary Shares are not convertible into our Class B Ordinary Shares under any circumstances. Only our Class A Ordinary Shares are listed on Nasdaq. As of the date of this annual report, Mr. Weiqi Huang, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the board will beneficially own all of our issued and outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares, which will constitute approximately 97% of the total voting power. As a result of this dual class share structure and the concentration of control, Mr. Weiqi Huang has significant influence over our business, including decisions regarding mergers, consolidations, liquidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, election of directors and other significant corporate actions as of the date of this annual report. This concentration of control 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 voting structure will also limit your ability to influence corporate matters and could discourage investors from pursuing any change of control transactions that holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares may view as beneficial.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 15
    Our dual class share structure with different voting rights may adversely affect the value and liquidity of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

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

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
