Value Exchange International (VEII) Risk Analysis

The market for our Common Stock can be characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be potentially more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, as noted above, our Common Stock are sporadically and thinly traded. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our shareholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of shares of our Common Stock are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price. Secondly, we are a speculative or "risky" investment due to our limited operations and lack of sustained profits to date, and uncertainty of future market acceptance for our existing and potential products and services. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our Common Stock, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our Common Stock will be at any time, including as to whether our common stock will sustain their current market prices, or as to what effect that the sale of shares or the availability of common stock for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price.

Due to a lack of a significant public float, institutional investor support and primary market makers, VEII Common Stock is less liquid, receives little if no coverage by security analysts and news media, and generates lower prices than might otherwise be obtained if the Common Stock was listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on NASDAQ, had institutional investor support, active primary market makers and had analysts' coverage. The penny stock status of the Company makes very difficult to attract institutional investor or market maker support, which in turn negatively impacts the liquidity and price of the Common Stock. The downgrade of the Common Stock to the Pink Sheets Limited Information as of July 1, 2024, has decreased the liquidity and increased the investment risk of the Common Stock. While the Company intends to re-qualify for quotation of its Common Stock on the OTCQB, it may be unable to do so. No assurances can be given of achieving quotation on the OTCQB for the Common Stock. Some, but not all, of the factors which may delay or prevent the listing of our Common Stock on a more widely-traded and liquid market than the Pink Sheets Limited Information, or, if the Company can re-qualify for the OTCQB tier, the OTCQB include the following: our stockholders' equity may be insufficient; the market value of our outstanding securities may be too low; our net income from operations may be too low; our Common Stock may not be sufficiently widely held; we may not be able to secure primary market makers for our Common Stock; and we may fail to meet the rules and requirements mandated by, any of the national securities exchanges to have our Common Stock listed or the standards of NASDAQ for quotation of the Common Stock. Our issued Common Stock is predominantly held by a relatively small number of shareholders. We would have to increase the public float considerably as part of any effort to enhance the liquidity of our Common Stock. The July 1, 2024 downgrade of the Common Stock to Pink Sheets Limited Information makes the qualification for quotation on the OTCQB the only available option for enhancing the liquidity of the public market for the shares of Common Stock and, even if quotation on the OTCQB is achieved, the liquidity of the shares of Common Stock on the OTCQB remain limited by the lack of institutional support for, lack of primary market makers for, absence of security firms coverage of and limited number of public shareholders for the shares of Common Stock. If the Company does not file the Form 10-K and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2024, by July 16, 2024, the OTC Markets Group will further downgrade the Common Stock to Pink Sheets Expert Market, which will end public investor direct trading of the shares of Common Stock and limit trading the share of Common Stock to broker-dealers and certain other sophisticated investor, and consequently, severely limit the liquidity of the shares of Common Stock.

Most of our principal operating subsidiaries' current operations and assets are located in Hong Kong or China. Moreover, six of our nine current directors and all of our executive officers are residents of Hong Kong. All or a substantial portion of the assets of these directors and executive officers are located outside the U.S. Our Chairman, Mr. Chan Heng Fai and Mr. Lim Sheng Hon Danny are residents of Singapore, and director Robert Trapp is a resident of the United States. Our senior officers, Mr. Tan Seng Wee, the Chief Executive Officer and a director, and Mr. Au Cheuk Lun, our Chief Financial Officer, as well as directors Tsang Po Wee, Lee Yuen Fong, Wong Shui Yeung, and Wong Tat Keung are all residents of Hong Kong. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process within the U.S. or elsewhere outside of Hong Kong or China upon these directors and executive officers who reside in Hong Kong or may reside in or claim residence in China. In addition, uncertainty exists as to whether the courts of the Hong Kong or China would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or such officers or directors predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the U.S. or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in Hong Kong or China against us or those directors or executive officers predicated upon the securities laws of the U.S. or any state thereof. Under the Nationality Law of the People's Republic of China ("CNL"), which has been applied in the Hong Kong since 1 July 1997, and pursuant to Article 18 of and Annex III to the Basic Law, Hong Kong residents who are of Chinese descent and were born in the Chinese territories (including Hong Kong), or persons who satisfy the criteria laid down in the CNL as having Chinese nationality, are regarded as Chinese nationals by the Chinese government. The legal and judicial systems in China are still rudimentary and evolving, and enforcement of existing laws is uncertain. As a result, it may be impossible to obtain swift and equitable enforcement of laws that do exist, or to obtain enforcement of the judgment of one court by a court of another jurisdiction. The Chinese legal system is based on the civil law regime, that is, it is based on written statutes. Unlike the U.S. legal system, a decision by one judge in China does not set a legal precedent that is required to be followed by Chinese judges in other cases. In addition, the interpretation of Chinese laws and Chinese court decisions may be varied to reflect domestic political changes or may be dictated or invalidated by the Chinese government. While the Hong Kong court system is based on English common law system (like the United States court system) under the Basic Law, the "constitution" of Hong Kong written when United Kingdom handed control of Hong Kong to China in 1997, and has operated independently from Hong Kong government in the past, the independence of the Hong Kong judiciary has been undermined in the past three years by the Chinese government. Since the Chinese government has imposed national security laws of China in Hong Kong, the PRC National People's Congress Standing Committee ("NPCSC"), which is a central authority of the Chinese government, has held that NPCSC decisions and directives are not reviewable by Hong Kong courts. The Court of Final Appeal, Hong Kong's highest court, ruled in January 2021, that NPCSC decisions have the force of law in Hong Kong and are not subject to judicial review by Hong Kong courts. The former independence and integrity of the common law system of the Hong Kong courts have been compromised by Chinese government influence and direct intervention and investors face the same risks and challenges of obtaining service of process and pursuing and enforcing legal claims against our directors and senior officers who reside in China in the Chinese court system in obtaining service of process and pursuing and enforcing claims against our directors and senior officers who reside in Hong Kong in the Hong Kong court system. The promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws and the pre-emption of local regulations by national laws in China or Hong Kong may further and adversely affect investors seeking to enforce or assert claims against us or our management in Chinese or Hong Kong courts. The Company and its operating subsidiaries have no assets or operations in United States. As a Nevada incorporated corporation, the Company has a registered agent office in the State of Nevada for service of process on the Company, but not for service of process on its officers and directors and not for service on its foreign subsidiaries and their officers and directors.
