Risk Factors · p. 47

During the Track Record Period, we engaged a third-party human resources agency to assist with the payment of social insurance and housing provident fund contributions for three employees in Shenzhen and three employees in Xi'an, instead of making such contributions directly. As a result, we recorded a shortfall in certain social insurance and housing provident fund contributions.

Furthermore, on March 13, 2026, we established a Xi'an subsidiary to facilitate compliant local payment of social insurance contributions for the relevant employees in Xi'an, and we expect to complete the rectification of the remaining non-compliance in Shenzhen and fully rectify the above non-compliance by September 30, 2026.
