OUR COMPANY
Overview
We are an established technology-driven facilities
services provider in the public and private sectors operating mainly in Singapore. Our mission is to support businesses by improving lives
and strengthening communities through our business practices and ethics. We compete primarily in Singapore, with a small portion of our
operations in Malaysia.
Our revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2024 and 2023 were approximately $72,524,000 and $69,026,000, respectively. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we
incurred a net loss of approximately $(3,223,000) and $(2,547,000), respectively.
We provide the following
services:
|
● |
Facilities services. Our facilities services include general cleaning and maintenance of public and private facilities, such as airports, conservancy areas (i.e., the public areas, refuse disposal areas, parks and carparks of public housing units), common areas of hotels, educational institutions, public roads, residential spaces, commercial buildings, office facilities, industrial areas, retail stores and healthcare facilities; housekeeping services; specialized cleaning services, such as marble polishing services; building façade cleaning services and clean room sanitation services; and waste management and pest control services. We derive the majority of our revenue from the provision of facilities services, which accounted for approximately $56.0 million or 77.2% of our revenue in FY 2024 and approximately $55.8 million or 80.8% of our revenue in FY 2023. |
|
● |
Stewarding services. Our stewarding services include the cleaning of kitchen facilities of healthcare facilities, hotels and restaurants and the supply of ad hoc customer service officers and food and beverage (“F&B”) service crew to healthcare facilities, hotels and restaurants. Stewarding services accounted for approximately $10.2 million or 14.0% of our revenue in FY 2024 and approximately $7.6 million or 11.0% of our revenue in FY 2023. |
|
● |
Cleaning services to offices. In addition to our core facilities services, we provide cleaning services to offices. The provision of office cleaning services accounted for approximately $5.9 million or 8.1% of our revenue in FY 2024 and approximately $4.9 million or 7.1% of our revenue in FY 2023. |
|
● |
Cleaning services to homes. We provide cleaning services to homes of individual customers who engage our services through our “HomeHelpy” application. We did not generate significant revenue (i.e., less than 1.0%) from the provision of these services during FY 2024 and FY 2023. |
|
● |
Cleaning Supplies. We also manufacture certain cleaning supplies, both for our own use and for sale to third parties. We did not generate significant revenue (i.e., less than 1.0%) from the sale of cleaning supplies to third parties during FY 2024 and FY 2023. |
Corporate Structure
The structure of our Group as of the date of this
prospectus is as follows:
Implications of Being an “Emerging Growth
Company” and a “Foreign Private Issuer”
Emerging Growth Company
We are an “emerging growth company”
as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, we are eligible, for up
to five years, to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other publicly
traded entities that are not emerging growth companies. These exemptions include:
|
● |
the ability to include only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations disclosure; |
|
● |
exemptions from the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; |
|
● |
to the extent that we no longer qualify as a foreign private issuer, (i) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and (ii) exemptions from the requirement to hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation, including golden parachute compensation. |
We may take advantage of these provisions until
the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the consummation of the IPO or such earlier time that we are no
longer an emerging growth company.
As a result, the information contained in this
prospectus may be different from the information you receive from other public companies in which you hold shares. We do not know if some
investors will find the Shares less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. The result may be a less active trading market
for the Shares, and the price of the Shares may become more volatile.
We will remain an emerging growth company until
the earliest of: (1) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenue exceeds $1.235 billion; (2) the
last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the IPO; (3) the date that we become a “large
accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of the Shares
that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal
quarter; or (4) the date on which we have issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during any three-year
period.
Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides
that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 13(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for complying with new or revised accounting standards.
Given that we currently report and expect to continue to report under U.S. GAAP, we have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves
of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which
adoption of such standards is required by the IASB. Under federal securities laws, our decision to opt out of the extended transition
period is irrevocable.
Foreign Private Issuer
Upon consummation of the IPO, we will report under
the Exchange Act as a non-U.S. company with foreign private issuer status. Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth
company, as long as we qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we will be exempt from certain provisions of the
Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including:
|
● |
the rules under the Exchange Act requiring domestic filers to issue financial statements prepared under U.S. GAAP; |
|
● |
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 stock ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and |
|
● |
the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specific information, or current reports on Form 8-K, upon the occurrence of specified significant events. |
Notwithstanding these exemptions, we will file
with the SEC, within four months after the end of each fiscal year, or such applicable time as required by the SEC, an annual report
on Form 20-F containing financial statements audited by an independent registered public accounting firm.
We may take advantage of these exemptions until
such time as we are no longer a foreign private issuer. We would cease to be a foreign private issuer at such time as more than 50% of
our outstanding voting securities are held by U.S. residents and any of the following three circumstances applies: (i) the majority
of our Executive Officers or members of our Supervisory Board 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.
Both foreign private issuers and emerging growth
companies are also exempt from certain more extensive executive compensation disclosure rules. Thus, even if we no longer qualify as an
emerging growth company, but remain a foreign private issuer, we will continue to be exempt from the more extensive compensation disclosures
required of companies that are neither an emerging growth company nor a foreign private issuer and will continue to be permitted to follow
our home country practice on such matters.
Implications of Being a Controlled Company
We became a “controlled company” as
defined under the Nasdaq Listing Rules because at the time of the completion of the IPO, Sapphire Universe held 82.06% of our total issued
and outstanding Shares and was able to exercise 82.06% of the total voting power of our issued and outstanding share capital. For so long as we remain a “controlled company,” we are permitted to elect not to comply with certain corporate
governance requirements. If we rely on these exemptions, you will not have the same protection afforded to shareholders of companies that
are subject to these corporate governance requirements. See section titled “Risk Factors — Risks Relating
to an Investment in our Shares.”
Even if we cease to be a controlled company, we
may still rely on exemptions available to foreign private issuers.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our securities involves a high degree
of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth under “Risk Factors” described in our most recent annual
report on Form 20-F, filed on July 23, 2024, as supplemented and updated by subsequent current reports on Form 6-K that we have filed
with the SEC, together with all other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any applicable prospectus
supplement and in any related free writing prospectus in connection with a specific offering, before making an investment decision. Each
of the risk factors could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects, as well
as the value of an investment in our securities, and the occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your
investment.
OFFER STATISTICS AND EXPECTED TIMETABLE
We may from time to time, offer and sell any
combination of the securities described in this prospectus up to a total dollar amount of $50,000,000 in one or more offerings.
The securities offered under this prospectus may be offered separately, together, or in separate series, and in amounts, at prices, and
on terms to be determined at the time of sale. We will keep the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part effective until
such time as all of the securities covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with such registration
statement.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Except as described in any prospectus supplement
and any free writing prospectus in connection with a specific offering, we currently intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of
the securities offered under this prospectus for general corporate purposes. We have not determined the amount of net proceeds
to be used specifically for the foregoing purposes. As a result, our management will have broad discretion in the allocation of the net
proceeds and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds of any sale of the
securities. If a material part of the net proceeds is to be used to repay indebtedness, we will set forth the interest rate and maturity
of such indebtedness in a prospectus supplement. Pending use of the net proceeds will be deposited in interest bearing bank accounts.
DILUTION
If required, we will set forth in a prospectus
supplement the following information regarding any material dilution of the equity interests of investors purchasing securities in an
offering under this prospectus:
|
● |
the net tangible book value per share of our equity securities before and after the offering; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the amount of the increase in such net tangible book value per share attributable to the cash payments made by purchasers in the offering; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
the amount of the immediate dilution from the public offering price which will be absorbed by such purchasers. |

under the laws of the Singapore. Our affairs are governed by the provisions of our Constitution, as amended and/or restated from time
to time and the Companies Act, and the applicable laws of the Singapore (including applicable common law).
For the purposes of this section, references to
“Shareholders” mean those Shareholders whose names and number of shares are entered in our register of members. Only persons
who are registered in our register of members are recognized under Singapore law as our Shareholders. As a result, only registered Shareholders
have legal standing under Singapore law to institute shareholder actions against us or otherwise seek to enforce their rights as Shareholders.
Ordinary Shares
Our ordinary shares have no par value as there
is no concept of authorized share capital under Singapore law. All shares presently issued are fully paid and existing Shareholders are
not subject to any calls on shares. Although Singapore law does not recognize the concept of “non-assessability” with respect
to newly-issued shares, we note that any subscriber of our Shares who has fully paid up all amounts due, with respect to such Shares,
will not be subject to Singapore law concerning any personal liability to contribute to our assets or liabilities in such subscriber’s
capacity solely as a holder of such Shares. We believe this interpretation is substantively consistent with the concept of “non-assessability”
under most, if not all, U.S. state corporations laws. We cannot, except in the circumstances permitted by the Companies Act, grant
any financial assistance for the acquisition or proposed acquisition of our own Shares. Except as described in this section “Description
of Share Capital and Constitution — Singapore Code on Take-Overs and Mergers”, there are no limitations in our
Constitution or Singapore law on the rights of Shareholders who are not resident in Singapore to hold or vote in respect of our Shares.
Voting Rights
Each ordinary share is entitled to one vote per
share on all matters upon which the Shares are entitled to vote. Voting at any meeting of Shareholders is by poll. On a poll, each holder
of Shares who is present in person or by proxy or by attorney or other duly authorized representative, has one vote for each ordinary
share which he holds or represents. Proxies need not be Shareholders.
Subject to the Companies Act and our Constitution,
only those Shareholders who are registered in our register of members will be entitled to vote at any meeting of Shareholders in person
or by proxy or by attorney or other duly authorized representative. The Shares offered in this Offering are expected to be held through
DTC or its nominee. Therefore, DTC or its nominee will grant an omnibus proxy to DTC participants holding our Shares in book-entry form.
Persons holding through a broker, bank, nominee or other institution that is a direct or indirect participant of DTC will have the right
to instruct their broker, bank, nominee or other institution holding our Shares on how to vote such Shares by completing the voting instruction
form provided by the applicable broker, bank, nominee, or other institution. On all matters requiring a Shareholder vote, DTC or its nominee
will vote the Shares held by it in accordance with the voting instructions of the DTC participant Shareholders.
Dividends
We may, by ordinary resolution, declare dividends
at a general meeting of our Shareholders, but no dividend shall be payable except out of our profits, and the amount of any such dividend
shall not exceed the amount recommended by our Board of Directors. Subject to our Constitution and in accordance with the Companies Act,
our Board of Directors may, without the approval of our Shareholders, declare and pay interim dividends, but any final dividends the board
declares must be approved by an ordinary resolution at a general meeting of our Shareholders. See section titled “Dividend Policy”
for additional information about our dividend policy.
Capitalization and Other Rights
Our Board of Directors may, with the approval
of our Shareholders at a general meeting, capitalize any reserves or profits and distribute them as shares, credited as paid-up, to our
Shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings in accordance with our Constitution.
Variation of Rights
Subject to the Companies Act and every other Singapore
statute for the time being in force affecting us, under our Constitution, whenever our share capital is divided into different classes
of shares, the special rights attached to any class may be varied or abrogated either with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters
of the issued shares of the class or with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of
the shares of the class (but not otherwise) and may be so varied or abrogated either while the Company is a going concern or during or
in contemplation of a winding-up. To every such separate general meeting, the necessary quorum shall be two persons (unless all the shares
of the class are held by one person whereupon the necessary quorum shall be one person) at least holding or representing by proxy or by
attorney or other duly authorized representative one-third of issued shares of the class and that any holder of shares of the class present
in person or by proxy or by attorney or other duly authorized representative may demand a poll, and on a poll, shall have one vote for
every share of the class held by him, provided always that where the necessary majority for such a special resolution is not obtained
at such general meeting, consent in writing if obtained from the holders of three-quarters of the issued shares of the class concerned
within two months of such general meeting shall be as valid and effectual as a special resolution carried at such general meeting.
Issuance of New Shares
Under the Companies Act, new shares may be issued
only with the prior approval of our Shareholders in a general meeting. General approval may be sought from our Shareholders in a general
meeting for the issuance of shares. Such approval, if granted, will lapse at the earlier of:
|
● |
the conclusion of the next annual general meeting; or |
|
● |
the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting is required by law to be held (i.e., within six months after the end of each fiscal year); |
however, any approval may be revoked or varied
by the Company in a general meeting.
Subject to this and the provisions of the Companies
Act and our Constitution, our Board of Directors may allot, issue or grant options over or otherwise dispose of new Shares to such persons
on such terms and conditions and at such time as the Company in the general meeting may approve and for such consideration (if any) and
subject or not to the payment of any part of the amount (if any) thereof in cash as our Board of Directors may think fit. Such rights
are subject to any condition attached to such issue and the regulations of any stock exchange on which our Shares are listed, as well
as U.S. federal and blue sky securities laws applicable to such issue.
Register of Members
Only persons who are registered in our register
of members are recognized under Singapore law as our Shareholders with legal standing under Singapore law to institute shareholder actions
against us or otherwise seek to enforce their rights as Shareholders. We will not, except as required by applicable law, recognize any
equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any ordinary share, or any interest in any fractional part of an ordinary share,
or other rights for any ordinary share other than the absolute right thereto of the registered holder of that ordinary share. We may close
our register of members for any time or times, provided that our register of members may not be closed for more than 30 days in aggregate
in any calendar year. We typically will close our register of members to determine Shareholders’ entitlement to receive dividends
and other distributions.
Our Shares, which are expected to be listed and
traded on NASDAQ, are expected to be held through DTC. Accordingly, DTC or its nominee, Cede & Co., will be the Shareholder
on record registered in our register of members.
A holder of Shares held in book-entry interests
through DTC or its nominee may become a registered Shareholder by exchanging its interest in such Shares for certificated Shares and being
registered in our register of members in respect of such shares. The procedures by which a holder of book-entry interests held through
the facilities of the DTC may exchange such interests for certificated Shares are determined by DTC and our transfer agent, in accordance
with their internal policies and guidelines regulating the withdrawal and exchange of book-entry interests for certificated Shares. Our
transfer agent is Vstock Transfer, LLC.
Under the Companies Act, if (a) the name of any
person is without sufficient cause entered in or omitted from the register of members; or (b) default is made or unnecessary delay takes
place in entering in the register of members the fact of any person having ceased to be a member, the person aggrieved or any member or
the public company itself, may apply to the Singapore courts for rectification of the register of members. The Singapore courts may refuse
the application or may order rectification of the register of members and payment by the public company of any damages sustained by any
party to the application. The Singapore courts will not entertain any application for the rectification of a register of members in respect
of an entry which was made in the register of members more than 30 years before the date of the application.
Singapore Code on Take-Overs and Mergers
The Singapore Code on Take-Overs and Mergers (the
“Singapore Take-over Code”) regulates, among other things, the acquisition of voting shares of Singapore-incorporated public
companies. In this regard, the Singapore Take-over Code applies to, among others, corporations with a primary listing of their equity
securities in Singapore. While the Singapore Take-over Code is drafted with, among others, listed public companies in mind, unlisted public
companies with more than 50 shareholders and net tangible assets of assets of $3.75million (S$5.0 million) or more, must also observe
the letter and spirit of the general principles and rules of the Singapore Take-over Code, wherever this is possible and appropriate.
Public companies with a primary listing overseas may apply to Securities Industry Council (“SIC”) to waive the application
of the Singapore Take-over Code. As of the date of this prospectus, no application has been made to SIC to waive the application of the
Singapore Take-over Code in relation to us. We may submit an application to SIC for a waiver from the Singapore Take-over Code so
that the Singapore Take-over Code will not apply to us for so long as we are not listed on a securities exchange in Singapore. We will
make an appropriate announcement if we submit the application and when the result of the application is known.
Any person acquiring an interest, whether by a
series of transactions over a period of time or not, shares which either on his or her own or together with parties acting in concert
with such person, carry 30% or more of the voting rights in the Company or any person holding, either on his or her own or together with
parties acting in concert with such person, holds not less than 30% but not more than 50% of the voting rights in the Company, and if
such person (or any party acting in concert with such person) acquires additional voting shares representing more than 1% of the voting
rights in the Company in any six-month period, must, except with the consent of SIC, extend a mandatory take-over offer for all the remaining
voting shares in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Take-over Code. Responsibility for ensuring compliance with the Singapore
Take-over Code rests with parties (including Company directors) to a take-over or merger and their advisors.
Under the Singapore Take-over Code, “parties
acting in concert” comprise individuals or companies who, pursuant to an agreement or understanding (whether formal or informal),
cooperate, through the acquisition by any of them of shares in a company, to obtain or consolidate effective control of that company.
Certain persons are presumed (unless the presumption is rebutted) to be acting in concert with each other. They are as follows:
|
● |
a company, its parent company, its subsidiaries and fellow subsidiaries (together, the related companies), the associated companies of any of the company and its related companies, companies whose associated companies include any of these foregoing companies and any person who has provided financial assistance (other than a bank in the ordinary course of business) to any of the foregoing for the purchase of voting rights; |
|
● |
a company with any of its directors (together with their close relatives, related trusts and companies controlled by any of the directors, their close relatives and related trusts); |
|
● |
a company with any of its pension funds and employee share schemes; |
|
● |
a person with any investment company, unit trust or other fund whose investment such person manages on a discretionary basis but only in respect of the investment account which such person manages; |
|
● |
a financial or other professional adviser, including a stockbroker, with its client in respect of the shareholdings of the adviser and persons controlling, controlled by or under the same control as the adviser; |
|
● |
directors of a company (including their close relatives, related trusts and companies controlled by any of such directors, their close relatives and related trusts) which is subject to an offer or where the directors have reason to believe a bona fide offer for the company may be imminent; |
|
● |
an individual and (i) such person’s close relatives, (ii) such person’s related trusts, (iii) any person who is accustomed to act in accordance with such person’s instructions, (iv) companies controlled by the individual, such person’s close relatives, such person’s related trusts or any person who is accustomed to act in accordance with such person’s instructions and (v) any person who has provided financial assistance (other than a bank in the ordinary course of business) to any of the foregoing for the purchase of voting rights. |
Subject to certain exceptions, a mandatory offer
must be in cash or be accompanied by a cash alternative at not less than the highest price paid by the offeror or parties acting in concert
with the offeror for voting rights in the offeree company during the offer period and within the six months prior to its commencement.
Under the Singapore Take-over Code, where effective
control of a company is acquired or consolidated by a person, or persons acting in concert, a general offer to all other shareholders
is normally required. An offeror must treat all shareholders of the same class in an offeree company equally. A fundamental requirement
is that shareholders in the company subject to the take-over offer must be given sufficient information, advice and time to enable them
to reach an informed decision on the offer. These legal requirements may impede or delay a takeover of our Company by a third-party.
Election and Re-election of Directors
Our Directors are appointed by our Shareholders
at a general meeting, and an election of Directors takes place annually. One third (or the number nearest to but not less than one third)
of our Directors, are required to retire from office at each annual general meeting. Further, all our Directors are required to retire
from office at least once in every three years. However, a retiring director is eligible for re-election at the meeting at which
he retires.
We may, by ordinary resolution, remove any director
before the expiration of his or her period of office, notwithstanding anything in our Constitution or in any agreement between us. We
may also, by an ordinary resolution, appoint another person in place of a director removed from office pursuant to the foregoing.
Our Constitution provides that our Board of Directors
shall have the power, at any time, to appoint any person to be a director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an additional director
but any person so appointed by the directors shall hold office only until the next annual general meeting and shall then be eligible for
re-election.
General Meetings of Shareholders
Subject to the Companies Act, we are required
to hold an annual general meeting of Shareholders within six months from the end of our fiscal year. The directors may convene an
extraordinary general meeting whenever they think fit and they must do so upon the requisition of Shareholders holding not less than 10%
of the total number of paid-up shares as of the date of deposit of the requisition carrying the right to vote at a general meeting (disregarding
paid-up shares held as treasury shares). In addition, two or more Shareholders holding not less than 10% of our total number of issued
shares (excluding treasury shares) may call a meeting of our Shareholders.
The Companies Act provides that a shareholder
is entitled to attend any general meeting and speak on any resolution put before the general meeting. Unless otherwise required by law
or by our Constitution, voting on resolutions put forth at general meetings is by ordinary resolution, requiring the affirmative vote
of a simple majority of the voting rights of the Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to
vote on the resolution. An ordinary resolution suffices, for example, for the appointment of directors. A special resolution, requiring
the affirmative vote of not less than three-fourths of the voting rights of the Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy
at the meeting and entitled to vote on the resolution, is necessary for certain matters under Singapore law, including voluntary winding-up,
amendments to our Constitution, a change of our corporate name and a reduction in the share capital.
We must give at least 21 days’ notice
in writing for every general meeting convened for the purpose of passing special resolutions. General meetings convened for the purpose
of passing ordinary resolutions generally require at least 14 days’ notice in writing.
Minority Rights
The rights of minority shareholders of Singapore
companies are protected under Section 216 of the Companies Act, which gives the Singapore courts a general power to make any order,
upon application by any shareholder of a company, as they think fit to remedy any of the following situations:
|
● |
the affairs of a company are being conducted or the powers of the board of directors are being exercised in a manner oppressive to, or in disregard of the interests of, one or more of its shareholders, including the applicant; or |
|
● |
a company takes an action, or threatens to take an action, or its shareholders pass a resolution, or propose to pass a resolution, which unfairly discriminates against, or is otherwise prejudicial to, one or more of the shareholders, including the applicant. |
Singapore courts have a wide discretion as to
the remedies they may grant and the remedies listed in the Companies Act itself are not exclusive. In general, the Singapore courts may:
|
● |
direct or prohibit any act or cancel or modify any transaction or resolution; |
|
● |
regulate the conduct of the affairs of the company in the future; |
|
● |
authorize civil proceedings to be brought in the name of, or on behalf of, the company by a person or persons and on such terms as the court may direct; |
|
● |
provide for the purchase of shares or debentures of the Company by the other shareholders or holders of debentures or by the company and, in the case of a purchase of shares by the company, a corresponding reduction of its share capital; or |
|
● |
provide that the company be wound up. |
In addition, Section 216A of the Companies
Act allows a complainant (including a minority shareholder) to apply to the Singapore courts for leave to bring an action in a court proceeding
or arbitration in the name and on behalf of the company or intervene in an action in a court proceeding or arbitration to which a company
is a party for the purpose of prosecuting, defending or discontinuing the action or arbitration on behalf of a company.
Liquidation or Other Return of Capital
On a winding-up or other return of capital, subject
to any special rights attaching to any other class of shares, holders of Shares will be entitled to participate in any surplus assets
in proportion to their shareholdings.
Limitation of Liability of Directors and Officers
Under Section 172 of the Companies Act, any
provision exempting or indemnifying the officers of a company (including directors) against any liability that would otherwise attach
to them in connection with any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust in relation to the company is void. However, a company
is not prohibited from: (a) as provided in Section 172A of the Companies Act, purchasing and maintaining for any such individual
insurance against liability incurred by him or her in connection with any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust in relation
to the company; or (b) as provided in Section 172B of the Companies Act, indemnifying the individual against liability incurred
by him or her to a person other than the company except when the indemnity is against any liability (i) of the individual to pay
a fine in criminal proceedings, (ii) of the individual to pay a penalty to a regulatory authority in respect of non-compliance with
any requirements of a regulatory nature (howsoever arising), (iii) incurred by the individual in defending criminal proceedings in
which he or she is convicted, (iv) incurred by the individual in defending civil proceedings brought by the company or a related
company in which judgment is given against him or her, or (v) incurred by the individual in connection with an application for relief
under Section 76A(13) or Section 391 of the Companies Act in which the court refuses to grant him or her relief.
Our Constitution provides that, subject to the
provisions of the Companies Act and every other Singapore statute for the time being in force and affecting our Company, every director,
auditor, secretary or other officer of the Company shall be entitled to be indemnified by us against all costs, charges, losses, expenses
and liabilities incurred or to be incurred by them in the execution and discharge of their duties or in relation thereto.
In addition, and without prejudice to the generality
of the foregoing, no director, secretary or other officer of the Company shall be liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults
of any other director or officer, or for joining in any receipt or other act for conformity, or for any loss or expense happening to the
Company through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by order of the directors for or on behalf of us or
for the insufficiency or deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the moneys of the Company shall be invested or for any loss
or damage arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person with whom any moneys, securities or effects shall be deposited
or left or for any other loss, damage or misfortune whatsoever which shall happen in the execution of duties of his or her office or in
relation thereto unless the same shall happen through his or her own negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust.
We have entered into indemnification agreements
with each of our Directors and Executive Officers. These agreements will require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent
permitted under Singapore law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as
a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified (on terms that the full amount of such advances is to be
repaid if the individual is convicted in the relevant proceeding (with such conviction being final), final judgment is given against the
individual in the relevant proceeding or, as the case may be, the court refuses to grant the individual relief on the application (with
such refusal of relief being final)), save that the Company shall not provide any indemnity (to any extent) to a director or an officer
against any liability attaching to him in connection with any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust in relation to the
Company save for the circumstances as permitted pursuant to Section 172A and Section 172B of the Companies Act. These indemnification
rights shall not be exclusive of any other right which an indemnified person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision
of our Constitution, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
We currently maintain standard policies of
insurance that generally provide coverage (1) to our Directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of
breach of duty or other wrongful act and (2) to us with respect to indemnification payments that we may make to such Directors
and officers.
Registrar and Transfer Agent
The registrar and transfer
agent for our Ordinary Shares is Vstock Transfer, LLC.
Listing
Our Ordinary Shares are
listed on the NASDAQ under the symbol “PMEC.”
DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS
We may issue warrants to purchase our equity securities
or securities of third parties or other rights, including rights to receive payment in cash or securities based on the value, rate or
price of one or more specified commodities, currencies, securities or indices, or any combination of the foregoing. Warrants may be issued
independently or together with any other securities and may be attached to, or separate from, such securities. Each series of warrants
will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a warrant agent. The terms of any warrants to be issued
and a description of the material provisions of the applicable warrant agreement will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.
We urge you to read the applicable prospectus
supplements and any related free writing prospectuses related to the warrants that we may offer under this prospectus, as well as the
complete warrant agreements and warrant certificates that contain the terms of the warrants.
DESCRIPTION OF RIGHTS
We may issue rights to purchase our securities.
The rights may or may not be transferable by the persons purchasing or receiving the rights. In connection with any rights offering, we
may enter into a standby underwriting or other arrangement with one or more underwriters or other persons pursuant to which such underwriters
or other persons would purchase any offered securities remaining unsubscribed for after such rights offering. Each series of rights will
be issued under a separate rights agent agreement to be entered into between us and one or more banks, trust companies or other financial
institutions, as rights agent, that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement. The rights agent will act solely as our agent
in connection with the rights and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders of rights
certificates or beneficial owners of rights.
The prospectus supplement relating to any rights
that we offer will include specific terms relating to the offering, including, among other matters:
|
● |
the date of determining the security holders entitled to the rights distribution; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the aggregate number of rights issued and the aggregate amount of securities purchasable upon exercise of the rights; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the exercise price; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the conditions to completion of the rights offering; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the date on which the right to exercise the rights will commence and the date on which the rights will expire; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
any applicable federal income tax considerations. |
Each right would entitle the holder of the rights
to purchase for cash the principal amount of securities at the exercise price set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Rights
may be exercised at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date for the rights provided in the applicable prospectus supplement.
After the close of business on the expiration date, all unexercised rights will become void.
If less than all of the rights issued in any rights
offering are exercised, we may offer any unsubscribed securities directly to persons other than our security holders, to or through agents,
underwriters or dealers or through a combination of such methods, including pursuant to standby arrangements, as described in the applicable
prospectus supplement.
DESCRIPTION OF UNITS
We may issue units consisting of any combination
of the other types of securities offered under this prospectus in one or more series. We may evidence each series of units by unit certificates
that we will issue under a separate agreement. We may enter into unit agreements with a unit agent. Each unit agent will be a bank or
trust company that we select. We will indicate the name and address of the unit agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating
to a particular series of units.
We urge you to read the applicable prospectus
supplement and any related free writing prospectus, as well as the complete unit certificate that contains the terms of the units.

Sale Through Underwriters or Dealers
Only underwriters named in the prospectus supplement
are underwriters of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement. If underwriters are used in the sale, the underwriters will acquire
the securities for their own account, including through underwriting, purchase, security lending or repurchase agreements with us. The
underwriters may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions. Underwriters
may sell the securities in order to facilitate transactions in any of our other securities (described in this prospectus or otherwise),
including other public or private transactions and short sales. Underwriters may offer securities to the public either through underwriting
syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless otherwise
indicated in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions,
and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the offered securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may change
from time to time any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers.
If dealers are used in the sale of securities
offered through this prospectus, we will sell the securities to them as principals. They may then resell those securities to the public
at varying prices determined by the dealers at the time of resale. The prospectus supplement will include the names of the dealers and
the terms of the transaction.
We will provide in the applicable prospectus supplement
any compensation we will pay to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering of the securities, and any discounts,
concessions or commissions allowed by underwriters to participating dealers.
Direct Sales and Sales Through Agents
We may sell the securities offered through this
prospectus directly. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. Such securities may also be sold through agents designated
from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the offered securities and will describe
any commissions payable to the agent. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable
best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment.
We may sell the securities directly to institutional
investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any sale of those securities.
The terms of any such sales will be described in the prospectus supplement.
Delayed Delivery Contracts
If the prospectus supplement indicates, we may
authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase securities at the public offering
price under delayed delivery contracts. These contracts would provide for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The
contracts would be subject only to those conditions described in the prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement will
describe the commission payable for solicitation of those contracts.
Market Making, Stabilization and Other Transactions
Unless the applicable prospectus supplement states
otherwise, other than our Shares, all securities we offer under this prospectus will be a new issue and will have no established trading
market. We may elect to list offered securities on an exchange or in the over-the-counter market. Any underwriters that we use in the
sale of offered securities may make a market in such securities, but may discontinue such market making at any time without notice. Therefore,
we cannot assure you that the securities will have a liquid trading market.
Any underwriter may also engage in stabilizing
transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Rule 104 under the Securities Exchange Act. Stabilizing
transactions involve bids to purchase the underlying security in the open market for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the
price of the securities. Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution
has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions.
Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim
a selling concession from a syndicate member when the securities originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate
covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may
cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be in the absence of the transactions. The underwriters may, if they commence
these transactions, discontinue them at any time.
General Information
Agents, underwriters, and dealers may be entitled,
under agreements entered into with us, to indemnification by us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities
Act. Our agents, underwriters, and dealers, or their affiliates, may be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services
for us, in the ordinary course of business.

the ordinary shares, warrants, rights and units offered by this prospectus will be passed upon by JurisAsia LLC. Certain federal securities
law matters will be passed upon for us by Loeb & Loeb LLP, New York.

PART II
Information Not Required in Prospectus
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Our Constitution provides
that, subject to applicable laws, every Director, auditor, secretary or other officer of the Company shall be entitled to be indemnified
by the Company against all costs, charges, losses, expenses and liabilities incurred or to be incurred by him/her in the execution and
discharge of his/her duties or in relation thereto. In particular, and without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, no Director,
secretary or other officer of the Company shall be liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other Director or officer
or for joining in any receipt or other act for conformity or for any loss or expense happening to the Company through the insufficiency
or deficiency of title to any property acquired by order of the Directors for or on behalf of the Company or for the insufficiency or
deficiency of any security in or upon which any of the moneys of the Company shall be invested or for any loss or damage arising from
the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortious act of any person with whom any moneys, securities or effects shall be deposited or left or for
any other loss, damage or misfortune whatsoever which shall happen in the execution of the duties of his/her office or in relation thereto
unless the same shall happen through his/her own negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust.
Section 172
of the Companies Act provides that any provision (i) that purports to exempt an officer (including a Director) of a company (to any
extent) from, or (ii) by which a company directly or indirectly provides an indemnity (to any extent) for an officer of a company
against, any liability that would otherwise attach to him/her in connection with any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of
trust in relation to the company is void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a company may:
| ● | purchase and maintain for an officer of the company insurance
against any liability attaching to him/her in connection with any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust in relation
to the company; and |
|
● |
directly or indirectly provide an indemnity (to any extent) for an officer of the company against liability incurred by the officer to a person other than the company, except when the indemnity is against (a) any liability of the officer (i) to pay a fine in criminal proceedings; or (ii) a sum payable to a regulatory authority by way of a penalty in respect of non-compliance with any requirement of a regulatory nature; or (b) any liability incurred by the officer (i) in defending criminal proceedings in which he/she is convicted; (ii) in defending civil proceedings brought by the company or a related company in which judgment is given against him/her; or (iii) in connection with an application for relief under section 76A(13) or 391 of the Companies Act in which the court refuses to grant him/her relief. |
Item 8. Exhibits
See Exhibit Index beginning on page II-4 of this
registration statement.
Item 9. Undertakings.
|
(a) |
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: |
|
(1) |
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
|
(i) |
To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this item do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement. |
|
(2) |
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post- effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
|
|
|
|
(3) |
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
|
|
|
|
(4) |
To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act need not be furnished, provided that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or Item 8.A of Form 20-F if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement. |
|
(5) |
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser: |
|
(i) |
Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and |
|
(ii) |
Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date. |
|
(6) |
That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: |
The undersigned registrant undertakes
that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting
method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following
communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to
such purchaser:
|
(i) |
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and |
|
|
|
|
(iv) |
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser. |
|
(b) |
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
|
|
|
|
(c) |
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |

| (n) | (i) that the information disclosed by the electronic searches
made on 29 November 2024 (the “ACRA Searches”) of the

| (a) | the Company is incorporated and exists as a public company
limited by shares under the Companies Act 1967 of Singapore; |
| (b) | with respect to the Ordinary Shares, when: (i) the board
of directors of the Company has taken all necessary corporate action to approve the issue thereof, the terms of the offering thereof
and related matters; (ii) the issue of such Ordinary Shares have been recorded in the Company’s register of members; and (c) the subscription
price of such Ordinary Shares have been fully paid in cash or other consideration approved by the board of directors of the Company,

the terms of the offering thereof and related matters; (ii) if applicable, a Warrant Agreement relating to the Warrants shall have been
duly authorised and validly executed and delivered by the Company and the financial institution designated as warrant agent thereunder;
and (iii) the Warrant Certificates have been duly executed, countersigned, registered and delivered in accordance with the Warrant Agreement,
if applicable, relating to the Warrants and the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement approved by the board
of directors of the Company upon payment of the consideration therefor provided therein, the Warrants will be duly authorised, legal and binding
obligations of the Company; |
| (d) | with respect to the Rights, when: (i) the board of directors
of the Company has taken all necessary corporate action to approve the creation and terms of the Rights and to approve the issue thereof,
the terms of the offering thereof and related matters; (ii) a Rights Agreement relating to the Rights shall have been duly authorised
and validly executed and delivered by the Company and the financial institution designated as rights agent thereunder; and (iii) the
Rights Certificates have been duly executed, countersigned, registered and delivered in accordance with the Rights Agreement relating
to the Rights and the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement approved by the board of directors of the Company
upon payment of the consideration therefor provided therein, the Rights will be duly authorised, legal and binding obligations of the
Company; and |
| (e) | with respect to the Units, when: (i) the board of directors
of the Company has taken all necessary corporate action to approve the creation and terms of the Units and to approve the issue thereof,
the terms of the offering thereof and related matters; (ii) a Unit Agreement relating to the Units shall have been duly authorised and
validly executed and delivered by the Company and the financial institution designated as unit agent thereunder; and (iii) the Units

| 7. | For the purposes of this opinion, we have assumed that the term
“non-assessable” in relation to the Securities offered means under the laws of the Republic of Singapore that holders of such
Ordinary Shares, having fully paid up all amounts due on such Ordinary Shares as to the issue price thereon, are under no further personal
liability to contribute to the assets or liabilities of the Company in their capacities purely as holders of such Ordinary Shares. |
| 8. | This opinion relates only to the laws of general application
of the Republic of Singapore as published at the date hereof and as currently applied by the courts of the Republic of Singapore, and
is given on the basis that it will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Singapore. We have made
no investigation of, and do not express or imply any views on, the laws of any country other than the Republic of Singapore. In respect
of the Registration Statement, we have assumed due compliance with all matters concerning the laws of all other jurisdictions other than
the Republic of Singapore. |
| 9. | We hold ourselves out as only having legal expertise and our
statements in this letter are made only to the extent that a law firm practising Singapore law in the Republic of Singapore, having our
role in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement, would reasonably be expected to have become aware of relevant facts
and/or to have identified the implications of those facts. |
| 10. | Our opinion is strictly limited to the matters stated herein
and is not to be read as extending by implication to any other matter in connection with the registration of the Registration Statement
or otherwise including, but without limitation, any other document signed in connection with the same. Subject to the foregoing, we consent
to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and further consent to all references to us, if any, in the Registration
Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto. In giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we are within the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder. Further,
save for the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, this opinion is not to be circulated to, or relied upon
by, any other person (other than persons entitled to rely on it pursuant to applicable federal securities laws in the United States,
if applicable) or quoted or referred to in any public document or filed with any governmental body or agency without our prior written consent. |
| 11. | This opinion is given on the basis of the laws of the Republic
of Singapore in force as at the date of this opinion and we undertake no responsibility to notify you of any change in the laws of the
Republic of Singapore after the date of this opinion. |
