Vestiage, Inc.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

 However, we have included several risk factors that are important to our business.

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully read and consider all of the risks described below, together with all of the other information contained or referred to in this report, before making an investment decision with respect to our common stock. If any of the following events occur, our financial condition, business and results of operations (including cash flows) may be materially adversely affected. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Relating to our Business

We have incurred operating losses, and have no current source of revenue

We do not expect to generate revenues until we further our business model. We can provide no assurance that we will produce any material revenues for our stockholders, or that our contemplated business will operate on a profitable basis. We have generated no revenue for the last two fiscal years that are reported in this statement.

We will, likely, sustain operating expenses without corresponding revenues, at least until we complete acquisitions and have operational success. This may result in our incurring a net operating loss that will increase until we generate revenue. We cannot assure you that any such business will be profitable at the time.

Our capital resources may not be sufficient to meet our capital requirements, and in the absence of additional resources we may have to curtail or cease business operations

We have historically generated negative cash flow and losses from operations and could experience negative cash flow and losses from operations in the future. Our independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their report on our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024 expressing doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. We currently only have a minimal amount of cash available, which will not be sufficient to fund our anticipated future operating needs. The Company will need to raise substantial sums to implement its business plan. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising funds. To the extent that the Company is unable to raise funds, we will be required to reduce our planned operations or cease any operations.

Our future success is highly dependent on the ability of management to locate and attract suitable business opportunities and our stockholders will not know what business we will enter into until we consummate a transaction with the approval of our then existing directors and officers

At this time, we have a small operation focused on identifying a viable business acquisition targets and continued implementation of our business model is highly speculative, there is a consequent risk of loss of an investment in the Company. The success of our operations will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of future business and internal development. While management intends to seek businesses opportunities with entities having established operating histories in additional to our marketing efforts, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be successful in locating opportunities meeting that criterion. The success of our operations will be dependent upon management, its financial position and numerous other factors beyond our control.

We will incur increased costs as a result of becoming a reporting company, and given our limited capital resources, such additional costs may have an adverse impact on our profitability.

Following the effectiveness of our Form 10, we became an SEC reporting company. The Company is currently a small business and has limited revenue. However, the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act require a public company to provide periodic reports with interactive data files which will require the Company to engage legal, accounting and auditing services, and XBRL and EDGAR service providers. The engagement of such services can be costly, and the Company is likely to incur losses, which may adversely affect the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as a variety of related rules implemented by the SEC, have required changes in corporate governance practices and generally increased the disclosure requirements of public companies. For example, as a result of becoming a reporting company, we will be required to file periodic and current reports and other information with the SEC and we must adopt policies regarding disclosure controls and procedures and regularly evaluate those controls and process.

The additional costs will continue to stretch our limited capital resources. The expenses incurred for filing periodic reports and implementing disclosure controls and procedures may be as high as $50,000 USD annually. In other words, due to our limited resources, we may have to allocate resources away from other productive uses in order to pay any expenses we incur in order to comply with our obligations as an SEC reporting company. Further, there is no guarantee that we will have sufficient resources to meet our reporting and filing obligations with the SEC as they come due.

The time and cost of associated with identifying and entering into an acquisition or merger with an attractive target company may be high and have an adverse impact on our ability to succeed.

The Company has been actively seeking target acquisitions and from time to time we may come across target merger companies. These companies may fail to comply with SEC reporting requirements may delay or preclude acquisitions. Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act require reporting companies to provide certain information about significant acquisitions, including certified financial statements for the company acquired, covering one or two years, depending on the relative size of the acquisition. The time and additional costs that may be incurred by some target entities to prepare these statements may significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an acquisition. Otherwise, suitable acquisition prospects that do not have or are unable to obtain the required audited statements may be inappropriate for acquisition so long as the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act are applicable.

A Business merger may result in a change of control and a change of management.

In conjunction with a business acquisition, it is anticipated that we may issue an amount of our authorized but unissued common or preferred stock which represents the majority of the voting power and equity of our capital stock, which would result in stockholders of a target company obtaining a controlling interest in us. As a condition of the business combination agreement, our current stockholders may agree to sell or transfer all or a portion of our common stock as to provide the target company with all or majority control. The resulting change in control may result in removal of our present officers and directors and a corresponding reduction in or elimination of their participation in any future affairs.

We depend on our officers and the loss of their services would have an adverse effect on our business

We have for many years had only one officer and director of the Company. At the end of 2025/beginning of 2026, we identified two new directors, one of whom has been appointed as our Chief Financial Officer. The identification of qualified personnel and board members are critical to our chances for business success. We are dependent on the services of our chief executive officer and chief financial to operate our business and the loss of these persons would have an adverse impact on our future operations until such time as they could be replaced. We do not have employment contracts or employment agreements with our officers, and we do not carry key man life insurance on our officers.

Risks Related to our Stock

There is presently a limited public market for our securities

Our common stock is quoted on the over-the-counter market on an unsolicited basis only, and an active market may never develop. Future sales of our common stock by existing stockholders pursuant to an effective registration statement or upon the availability of Rule 144 could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. A shareholder who decides to sell some, or all, of their shares in a private transaction may be unable to locate persons who are willing to purchase the shares, given the restrictions. Also, because of the various risk factors described above, the price of the publicly traded common stock may be highly volatile and not provide the true market price of our common stock.

Our stock is not eligible for proprietary broker-dealer quotations. All quotes in our stock reflect unsolicited customer orders, meaning that the transaction must be initiated by the customer without any solicitation or recommendation from the broker-dealer. Unsolicited-Only stocks have a higher risk of wider spreads, increased volatility, and price dislocations. Investors may have difficulty selling our stock as a result. In order to trade, an initial review by a broker-dealer under SEC Rule15c2-11 is required for brokers to publish competing quotes and provide continuous market making for our stock on OTC Markets.

As a result of this limitation:

There can be no assurance that an active trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. Even if we become compliant with the information requirements of Rule 15c2-11 in the future, broker-dealers may elect not to publish quotations or resume market-making activities in our securities.

Accordingly, an investment in our common stock is highly illiquid and involves a high degree of risk, and investors may lose all or a substantial portion of their investment.

Our officers, directors and principal stockholders own a large percentage of our stock and other stockholders have little or no ability to elect directors or influence corporate matters

As of December 31, 2025, our officers, directors, and principal stockholders were deemed to be the beneficial owners of approximately 83% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock and 100% of the Convertible Series D Preferred Stock.

Our majority stockholder is controlled by Raymond Fu, our Chief Executive Officer and director, who holds 300,000 (100%) shares of the Convertible Series D Preferred Stock. The aggregate outstanding Convertible Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into approximately 600,000 shares of common stock. In addition, the Convertible Series D Preferred Stock has voting privileges of 1,000 votes for each share held. These shares have not been converted to common stock.

As a result, our CEO and the holder of the Convertible Series D Preferred Stock, via voting rights, can determine the outcome of any actions taken by us that require stockholder approval. For example, they will be able to elect all our directors, control the policies and practices of the Company and control the outcome of any proposed business combination.

We may issue more shares in an acquisition or merger, which will result in substantial dilution

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorize the Company to issue an aggregate of 500,000,000 shares of common stock of which 454,365 shares are currently outstanding and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock are authorized, of which 10,000,000 shares of Convertible Series D Preferred Stock are authorized and 300,000 are outstanding.

Any acquisition or merger effected by the Company may result in the issuance of additional securities without stockholder approval and may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing stockholders. If our convertible preferred stockholders choose to convert their stocks to common stocks, the stocks they receive are newly issued. This increases the total number of common shares. Because the number of common shares increases while the value of the company remains the same, the value of existing shares goes down. In other words, the new common shares dilute the value of all the common shares, which drives down the share price, give current shareholders fewer voting rights and less ownership of the company.

Moreover, shares of our common stock issued in any such merger or acquisition transaction may be valued on an arbitrary or non-arms-length basis by our management, resulting in an additional reduction in the percentage of common stock held by our then existing stockholders. In an acquisition type transaction, our Board of Directors has the power to issue any, or all, of such authorized but unissued shares without stockholder approval. To the extent that additional shares of common stock are issued in connection with a business combination or otherwise, dilution to the interests of our stockholders will occur and the rights of the holders of common stock might be materially adversely affected.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to continue to retain all of our future net earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, the terms of any future debt agreements may preclude us from paying dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock will be your sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China

Presently, our operations in China and in general are limited, however, we may pursue acquisition targets who operate in China or Hong Kong. As a result, the Company may also be subject to increased US and China governmental regulations following a transaction however, it is not possible at this time to predict the nature or magnitude of such increased regulation, if any.

Because all of the Companys current limited operations are in China, the Companys business is subject to the complex and rapidly evolving laws and regulations there. The Chinese government may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of the Companys business and may intervene in or influence the Companys operations at any time, which could result in a material change in the Companys operations and/or the value of the common stock.

As a business operating in China, the Company is subject to the laws and regulations of the PRC, which can be complex and evolve rapidly. The PRC government has the power to exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of the Companys business, and the regulations to which we are subject may change rapidly and with little notice to us or the Companys shareholders. As a result, the application, interpretation, and enforcement of new and existing laws and regulations in the PRC are often uncertain. In addition, these laws and regulations may be interpreted and applied inconsistently by different agencies or authorities. New laws, regulations, and other government directives in the PRC may also be costly to comply with, and such compliance or any associated inquiries or investigations or any other government actions may:

The promulgation of new laws or regulations, or the new interpretation of existing laws and regulations, in each case that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact the ability or manner in which we conduct our business and could require us to change certain aspects of our business to ensure compliance, which could decrease demand for our products, reduce revenues, increase costs, require us to obtain more licenses, permits, approvals or certificates, or subject us to additional liabilities. To the extent any new or more stringent measures are required to be implemented, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected as well as materially decrease the value of the common stock.

Changes in Chinese political policies and economic and social policies or conditions may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition and may result in our inability to sustain our growth and expansion strategies.

If we continue to operate primarily from China and acquire assets and perform operations located in China our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects may be influenced to a significant degree by political, economic and social conditions in China generally, by continued economic growth in China as a whole, and by geopolitical stability in the region.

The Chinese economy, markets and levels of consumer spending are influenced by many factors beyond our control, including current and future economic conditions, political uncertainty, unemployment rates, inflation, fluctuations in the level of disposable income, taxation, foreign exchange administration, and changes in interest and currency exchange rates. The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the level of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, foreign exchange administration and fiscal measures and allocation of resources. Although the Chinese government has implemented measures since the late 1970s emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the restructuring of state assets and state-owned enterprises, and the establishment of improved corporate governance in business enterprises, a significant portion of productive assets in China is still owned or controlled by the Chinese government. The Chinese government also exercises control or influence over Chinese economic growth through allocating resources, administrating payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary and fiscal policies, regulating financial services and institutions and providing differentiated treatment to particular industries or companies.

While the Chinese economy has experienced significant growth in recent decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The Chinese government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures benefit the overall Chinese economy but may also have a negative effect on us. Our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected by government administration on capital investments or changes in tax regulations that are applicable to us. In recent years, Chinese economic growth has slowed and any prolonged slowdown in the Chinese economy may reduce the demand for our products and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The interpretation and enforcement of Chinese laws, rules and regulations may change from time to time, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

If substantially all of our operations continue to be conducted in China, we will continue to be governed by Chinese laws, rules and regulations. Our future target subsidiaries, although not yet acquired, may be subject to laws, rules and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China. The Chinese legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which legal cases may be cited for reference but have limited value as precedents. In the late 1970s, the Chinese government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past four decades has significantly increased the protections afforded to various forms of foreign or private-sector investment in China. However, since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the Chinese legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are subject to changes from time to time.

From time to time, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to interpret and/or enforce our legal rights. However, since Chinese administrative and court authorities have discretion within their scope of authority in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings, and the level of legal protection we enjoy. Such uncertainties, including uncertainty over the scope and effect of our contractual, property (including intellectual property) and procedural rights, and any failure to respond to changes in the regulatory environment in China could materially and adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations. Any administrative and court proceedings in China may be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

Changes in political, business, economic and trade relations between the United States and China may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We cannot predict the possible changes in the economic, regulatory, social and political environment in the United States and China, nor can we predict their potential impact on political, economic and trade relations between the United States and China and on our business.

The United States and China have imposed new or higher tariffs on goods imported from each other, including tariff increases announced by both countries in 2025. If the United States or China continues imposing such tariffs, or if additional tariffs or trade restrictions are implemented by the United States or by China, the resulting trade barriers could have a significant adverse impact on our business. The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions and tariffs, quotas and embargoes, sanctions, the occurrence of a trade war, or other governmental action related to tariffs or trade agreements or policies, has the potential to adversely impact costs, our suppliers and the world economy in general, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

During President Trumps first term in office, he signed executive orders banning transactions by any person, or with respect to any property, subject to the jurisdiction of the United States with respect to WeChat, and with persons that develop or control the following Chinese-connected software applications: Alipay, CamScanner, QQ Wallet, SHAREit, Tencent QQ, VMate, WeChat Pay, and WPS Office, some of which are critical to the operation of our business. These executive orders were revoked on June 9, 2021, by former President Biden, who then signed an executive order directing the Department of Commerce to launch a national security review of apps with links to foreign adversaries (which is defined to include China) and issue recommendations for regulatory and legislative action to address the associated risks. As a result, the implementation of this executive order could adversely affect our business in a material way.

Additionally, China has enacted laws and regulations to respond to foreign sanctions and exterritorial measures, including the Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law dated June 10, 2021. At this time, we do not know the extent to which our operations will be impacted by these laws and regulations.

We cannot foresee whether and how developments in similar policy actions or any other policy actions taken by the U.S. or Chinese government will impact our business and financial performance. In addition, changes in political, business, economic and trade relations between the U.S. and China, including the potential for heightened tensions under the current U.S. administration, may trigger negative customer sentiment and result in less consumer spending in general, potentially resulting in a negative impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Furthermore, the risks and uncertainties associated with U.S.-China political, business, economic and trade relations may negatively impact investor sentiment towards China-based companies listed in the U.S., which could in turn adversely affect the demand, price and trading volume of our shares.

Fluctuation in the value of RMB may result in foreign currency exchange losses.

The conversion of the Renminbi (RMB) into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, is based on rates set by the Peoples Bank of China (PBOC). Historically, the exchange rate between RMB and the U.S. dollar has showed higher volatility in certain years while staying within a narrow range in other years. The value of RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by changes in Chinas political and economic conditions and by Chinas foreign exchange policies, among other things. It is difficult to predict how market forces or Chinese or U.S. government policy may impact the exchange rate between RMB and the U.S. dollar in the future.

We anticipate that our revenues and costs will be denominated in RMB. As a United States holding company, we may rely on dividends and other fees paid to us by our subsidiaries in China. Any significant revaluation of RMB may materially affect our cash flows, revenues, earnings and financial position, and the value of, and any dividends payable on, our common stock in U.S. dollars. For example, an appreciation of RMB against the U.S. dollar would make any new RMB-denominated investments or expenditures more costly to us, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into RMB for such purposes. Conversely, a significant depreciation of RMB against the U.S. dollar may significantly reduce the U.S. dollar equivalent of our earnings, which in turn could adversely affect the price of our common stock. If we decide to convert RMB into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making payments for dividends and share repurchases of our common stock, strategic acquisitions or investments or other business purposes, the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against RMB would have a negative effect on U.S. dollar amounts available to us.

Hedging options available in China may not fully reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. In addition, our currency exchange loss may be magnified by Chinese exchange administration regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into foreign currency. As a result, fluctuations in exchange rates and regulations on exchange may have a material adverse effect on your investment.

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in China against the Company or its management based on foreign laws.

The Company may conduct substantially all of its operations in China upon acquisition of proposed targets. As a result, substantially all of the Companys assets may be located in China. The majority of the Companys directors reside within China and are PRC nationals , and one officer/director is a resident and national of Hong Kong. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process upon the Company or those persons inside the PRC. In addition, the PRC does not have treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with many other countries and regions. Therefore, recognition and enforcement in China of judgments of a court in any of these non-PRC jurisdictions in relation to any matter not subject to a binding arbitration provision may be difficult or impossible.

U.S. regulatory bodies may be limited in their ability to conduct investigations or inspections of the Companys operations in China.

Any disclosure of documents or information located in China by foreign agencies may be subject to jurisdiction constraints and must comply with Chinas state secrecy laws, which broadly define the scope of state secrets to include matters involving economic interests and technologies. There is no guarantee that requests from U.S. federal or state regulators or agencies to investigate or inspect the Companys operations in China will be honored by the Company, by entities who provide services to the Company or with whom the Company associates, without violating PRC legal requirements, especially as those entities are located in China. Furthermore, under the current PRC laws, an on-site inspection of the Companys facilities in China by any of these regulators may be limited or prohibited.

Certain PRC regulations may make it more difficult for the Company to pursue growth through acquisitions.

Among other things, the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (MA Rules) and Anti-Monopoly Law of the Peoples Republic of China promulgated by the Standing Committee of the NPC which became effective in 2008 and latest revised in 2022 (Anti-Monopoly Law), established additional procedures and requirements that could make merger and acquisition activities by non-Chinese investors more time-consuming and complex. Such regulation requires, among other things, that State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction in which a non-Chinese investor acquires control of a PRC domestic enterprise or a foreign company with substantial PRC operations, if certain thresholds under the Provisions of the State Council on the Standard for Declaration of Concentration of Business Operators, issued by the State Council in 2008, are triggered. Moreover, the Anti-Monopoly Law of China requires that transactions which involve the national security, the examination on the national security shall also be conducted according to the relevant provisions. In addition, PRC Measures for the Security Review of Foreign Investment which became effective in January 2021 require acquisitions by non-Chinese investors of PRC companies engaged in military-related or certain other industries that are crucial to national security be subject to security review before consummation of any such acquisition. The Company may pursue potential strategic acquisitions that are complementary to the Companys business and operations.

Complying with the requirements of these regulations to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval or clearance from the MOFCOM, may delay or inhibit the Companys ability to complete such transactions, which could affect the Companys ability to expand the Companys business or maintain the Companys market share.

If we are classified as a PRC resident enterprise for PRC income tax purposes, such classification could result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC shareholders.

Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementation rules, an enterprise established outside of the PRC with its de facto management body within the PRC is considered a resident enterprise and will be subject to the enterprise income tax on its global income at the rate of 25%. The implementation rules define the term de facto management body as the body that exercises full and substantial control and overall management over the business, productions, personnel, accounts and properties of an enterprise. In 2009, the State Administration of Taxation, or SAT, issued a circular, known as SAT Circular 82, which provides certain specific criteria for determining whether the de facto management body of a PRC-controlled enterprise that is incorporated offshore is located in China. Although this circular applies only to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises or PRC enterprise groups, not those controlled by PRC individuals or foreigners, the criteria set forth in the circular may reflect the SATs general position on how the de facto management body text should be applied in determining the tax resident status of all offshore enterprises. According to SAT Circular 82, an offshore incorporated enterprise controlled by a PRC enterprise or a PRC enterprise group will be regarded as a PRC tax resident by virtue of having its de facto management body in China, and will be subject to PRC enterprise income tax on its global income only if all of the following conditions are met: (i) the primary location of the day-to-day operational management is in the PRC; (ii) decisions relating to the enterprises financial and human resource matters are made or are subject to approval by organizations or personnel in the PRC; (iii) the enterprises primary assets, accounting books and records, company seals, and board and shareholder resolutions are located or maintained in the PRC; and (iv) at least 50% of voting board members or senior executives habitually reside in the PRC.

We believe that our company is not a PRC resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes . However, the tax resident status of an enterprise is subject to determination by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with respect to the interpretation of the term de facto management body. If the PRC tax authorities determine that our company is a PRC resident enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes, we would be subject to PRC enterprise income on the Companys worldwide income at the rate of 25%. Furthermore, we would be required to withhold a 10% tax from dividends we pay to our shareholders that are non-PRC-resident enterprises. In addition, non-PRC-resident enterprise shareholders (including the common stockholders) may be subject to PRC tax on gains realized on the sale or other disposition of the common stock, if such income is treated as sourced from within the PRC. Furthermore, if we are deemed a PRC resident enterprise, dividends paid to our non-PRC individual shareholders (including the common stockholders) and any gain realized on the transfer of the common stock by such shareholders may be subject to PRC tax at a rate of 20% (which, in the case of dividends, may be withheld at source by us). These rates may be reduced by an applicable tax treaty, but it is unclear whether non-PRC shareholders of our company would be able to claim the benefits of any tax treaties between their country of tax residence and the PRC in the event that we are treated as a PRC resident enterprise. Any such tax may reduce the returns on your investment in the common stock.

Changes in international trade policies, trade disputes, barriers to trade, or the emergence of a trade war may dampen growth in China.

Political events, international trade disputes, and other business interruptions could harm or disrupt international commerce and the global economy, and could have a material adverse effect on us, our customers, material vendors, and other partners. International trade disputes could result in tariffs and other protectionist measures which may materially and adversely affect our business.

There have also been concerns about the relationship between the PRC and other countries, including the surrounding Asian countries, which may potentially have economic effects. In particular, there is significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and the PRC with respect to trade policies, treaties, government regulations and tariffs. Economic conditions in China are sensitive to global economic conditions, as well as changes in domestic economic and political policies and the expected or perceived overall economic growth rate in China.

Political uncertainty surrounding international trade disputes and the potential of the escalation to trade war and global recession could have a negative effect on customer confidence. We may have also access to fewer business opportunities, and our operations may be negatively impacted as a result. In addition, the current and future actions or escalations by either the United States or the PRC that affect trade relations may cause global economic turmoil and potentially have a negative impact on our markets, our business, or our results of operations, as well as the financial condition of our clients, and we cannot provide any assurances as to whether such actions will occur or the form that they may take.
