Ordinary shares
On May 14, 2026, the board of directors of the Company approved to effect a share consolidation (the “Share Consolidation”) at a ratio of 1-for-10 so that every ten ordinary shares are consolidated into one ordinary share (with the fractional shares rounding up to the next whole share). The Company’s ordinary shares commenced trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market on a post Share Consolidation basis on June 4, 2026. As a result of the Share Consolidation, the par value of the ordinary shares of the Company was changed from $0.000001 per share to $0.00001 per share. All shares and per share amounts and in the consolidated financial statements have been retroactively stated to reflect the effect of the reverse stock split. As of March 31, 2026, the issued and outstanding number of ordinary shares became 1,024,834, presented on a retroactive basis.
IPO Representative’s Warrants
Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement of the Company’s IPO, the Company issued to the Representative and its designee warrants (the “IPO Representative’s Warrants”) to purchase 70,000 ordinary shares. The IPO Representative’s Warrants are exercisable at a per share exercise price of $4.00 equal to IPO price and are exercisable at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, during the period commencing on April 2, 2025 and terminating on March 31, 2030. Neither the IPO Representative’s Warrants nor any of the shares issued upon exercise of the IPO Representative’s Warrants may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of such securities by any person, for a period of 180 days following April 2, 2025.
Management determined that these warrants meet the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815-40 because they are indexed to their own shares and meet the requirements for equity classification. The warrants were recorded at their fair value on the date of grant as a component of shareholders’ equity. The fair value of these warrants was $111,979, which was considered a direct cost of IPO and included in additional paid-in capital. The fair value has been estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: market value of underlying share of $4.00, risk free rate of 3.95%, expected term of five years; exercise price of the warrants of $4.00, volatility of 311.23%; and expected future dividends of nil.
Giving retroactive effect to the 1-for-10 reverse stock splits on the Company’s ordinary shares that became effective on June 4, 2026, as of March 31, 2026, 7,000 warrants in connection with IPO funding was outstanding, with an exercise price of $40.00 and remaining life of 4 years.

Restricted net assets
The Company’s ability to pay dividends is primarily dependent on the Company receiving distributions of funds from its subsidiary. Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by PRC Subsidiaries only out of their retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The results of operations reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of the PRC Subsidiaries.
PRC Subsidiaries are required to set aside at least 10% of their after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund certain statutory reserve funds until such reserve funds reach 50% of their respective registered capital. In addition, PRC Subsidiaries may allocate a portion of their after-tax profits based on PRC accounting standards to enterprise expansion fund and staff bonus and welfare fund at their discretion. PRC Subsidiaries may allocate a portion of their respective after-tax profits based on PRC accounting standards to a discretionary surplus fund at their discretion. The statutory reserve funds and the discretionary funds are not distributable as cash dividends. Remittance of dividends by a wholly foreign-owned company out of China is subject to examination by the banks designated by State Administration of Foreign Exchange. As of March 31, 2026 and September 30, 2025, the Company collectively attributed $186,225 and $186,225 of retained earnings for their statutory reserves, respectively.
As a result of the foregoing restrictions, PRC Subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer their assets to the Company. Foreign exchange and other regulation in the PRC may further restrict PRC Subsidiaries from transferring funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and advances. As of March 31, 2026 and September 30, 2025, amounts restricted are the paid-in-capital of PRC Subsidiaries, which amounted to $2,121,581 and $2,121,581, respectively.
