Reorganization and Share Issuance On April 28, 2021, Lichen passed a resolution to increase the share capital. Pursuant to such resolution, the authorized share capital of Lichen was increased from HK$50,000 divided into 5,000,000 shares with a nominal or par value of HK$0.01 each (“HKD Shares”) to the aggregate of (i) HK$50,000 divided into 5,000,000 HKD Shares and (ii) US$50,000 divided into (a) 400,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares with a nominal or par value of US$0.0001 each and (b) 100,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares with a nominal or par value of US$0.0001 each. 5,400,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and 3,600,000 Class B Ordinary Shares (collectively, the “USD Shares”) were issued at the consideration of US$0.0001 per share. Upon the completion of the share issuance, all HKD Shares issued were repurchased by Lichen at the consideration HK$0.01 per share and cancelled immediately upon repurchase. Upon completion of the repurchase, the 5,000,000 unissued HKD Shares of the Company were cancelled resulting in the reduction of the authorized share capital of the Company to US$50,000 divided into (a) 400,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares with a nominal or par value of US$0.0001 each and (b) 100,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares with a nominal or par value of US$0.0001, each in accordance with section 13 of the Cayman Islands Companies Act. The issuance of 5,400,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and 3,600,000 Class B Ordinary Shares, the repurchase and the cancellation of HKD Shares were completed on April 28, 2021. On December 15, 2021, Lichen executed a special resolution to change the par value of the ordinary shares from $0.0001 to $0.00004. Pursuant to such resolution, the authorized share capital of Lichen was US$50,000 divided into (a) 1,000,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares with a nominal or par value of US$0.00004 each and (b) 250,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares with a nominal or par value of US$0.00004, each in accordance with section 13 of the Cayman Islands Companies Act. The changes were completed on December 23, 2021. The change in capital structure is treated as being effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The consideration paid by Lichen and its subsidiaries has been accounted for at historical cost and prepared on the basis as if the aforementioned transactions had become effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. As all the entities involved in the process of the Reorganization are under common control before and after the Reorganization, the Reorganization is accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling-of-interest with the assets and liabilities of the parties to the Reorganization carried over at their historical amounts. Initial Public Offering On February 8, 2023, the Company closed its initial public offering of 4,000,000 Class A ordinary shares at a public offering price of $4.00 per Class A ordinary share for a total of $16,000,000 in gross proceeds. The Company raised total net proceeds of $14,098,140 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. In addition, the Company granted to its underwriters an option for a period of 45 days after the closing of the initial public offering to purchase up to an additional 600,000 Class A Ordinary Shares at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts.

All transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of are recorded in the consolidated income statements from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. A subsidiary is an entity in which (i) the Company directly or indirectly controls more than 50% of the voting power; or (ii) the Company has the power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors or to cast a majority of votes at the meetings of the board of directors or to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee pursuant to a statute or under an agreement among the shareholders or equity holders. Use of estimate and assumptions The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives of long-lived assets, impairment of long-lived assets and uncertain tax position. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Business combination Business combinations are recorded using the acquisition method of accounting. The assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interests of the acquiree at the acquisition date, if any, are measured at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is recognized and measured as the excess of the total consideration transferred plus the fair value of any non-controlling interest of the acquiree and fair value of previously held equity interest in the acquiree, if any, at the acquisition date over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired. Common forms of the consideration made in acquisitions include cash and common equity instruments. Consideration transferred in a business acquisition is measured at the fair value as of the date of acquisition. Acquisition-related expenses and restructuring costs are expensed as incurred. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 establishes a measurement period to provide the Company with a reasonable amount of time to obtain the information necessary to identify and measure various items in a business combination and cannot extend beyond one year from the acquisition date. Functional currency and foreign currency translation The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“US$”). The Company’s operations are principally conducted through its subsidiaries in PRC in the local currency, Renminbi (RMB), as its functional currency. The functional currency of the Company’s entities incorporated in Hong Kong is the Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”). The determination of the respective functional currency is based on the criteria of Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 830, Foreign Currency Matters. Assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate as quoted by the PBOC (“The People’s Bank of China”) at the balance sheet date. The statement of income accounts is translated at the average exchange rates for the periods and the equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. Translation adjustments included in accumulated other comprehensive loss amounted to $0.82 million and $2.69 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The shareholders’ equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. Cash flows are also translated at average translation rates for the periods, therefore, amounts reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.Translation of foreign currencies into US$1 have been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods: <table cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse: collapse;

Fair value of financial instruments ASC 825-10 requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: <table cellpadding="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; width: 100%; border-spacing: 0px;"><tr style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify"> <td style="width: 0.25in"></td><td style="width: 0.25in; text-align: left">●</td><td style="text-align: justify">Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.</td> </tr></table> <table cellpadding="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; width: 100%; border-spacing: 0px;"><tr style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify"> <td style="width: 0.25in"></td><td style="width: 0.25in; text-align: left">●</td><td style="text-align: justify">Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted market prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.</td> </tr></table> <table cellpadding="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; width: 100%; border-spacing: 0px;"><tr style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify"> <td style="width: 0.25in"></td><td style="width: 0.25in; text-align: left">●</td><td style="text-align: justify">Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable.</td> </tr></table> The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, approximate their recorded values due to their short-term maturities as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Cash Cash consist of cash on hand, cash in banks, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, and have insignificant risk of changes in value. The Company maintains most of its bank accounts in the Cayman and mainland of China. Accounts receivable, net Accounts receivable are recorded at the gross billing amount less an allowance for any uncollectible accounts due from the customers. Accounts receivable do not bear interest.Since January 1, 2024, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), using the modified retrospective transition method. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. Upon adoption, the Company changed the impairment model to utilize a forward-looking current expected credit losses (CECL) model in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and receivables resulting from the application of ASC 606, including contract assets. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses and records the allowance for credit losses as an offset to accounts receivable and the estimated credit losses charged to the allowance is classified as “General and administrative expenses” in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. The Company assesses collectability by reviewing accounts receivable on aging schedules because the accounts receivable were primarily consisted of receivables arising from (i) financial and taxation solution services; (ii) education support services to partnered institutions; (iii) software and maintenance services, and (iv) Pre-IPO advisory services. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collectability based on past due status, the age of the balances, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect the Company’s ability to collect from customers. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for expected credit loss after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not provide expected credit losses against accounts receivable. Contract assets Contract assets represent the Company’s right to consideration in exchange for goods and service performed, which invoice has not been issued. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost elements of inventories comprise the purchase price of products, shipping charges to receive products from the suppliers when they are embedded in the purchase price. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Provisions are made for excessive, slow moving, expired and obsolete inventories as well as for inventories with carrying values in excess of market. Certain factors could impact the realizable value of inventory, so the Company continually evaluates the recoverability based on assumptions about customer demand and market conditions. The evaluation may take into consideration historical usage, inventory aging, expiration date, expected demand, anticipated sales price, product obsolescence and other factors. The reserve or write-down is equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated net realizable value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory reserves or write-downs may be required that could negatively impact the Company’s gross margin and operating results. If actual market conditions are more favorable, the Company may have higher gross margin when products that have been previously reserved or written down are eventually sold. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, management compared the cost of inventories with their net realizable value and determined no inventory write-down was necessary. Prepayments, deposits and other current assets Prepayments, deposits, and other current assets mainly represents deferred input VAT. The deposits are refundable and bear no interest pursuant to terms of contract. Long-term investments The Company’s long-term investments primarily consist of equity investments accounted for using the equity method and other investments accounted for at fair value.Equity investments accounted for using the equity method The Group applies the equity method of accounting to account for equity investments and limited partnership in a private equity fund, according to ASC 323 Investment—Equity Method and Joint Ventures, over which it has significant influence but does not own a majority equity interest or otherwise control. Under the equity method, the Group initially records the investments at cost and the difference between the cost of the equity investee and the fair value of the underlying equity in the net assets of the equity investee is recognized as equity method goodwill, which is included in the equity method investments on the consolidated balance sheets. The Group subsequently adjusts the carrying amount of the investments to recognize its proportionate share of each equity investee’s net income or loss into earnings and cash distributions from investees, after the date of investment. The Group evaluates the equity method investments for impairment under ASC 323. An impairment loss on the equity method investments is recognized as “Investment loss, net (including impairments)” in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss when the decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary. Investments accounted for at fair value In accordance with ASC 825, Financial Instruments, for financial products with variable interest rates referenced to performance of underlying assets and with original maturities greater than one year, the Group elected the fair value method at the date of initial recognition and carries these investments at fair value. Changes in the fair value of these investments are reflected on the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss as “Investment loss, net (including impairments)”. Property and equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment if any. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives. <table cellpadding="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; border-spacing: 0px;"> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Categories</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">Useful Life</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">Estimated Residual Value</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom; background-color: #CCEEFF"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 79%">Building</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 12%; text-align: center">20-50 years </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 9%; text-align: right"> 5</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%">%</td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Motor vehicles</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">10 years</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: right">5</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">%</td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom; background-color: #CCEEFF"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Furniture and equipment</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">3-5 years</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: right">5</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">%</td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Office improvements</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">3-5 years</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: right">0</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">%</td></tr> </table> The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred, while additions, renewals and betterments, which are expected to extend the useful life of assets, are capitalized. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. Intangible assets An intangible asset is recognized when it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are initially recognized at cost, less any accumulated amortization and any impairment losses. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. <table cellpadding="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; border-spacing: 0px;"> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 86%">Categories</td> <td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 12%; text-align: center">Estimated Useful Life</td> <td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%"> </td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom; background-color: #CCEEFF"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Licensed software</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">5 years</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Customer relationship</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">5 years</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td></tr> </table> Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination.Goodwill is not depreciated or amortized but is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of December 31, and in between annual tests when an event occurs or circumstances change that could indicate that the asset might be impaired. In accordance with the FASB ASC 350 guidance on “Testing of Goodwill for Impairment”, a company first has the option to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the company decides, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is mandatory. Otherwise, no further testing is required. The quantitative impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of each reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss equal to the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the carrying amount will be recorded. Application of a goodwill impairment test requires significant management judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value of each reporting unit. The judgment in estimating the fair value of reporting units includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and making other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value for each reporting unit. Prepaid and other assets Mainly represents the deposit of the new purchased property and prepaid renovation expense. The deposits are refundable and bear no interest pursuant to terms of contract. The property under development is scheduled to being completed by the end of 2028. The amortization period of the renovation is five years. Impairment of long-lived assets The Company evaluates its long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangibles with finite lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will impact the future use of the assets, indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. When these events occur, the Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over their fair value. Fair value is generally determined by discounting the cash flows expected to be generated by the assets, when the market prices are not readily available. The adjusted carrying amount of the assets become new cost basis and are depreciated over the assets’ remaining useful lives. Long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. Given no events or changes in circumstances indicating the carrying amount of long-lived assets may not be recovered through the related future net cash flows, the Company did not recognize any impairment loss on long-lived assets for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. There can be no assurance that future events will not have impact on the Company’s revenue or financial position which could result in impairment in the future. Operating leases The Company, through its subsidiary, leases its office, which are classified as operating leases in accordance with ASC 842. Operating leases are required to record in the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients, which allows the Company not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are or contain a lease, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date, and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date. The Company elected the short-term lease exemption for the lease terms that are 12 months or less. At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Company assesses whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset. The right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. The Company recognizes operating lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term and had no finance leases for any of the periods stated herein.The right-of-use of asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentive received. All right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment annually. There was no impairment for right-of-use assets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Share-based compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”. ASC 718 requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including the equity incentive plan, based on the grant date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Stock option forfeitures are recognized at the date of employee termination. Effective January 1, 2024, the Company adopted ASU 2018-07 for the accounting of share-based payments granted to non-employees for goods and services and no material impacts to the Financial Statements. Contingencies From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues costs associated with these matters when they become probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. The Company’s management does not expect any liability from the disposition of such claims and litigation individually or in the aggregate would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Revenue recognition The Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective as of January 1, 2019. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are presented under ASC 606. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is the transaction price the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the promised goods or services in a contract in the ordinary course of the Company’s activities and is recorded net of value-added tax (“VAT”). To achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following steps: Step 1: Identify the contract (s) with a customer Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract Step 3: Determine the transaction price Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation No practical expedients were used when the Company adopted the ASC 606. Revenue recognition policies for each type of revenue stream are as follow: Financial and taxation solution services Revenues from financial and taxation solution services for which control of services is transferred over time is recognized progressively based on the contract costs incurred to date (primarily comprising staff costs and industry expert cost by reference to the time as recorded in the monthly working record incurred to date) as compared to the total costs to be incurred under the transaction (by reference to the total budgeted time of the respective project) to depict the Company’s performance in transferring control of services promised to a customer. The Company recognizes revenues over time only if it can reasonably measure its progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. The Company normally requires the customers to pay a deposit upon entering into the service contracts.For revenue generated from the provision of financial and taxation solution services, the arrangement involves a bundle of activities (e.g., scheme design, implementation guidance, evaluation) that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Accordingly, these activities are not separately identifiable and form only one series of distinct service. The series of distinct services within the contract are treated as one performance obligation because they are substantially the same and transfer to the customer in the same pattern over time. The Company evaluates that it acts as the principal in these arrangements. It controls the promised services before transfer, is primarily responsible for fulfilment, and has discretion in pricing. Therefore, the Company reports revenues from financial and taxation solution services on a gross basis. We do not provide any other credit and incentive related to our services, therefore there is no variable consideration in the arrangement. As our services are provided without right of return and we do not provide any other credit and incentive to our customers, therefore, the provision of financial and taxation solution services does not involve variable consideration. Education support services - sales of teaching and learning materials Revenues from the sales of educational materials for which control of assets is transferred at a point in time is recognized when the goods are delivered to customers. The Company does not provide any sales-related warranties. There is no right of return by customers under the Company’s standard contract terms. Education support services - Provision of marketing, operation and technical support services Revenues from provision of marketing, operation and technical support services from the partnered institutions is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. The transaction price inclusive of value added tax as received from customers in advance is recognized as a contract liability at the time of the initial transaction and is released on a straight-line basis over the period of service (usually one year). Software and maintenance services Standard software is a right to use license because the software has standalone functionality and the customer can use the software as it is available at a point in time. The Company recognizes revenues for such licenses at a point in time when the customer has received licenses and thus has control over the software. In case there is an update of the standard software, end customers or distributors are required to pay additional consideration to buy upgraded version. Revenues from maintenance services is recognized over time within the service period. For revenue generated from the software and maintenance services, one software and maintenance service is normally included as a bundle package for the first-time purchase. There are two separate performance obligations in such bundle sales as the software is a distinct good while the maintenance service is a distinct service. We allocate the transaction price to each distinct performance obligation based on their relative standalone selling prices. The Company evaluates that it acts as the principal in these arrangements. It controls the promised services before transfer, is primarily responsible for fulfilment, and has discretion in pricing. Therefore, the Company reports revenues from the software and maintenance services on a gross basis. We do not provide any other credit and incentive related to our services, therefore there is no variable consideration in the arrangement. As our services are provided without right of return and we do not provide any other credit and incentive to our customers, therefore, software and maintenance services does not involve variable consideration. Pre-IPO advisory services Revenues from the provision of Pre-IPO advisory services is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. The arrangement involves a bundle of activities (e.g., planning, guidance and participation in the pre-IPO-related matters) that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Accordingly, these activities are not separately identifiable and form only one series of distinct service. The series of distinct services within the contract is treated as one performance obligation because the services are substantially the same and transfer to the customer in the same pattern over time. The Company determines that it acts as the principal in these arrangements, as it controls the promised services before transfer, is primarily responsible for fulfilment, and has discretion in pricing. Accordingly, the Company reports revenues from Pre-IPO advisory services on a gross basis.The transaction price consists of a fixed component and a variable component. The success fee is variable consideration that depends on the outcome of a future event (the IPO funding amount). At contract inception, significant uncertainty exists regarding whether the IPO will occur and the amount of funding. Given this uncertainty, the success fee is constrained and not included in the initial transaction price, as including it would result in a significant revenue reversal if the IPO fails. Contract liabilities Contract liability is recorded when a payment is received from a customer before the Company transfers the related services. Contract liability is recognized as revenue when the Company performs the services under the contract.

In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the CODM, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s revenue segments have similar economic characteristics and they are managed as a single business unit. The Company uses the “management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the CODM, which is comprised of the executive directors of the Company, for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company has determined that there is only one reportable operating segment. Value added tax (“VAT”) Revenue represents the invoiced value of goods and service, net of VAT. The VAT is based on gross sales price and VAT rates range up to 13%, depending on the type of products sold or service provided. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities. Net VAT balance between input VAT and output VAT is recorded in taxes payable. All of the VAT returns filed by the Company’s subsidiaries in PRC remain subject to examination by the tax authorities for five years from the date of filing. Income taxes The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 (“ASC 740”), Income Taxes. The Company accounts for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. Deferred income taxes are recognized when temporary differences exist between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.The Company is not subject to tax on income or capital gain under the current tax laws of U.S. And the Company is subject to tax on income or capital gain under the tax laws of PRC. An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, no uncertain tax position is recognized. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. No significant penalties or interest relating to income taxes have been incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2054. All of the tax returns of the Company’s subsidiaries in PRC remain subject to examination by the tax authorities for five years from the date of filing. Statutory surplus reserves The Company’s PRC subsidiaries are required to allocate at least 10% of their after-tax profit to the general reserve in accordance with the PRC accounting standards and regulations. The allocation to the general reserve will cease if such reserve has reached 50% of the registered capital of respective company. These reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferable to the Company in the form of loans, advances, or cash dividends. There is no such regulation of providing statutory reserve in Hong Kong. Advertising expenses Advertising expenditures are expensed as incurred and such expenses were included as part of selling and marketing expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the advertising expenses amounted to approximately $4.43 million and $5.17 million, respectively. Comprehensive loss Comprehensive loss consists of two components, net loss and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under GAAP are recorded as an element of equity but are excluded from net income. Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of a foreign currency translation adjustment resulting from the Company not using the U.S. dollar as its functional currencies. (Loss) Earnings per ordinary share The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires companies to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income divided by the weighted average common share outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per-share basis of the potential Ordinary Shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential Ordinary Shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. There were no dilutive or anti-dilutive potential Ordinary Shares or effect for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Recent accounting pronouncements In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, which is to correct, clarify, and otherwise improve U.S. GAAP. ASU 2025-12 includes 33 improvements that span a wide range of topics, including Clarifying diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculation when a loss from continuing operations exists, Clarifying disclosure requirements for lease receivables from sales-type or direct financing leases, Revising the calculation of the reference amount for beneficial interests to prevent double counting credit losses, Clarifying the permissible methods to account for treasury stock retirements, and Clarifying the guidance for transfers of receivables from contracts with customers. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual reporting periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. If an entity adopts the amendments in this Update in an interim period, it must adopt them as of the beginning of the annual reporting period that includes that interim reporting period. An entity may elect to early adopt the amendments on an issue-by-issue basis. For example, an entity may decide to early adopt certain amendments and adopt the remaining amendments at the effective date. An entity should apply the amendments in this Update (except for the amendments to Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, related to Issue 4) using one of the following transition methods: (i) Prospectively to all transactions recognized on or after the date that the entity first applies the amendments, or (ii) Retrospectively to the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. An entity should adjust the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial position) as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact.In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, which is intended to improve the navigability of the guidance in ASC 270 and clarify when it applies. Under the amendments, an entity is subject to ASC 270 if it provides interim financial statements and notes in accordance with GAAP. The ASU also addresses the form and content of such financial statements, adds lists to ASC 270 of the interim disclosures required by all other Codification topics, and establishes a principle under which an entity must disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. As the Board stated in the proposed guidance and reiterates in the ASU, the amendments are not intended to change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2025-11 are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. For entities other than public business entities, for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. The ASU establishes authoritative guidance on the accounting for government grants received by business entities. This update is effective beginning with annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2029, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its combined financial statements. On September 18, 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. ASU 2025-06 modernizes the accounting for internal-use software (the existing internal-use software guidance does not contemplate more current methods of software development). The amendments in ASU 2025-06 are limited and focused on the key challenge that entities face in applying FASB Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 350-40—applying that guidance to software that is developed using modern, iterative approaches such as Agile, DevOps, and continuous-deployment models that do not fit neatly into the legacy “preliminary-project / application-development / post-implementation” stages described in today’s Subtopic 350-40.The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The Company expects the adoption on this ASU will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, “Income Statement – Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date.” This pronouncement revises the effective date of ASU 2024-03 and clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Entities within the ASU’s scope are permitted to early adopt the accounting standard update. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” This pronouncement introduces new disclosure requirements aimed at enhancing transparency in financial reporting by requiring disaggregation of specific income statement expense captions. Under the new guidance, entities are required to disclose a breakdown of certain expense categories, such as: employee compensation; depreciation; amortization, and other material components. The disaggregated information can be presented either on the face of the income statement or in the notes to the financial statements, often using a tabular format. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those fiscal years. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, “Income Statement – Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date.” This pronouncement revises the effective date of ASU 2024-03 and clarifies that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Entities within the ASU’s scope are permitted to early adopt the accounting standard update. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact.In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements — Codification Amendments in Response to SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative which amend the disclosure or presentation requirements of codification subtopic 230-10 Statement of Cash Flows — Overall, 250-10 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections — Overall, 260-10 Earnings Per Share — Overall, 270-10 Interim Reporting — Overall, 440-10 Commitments — Overall, 470-10 Debt — Overall, 505-10 Equity — Overall, 815-10 Derivatives and Hedging — Overall, 860-30 Transfers and Servicing — Secured Borrowing and Collateral, 932-235 Extractive Activities — Oil and Gas — Notes to Financial Statements, 946-20 Financial Services — Investment Companies — Investment Company Activities, and 974-10 Real Estate — Real Estate Investment Trusts — Overall. The amendments represent changes to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of the above subtopics. Many of the amendments allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the SEC’s requirements. Also, the amendments align the requirements in the codification with the SEC’s regulations. For entities subject to existing SEC disclosure requirements or those that must provide financial statements to the SEC for securities purposes without contractual transfer restrictions, the effective date aligns with the date when the SEC removes the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. Early adoption is not allowed. For all other entities, the amendments will be effective two years later from the date of the SEC’s removal. Except for the above-mentioned pronouncements, there are no new recent issued accounting standards that will have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows.

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred, while additions, renewals and betterments, which are expected to extend the useful life of assets, are capitalized. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives.<table cellpadding="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; border-spacing: 0px;"> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Categories</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">Useful Life</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">Estimated Residual Value</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom; background-color: #CCEEFF"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 79%">Building</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 12%; text-align: center">20-50 years </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 9%; text-align: right"> 5</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 1%">%</td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Motor vehicles</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">10 years</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: right">5</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">%</td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom; background-color: #CCEEFF"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Furniture and equipment</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">3-5 years</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: right">5</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">%</td></tr> <tr style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">Office improvements</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: center">3-5 years</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"> </td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: right">0</td> <td style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">%</td></tr> </table>

Revenue recognitionThe Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective as of January 1, 2019. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are presented under ASC 606. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is the transaction price the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the promised goods or services in a contract in the ordinary course of the Company’s activities and is recorded net of value-added tax (“VAT”). To achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following steps:Step 1: Identify the contract (s) with a customerStep 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contractStep 3: Determine the transaction priceStep 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contractStep 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligationNo practical expedients were used when the Company adopted the ASC 606. Revenue recognition policies for each type of revenue stream are as follow:Financial and taxation solution servicesRevenues from financial and taxation solution services for which control of services is transferred over time is recognized progressively based on the contract costs incurred to date (primarily comprising staff costs and industry expert cost by reference to the time as recorded in the monthly working record incurred to date) as compared to the total costs to be incurred under the transaction (by reference to the total budgeted time of the respective project) to depict the Company’s performance in transferring control of services promised to a customer. The Company recognizes revenues over time only if it can reasonably measure its progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. The Company normally requires the customers to pay a deposit upon entering into the service contracts.For revenue generated from the provision of financial and taxation solution services, the arrangement involves a bundle of activities (e.g., scheme design, implementation guidance, evaluation) that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Accordingly, these activities are not separately identifiable and form only one series of distinct service.The series of distinct services within the contract are treated as one performance obligation because they are substantially the same and transfer to the customer in the same pattern over time. The Company evaluates that it acts as the principal in these arrangements. It controls the promised services before transfer, is primarily responsible for fulfilment, and has discretion in pricing. Therefore, the Company reports revenues from financial and taxation solution services on a gross basis. We do not provide any other credit and incentive related to our services, therefore there is no variable consideration in the arrangement. As our services are provided without right of return and we do not provide any other credit and incentive to our customers, therefore, the provision of financial and taxation solution services does not involve variable consideration.Education support services - sales of teaching and learning materialsRevenues from the sales of educational materials for which control of assets is transferred at a point in time is recognized when the goods are delivered to customers. The Company does not provide any sales-related warranties. There is no right of return by customers under the Company’s standard contract terms.Education support services - Provision of marketing, operation and technical support servicesRevenues from provision of marketing, operation and technical support services from the partnered institutions is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. The transaction price inclusive of value added tax as received from customers in advance is recognized as a contract liability at the time of the initial transaction and is released on a straight-line basis over the period of service (usually one year).Software and maintenance servicesStandard software is a right to use license because the software has standalone functionality and the customer can use the software as it is available at a point in time. The Company recognizes revenues for such licenses at a point in time when the customer has received licenses and thus has control over the software. In case there is an update of the standard software, end customers or distributors are required to pay additional consideration to buy upgraded version. Revenues from maintenance services is recognized over time within the service period.For revenue generated from the software and maintenance services, one software and maintenance service is normally included as a bundle package for the first-time purchase. There are two separate performance obligations in such bundle sales as the software is a distinct good while the maintenance service is a distinct service. We allocate the transaction price to each distinct performance obligation based on their relative standalone selling prices.The Company evaluates that it acts as the principal in these arrangements. It controls the promised services before transfer, is primarily responsible for fulfilment, and has discretion in pricing. Therefore, the Company reports revenues from the software and maintenance services on a gross basis. We do not provide any other credit and incentive related to our services, therefore there is no variable consideration in the arrangement. As our services are provided without right of return and we do not provide any other credit and incentive to our customers, therefore, software and maintenance services does not involve variable consideration.Pre-IPO advisory servicesRevenues from the provision of Pre-IPO advisory services is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. The arrangement involves a bundle of activities (e.g., planning, guidance and participation in the pre-IPO-related matters) that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Accordingly, these activities are not separately identifiable and form only one series of distinct service.The series of distinct services within the contract is treated as one performance obligation because the services are substantially the same and transfer to the customer in the same pattern over time. The Company determines that it acts as the principal in these arrangements, as it controls the promised services before transfer, is primarily responsible for fulfilment, and has discretion in pricing. Accordingly, the Company reports revenues from Pre-IPO advisory services on a gross basis.The transaction price consists of a fixed component and a variable component. The success fee is variable consideration that depends on the outcome of a future event (the IPO funding amount). At contract inception, significant uncertainty exists regarding whether the IPO will occur and the amount of funding. Given this uncertainty, the success fee is constrained and not included in the initial transaction price, as including it would result in a significant revenue reversal if the IPO fails.Contract liabilitiesContract liability is recorded when a payment is received from a customer before the Company transfers the related services. Contract liability is recognized as revenue when the Company performs the services under the contract.Disaggregated information of revenues by services:<table cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; border-spacing: 0px;"> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom"> <td> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td colspan="6" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1pt solid">For the six months ended June 30</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; font-weight: bold"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom"> <td> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1pt solid">2026</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; font-weight: bold"> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1pt solid">2025</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; font-weight: bold"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="width: 76%; text-align: left; padding-left: 9.95pt">Financial and taxation solution services</td><td style="width: 1%"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left">$</td><td style="width: 9%; text-align: right">8,053</td><td style="width: 1%; text-align: left"> </td><td style="width: 1%"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left">$</td><td style="width: 9%; text-align: right">11,579</td><td style="width: 1%; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="text-align: left; padding-left: 9.95pt">Education support services</td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left"> </td><td style="text-align: right">-</td><td style="text-align: left"> </td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left"> </td><td style="text-align: right">760</td><td style="text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="text-align: left; padding-left: 9.95pt">Software and maintenance services</td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left"> </td><td style="text-align: right">1,271</td><td style="text-align: left"> </td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left"> </td><td style="text-align: right">1,330</td><td style="text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="text-align: left; padding-bottom: 1pt; padding-left: 9.95pt">Pre-IPO advisory services</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: right">940</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; text-align: left"> </td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: right">591</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 2.5pt">Revenues</td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 2.5pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 2.5pt double; font-weight: bold; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 2.5pt double; font-weight: bold; text-align: right">10,264</td><td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: left"> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 2.5pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 2.5pt double; font-weight: bold; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 2.5pt double; font-weight: bold; text-align: right">14,260</td><td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: left"> </td></tr> </table>

15. Business Combination Acquisition of Bondly HK On July 29, 2024, the Company acquired 60% equity interest of Bondly HK with total cash consideration of $8,000,000. Bondly HK is a company incorporated in Hong Kong. Bondly HK and its subsidiary also engage in professional education business. The acquisition has further strengthened the transaction and service scenario of the financial and taxation solution services of the Company. The results of Bondly HK and its subsidiary have been included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company since the acquisition date of July 29, 2024. On February 26, 2025, the Company acquired the remaining 40% equity interest of Bondly HK with total cash consideration of $5,330,000. The Company engaged an independent valuation firm to assist management in valuing assets acquired, liabilities assumed, intangible assets identified and contingent consideration as of the acquisition day. The identifiable intangible assets acquired upon acquisition were proprietary technology with definite useful life. All other current assets and current liabilities carrying value approximated fair value at the time of acquisition. The fair value of the consideration was based on closing market price of the Company’s common share on the acquisition date. According to the independent valuation report, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values. Fair value of the non-controlling interests was evaluated based on the equity value of Bondly HK derived by the discounted cash flow method after considering a discount for lack of control: <table cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; border-spacing: 0px;"> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="font-weight: bold">Fair value of total consideration transferred:</td><td> </td> <td colspan="2" style="text-align: right"> </td><td> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="width: 88%; text-align: left; padding-bottom: 1pt">Cash consideration</td><td style="width: 1%; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: left">$</td><td style="width: 9%; border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: right">8,000</td><td style="width: 1%; padding-bottom: 1pt; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1pt">Subtotal</td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font-weight: bold; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font-weight: bold; text-align: right">8,000</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td> </td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left"> </td><td style="text-align: right"> </td><td style="text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="font-weight: bold; text-align: left">Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liability assumed:</td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left"> </td><td style="text-align: right"> </td><td style="text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td>Cash</td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left">$</td><td style="text-align: right">1,186</td><td style="text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="text-align: left">Current assets other than cash</td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left"> </td><td style="text-align: right">634</td><td style="text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="text-align: left">Intangible asset – customer relationships</td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left"> </td><td style="text-align: right">3,557</td><td style="text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="text-align: left">Other non-current assets</td><td> </td> <td style="text-align: left"> </td><td style="text-align: right">1,764</td><td style="text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="text-align: left; padding-bottom: 1pt">Current liabilities</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: right">(1,231</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; text-align: left">)</td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="font-weight: bold; text-align: left; padding-bottom: 1pt">Total identifiable net assets</td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font-weight: bold; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font-weight: bold; text-align: right">5,910</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="padding-bottom: 1pt">Fair value of non-controlling interests*</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; text-align: right">2,364</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1pt">Goodwill</td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font-weight: bold; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1pt solid; font-weight: bold; text-align: right">4,454</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: left"> </td></tr> </table>
