Recently, the Group has pursued strategic expansion into real world asset (RWA) tokenization, entering into a non-legally binding term sheet on 1 December 2025 with Kimber Labs Inc. (d/b/a Plume) to refer eligible RWAs such as new energy assets, housing assets, and intellectual property rights for on-chain tokenization and revenue distribution; an RWA services agreement on 30 September 2025 with Guangdong Tianyima Digital Energy Co., Ltd. to provide consultancy, coordination, and compliance support for RWA financing plans without direct issuance or financial guarantees; and three RWA framework agreements in October and November 2025 with Spectra Digital Company Limited and Shanghai Qufu Consulting and Planning Company Limited for real estate and industrial asset tokenization and RWA fund establishment, Nano Labs Ltd. and Spectra Digital for tokenizing photovoltaic new energy assets, and Junyuan Digital Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. for blockchain-based digital asset management and settlement. To support this initiative, the Group appointed Mr. Zheng Huajiang as CEO of a wholly-owned subsidiary in September 2025 and assembled a dedicated RWA team including experts Dr. Yu Jianing, Mr. Leon Liu, and Mr. Vincent Zhu with backgrounds in blockchain, Web3, digital finance, and asset tokenization. On 5 November 2025, the Company allotted and issued 53,433,000 new shares under its general mandate at HK$0.43 per share, raising approximately HK$22.97 million net proceeds for working capital and corporate purposes. The Group previously changed its name from Northern International Holdings Ltd. in November 2007 and maintains subsidiaries such as Shanghai Xiang Chen Hang Place The Industry Co. Limited, with investment properties valued at approximately HK$154 million pledged to secure intra-group borrowings as of 30 September 2025.
