Amendment No. 3 to Registration Statement on Form F-1
Filed March 17, 2023
File No. 333-267169
Dear
Mr. Atallah:
Gelteq
Limited (the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) hereby transmits its response to
the comment letter received from the staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
on March 27, 2023, regarding the Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed with the Commission on March 17, 2023 (the “Registration
Statement”).
For
the Staff’s convenience, we have repeated below the Staff’s comments in bold, and have followed each comment with the Company’s
response. Disclosure changes made in response to the Staff’s comments have been made in Amendment No. 4 to the Registration Statement
(the “Amendment”) which is being submitted to the Commission contemporaneously with the submission of this letter.
Amendment
No. 3 to Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed March 17, 2023
Prospectus
Summary
The
Offering, page 9
1.
We
note your response to our prior comment 2 and your revised disclosure on page 9 which states
that the selling shareholders will be able to sell their Ordinary Shares “following
their respective lock-up periods.” However, page 130 continues to state that the selling
shareholders “are not subject to lock-up agreements.” Please reconcile throughout
both the primary and resale prospectus. In the event the selling shareholders are, in fact,
subject to lock-up periods, please include this information in the resale
prospectus.
Response: The Company respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has accordingly revised pages 37 and 130 of the Amendment.
Management
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, page 45
2.
We
note your response to prior comment 3. We further note that you added disclosure that “Cumulatively, through March 1, 2023,
approximately 24% of total units ordered were from related parties.” Please revise your filing to quantify your total orders
for the period July 1, 2022 to March 1, 2023 and separately quantify the amount of orders from related parties.
Response: The Company respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has accordingly revised pages 1, 4, 45, 46, 59, 62, Alt-1 and Alt-4 of the Amendment.
Critical
Accounting Estimates and Judgments
Revenue
Growth and the Recoverability Rate of Intangible Assets, page 56
3.
We
note from your revised disclosure in response to prior comment 4 that intangible assets comprised approximately 87% of the company’s
assets. This does not appear mathematically accurate given that as of June 30, 2022, your intangible assets were AU$ 22.7 million
and your total assets were AU$ 23.4 million. Please revise your filing accordingly.
Response: The Company respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that the correct calculation of the intangible asset as a percentage of the
Company’s total assets as of June 30, 2022 was 97%. Accordingly, the Company has revised page 56 of the Amendment.
Financial
Statements, page F-1
4.
We
note from your disclosures on page F-16 that your financial statements are presented in Australian dollars. Additionally we note
that when presenting Australian dollars you have used the currency abbreviations AUD, AUD$, AU$, A$ and $. When referring to United
States dollars you have used various currency abbreviations including $. In order for investors to clearly determine the currencies
presented, please revise your filing to define and present all currency abbreviations in a consistent manner. Ensure that your revised
presentation does not use the same currency symbol for different currencies.
Response:
The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has accordingly revised the Amendment.
Exhibits
5.
We
note that the legal opinion filed as Exhibit 5.1 does not opine as to the validity of the Resale Shares. Please revise. See Section
II.B.2.h. of Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19.
Response: The Company
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has filed an updated legal opinion by the Company’s Australian legal
counsel, Morgan-Smith Legal Pty Ltd, as Exhibit 5.1 to the Amendment, which opines as to the validity of the Resale Shares.
General
6.
Please
revise the cover pages of both the primary and resale prospectuses to clearly state, if true, that selling shareholders may not commence
their resale of shares until after the IPO closes. If this is not the case, please clarify.
Response:
The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has accordingly revised the cover pages of both the primary and
resale prospectuses included in the Amendment.
