File No. 333-270675
Dear Mr. Nalbantian and Ms. Ransom:
We have set forth below responses
to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) contained in
its letter of May 18, 2023 with respect to the Amendment No.1 to the Registration Statement on Form F-4 (the “F-4/A”) filed
with the SEC on April 28, 2023 by Able View Global Inc. (the “Company”). Please note that all references of the page numbers
in the responses refer to those of the Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form F-4 (the “F-4/A No.2”) filed
with the SEC concurrently with the submission of this letter.
For your convenience, each
of the responses by the Company to the Staff’s comments is set forth in bold below, following each comment.
Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form F-4 Filed April
28, 2023
Questions and Answers About the Proposals, page 29
1. We note your response to comment 4. Please explain to us why you believe presenting the “total pro
forma equity value post-redemption” measure provides meaningful information to an investor. Please also explain to us why it is
reasonable to value Able View Global Inc.’s common stock using the redemption price of HMAC Public Shares.
COMPANY RESPONSE:
In response to the Staff’s comment, we deleted the line item of “total pro forma equity value post-redemption” on page
37 to avoid misunderstanding to our investors.
Summary of Financial Information, page 136
2. We note your response to comment 34 from our letter dated January 26, 2023, and we reissue in part. Now
that financial data is available for the year ended December 31, 2022, please revise this section to discuss whether and how performance
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 has differed compared to estimated results and explain the reason(s) for any differences in
performance.
COMPANY RESPONSE: In response to
Staff’s comment, the Company has revised the footnote to the “2022” column of the projections table on page 136 of the
F-4/A No.2 to illustrate the reasons why the actual operating results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 are lower than the previously
projected results based on the management’s estimates.
Index to Consolidated Financial Statements, page F-1
3. We note your response to comment 5. We continue to believe that you should include audited financial statements
for Able View Global Inc. pursuant to Item 14(h) of Form F-4 if Able View Global Inc. has been in existence less than a year and has not
yet commenced operations, you may instead include an audited balance sheet that is no more than nine months old.
COMPANY RESPONSE: In
response to the Staff’s comment, we have included the audited financial statements of Able View Global Inc. as of December 31, 2022
to the F-4/A No. 2.
