1.We note in your response to prior comment
1 that it appears you intend to expense the value of the warrants under each market or stock exchange listing of your Ordinary Shares
scenario. Since your response indicates these warrants were issued in exchange for professional services received in connection with your
planned offering, please tell us how you considered recording the value of the warrants as an offering cost to be charged against equity
upon successful completion of your offering. We refer you to IAS 32 paragraph 37.
Response: In response to the Staff’s
comments, we respectfully advise the Staff that upon reviewing IAS 32, paragraph 37, we have considered the following:
The professional services provided by V Capital
Quantum Sdn Bhd. and CNP Equity Limited, in exchange for which the warrants were issued, are integral to the successful completion of
our IPO. These services include financial, and regulatory advisory work that directly contributes to this offering. Therefore, we record
this cost as charged against equity according to IAS 32, paragraph 37. This approach ensures that our financial statements accurately
reflect the costs incurred in connection with the equity issuance.
The professional services fees of V Capital Quantum
Sdn Bhd. and CNP Equity Limited have been reliably measured, and align with the value of the warrants of $172,500 and $666,000, respectively.
The professional services fees are charge based on the service rates that V Capital Quantum Sdn Bhd. and CNP Equity Limited offer to other
clients. The warrants issued were valued by a third party valuer. The valuation was conducted using the Trinomial Option Pricing Model
(TOPM), and the results are as follows:
