Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client, AlphaTime
Acquisition Corp. (“ATMC”) and HCYC Holding Company (“HCYC”), represented by Celine & Partners,
PLLC, we are writing to submit responses to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) of the Division of Corporation
Finance of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) set forth in its letter, dated
June 2, 2025, relating to HCYC’s Amendment No. 3 to Registration Statement on Form F-4 filed May 6, 2025.
HCYC is filing via EDGAR Amendment
No. 4 to Registration Statement on Form F-4, which reflects responses to the comments received by the Staff and certain updated information.
We have set forth below the comments
in the Staff’s letter, in bold, and the responses thereto.
Amendment No. 3 to Registration Statement on Form
F-4
General
1. Please
update your registration statement throughout to provide disclosure as of a recent date.
As examples only, we note that your beneficial ownership tables on pages 183 and 184 are
as of January 4, 2024. Similarly, it appears that your related party transactions section
has not been updated to include new related party transactions listed in Note 4 to the financial
statements on page F-50.
Response: We acknowledge the Staff’s
comment and advise the Staff that at the disclosure on pages 183, 184 and F-36 have been revised to address the Staff’s
comment.
2. Based
on your disclosure on page F-50 it appears that there may be an outstanding loan to Mr. Kwok
Wai Man, Chief Executive Officer of HCYC HK. Please tell us if there are outstanding loans
to be paid off by your officers or directors and if so if the loans will be paid off prior
to completion of the merger.
Response:
We acknowledge the Staff’s comment and confirm that there are no loans to be paid off by HCYC officers or directors to HCYC.
For
the sake of clarity, the related party balances with Mr. Kwok Wai Man that appear on page F-54, represent amounts owed by HCYC to him.
These balances consist of payables for referral services and non-interest-bearing borrowings from Mr. Kwok Wai Man.
3. We
note your disclosure on page F-53 that “[f]or six months ended September 30, 2024,
three customers accounted for approximately 45.5 %, 41.8 % and 12.1 % of the Company’s
total revenue. For the six months ended September 30, 2023, two customers accounted for approximately
81.0 % and 13.4 % of the Company’s total revenue. As of September 30, 2024, two customers’
accounts receivable accounted for 72.2 % and 17.3 % of the total outstanding accounts receivable
balance. Two customers accounted for approximately 63.7 % and 32.9 % of the total accounts
receivable balance as of March 31, 2024.” Please revise your business section and the
risk factor on page 54 to update information related to your customer concentrations.
Response: We acknowledge the Staff’s

note your disclosure that “AlphaTime does not expect to extend the time period to consummate
its initial business combination beyond 36 months from the closing of the IPO (any such extension
would be made in compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5101-2(d)).” We also note that you are
currently listed on Nasdaq and that Nasdaq Rule 5815 was amended effective October 7, 2024
to provide for the immediate suspension and delisting upon issuance of a delisting determination
letter for failure to meet the requirement in Nasdaq Rule IM 5101-2(b) to complete one or
more business combinations within 36 months of the date of effectiveness of its IPO registration
statement. Please revise to state that your securities will face immediate suspension and
delisting action once you receive a delisting determination letter from Nasdaq after the
36-month window ends on December 30, 2025.
Response: We acknowledge the Staff’s
comment and advise the Staff that at the disclosure on page 47 has been revised to address the Staff’s comment.
