File No. 333-282566
Dear Andresian D’Rozario:
We have reviewed your amended registration statement and have the following
comment(s).
Please respond to this letter by amending your registration statement and providing
the requested information. If you do not believe a comment applies to your facts and
circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your
response.
After reviewing any amendment to your registration statement and the information
you provide in response to this letter, we may have additional comments.
Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed November 20, 2024
Risk Factors, page 10
1.Please resolve the inconsistency between the estimated as adjusted net tangible book
value of $0.70 per share cited in the first paragraph on page 17, and the corresponding
figure of $0.63 per share shown in the dilution table on page 32.
Capitalization, page 31
Please revise your introductory points to more clearly describe the pro forma, and the
pro forma as adjusted scenarios, to include a description of the adjustments reflected
therin. For example, we understand that your pro forma scenario would reflect
adjustments associated with the reorganization, and that your pro forma as adjusted
scenario would also reflect adjustments associated with the offering.2.

Please also modify the "Adjusted Pro Forma " column label to read "Pro Forma As
Adjusted" so that this will align with your references to this scenario, and revise your
line item notations as necessary to reflect information for each of the actual, pro
forma, and pro forma as adjusted scenarios.
For example, it appears that your description of ordinary shares should indicate there
was just one share outstanding on an actual basis (based on your audited financial
statements), 28,000,000 shares outstanding on a pro forma basis (reflecting the
reorganization), and 31,250,000 shares outstanding on a pro forma as adjusted basis
(reflecting both the reorganization and the initial public offering).

Executive Officers and Directors, page 64
3.Please revise the biographical information provided for your director nominee, Jensen
Per Juul, to describe his business experience during the past five years. Refer to Item
401(e) of Regulation S-K.
Financial Statements, page F-1
4.We note that you have appropriately identified the financial statements and related
notes on pages F-3 through F-26 as combined financial statements, and notes to
combined financial statements, and on page F-8 you have identified the two enties for
which the accounts have been combined in this presentation as Vantage Shipbrokers
Pte. Ltd. (Singapore) and Vantage Nexus Commercial Brokers Co. L.L.C. (Dubai).
As such, the labeling that you have included on pages F-3 through F-7, identifying the
financial statements as "Vantage Corp and its Subsidiaries" is not consistent as it
refers to the entity to which the operations are intended to be contributed, and it
implies a parent-subsidiary relationship and consolidated financial presentation.
Therefore, it appears that you should replace the labels "Vantage Corp and its
Subsidiaries" on pages F-3 through F-7, and any corresponding references to these
financial statements elsewhere in the filing, with “Vantage Shipbrokers Pte. Ltd.
(Singapore) and Vantage Nexus Commercial Brokers Co L.L.C. (Dubai).” Please also
ask your auditors to similarly revise the references to these financial statements in
the audit opinion on page F-2, and in the auditor consent at Exhibit 23.1.
General
We understand from your disclosure on page II-1 that you may have completed the
reorganization on October 15, 2024, with the issuance of 7,633,620 Class A Ordinary
Shares and 20,366,379 Class B Ordinary Shares to the shareholders of Vantage BVI
(including Ho Ying Keat Lowell, Andresian D’Rozario, Francis Junior James, Randy
Yong Choon Hong, and Quah Choong Hua, and other shareholders). 5.

Unless there are other aspects of the reorganization that are yet to occur, it appears
that you woud need to revise disclosures throughout your filing to clearly convey that
the reorganization occurred on October 15, 2024, or to otherwise provide an update
regarding the status of the reorganization.
As part of your revisions, please update the reorganization disclosure on page F-7 and
your capitalization disclosure on page 31. In addition, please clarify how the Class A
and Class B Ordinary Shares were apportioned among the minority shareholders and
the five principal shareholders listed above.
