comment(s).
Please respond to this letter by providing the requested information and either

Amendment No. 4 to Draft Registration Statement on Form F-1
Cover Page
Refer to your response to prior comment 1 in which you state Mr. Yuen Yuk, Hau’s
personal settlement of the dividend entitlements of other shareholders using his own
financial resources was a private arrangement and was not undertaken by you or on
your behalf. You stated in your response to comment 2 in your letter dated March 31,
2025 that other shareholders’ entitlement to the dividends declared were used for
offsetting the amounts due from Mr. Yuen Yuk, Hau and Accolade IP Limited. From
your disclosures and responses, aggregate dividends declared in fiscal 2023 and fiscal 1.

2024 is $2,600,704, of which an aggregate of $86,539 was paid, leaving aggregate
dividends unpaid of $2,514,165. Your responses and disclosures state the total unpaid
dividends declared were offset against receivables from two related parties - Mr. Yuen
Yuk, Hau and Accolade IP Limited. At the time the dividends were declared, it
appears Mr. Yuen Yuk, Hau was the only common director of Accolade IP Limited,
based on your disclosures Mr. Cheung Po, Lui was not appointed a director of
Accolade IP Limited nor became a director/executive of Acco Group Holdings
Limited until after June 30, 2024. Therefore, it appears Mr. Yuen Yuk, Hau, and not
all shareholders, was the sole beneficiary of the unpaid dividends and related offset.
Please tell us all of the shareholders of record related to the dividends declared in each
of fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024, those that received cash for their dividend declaration,
and those for which their entitlement to dividends declared were used for offsetting
amounts due from Mr. Yuen Yuk, Hau and Accolade IP Limited as you stated. Also,
explain to us why an obligation of the company for dividends declared that was settled
by a party other than the company has no accounting impact on the company. If
dividends declared were solely for the benefit of one related party, explain to us why
this is not considered to be compensation to that related party.
Please contact Keira Nakada at 202-551-3659 or Doug Jones at 202-551-3309 if you
have questions regarding comments on the financial statements and related matters. Please
contact Jenny O'Shanick at 202-551-8005 or Evan Ewing at 202-551-5920 with any other
questions.
Sincerely,
Division of Corporation Finance
