Re: Papa Medical Inc.
Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1
Filed June 27, 2025
File No. 333-283405
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client, Papa Medical Inc. (the " Company "),
we hereby provide a response to the comments in the letter dated as of July 9, 2025 from the staff (the " Staff ") of
the Division of Corporation Finance of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the " Staff's Letter ") regarding
the above-referenced Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed on June 27, 2025.
Contemporaneously, the Company is submitting an Amendment No. 2 to
the Registration Statement via EDGAR (the " Amended Registration Statement "), which reflects the Company's responses
to the Staff's Letter and updates to the net proceeds and table of fees and expenses. For ease of reference, each comment contained
in the Staff's Letter is printed below and is followed by the Company's response. All page references in the responses set
forth below refer to the page numbers in the Amended Registration Statement.
Draft Registration Statement
on Form S-1
General
1. We note your disclosure on page i stating that this prospectus "contains certain estimates and information concerning [y]our
industry, including market position, market size, and growth rates of the markets in which we participate" and that you "have
not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the data contained in these industry publications and reports." This statement
appears to imply a disclaimer of responsibility for this information in the prospectus. Please either revise this statement to remove
such implication or specifically state that you are liable for all information in the prospectus.
Response: In response to the Staff's
comment, the Company has removed relevant disclosure on page i and page 53 of the Amended Registration Statement.
2. We note from the revisions throughout this amended registration statement that your business has changed from being a "cannabis
dosing solution provider" to "Hemp dosing solution provider." Please expand your disclosure to provide background and reasoning
as to this change. If material, also expand your disclosure in the management's discussion section and other appropriate sections in this
registration statement discussing the reason for this shift as well as consequences, including but not limited to, relaxed/heightened
scrutiny from regulatory bodies, changes to business growth forecasts and/or revenue, expenses incurred as a result of this shift etc.
Response: The
Company respectfully advises the Staff that it has not changed its business, operations, or any of the products it sells in any material
respect since the date of the Company's original registration statement on Form S-1. During the IPO process, the Company engaged
a special regulatory counsel to review the registration statement and advise the Company as to how to correctly disclose from a U.S.
regulatory perspective that the Company sells products derived from federally legal hemp as permitted under the Agriculture Improvement
Act of 2018 and the laws of various states. 1 The Company determined that the use of the umbrella word "cannabis"
as a lay synonym for "hemp" can be confusing in the evolving legal landscape in which we operate. As a result, the Company
revised the description of its business to clarify and correctly describe its business operations as a "Hemp dosing solution provider."
The Company notes
that this editorial change does not reflect, nor does it effect, any change in its underlying business, the products it sells, its
regulatory posture, or its risk profile. The Company does not sell products containing cannabis with a concentration of Delta-9 THC
in excess of 0.3% on a dry weight basis. Accordingly, the Company believes that replacing "cannabis" with
"hemp" in describing its business, enhances the accuracy of its disclosures and investor understanding of its business
operations. As neither the Company's business operations nor products have changed, there are no anticipated changes to its business
growth forecasts and/or revenue as a result of this clarification.
Cover Page
3. Please revise your cover page to identify the name(s) of the lead or managing underwriter(s). See Item 501(b)(8) of Regulation S-K.
Response: In response to the
Staff's comment, the Company has amended the cover page of the Amended Registration Statement to identify the lead
underwriter.
1
The Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (also known as the 2018 Farm Bill) removed hemp from the definition of marijuana as used in the U.S. federal Controlled Substances Act ("CSA"). Hemp and marijuana are both varieties of the cannabis plant. Hemp is defined as "the plant Cannabis sativa L. and any part of that plant, including the seeds thereof and all derivatives, extracts, cannabinoids, isomers, acids, salts, and salts of isomers, whether growing or not, with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis." 7 U.S.C. § 1639(o). The cannabis plant and most products produced from that plant remain controlled substances subject to the CSA, unless they meet the statutory definition of hemp.
