32、old.htm3/249 You are specifically cautioned that there are significant legal and operational risks associated with having substantially all of our operations in China,including risks related to the legal,political and economic policies of the Chinese government,the relations between China and the Un
33、ited States,and applicablePRC and United States regulations,which risks could result in a material change in our operations and/or cause the value of our securities to significantly declineor become worthless and affect Boqii Holding Limiteds ability to offer or continue to offer its securities to i
34、nvestors.Moreover,the Chinese regulatoryauthorities may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene in or influence our PRC subsidiaries operationsat any time.Recent statements by the Chinese regulatory authorities indicate an intent to strengthen
35、 oversight and control over offerings conducted overseasand/or foreign investment in China-based issuers,including without limitation,the cybersecurity review and regulatory review requirements for overseas listingby Chinese companies,whether or not through an offshore holding company.The PRC regula
36、tory authorities also initiated a series of actions and statements toregulate business operations in China,including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market,enhancing supervision over China-based companieslisted overseas,adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity
37、 reviews,and expanding efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement.Furthermore,VIEstructures pose risks to U.S.investors that are not present in other organizational structures.For example,exerting control through contractual arrangements maybe less effective than direct equity ownership,and a company may
38、incur substantial costs to enforce the terms of the arrangements,including those relating to thedistribution of funds among the entities.Further,the Chinese government could determine that the agreements establishing the VIE structure do not comply withChinese law and regulations,including those rel
39、ated to restrictions on foreign ownership,which could subject us to penalties,revocation of business andoperating licenses,or forfeiture of ownership interests.On February 17,2023,the China Securities Regulatory Commission(“CSRC”)promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas SecuritiesOf
40、fering and Listing by Domestic Companies(the“Trial Measures”)and five supporting guidelines(collectively,the“Overseas Listing Rules”),which came intoeffect on March 31,2023.Notwithstanding the foregoing,as of the date of this prospectus,according to our PRC counsel,Guangdong Shenmou Law Firm,norelev
41、ant PRC laws or regulations in effect require that we obtain permission from any PRC authorities to issue securities to foreign investors,and we have notreceived any inquiry,notice,warning,sanction,or any regulatory objection to this offering from the CSRC,the CAC,or any other PRC authorities that h
42、avejurisdiction over our operations.See“Risk FactorsRisks Related to Doing Business in China”for a discussion of these legal and operational risks that shouldbe considered before making a decision to purchase our securities.Furthermore,as more stringent standards have been imposed by the U.S.Securit
43、ies and Exchange Commission(the“SEC”)and the Public CompanyAccounting Oversight Board(the“PCAOB”)recently,Boqii Holding Limiteds securities may be prohibited from trading if our auditor cannot be fully inspected.Pursuant to the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act(the“HFCA Act”)enacted in 2020,
44、if the auditor of a U.S.listed companys financial statements isnot subject to PCAOB inspections for three consecutive“non-inspection”years,the SEC is required to prohibit the securities of such issuer from being traded ona U.S.national securities exchange,such as the New York Stock Exchange(the“NYSE
45、)and Nasdaq,or in U.S.over-the-counter markets.On December 23,2022,the U.S.Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act,and on December 29,2022,legislation entitled“ConsolidatedAppropriations Act,2023”(the“Consolidated Appropriations Act”)was signed into law,which contain
46、ed,among other things,an identical provision to theAccelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act and amended the HFCA Act by requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuers securities from trading onany U.S.stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive year
47、s instead of three,thus reducing the time period fortriggering the prohibition on trading.On December 16,2021,the PCAOB issued its determination(the“Determination Report”)that the PCAOB is unable toinspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in China,beca
48、use of positions taken by authorities in the jurisdiction,and the PCAOB included in the report of its determination a list of the accounting firms that are headquartered in China.This list does not include our auditor,Marcum Asia CPAs LLP.On August 26,2022,the CSRC,the Ministry of Finance of the PRC
49、(the“MOF”),and the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol(the“Protocol”)governing inspections and investigations of accounting firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong,taking the first step toward opening accessfor the PCAOB to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartere
50、d in mainland China and Hong Kong.Pursuant to the fact sheet withrespect to the Protocol disclosed by the SEC,the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has theunfettered ability to transfer information to the SEC.On December 15,2022,t
51、he PCAOB made a statement announcing that it was able,in 2022,to inspect andinvestigate completely issuer audit engagements of PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong.However,uncertainties still exist as to whether the PCAOB will have continued access f
52、or complete inspections and investigations in the future.The PCAOB has indicatedthat it will act immediately to consider the need to issue new determinations with the HFCA Act if needed.2025/5/10 23:55sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1815021/000121390025041577/ea0241440-f1a1_boqiihold.htmhttps:/www.sec.g

54、bject to the PCAOBs determinations,in the event it is later determined that thePCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely our auditor because of a position taken by an authority in a jurisdiction outside the United States,then suchlack of inspection could cause our securities to be deliste
55、d from the stock exchange.See“Risk FactorsRisks Related to Doing Business in ChinaTrading inour securities will be prohibited under the HFCAA if the PCAOB determines that it is unable to inspect or investigate completely our registered publicaccounting firm and as a result,U.S.national securities ex
56、changes,such as the NYSE American,may determine to delist our securities.”We cannot assure youthat regulatory agencies will not apply additional or more stringent requirements to us.Such uncertainty could cause the market price of our securities to bematerially and adversely affected.Remittance of d
57、ividends by a wholly foreign-owned company out of China is subject to examination by the banks designated by State Administration ofForeign Exchange(“SAFE”).Accordingly,there are limitations on the ability of us,our subsidiaries,or the consolidated VIEs by the PRC government to transfercash.Our PRC
58、subsidiaries have not paid dividends and will not be able to pay dividends until they generate accumulated profits and meet the requirements forstatutory reserve funds.For PRC and United States federal income tax considerations in connection with an investment in our shares,see“Taxation.”Under our c
59、urrent corporate structure,to fund any liquidity requirements an entity in our corporate group may have,a subsidiary may rely on loans orpayments from Boqii Holding Limited and Boqii Holding Limited may receive distributions or cash transfers from our subsidiaries.Additionally,the transfer offunds a
60、nd assets between Boqii Holding Limited and its subsidiaries is not subject to any Chinese currency exchange restrictions,but there is no assurance thatthe PRC government will not intervene in or impose restrictions on the ability of Boqii Holding Limited and its subsidiaries to transfer cash or ass
61、ets.Wecurrently have no cash management policies that dictate how funds are transferred between us,our subsidiaries,the consolidated VIEs,or investors.SeeProspectus Summary Our History and Corporate Structure.As of the date of this prospectus,during the past three completed fiscal years,none of ours
62、ubsidiaries have made any dividends or distributions to Boqii Holding Limited and neither has Boqii Holding Limited made any dividends or distributions to itsshareholders or subsidiaries.To date,no transfers,dividends,or distributions have been made to or from the VIEs.For further information,see th
63、e condensedconsolidating schedule and the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 20-F.To the extent cash in the business is in the PRC/Hong Kongor a PRC/Hong Kong entity,the funds may not be available to fund operations or for other use outside of the PRC/Hong Kong due to int
64、erventions in or theimposition of restrictions and limitations on the ability of us,our subsidiaries,or the consolidated VIEs by the PRC government to transfer cash.See RiskFactors Risks Related to our Corporate Structure and Contractual Arrangements.We intend to keep any future earnings to finance
65、the expansion of ourbusiness,and we do not anticipate any cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.If Boqii Holding Limited determines to pay dividends on any of itsordinary shares in the future,as a holding company,it may derive funds for such distribution from its own cash position or
66、 contributions from its subsidiaries.Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk.Before buying any securities,you should carefully read the discussion of material risksof investing in our securities in“Risk Factors”beginning on page 28 of this prospectus and in the documents incorpora

78、l statementsand the related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.In addition to this summary,we urge you to read the entire prospectus carefully especially therisks of investing in the ADSs discussed under“Risk Factors,”“Business,”and information contained in“Managements Discussion and Analy
79、sis of FinancialCondition and Results of Operations”before deciding whether to buy the ADSs.Investors should note that Boqii Holding Limited,our ultimate CaymanIslands holding company,does not directly own any substantive business operations in the PRC and our businesses in the PRC described in this
80、 prospectus areoperated primarily through the VIEs.OUR BUSINESS Our Vision Our vision is to connect people and pets.Our Mission Boqii was founded for the love of pets.With this belief,we are inspired to empower the pet ecosystem and instill love and trust into pet parenting.Our Journey and Opportuni
81、ty You may have heard about“pet humanization”a growing worldwide trend that represents a natural extension of humans taking care of themselvesto the well-being of their pets.Over fifteen years ago,we set out to build Boqii with the simple goal of connecting Chinas fast-growing“1st generation”ofpet p
82、arents who were taking more interest in the wellness and happiness of their pets.Pets cannot speak,so their owners need to turn to someone who has the relevant experience.According to Frost&Sullivan,education on pet parentsis particularly important due to high percentage of first generation pet pare
83、nts.With this idea,our online community soon became a rich and reliable source ofinformation to those who were often more overwhelmed than informed by torrents of inconsistent reviews of pet foods or pulling their hair out when their petshad a cold or allergy.As we attracted more users to our commun
84、ity,we began to think about ways to help them get exactly what they were looking foreverything frompet foods to toys,vitamins to shampoos.It did not take us long to create the first pet-focused online retailer in China.When we launched online retail in 2008,our goal was not just to attract one-time
85、shoppers but to turn them into lifelong customersthrough providing a truly tailored shopping experience where theywould never dream of shopping elsewhere.At the core of our retail model is to provide an engaging and inspiring shopping destination that any genericretailer is not,through our deep unde
86、rstanding of the connections that pet parents have with their pets.As we continue to grow and evolve,we came to realize that pet parents would ultimately gravitate towards one destination,driving brands,physicalpet stores and pet hospitals to the same place,a pet ecosystem that has already amassed a
87、 vast,loyal user base with abilities to enable and benefit the entirevalue chain.We believe this is bound to happen because it is what customers expect and demand.With this belief,we began to envision fostering a pet ecosystem around our online sales platforms and expanding offline network.During th
88、e threeyears ended March 31,2024 and the six months ended September 30,2024,we had built close relationships with over 766 brand partners and a large base ofphysical pet stores and pet hospitals,by making their products and services more accessible and appealing to the growing base of young pet pare
89、nts in China.Through our brand influence and proprietary technology,we have also began to digitally connect and empower an extensive,growing network of physical petstores and pet hospitals.12025/5/10 23:55sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1815021/000121390025041577/ea0241440-f1a1_boqiihold.htmhttps:/www.s

91、the entire pet industry in China to thrive.Boqii at a Glance Boqii is a leading pet-focused platform in China.We offer a truly one-stop destination that pet parents in China may go to get everything they needfor their pets and share their passion for pet parenting.They come to Boqii to discover the
92、best pet products for their pets,share their most memorable petraising stories,and find ways to make their pets healthier and happier.With our purpose-built platforms,we are reshaping how pet parents in China engagewith their pets-by educating and inspiring them to become better pet parents,helping
93、them find what their pets need,and bringing them a unique shoppingexperience.We believe you will love Boqii if you love pets.With online sales platforms at its core,we extend our reach offline to connect and empower otherparticipants in the pet value chain,including brand partners,manufacturers of p
94、et products,physical pet stores and pet hospitals,and pet-related contentproviders.We operate a leading pet-focused online retail business in Chinas pet market in terms of GMV.During the three years ended March 31,2022,2023,2024 and the six months end September 30,2024,we connected a total of 766 br
95、and partners with pet parents in China.We are redefining e-commerce for petparents by providing an accessible,personalized and enjoyable shopping experience based on a deep understanding of our users and customers and their petsby leveraging extensive user interactions and transactional behaviors we
96、 have observed over the years.We create and continue to develop our private brands,including Yoken,Mocare and two“D-cat”labels,with compelling quality and prices.Users and customers come to shop on Boqii because we offer them ahighquality,high-touch experience with access to approximately 19,946 SKU
97、s as of September 30,2024.During the three years ended 2022,2023,March 31,2024 and the six months end September 30,2024,we delivered an aggregate of approximately 29.2 million orders to our users and customers.We have a large pet-focused online community in Chinas pet market.For the year ended March
98、 31,2024 and the six months end September 30,2024,we had approximately 5.3 million and 2.0 million active buyers,respectively.We deeply understand and care about our users and customers and theirpets.We engage with our users and customers through shopping,content,social media,and offline events,spur
99、ring interactions in a way that traditionalretailers do not.On top of extensive interactions and transactional behaviors we have observed,we have developed a profound understanding of who our usersand customers are,what they are keen to buy for their pets,how they communicate with other pet parents,
100、and what content they resonate with.Our richcontent not only guides users and customers along their shopping journey,but also becomes a trusted source for discovery and inspiration for all pet lovers.We generate revenues primarily from transactions completed on our online sales platforms and sales t

153、ion services.Boqii is an exempted company with limited liability incorporated in the Cayman Islands and our wholly owned PRC subsidiariesare currently considered foreign-invested enterprise.Accordingly,our PRC subsidiaries are not eligible to provide value-added telecommunication services inChina or
154、 import veterinary drugs.To ensure strict compliance with the PRC laws and regulations,we conduct such business activities through the VIEs,Suzhou Taicheng,Shanghai Guangcheng,Nanjing Xingmu and Suzhou Xingyun.Shanghai Xincheng,Xingmu WFOE and Meiyizhi WFOE,our whollyowned subsidiaries in China,have
155、 entered into a series of contractual arrangements with the VIEs and their respective shareholders,which enable us to(i)direct the activities of the VIEs,(ii)receive substantially all of the economic benefits of the VIEs,and(iii)have an exclusive option to purchase all or part ofthe equity interests
156、 in the VIEs when and to the extent permitted by PRC law.These contractual arrangements include the exclusive consultation and technicalservice agreement,loan agreements,equity pledge agreement,exclusive purchase option agreement,shareholder voting right trust agreement,and spousalconsents,as the ca
157、se may be.The contractual arrangements with the VIEs may be less effective than direct ownership and the Company may incur substantialcosts to enforce the terms of the arrangements.There are uncertainties regarding the status of the rights of the Cayman Islands holding company with respectto its con
158、tractual arrangements with the VIEs,its founders and owners,and the Company may face challenges enforcing these contractual agreements due tolegal uncertainties and jurisdictional limits.Under our current corporate structure,to fund any liquidity requirements an entity in our corporate group may hav
159、e,a subsidiary may rely on loansor payments from Boqii Holding Limited and Boqii Holding Limited may receive distributions or cash transfers from our subsidiaries.To date,none of oursubsidiaries have made any dividends or distributions to Boqii Holding Limited and neither has Boqii Holding Limited m
160、ade any dividends or distributions toits shareholders or subsidiaries.We intend to keep any future earnings to finance the expansion of our business,and we do not anticipate any cash dividendswill be paid in the foreseeable future.We currently have no cash management policies that dictate how funds
161、are transferred between us,our subsidiaries,theconsolidated VIEs,or investors.As a Cayman Islands holding company,we conduct our operations primarily through our subsidiaries and the consolidated VIEs.The ability totransfer cash or distribute earnings between us,our subsidiaries,and the VIEs is subj
162、ect to significant legal and regulatory restrictions imposed by PRC lawsand regulations.The PRC government imposes strict controls on the convertibility of the Renminbi(RMB)into foreign currencies and,in certain cases,theremittance of currency out of China.Under current PRC foreign exchange regulati
163、ons,payments of current account items,including profit distributions,interest payments,and trade-and service-related foreign exchange transactions,can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval of the StateAdministration of Foreign Exchange(SAFE)by complying with certain procedural require
164、ments.However,approval from or registration with appropriategovernment authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital account items such as therepayment of foreign currency-denominated loans,direct investment overseas,and investmen
165、ts in securities or derivative products outside of the PRC.PRClaws and regulations to provide funding from the proceeds of offshore fundraising activities to PRC subsidiaries only through loans or capital contributions,and to VIEs only through loans,in each case subject to the satisfaction of applic
166、able government registration and approval requirements.The ability to settleamounts owed under the VIE agreements is subject to the same PRC foreign exchange controls and regulatory restrictions that apply to dividend distributionsand other cross-border transfers.72025/5/10 23:55sec.gov/Archives/edg

258、00121390025041577/ea0241440-f1a1_boqiihold.htm26/249 In the opinion our PRC counsel:the ownership structures of the VIEs do not contravene any PRC laws or regulations currently in effect;and the agreements under the contractual arrangements among Shanghai Xincheng,Shanghai Guangcheng and their respe
259、ctive shareholders,amongXingmu WFOE,Nanjing Xingmu and their respective shareholders,among Meiyizhi WFOE,Suzhou Xingyun and their respective shareholders,as well as among Shanghai Xincheng,Suzhou Taicheng and their respective shareholders governed by PRC laws are valid and binding uponeach party to
260、such agreements and enforceable against each party thereto in accordance with their terms and applicable PRC laws andregulations currently in effect.In March 2019,the National Peoples Congress of the PRC adopted the PRC Foreign Investment Law,which became effective on January 1,2020.Among other thin
261、gs,the PRC Foreign Investment Law defines the“foreign investment”as investment activities in China by foreign investors in a direct orindirect manner,including those circumstances explicitly listed thereunder as establishing new projects or foreign invested enterprises or acquiring shares ofenterpri
262、ses in China,and other approaches of investment as stipulated by laws,administrative regulations or otherwise regulated by the State Council.ThePRC Foreign Investment Law does not specify whether foreign investors controlling PRC onshore variable interest entities via contractual arrangements willbe
263、 recognized as“foreign investment”and thus be subject to the restrictions and/or prohibitions on foreign investments.Accordingly,the PRC regulatoryauthorities may in the future take a view that is contrary to the above opinion of our PRC counsel.If future laws and regulations specify that the VIEagr
264、eements are in violation of relevant PRC laws and regulations and the PRC government accordingly finds that the VIE agreements that establish thestructure for operating our podcasts,audio entertainment and other internet related businesses or for importing veterinary drugs do not comply with PRCgove
265、rnment restrictions on foreign investment in certain industries,such as value-added telecommunications services business,our ADSs may decline invalue or become worthless,we could be subject to severe penalties,including being prohibited from continuing operations.Each permission or approval thatwe,o
266、ur subsidiaries,or the VIEs may be required to obtain from Chinese authorities to operate our business and to offer the securities being registered toforeign investors is described herein.As of the date of this prospectus,according to our PRC counsel,no relevant PRC laws or regulations in effect req
267、uirethat we obtain permission from any PRC authorities to issue securities to foreign investors,and we have not received any inquiry,notice,warning,sanction,or any regulatory objection to this offering from the CSRC,the CAC,or any other PRC authorities that have jurisdiction over our operations.If w
268、e,oursubsidiaries,or the VIEs do not receive or maintain such permissions or approvals,inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required,or if applicable laws,regulations,or interpretations change and we are required to obtain such permissions or approvals in the future,we m

274、Americas Surface Transportation Act of 2015),or the JOBS Act.An emerginggrowth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies.These provisions include exemption from the auditor attestation requirement unde
275、r Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002,or Section 404,in theassessment of the emerging growth companys internal control over financial reporting.The JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company doesnot need to comply with any new or revised financial accounting standards until suc
276、h date that a private company is otherwise required to comply with suchnew or revised accounting standards.We do not plan to“opt out”of such exemptions afforded to an emerging growth company.We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of(i)the last day of our fiscal year during whic
