Stock listing and capital markets activity
Samfine Creation Holdings Group Limited’s ordinary shares trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol SFHG. The company completed an initial public offering (IPO) of its ordinary shares, with the ordinary shares beginning trading on Nasdaq on October 15, 2024 under the symbol SFHG. The company has disclosed that the aggregate gross proceeds from the IPO were raised through the sale of ordinary shares at a fixed offering price, and that the underwriters were granted an over-allotment option which was later exercised in full, increasing the total number of ordinary shares sold.
In its public statements, Samfine has indicated that the net proceeds from the offering are intended to be used for strengthening its operating subsidiaries’ printing business in Hong Kong, expanding market presence in other international markets (in particular the U.S.), purchasing machinery and upgrading production equipment to enhance the level of automation, and for additional working capital and general corporate purposes. These stated uses of proceeds highlight the company’s emphasis on improving its printing capacity and efficiency and on broadening its reach through its existing customer relationships.
Financial reporting and currency
Samfine reports its financial results in Hong Kong dollars (HKD). In its interim and other financial disclosures, the company often provides translations of HKD amounts into U.S. dollars for the convenience of readers, using specified exchange rates published by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of particular dates. The company notes that these translations are for reference only and do not represent assurances that amounts could be converted at those rates.
The company files unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, as well as consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), statements of changes in shareholders’ equity, and statements of cash flows. These filings provide details on revenue, cost of revenue, gross profit, operating expenses such as selling and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses, other income and expenses, income tax, net income or loss, and foreign currency translation adjustments. They also outline cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, including purchases of plant and equipment, borrowings and repayments, and changes in working capital.
Nasdaq listing compliance and corporate governance
Samfine Creation Holdings Group Limited has disclosed interactions with Nasdaq regarding the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The company received a notification letter from Nasdaq stating that, based on the closing bid price of its ordinary shares over a specified period, it did not meet the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Nasdaq provided an initial 180-day compliance period for the company to regain compliance.
Subsequently, the company reported that Nasdaq granted a further 180-day extension, until March 23, 2026, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. Samfine has stated that it is monitoring the closing bid price of its ordinary shares and intends to seek to regain compliance within the extension period. The company has also noted that, if it cannot demonstrate compliance by the end of the extension period, Nasdaq staff will notify the company that its ordinary shares are subject to delisting. These disclosures illustrate the regulatory framework under which SFHG shares trade and the conditions that must be met to maintain the listing.
In addition, the company has reported a change of auditor. Effective August 21, 2025, Samfine appointed FundCertify CPA Professional Corporation as its independent registered public accounting firm, replacing WWC, P.C. The company stated that the decision to change auditors was approved by its board of directors and that there were no disagreements with the former auditor on accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, and no reportable events as defined in the relevant SEC rules.
Share capital and corporate structure
Samfine’s filings describe its share capital structure. As of certain reporting dates, the company had ordinary shares with a specified par value authorized and issued. In later periods, the company’s share capital is described as comprising Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares with the same par value, with a stated number of authorized and issued shares for each class. The company also reports additional paid-in capital, statutory reserve, accumulated other comprehensive income, and retained earnings or accumulated losses as components of shareholders’ equity.
The transition to a structure including Class A and Class B ordinary shares is reflected in the company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements, which show the number of shares issued and outstanding for each class and the corresponding amounts.
