EXPLANATORY NOTE
Post Reverse Stock Split - The Plan
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 is being
filed by Next Technology Holding Inc. (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) to register additional shares of Common
Stock of the Company, with no par value (the “Common Stock”) under the Next Technology Holding Inc. 2025 Equity Incentive
Plan (the “Plan”) as a result of the proportionately reduced number of undistributed shares registered by the Prior S-8 (as
defined below) due to the Reverse Stock Split (as defined below) effected after the Prior S-8.
The Registrant previously filed a Registration
Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-288503) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on July 3, 2025,
registering 80,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan (the “Prior S-8”).
On September 16, 2025, the Registrant effectuated
a 200-for-1 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its Common Stock. Pursuant to Rule 416(b) of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, if prior to completion of the distribution of the securities covered by a registration statement, all the securities
of a class which includes the registered securities are combined by a reverse split into a lesser amount of securities of the same class,
the amount of undistributed securities of such class deemed to be covered by the registration statement shall be proportionately reduced.
Immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split, 70,000,000 shares of Common Stock had been issued to awardees under the Plan and 10,000,000
shares of Common Stock remained available for future issuance. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of undistributed shares
deemed covered by the Prior S-8 was reduced to 50,000 shares. Accordingly, this Registration Statement on Form S-8 is being filed to register
additional 9,950,000 shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Plan.
Pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8,
this Registration Statement is being filed for the purpose of registering additional securities of the same class as other securities
for which a Registration Statement of the Company on Form S-8 relating to the Plan, is effective, and the Company’s Registration
Statements on Form S-8 (File No. 333-288503) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
on July 3, 2025, registering shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement,
except as supplemented by the information set forth below.

Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers
or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually
or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which
was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus
filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in
the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration
Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information
in the Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and
(a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the undersigned registrant
pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability
under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes
that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the undersigned registrant’s annual report
pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s
annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be
deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the undersigned registrant pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the undersigned registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the undersigned registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the undersigned registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the undersigned registrant will, unless in the opinion
of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities
Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form
S-8 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in Hong
Kong Special Administrative Region, China, on this day of September 29, 2025.
