  • Risk Factors - Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could have a material adverse effect on us.” on page 12 and “China’s economic, political and social conditions, as well as changes in any government policies, laws and regulations may be quick with little advance notice and could have a material adverse effect on our business and the value of our securities.” on page 13 of this Annual Report.
  • For instance, as the date of this Annual Report, we are not required to obtain any permission from China authorities nor received any objection or restriction from Chinese authorities to continue listing our securities in U.S. exchanges, however, we cannot guarantee that PRC authorities may not initiate any change in its law, rules or regulations, or governmental policies that would require permission or scrutiny from relevant PRC authorities for our listing; or any law, regulation, rules and policies will become effective and enforceable while we are seeking a target for the initial business combination that could substantially affect our operation and the value of our securities may depreciate quickly or even become worthless.
  • See “Part I - Item 1.- Permission Required from the PRC Authorities for a Business Combination and Relevant PRC Regulations” on page 4.
  • We are subject to risks and uncertainties about future actions of the PRC government or law enforcement to refrain our activities or operation due to the significant ties to China of our sponsor, officers and directors, which could limit our search for a target business and that can cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.
  • We are also currently not required to obtain approval from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, however, if the relevant PRC government agencies decide that we were required to obtain approval and we were denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, we will not be able to continue listing on a U.S. exchange, which would materially affect the interest of our investors.” on page 10 of this Annual Report.
  • Terminated Business Combination Agreement On June 26, 2024, we entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Infintium Fuel Cell Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Pacifica Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Yan (Chris) Feng, solely in his capacity as representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of the Infintium Securityholders (the “Securityholder Representative,” and, together with Infintium, Goldenstone and Merger Sub, the “Parties”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Infintium (the “Merger”), with Infintium surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Goldenstone.
  • Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, as amended, the Agreement could be terminated by either the Company or Infintium if the transactions contemplated by the Agreement were not consummated by September 30, 2025.
  • By letter dated October 1, 2025, Infintium informed the Company that it was exercising its right to terminate the Agreement.
  • As we are a blank check company and are not involved in the collection of personal data of at least 1 million users or implicate cybersecurity, we do not believe that we are, or the post-combination entity will be, a “network platform operator(s)”, or subject to the cybersecurity review of the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”).
  • Furthermore, we do not own or control any equity interest in any PRC company or operate any business in China, and during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, we did not have 50% or more of our total assets, net assets, revenues or profits located or generated in China.
  • The China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”) has not issued any definitive rule or interpretation concerning whether listing of our securities are subject to the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (the “M&A Rules”), and we believe that we are not required to obtain any licenses or approvals, under applicable PRC laws and regulations, for our seeking a target for the initial business combination.
  • Furthermore, we do not own or control any equity interest in any PRC company or operate any business in China, and during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, we do not have 50% or more of our total assets, net assets, revenues or profits located or generated in China.
  • If we cannot complete an initial business combination by July 21, 2026 (if the Company extends the Business Combination Period to the deadline) because of the length of the review process or because our initial business combination is ultimately prohibited by CFIUS or another U.S. government entity, we may be required to liquidate.

  • Though we will not undertake our initial business combination with any entity that conducts a majority of its business or is headquartered in China (including Hong Kong and Macau), we are subject to risks and uncertainties about future actions of the PRC government or law enforcement to refrain our activities or operation due to the significant ties to China of our sponsor, officers and directors, which could limit our search for a target business and that can cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

  • As we are a blank check company and are not involved in the collection of personal data of at least 1 million users or implicate cybersecurity and we will not undertake our initial business combination with any entity that conducts a majority of its business or is headquartered in China (including Hong Kong and Macau), we do not believe that we are, or the post-combination entity will be, a “network platform operator(s)”, or subject to the cybersecurity review of the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”).

Sentence-level comparison of Item 1A in the two most recent 10-Ks (FY2025 ↗, FY2026 ↗). A reworded sentence counts as one dropped and one added, so heavy edits read as low “kept”. Headings and page furniture are stripped; nothing is summarised by a model.
