ICT Industry in Asia The ICT industry in Asia continues to show significant expansion and vitality, especially in the realms of the Internet of Things (IoT) and robotics. This growth is predominantly fueled by major manufacturing sectors in countries like China. The strategic deployment of these technologies address some of Asia’s crucial challenges such as aging populations and labor shortages, as exemplified by Japan’s integration of robotics. Smart city initiatives are becoming increasingly prominent across Asia, spurred by high mobile device penetration. This technological leap allows several Asian countries to skip traditional infrastructural phases and adopt more advanced solutions directly. Despite these advancements, the broad adoption of transformative software solutions remains a considerable challenge that could drive deeper economic impacts if resolved 1 . Economically, the influence of IoT is profound, with its expansion in sectors like manufacturing and transportation helping to propel new technology revenues toward the $1 trillion mark annually. Forecasts indicate that emerging technologies such as robotics, drones, AR/VR headsets, and their associated software and services are set to experience substantial growth. Specifically, the IoT market in Asia is expected to reach about $398 billion by 2025, according to a report by GlobalData. The robotics market in Asia is also on a rapid ascent, anticipated to exceed $130 billion by 2025, driven by industrial and service sector applications, according to the International Federation of Robotics. Meanwhile, the AR and VR market in Asia could see revenues hitting $70.8 billion by 2024, driven by increasing demand in gaming, training, and industrial applications. Looking to the future, the next three years are poised to see a dynamic shift as the ICT sector gears up for a new growth surge. Businesses are moving from prototyping to broader deployment of cutting-edge technologies such as augmented reality devices and AI-powered robots. This transition underscores the promising outlook for Asia’s ICT industry, positioning it as a global leader in technology adoption and innovation. This period of robust technological advancement and economic contribution paints a promising future for the ICT sector across Asia.

IDC Corporate USA; see the section titled “New Technologies:” ICT Industry – Hong Kong Hong Kong’s role as a leading business center in the Asia region can be evidenced by its advanced telecommunications infrastructure. According to the IMD World Digital Competitiveness Ranking 2022, as published by the IMD World Competitiveness Centre, Hong Kong was ranked third in Asia and ninth in the world. The industry of information and communications in Hong Kong had generated HK$95.6 billion (US$12.3 billion) of value added in 2021, contributing to 3.3% of GDP. In term of industry data, Hong Kong had household broadband penetration rate at 99.5% (as at April 2022). The Hong Kong Internet connection speeds are among the highest in the world, according to the Office of the Communication Authority. The Hong Kong government has implemented various initiatives aimed at promoting the development of the ICT industry. These initiatives encompass funding support, infrastructure development, international collaboration, and workforce training. Specifically outlined in the Smart City Blueprint 2.0, adopted in December 2020, are over 130 initiatives aimed at enhancing public convenience. The objective is to help residents of Hong Kong grasp the advantages that innovation and technology in smart city endeavors will offer in their everyday lives. The Hong Kong government’s Innovation and Technology Fund (ITF) has provided an alternative source of funding for the IT industry to support R&D development, facilitate technology adoption, nurture technology talent, support technology start-ups, and foster an I&T culture. As of end-February 2024, the ITF had approved 68,668 funding applications on projects with a total of HK$ 40.8 billion. Last but not least, Hong Kong has a large pool of skilled ICT professionals, providing services to clients spanning a wide range of businesses. According to 2022 Manpower Survey Report, as of April 2022, 112,425 people (including freelancers) were working in ICT-related fields in Hong Kong, accounting for 2.99% of the labor force. 3 Sources: Hong Kong Trade Development Council: https://research.hktdc.com/en/article/MzExMTUwMDAy#:~:text=Indeed%2C%20excellence%20in%20the%20telecommunications,3.3%25%20of%20Hong%20Kong’s%20GDP Innovation and Technology Sector Manpower Survey Report: https://manpower-survey.vtc.edu.hk/f/publication/13887/Manpower%20Survey%20Report%20for%20Innovation%20and%20Technology%20Sector.pdf ICT Industry in ASEAN The IT spending market in Southeast Asia is projected to rise to USD 33.97 trillion between 2021 and 2026, with an accelerated growth rate of 8.4% annually. The hardware segment, driven by increased mobile device usage like smartphones and tablets, will notably contribute to revenue growth. This segment is expected to maintain steady growth due to the rising adoption of VoLTE and 4G standards, prompting consumers to upgrade their phones. In addition, significant investments by telecommunication operators in 4G and 5G infrastructure will further boost growth in the hardware segment of the IT spending market in Southeast Asia 2 . Southeast Asia’s digital economies are set to reach $218 billion in total value of transactions this year, jumping 11% from a year ago despite global macroeconomic headwinds, a new report by Google, Temasek and Bain & Company revealed. In 2023, the digital economy in Southeast Asia generated $100 billion in revenue, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27% since 2021, which is 1.7 times faster than the growth of gross merchandise value (GMV). E-commerce, travel, transport, and media sectors contributed $70 billion in revenue. Notably, this focus on revenue generation has not compromised consumer engagement or the growth of GMV, which still increased by 11% to $218 billion in 2023. Travel and transport sectors are projected to surpass pre-pandemic levels in 2024, while e-commerce continues to exhibit resilience, driven by heightened competition. Sources: 2.

As the public and private sectors increase their adoption of ICT solutions, the ICT market is predicted to grow by 14% in 2023 to a value of VND 240 trillion Vietnam dong (equivalent to USD 10.2 billion). By 2027, the market is expected to surpass VND 400 trillion Vietnam dong (equivalent to USD 17 billion). The Vietnamese government has recognized information and communications technology (ICT) as a significant industry and socioeconomic growth driver. To enhance operational efficiency and improve governance services, government agencies at all levels are being encouraged to implement advanced ICT solutions 14 . The rapid adoption of digital technologies in numerous industries is the main factor driving the Vietnamese market. ICT solutions are being adopted by businesses, government agencies, and educational institutions on a growing scale to modernize operations, boost efficiency, and provide better services. Furthermore, the demand for ICT services, such as digital content and e-commerce, is increasing due to the nation’s increasing internet penetration, which is being driven by inexpensive smartphones and developing infrastructure. Fintech, e-commerce, and edtech innovation is supported by government programs such as the “National Digital Transformation Program” and a vibrant startup ecosystem. Because of Vietnam’s favorable business climate and steady economy, the country is seeing an increase in foreign investments in the ICT sector, which promotes knowledge sharing and technology transfer 15 . There are five mobile operators operating in Vietnam: VNPT-Vinaphone, Mobifone, Viettel, Vietnammobile, and Gtel. State-owned enterprises dominate the telecommunications industry. Additionally, there exist three mobile virtual network operators, namely Asim Telecom (Local), Mobicast (Reddi), and Dong Duong Telecom (iTel). The combined market share of the three network operators—VNPT-Vinaphone, Viettel, and Mobifone—is close to 95%. The Ministry of Information and Communications in Vietnam estimates that as of September 2022, there were 127.207 million mobile subscribers. Vietnam is predicted to have 129.2 million subscribers by the end of 2032, with an average annual growth rate of only 0.5% from 2022 to 2032. 89.2% of connections will have 5G capability by 2032. The penetration rate of the Vietnamese mobile market is approximately 128%, indicating a highly saturated market. A recent study also shows that the cybersecurity market in Vietnam will generate USD 215 million in total revenue by 2023, with growth expected to occur at a rate of roughly 15% year in 2022 and 2023. According to World Bank estimates, as Vietnam pursues projects in e-government, the internet of things (IOT), smart cities, financial technology, artificial intelligence, etc., the nation’s digital economy will surpass USD 43 billion by 2025. However, the public and private sectors are facing an increase in cyber threats as a result of the nation’s unprecedented growth and demand for digital services 16 . Sources: 14.

Our primary focus will be to provide domain knowledge in delivering ICT-enriched learning experiences and best practices through our years of experience in the ICT and tech-based industry. We intend to provide professional industry-based advice, conduct market analysis, track performance metrics and corporate development advisory on ASIA-wide ICT aspects. The Company intends to conduct feasibility report based on the industry average using comparison of common firms performance within the ICT industry. The feasibility reports cover seven main areas to clearly identify the pain points that entrepreneurs may encounter within the ICT market: - Direction and Strategy - Team and Execution - Culture and Brand - Creativity and Innovation - Business Modelling - Sustainability - Profitability Match-Making & Business Opportunities The strength and ability of ASIA entrepreneurs are evolving and improving; hence our Company’s mission is to assist these entrepreneurs to grow globally. SEATech targets emerging-growth entrepreneurs and assist them to sustain their economic positions in the Asia-Pacific region, as we believe the multilateral business relationship between the countries in these regions has shown a trend of increasing strength which will continue in the future. We intend to identify emerging-growth entrepreneurs, initially, through word of mouth and existing industry contacts of our officers and directors, we may also evaluate the possibility of organizing programs or events in future and to provide a venture pitching platform for tech-based companies seeking venture capital funding. Plans regarding the organizing of events is in the growth stage, and currently we have not taken measures to finalize such plans. Once entrepreneurs are identified, we will create linkages between the ecosystem players within the information and communications technology (ICT) industry and assist in solving critical issue for the continued development of ICT sectors. 8 Technology Team It is the Company’s belief that digital products and services are transforming industries, enriching lives, and propelling progress. We strongly believe that our team with years of experience in the ICT industry will be able to reinforce the importance of digitization and incubate promising entrepreneurs in the ICT industry who can shape the country’s future. With the experience of our officers and directors in this industry, we believe that we are able to benefit our members by making recommendations pursuant to the digital economy, conducting market analysis, and tracking digital progress metrics throughout Southeast Asia. Financial and Corporate Advisory Team Growing strong regional entrepreneurs is not our sole aim, we also aspire to build an ICT ecosystem in the region through the tool of securitization that could assist our clients to compete on the world stage. As such, we have entered into a memorandum of understanding with the National ICT Association of Malaysia (PIKOM), and GreenPro Capital Corp (NASDAQ: GRNQ) to enter into a partnership to create greater value for the high-growth emerging companies in the ASIA region. In collaboration with Greenpro, our corporate development advisory services can be flexible arrangement, custom fitted for members and their needs. We provide advisory services to ascertain that our clients are well structured and have clearly delineated funding options available in the capital marketplace. Corporate Program Despite the technological advancements, many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in ASIA are still low in both technology and skillsets. With our Corporate Programs, we intend to match and enhance performance of ICT entrepreneurs based upon a spectrum of availability, innovation environment, regulatory environment, and digital literacy. It is our intention to create corporate programs through which our community clients may have an opportunity to attend seminars, workshops, promotional events that showcase industry expertise during key cross-countries Southeast Asia events. All such plans remain in development and we have yet to determine a timeline when such programs will become available. Future Plan Marketing We plan to explore tech-based marketplaces and attract IT startup entrepreneurs around ASIA countries through building our corporate image and awareness through corporate seminars, website and pitching events.

We are initially targeting expansion into the Asian market, specifically in Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Philippines, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, Taiwan, China, and Hong Kong. We are seeking senior individuals with extensive experience in the ICT industry who are capable of providing thorough analysis, corporate management advice, and developing business solutions for ICT companies looking to expand. These partners will also be responsible for conducting performance assessments and implementing our new strategic plans and objectives. Over the next 12 months, we plan to expand our team in Malaysia by hiring fifteen to twenty new employees, including accountants, public relations professionals, and ICT business consultants. These additions will help us strengthen our operational capabilities. Additionally, we will be securing office space to support our business activities and to provide a venue for meetings with potential clients. We are also committed to funding our ICT Incubator Program, which will require substantial investment in research, development, and testing. Due to the complex nature of this initiative, we are currently unable to establish a fixed timeline or budget. As our operations evolve, we will consider potential acquisitions and venture opportunities that may complement our existing activities, particularly following our successful listing on the US capital market. This strategic expansion and recruitment effort in Malaysia is part of our broader commitment to enhancing our presence in key markets and reinforcing our service offerings in the ICT sector. By bolstering our team with skilled professionals and establishing a more robust operational base, we aim to improve our competitive edge and responsiveness to market demands. In parallel, our investment in the ICT Incubator Program reflects our dedication to fostering innovation and nurturing new technologies that could lead to groundbreaking developments in the industry. This program will serve as a catalyst for transforming fresh ideas into viable products and services, thereby contributing to the overall growth of the ICT sector. As we move forward, our exploration of potential acquisitions and venture opportunities will be guided by a strategic focus on creating synergies with our current operations. This approach will ensure that any new partnerships or integrations not only align with but also enhance our core business objectives. Competition SEATech focuses on providing mentoring and advisory services to ICT companies in ASIA. The venture capital industry in ASEAN or even the ASIAN region has grown substantially over the years, as more start-ups, especially those with ICT focus, will require mentoring and incubation services in order to move to the next level. Henceforth, the venture capital industry is getting more competitive and SEATech intends to improve its visibility and the provision of its advisory services in order to stand out from the competition.

MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES Not applicable. 11 PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink under the trading symbol “SEAV.” Trading in stocks quoted on the OTC Pink is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with a company’s operations or business prospects. We cannot assure you that there will be a market for our common stock in the future. For the periods indicated, the following table sets forth the high and low bid prices per share of common stock based on inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not represent actual transactions. Fiscal Year 2023 Highest Bid Lowest Bid First Quarter $ 0.16 $ 0.02 Second Quarter $ 0.54 $ 0.01 Third Quarter $ 0.65 $ 0.04 Fourth Quarter $ 0.83 $ 0.20 Holders As of December 31, 2023, we had 114,351,503 shares of our Common Stock par value, $.0001 issued and outstanding. There were 492 beneficial owners of our Common Stock. Transfer Agent and Registrar The transfer agent for our capital stock is VStock Transfer, LLC, with an address at 18, Lafayette Place, Woodmere, New York 11598 and telephone number is +1 (212) 828-8436. Penny Stock Regulations The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our Common Stock, when and if a trading market develops, may fall within the definition of penny stock and be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 individually, or $300,000, together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction, other than exempt transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our Common Stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their Common Stock in the secondary market. In addition to the “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit the investors’ ability to buy and sell our stock. Dividend Policy Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends on shares of our Common Stock will be made at the discretion of our board of directors out of funds legally available for such purpose. We are under no obligations or restrictions to declare or pay dividends on our shares of Common Stock. In addition, we currently have no plans to pay such dividends. Our board of directors currently intends to retain all earnings for use in the business for the foreseeable future. Equity Compensation Plan Information Currently, there is no equity compensation plan in place. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities Currently, there is no unregistered sales of equity securities. 12 Purchases of Equity Securities by the Registrant and Affiliated Purchasers We have not repurchased any shares of our common stock during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Use of estimates Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the balance sheets, and the reported revenue and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 15 Accounts receivable Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount less an allowance for any uncollectible accounts. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history and the current economic conditions to make an adjustment to the allowance when it is considered necessary. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Revenue recognition Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASC 606. The standard is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires revenue to be recognized in a manner to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and taxes applicable to the revenue. The Company derives its revenue from provision of business mentoring, nurturing, incubating and corporate development advisory services to ICT and technology-based companies. Income taxes Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “ Income Taxes ” (“ASC Topic 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts. 16 Foreign currencies translation The reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiaries in Labuan and Hong Kong, are United States Dollars (“US$”), while its subsidiaries in Malaysia, maintains the books and record in Ringgit Malaysia (“MYR”), being the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and the equity accounts are translated at historical rates . The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statements of operations. In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiary whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “ Translation of Financial Statement ”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity. Translation of amounts from MYR and HK$ into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods: As of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 2022 Year-end MYR : US$1 exchange rate 4.59 4.40 Year-average MYR: US$1 exchange rate 4.56 4.40 Year-end HK$ : US$1 exchange rate 7.81 7.81 Year-average HK$ : US$1 exchange rate 7.83 7.83 Related parties Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosures Control and Procedures 18 Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that: ● Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; ● Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and ● Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. As of December 31, 2023, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (ICIF-2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that, during the period covered by this Report, internal controls and procedures over were not effective. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses. Identified Material Weakness A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Management identified the following material weakness during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. We do not have adequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment – Lack of segregation of duties and effective risk assessment may cause the Company to face the likelihood of fraud or theft, due to poor oversight, governance and review to detect errors. Accordingly, the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company’s internal controls. 19 As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 based on criteria established in in COSO Internal Control - Integrated Framework (ICIF-2013).

Opinion on the Financial Statement We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of SEATech Ventures Corp. and its subsidiaries (the ‘Company’) as of December 31, 2023, and the related consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss, consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ (deficit) equity, and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company incurred a net loss of $302,829, suffered an accumulated deficit of $896,909 and negative operating cash flow of $124,661 as of December 31, 2023. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that that may be necessary to reflect the effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and additional liabilities that may arise if the Company is not able to continue as a going concern. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current year audit of the financial statements that were communicated or are required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements, and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. We determined that there are no critical audit matters. /s/ J&S ASSOCIATE PLT Certified Public Accountants PCAOB No : 6743 We have served as the Company’s auditor since 202 4.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares) Use of estimates Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the balance sheets, and the reported revenue and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Revenue recognition In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts . ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and taxes applicable to the revenue. The Company derives its revenue from provision of business mentoring, nurturing, incubating and corporate development advisory services to ICT and technology-based companies. Cost of revenue Cost of revenue includes the cost of services and product in providing business mentoring, nurturing, incubating and corporate development advisory services. Investments Investments in equity securities The Company accounts for its investments that represent less than 20 % ownership, and for which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence, using ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities . The Company measure investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value using a measurement alternative that measures these securities at the cost method minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes on a non-recurring basis. Gains and losses on these securities are recognized in other income and expenses. At December 31, 2023, the Company had five investments in equity securities with carrying value of $ 5,715 . At December 31, 2022, the Company had four investments in equity securities with carrying value of $ 5,065 (see Note 6). Accounts receivable Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount less an allowance for any uncollectible accounts. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history and the current economic conditions to make an adjustment to the allowance when it is considered necessary. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments. Income taxes The provision of income taxes is determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts. Going concern The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $ 302,829 , suffered an accumulated deficit of $ 896,909 and negative operating cash flow of $ 124,661 . These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon improving its profitability and the continuing financial support from its Chief Executive Officer cum shareholder. Management believes the existing shareholders or external financing will provide the additional cash to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. No assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders, in the case of equity financing.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares) Net income/(loss) per share The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260 “ Earnings per share ”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Foreign currencies translation The reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiaries in Labuan and Hong Kong, are United States Dollars (“US$”), while its subsidiaries in Malaysia, maintains the books and record in Ringgit Malaysia (“MYR”), being the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statements of operations. In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiary whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “ Translation of Financial Statement ”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiary are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity. Translation of amounts from RM into US$1 and HK$ into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods: SCHEDULE OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES TRANSLATION EXCHANGE RATE As of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 2022 Year-end RM : US$1 exchange rate 4.59 4.40 Year-average RM : US$1 exchange rate 4.56 4.40 Year-end HK$: US$1 exchange rate 7.81 7.81 Year-average HK$ : US$1 exchange rate 7.83 7.83 Related parties Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. F- 11 SEATECH VENTURES CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares) Fair value of financial instruments : The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, subscription receivables, prepayment and deposits, accounts payable, and other payables and accrued liabilities approximate at their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The Company also follows the guidance of the ASC Topic 820-10, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ” (“ASC 820-10”), with respect to financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Recently adopted Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topics 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced the expected credit losses methodology for the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, replacing the previous incurred loss methodology. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 highlighted the adoption timeline. For smaller reporting entities, Topic 326 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim period within those fiscal years, of which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. Credit loss rate is determined by historical collection based on aging schedule, adjusted for current conditions using reasonable and supportable forecast. Based on the aging categorization and the adjusted loss per category, an allowance for credit losses is calculated by multiplying the adjusted loss rate with the amortized cost in the respective age category. Recent accounting pronouncements The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

The Company believes the concentration of credit risk in its trade receivables is substantially mitigated by its ongoing credit evaluation process and relatively short collection terms. The Company does not generally require collateral from customers. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. 15. SEGMENT INFORMATION ASC 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about services categories, business segments and major customers in financial statements. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer and President, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes.
