Davis Commodities Limited – Share Swap Agreement

 

Davis Commodities Limited was incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability on September 20, 2022, with an initial share capital of 3,524 shares.

 

On September 20, 2022, Davis Commodities Limited entered into a share swap agreement with Davis & KT Holdings Pte. Ltd. (the “Share Swap Agreement”). Pursuant to the Share Swap Agreement, Davis & KT Holdings Pte. Ltd. transferred 100 shares, the total issued and paid up capital of Maxwill Pte. Ltd., to Davis Commodities Limited, while Davis Commodities Limited issued and allotted 6,476 shares to Davis & KT Holdings Pte. Ltd. (the “Share Swap”). Following the acquisition, Maxwill Pte. Ltd., together with all its subsidiaries, become wholly owned subsidiaries of Davis Commodities Limited. Davis Commodities Limited had an issued and paid up capital of 10,000 shares.

 

The Share Swap is considered as a merger of entities under common control. Under the guidance in ASC 805, for transactions between entities under common control, the assets, liabilities and results of operations, are recognized at their carrying amounts on the date of the Share Swap, which requires retrospective combination of the Company, Maxwill Pte. Ltd., Maxwill (Asia) Pte. Ltd., LP Grace Pte. Ltd. and Maxwill Foodlink Pte. Ltd. for all periods presented. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the existing corporate structure had been in existence throughout all periods. This includes a retrospective presentation for all equity related disclosures, including issued shares and earnings per share, which have been revised to reflect the effects of the reorganization, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

After the reorganization, the Company wholly owns Maxwill Pte. Ltd., which is domiciled in Singapore; Maxwill Pte. Ltd. wholly owns Maxwill (Asia) Pte. Ltd., LP Grace Pte. Ltd. and Maxwill Foodlink Pte. Ltd., which are all incorporated and domiciled in Singapore. The Company is headquartered in Singapore and conducts its operations domestically.
