Gifts International Holdings Limited, organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, has formally asked the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to withdraw its Form F-1 registration statement, indicating the company plans to abandon the proposed securities offering.

The issuer originally submitted the Form F-1 registration statement on June 6, 2025, filing under File No. 333-287861 in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933. That registration statement subsequently became effective on November 4, 2025.

In its withdrawal filing - made under Rule 477 of the Securities Act - Gifts International stated that it no longer intends to consummate the offering described in the registration statement. The company also confirmed that no securities were sold in connection with the filing.

The filing addresses fees paid to the SEC in relation to the registration statement. Gifts International acknowledged that these fees will not be refunded, and requested that the fees be credited for future use under Rule 457(p) of the Securities Act.

The withdrawal request leaves the previously effective registration statement inactive, reflecting the company's decision to discontinue the offering process described in that filing. The submission under Rule 477 formalizes the company's intent to withdraw the effective registration statement from the SEC records.

Beyond the company’s statements in the withdrawal request, no additional details about alternative financing plans or subsequent corporate actions were disclosed in the filing. The record of the Form F-1 filing includes the original submission date of June 6, 2025, the effective date of November 4, 2025, and the File No. 333-287861 as noted in the SEC filing history.


Contextual note: The company's withdrawal filing specifically cites abandonment of the offering, confirms that no securities were sold under the registration, notes the nonrefundable nature of SEC fees, and requests that paid fees be credited for future registration activity under Rule 457(p).

Risks

  • The company’s decision to abandon the offering creates uncertainty about its near-term capital-raising plans - impact on the issuer’s financing timing is not specified.
  • Fees paid to the SEC in connection with the registration statement will not be refunded; the outcome of the request to have those fees credited for future use under Rule 457(p) is not detailed in the filing.
  • With the withdrawal of an effective registration statement, there is no immediate prospect of securities issuance under that filing, leaving the company without proceeds from that offering.
