• Proposed Dual-Class Share Structure

  Shareholders will vote on re-designating 9,720,000 ordinary shares held by Chairman and CEO Goh Kok Foong as Class B ordinary shares, each carrying 50 votes, while other shares become Class A with one vote each. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A upon transfer to a non-affiliate.

• Board Authority for Share Re-designation

  The board seeks approval to re-designate Class A ordinary shares as Class B ordinary shares, up to a maximum of 15,000,000 Class B shares (subject to adjustment for consolidations), further enabling the concentration of voting power.

• Significant Two-Stage Reverse Stock Split

  The company proposes a potential two-stage share consolidation: a 1-for-10 reverse split, followed by a 1-for-25 reverse split, if the Class A share price remains below $1.00. This could result in an overall 1-for-250 consolidation, with fractional shares rounded up.

• Amendment of Articles of Association

  Shareholders will also vote on approving the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to reflect the proposed changes in share capital re-designation and board authority.

CCH Holdings Ltd, a micro-cap company, is seeking shareholder approval for significant corporate governance and capital structure changes. The proposed dual-class share structure would grant the Chairman and CEO, Goh Kok Foong, disproportionate voting power (50 votes per Class B share compared to 1 vote per Class A share), effectively entrenching control and diminishing the influence of other shareholders. Concurrently, the company is proposing a two-stage reverse stock split, which could result in a 1-for-250 consolidation of shares. This action is typically undertaken by companies with low stock prices, often to meet exchange listing requirements or improve market perception, and for a company of this size, it signals underlying challenges in maintaining its share price and potentially its listing status. The combination of concentrated voting power and a substantial reverse split presents a highly negative signal for minority shareholders.
