Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Overview

 

We are an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on August 2, 2022, as a holding company of our business, which is primarily operated through our indirectly wholly-owned Hong Kong Operating Subsidiaries, MS (HK) Engineering Limited and MS Engineering Co., Limited (the “Operating Subsidiaries”). Ming Shing Group Holdings Limited (the “Company”) is not a Hong Kong operating company but a Cayman Islands holding company with operations conducted by our Operating Subsidiaries in Hong Kong. We mainly engage in wet trades works, such as plastering works, tile laying works, brick laying works, floor screeding works, and marble works. To a much lesser extent, we also provide small-scale fitting out services, such as renovation works to our customers.

 

MS (HK) Engineering Limited and MS Engineering Co., Limited were founded in 2012 and 2019, respectively. In our operating history of approximately ten years, we have focused on providing wet trades works services in the role of subcontractor, and built up our expertise and track record in wet trades work. We have focused on the role of project management and supervision in carrying out our projects, and we have engaged subcontractors to perform substantial parts of the site works under our supervision. Typically, our major responsibilities in a project include (i) arranging site preparatory and preliminary works; (ii) engaging and supervising our subcontractors; (iii) monitoring the implementation of site works; (iv) conducting site safety supervision and quality control; and (v) developing a detailed work schedule and work allocation plan.

 

We, through our Operating Subsidiaries, are mainly engaged in private sector projects in Hong Kong. Thus far, our private sector projects have mainly involved private residential developments and commercial developments. The project owners of our private sector projects have generally been property developers, and our customers have generally been main contractors and wet trades works subcontractors engaged under such projects. To a lesser extent thus far, we have also been engaged in public sector projects in Hong Kong. Our public sector projects have mainly involved public residential developments as well as infrastructure and public facilities developments. The customers of our public sector projects have generally been main contractors engaged by Government departments and statutory bodies.
