23、curities.We are registering theoffer and sale of the Registered Securities,in part,to satisfy certain registration rights we have granted.The SellingSecurityholders may offer all or part of the Registered Securities for resale from time to time through public or privatetransactions,at either prevail
24、ing market prices or at privately negotiated prices.The Registered Securities are beingregistered to permit the Selling Securityholders to sell securities from time to time,in amounts,at prices and on termsdetermined at the time of offering.The Selling Securityholders may sell the Registered Securit
25、ies through ordinarybrokerage transactions,in underwritten offerings,directly to market makers of our securities or through any othermeans described in the section entitled“Plan of Distribution”herein.In connection with any sales of the RegisteredSecurities offered hereunder,the Selling Securityhold
26、ers,any underwriters,agents,brokers or dealers participating insuch sales may be deemed to be“underwriters”within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933,as amended.Subject to the lock-up restrictions described in this prospectus under the section titled“Plan of Distribution,”andassuming the Earno
27、ut Shares will be vested,the Selling Securityholders can sell,under this prospectus,up to34,415,562 Ordinary Shares constituting(on a post-exercise basis)approximately 71.5%of our issued and outstandingOrdinary Shares as of January 16,2025(assuming the exercise of all of our outstanding Warrants and
28、 full conversion ofGFC Shares into 290,000 Ordinary Shares).Despite a potential decline in the public trading price of the OrdinaryShares,certain Selling Securityholders may still experience a positive rate of return on the securities that they sellpursuant to this prospectus as they have acquired t
29、he securities registered hereunder at prices substantially belowcurrent market prices,and may therefore have an incentive to sell their securities.For example,based on the closingprice of our Ordinary Shares at$5.42 on January 16,2025,the holders of Sponsor Shares may experience a potentialprofit of
30、 up to$5.416 per share;and certain shareholders of Betters Medical following the Pro Rata Distribution mayexperience a potential profit of up to$5.23 per share.The holders of Public Warrants may experience a potential profiton their Warrants if the price of our Ordinary Shares exceeds$11.50 per shar
31、e.However,the public holders of oursecurities may not experience a similar rate of return on the securities they purchase due to differences in the applicablepurchase price and trading price.Given theThe information in this preliminary prospectus is not complete and may be changed.These securities m

34、 securities,could increase the volatility of themarket price of our Ordinary Shares or result in a significant decline in the public trading price of our Ordinary Shares.We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the securities by the Selling Securityholders.We will receiveproceeds from the e
35、xercise of Warrants if the Warrants are exercised for cash.The likelihood that warrant holders willexercise the Warrants and any cash proceeds that we would receive is dependent upon the market price of our OrdinaryShares.Based on the closing price of our Ordinary Shares at$5.42 on January 16,2025,w
36、hich is less than the exerciseprice of$11.50 per share pursuant to the terms of the Warrants,we believe the warrant holders will be unlikely toexercise their Warrants,and we are unlikely to receive proceeds from the exercise of Warrants.We will pay theexpenses associated with registering the sales b

175、E OF CONTENTS SUMMARY OF THE PROSPECTUSThis summary highlights selected information that is presented in greater detail elsewhere in thisprospectus.This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing inour securities.You should read this entire prospectus carefu
176、lly,including the sections titled“Risk Factors”and“Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”and ourconsolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus,before makingan investment decision.Business OverviewWe are one
177、 of the leading microwave ablation medical device developers and providers in the PRC forminimally invasive treatment of tumors.Our proprietary medical devices are used for treatment of benignand malignant tumors,including thyroid nodules,liver cancer,lung cancer and breast lumps.We ranked firstamon
178、g microwave ablation medical device providers in the treatment of thyroid nodules and breast lumps inthe PRC in terms of sales revenue and sales volume of microwave ablation needles in 2022 according to theFrost&Sullivan Report.Further,we were the third largest microwave ablation medical device prov
179、ider inthe PRC in terms of sales revenue in 2022.Microwave ablation is a minimally invasive treatment technique that denaturalizes and coagulates theprotein of tumor cells with extreme heat generated by microwave energy.Microwave ablation treatmentshave been applied to benign and malignant tumors,an
180、d management believes they are safer,less invasiveand easier to operate with faster recovery periods and lower complication rates for patients,as compared totraditional treatment methods such as surgery,radiotherapy,interventional radiology,chemotherapy,targeted therapy and immunotherapy.We are not
181、aware of any research suggesting that such traditionaltreatments can also prevent cancer progression by curbing benign tumors from developing into malignanttumors.The type of tumor treatment depends on the patients individual circumstances,including the sizeand characteristics of the tumor,the desir
182、ed outcome,and the acceptable cost.Some types of benign tumorshave the potential of transforming into malignant ones through a process known as“cancer progression.”The cancer progression rates among persons with thyroid nodules and breast lumps are 5.0%and 7.0%,respectively,according to the Frost&Su
183、llivan Report.Microwave ablation treatments can help to preventcancer progression by curbing a benign tumor from developing into a malignant tumor,and managementbelieves that patients diagnosed with benign tumors are inclined to seek tumor removal to avoid the risks ofcancer progression.Our product
184、offerings and pipeline products mainly consist of microwave ablation apparatus andneedles.Our product offerings available for sale include microwave ablation apparatus approved for thetreatment of live cancer and thyroid nodule,long microwave ablation needles,and fine microwave ablationneedles.Curre
185、ntly,we hold two registration certificates for Class III medical devices specifically approvedfor the treatment of liver cancer and thyroid nodules,and one registration certificate for Class II medicaldevices in the PRC.For a full list of each such product and its respective registration certificate
186、,see thesection titled“BusinessCompetitive Strengths”below.Under PRC laws and regulations,Class II medicaldevices are those with moderate risks and are strictly controlled and administered,and Class III medicaldevices are those with relatively high risks and are strictly controlled and administered
187、through specialmeasures.Through our research and development team,led by our co-chief technical officers,Mr.Rongjian Lu,and our research and development partners,including Nanjing Forestry University and Zhuhai PeoplesHospital,we have focused our development efforts on additional types of microwave
188、ablation medicaldevices to meet market demand,and have also developed a product pipeline to achieve more extensiveproducts offering.Our products are ultimately sold to hospitals through(i)direct sales,(ii)deliverers,or(iii)distributors.Benefiting from our distributors established channels and resour
189、ces,we have been able to cut costs andtime in reaching target markets compared to the costs and time required to distribute those products throughdirect sales.See“Sales Channels”below for an explanation of the difference between deliverers anddistributors.With a network of qualified deliverers,we ha
190、ve been able to sell products to a large group ofhospitals at once.With our solid and strategically managed network of deliverers and distributors and closecollaboration with medical associations and doctors through our sales and marketing efforts,we have seenthe number of hospitals in China purchas

196、icals ability to pay dividends to the shareholders and to service any debt we may incur may highlydepend upon dividends paid by our PRC subsidiaries,despite that we may obtain financing at the holdingcompany level through other methods.For instance,if any of our PRC subsidiaries incurs debt on its o
197、wnbehalf in the future,the instruments governing such debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends to us andthe investors.Under PRC laws and regulations,our PRC subsidiaries are permitted to pay dividends only out of theirretained earnings,if any,as determined in accordance with PRC accounting sta
198、ndards and regulations.Furthermore,our PRC subsidiaries are required to make appropriations to certain statutory reserve funds ormay make appropriations to certain discretionary funds,which are not distributable as cash dividends exceptin the event of a solvent liquidation of the companies.Remittanc
199、e of dividends by our PRC subsidiaries outof China is also subject to certain procedures with the banks designated by the PRC State Administration ofForeign Exchange(“SAFE”).These restrictions are benchmarked against the paid-up capital and thestatutory reserve funds of our PRC subsidiaries.In addit
200、ion,while there are currently no such restrictions onforeign exchange and our ability to transfer cash or assets between Baird Medical and our Hong Kongsubsidiary,if certain PRC laws and regulations,including existing laws and regulations and those enacted orpromulgated in the future were to become
201、applicable to our Hong Kong subsidiary in the future,and to theextent our cash or assets are in Hong Kong or a Hong Kong entity,such funds or assets may not be availabledue to interventions in or the imposition of restrictions and limitations on our ability to transfer funds orassets by 2TABLE OF CO

213、hholding tax.See“Taxation”for details.The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable ActThe HFCAA was enacted on December 18,2020.Pursuant to the HFCAA and related regulations,if wehave filed an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that the PCAOB has determined thatit is unable to i
214、nspect and investigate completely,the SEC will identify us as a“Commission-identifiedIssuer,”and the trading of our securities on any U.S.national securities exchanges,as well as any over-the-counter trading in the United States,will be prohibited if we are identified as a Commission-identifiedIssue
215、r for two consecutive years.In August 2022,the PCAOB,the CSRC and the Ministry of Finance of thePRC signed the Statement of Protocol,which establishes a specific and accountable framework for thePCAOB to conduct inspections and investigations of PCAOB-governed accounting firms in mainland Chinaand H
216、ong Kong.On December 15,2022,the PCAOB announced that it was able to secure complete accessto inspect and investigate PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China andHong Kong completely in 2022.The PCAOB Board vacated its previous 2021 determinations that thePCAOB was un
217、able to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered inmainland China and Hong Kong.Our auditor,Marcum Asia CPAs LLP,an independent registered publicaccounting firm that headquartered in the United States,is currently subject to the PCAOB inspections on aregular
218、 basis and was not identified in 3TABLE OF CONTENTS the determination report made by the PCAOB on December 16,2021.However,whether the PCAOB willre-evaluate its determination as a result of any obstruction with the implementation of the Statement ofProtocol in the future is subject to uncertainties
219、and depends on a number of factors out of our and ourauditors control.The PCAOB continues to demand complete access in mainland China and Hong Kongmoving forward and to pursue ongoing investigations and initiate new investigations as needed.ThePCAOB has also indicated that it will act immediately to
220、 consider the need to issue new determinations withthe HFCAA if needed.If the PCAOB is unable to inspect and investigate completely registered publicaccounting firms located in China and we fail to retain another registered public accounting firm that thePCAOB is able to inspect and investigate comp

222、ncertainties could cause the value of the Ordinary Shares to significantlydecline or become worthless.For details,see“Risk FactorsRisks Related to Doing Business in ChinaTrading in our securities on any U.S.stock exchange or the U.S.over-the-counter market may be prohibitedunder the HFCAA if the PCA

268、is prospectus and in our other filings with the SEC,including the following riskfactors,in evaluating our business.If any of the following risks actually occur,our business,financialcondition,results of operations,and growth prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected.This prospectus
269、 also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.See thesection entitled“Forward-Looking Statements.”Risks Related to Our Business and IndustryRisks and uncertainties relating to our business and industry include,but are not limited to,thefollowing:The limited operating
270、 history of Baird Medical may not be indicative of its future growth and makesit difficult to predict its future prospects,including business and financial performance.Baird Medicals historical operating results may not be representative of future performance.Inparticular,Baird Medicals high gross p
271、rofit margin may not be sustainable.Baird Medical may be unable to obtain,maintain or renew the regulatory filings and registrationcertificates needed to commercialize its microwave medical devices in a timely manner,or at all.Baird Medical may not be able to maintain or renew all the permits,licens
272、es and certificates requiredfor its business and operations.Baird Medical may fail to maintain or renew its relationship with existing distributors and customers,or maintain its sales network.Baird Medicals sales may be affected by the level of medical insurance reimbursement available topatients us
273、ing its products.Risks Related to Doing Business in ChinaWe face various legal and operational risks and uncertainties related to being based in and havingsignificant operations in China,and therefore are subject to risks associated with doing business in Chinagenerally.Risks and uncertainties relat
274、ed to doing business in China could result in a material adversechange in our operations,significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer our securities toinvestors,and cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.Such risks anduncertainties include,but
275、 not limited to,the following:Chinese government has significant authority to intervene or influence our operations at any time,and to exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers.For details,see“Risk FactorsRisks Related to Doing Business in
276、ChinaThePRC government has significant authority to exert influence on the China operations of an offshoreholding company,and offerings conducted overseas and foreign investment in China-based issuers,such as us.Changes in Chinas economic,political or social conditions or government policies couldha

281、ject to impact from PRC economic,political and social conditions,as well as changes inany government policies,laws and regulations.For details,see“Risk FactorsRisks Related toDoing Business in ChinaThe PRC government has significant authority to exert influence on theChina operations of an offshore

283、securities,”and“Adverse changes ineconomic and political policies of the PRC government could negatively impact Chinas overalleconomic growth,which could materially adversely affect our business.”We are subject to uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system,including such relating to theenfor

285、sely affect our business.”Risks Related to Our Securities and this OfferingThe price of our securities may be volatile,and the value of our securities may decline.The process of taking a company public by means of a business combination with a special purposeacquisition company is different from tak
286、ing a company public through an IPO and may create risksfor our unaffiliated investors.The Warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares will increase the number of shares eligible for futureresale in the public market and result in dilution to our shareholders.Sales of the Registered Securities,or the perce
287、ption of such sales,by the Selling Securityholderspursuant to this prospectus in the public market or otherwise could cause the market price for ourOrdinary Shares to decline.We will be a foreign private issuer,and as a result,will not be subject to U.S.proxy rules and will besubject to Exchange Act
288、 reporting obligations that,to some extent,are more lenient and less frequentthan those of a U.S.domestic public company.As a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands,we are permitted to adopt certain home countrypractices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from
289、the Nasdaq StockMarket corporate governance listing standards;these practices may afford less protection toshareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with the Nasdaq Stock Market corporategovernance listing standards.You may face difficulties in protecting your interests,and your abilit
290、y to protect your rights throughU.S.courts may be limited,because we are incorporated under the law of the Cayman Islands,andwill conduct substantially all of our operations in China,and a majority of our directors andexecutive officers will reside outside of the United States.Emerging Growth Compan
291、yWe are an“emerging growth company,”as defined in Section 2(a)of the Securities Act,as modified bythe Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012(the“JOBS Act”),and it may take advantage of certainexemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are n
292、otemerging growth companies including,but not limited to,not being required to comply with theindependent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act,reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports andpro
293、xy statements,and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote onexecutive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previouslyapproved.Further,Section 102(b)(1)of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being requiredto comply w
294、ith new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies(that is,those thathave not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securitiesregistered 8TABLE OF CONTENTS under the Exchange Act)are required to comply with the new or revised
295、financial accounting standards.TheJOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition periodand comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election toopt out is irrevocable.We have elected not to opt out of s
296、uch extended transition period,which means thatwhen a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies,we,as an emerging growth company,can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companiesadopt the new or revised standard.This may ma
297、ke comparison of our financial statements with anotherpublic company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that hasopted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differencesin accounting standards used.We will re
298、main an emerging growth company until the earlier of:(1)the last day of the fiscal year(i)following the fifth anniversary of the consummation of the Business Combination,(ii)in which we havetotal annual gross revenue of at least$1.235 billion,or(iii)in which we are deemed to be a largeaccelerated fi
299、ler,which means the market value of Ordinary Shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds$700 million as of the last business day of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter;and(2)thedate on which we have issued more than$1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the priorthr
300、ee-year period.References herein to“emerging growth company”have the meaning associated with it inthe JOBS Act.Foreign Private IssuerWe are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act and,as such,weare permitted to follow the corporate governance practices of its
301、home country,the Cayman Islands,in lieuof the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq applicable to U.S.domestic companies.For example,weare not required to have a majority of the board consisting of independent directors nor have a compensationcommittee or a nominating and corporate governance com
302、mittee consisting entirely of independentdirectors.We intend to follow its home countrys corporate governance practices as long as it remains aforeign private issuer.As a result,our shareholders may not have the same protection afforded toshareholders of U.S.domestic companies that are subject to Na
303、sdaq corporate governance requirements.Asa foreign private issuer,we are also subject to reduced disclosure requirements and are exempt from certainprovisions of the U.S.securities rules and regulations applicable to U.S.domestic issuers such as the rulesregulating solicitation of proxies and certai
304、n insider reporting and short-swing profit rules.9TABLE OF CONTENTS THE OFFERINGThe summary below describes the principal terms of the offering.The“Description of Share Capital”section of this prospectus contains a more detailed description of the Ordinary Shares.Issuance of Ordinary SharesPursuant

318、gnificant risks.You should carefully consider all of theinformation set forth in this prospectus and in our other filings with the SEC,including the following riskfactors,in evaluating our business.If any of the following risks actually occur,our business,financialcondition,results of operations,and
319、 growth prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected.This prospectus also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.See thesection entitled“Forward-Looking Statements.”Risks Related to Our Business and IndustryOur limited operating history may not be ind
320、icative of our future growth and makes it difficult to predict our futureprospects,including business and financial performance.Our operations trace back to June 2012 when Baide Suzhou Medical Co.,Ltd.,a limited liabilitycompany formed in the PRC(“Baide Suzhou”),was established by Haimei Wu,her husb
321、and,Wenyuan Wu,and two other independent third parties.Thereafter,we commenced our business,which consisted of thedistribution of general medical devices in Guangdong,China.In May 2017,Baide Suzhou acquired a 51%equity interest in Nanjing Changcheng Medical Equipment Co.,Ltd.,a limited liability com
322、pany formed inthe PRC in January 2016(“Nanjing Changcheng”)and expanded our business to include the developmentand provision of microwave ablation medical devices in China.In March 2019,Baide Suzhou acquired theremaining 49%equity interest in Nanjing Changcheng,and Nanjing Changcheng became a wholly
323、 ownedsubsidiary of Baide Suzhou.Over the years,we have developed a strategically managed network withhospitals and medical device distributors,and have gradually expanded our market share in the distributionand sales of microwave ablation medical devices in the PRC.Our short operating history may n
324、ot serve as an adequate basis for evaluating our prospects and futureoperating results,including,but not limited to,our key operating data,net revenue,cash flows andoperating margins.In addition,the microwave ablation medical devices industry in China is at an earlystage of development and will cont
325、inue to evolve.There is no guarantee that hospitals or distributors willaccept the microwave ablation medical devices at a price point that we will deem acceptable.In addition,we may not generate sufficient revenues to cover costs which would have a negative impact on the business,financial results
326、and results of operation.As a result,you may not be able to fully discern the marketdynamics that we are subject to in order to assess our business prospects.We have encountered,and maycontinue to encounter,risks,challenges and uncertainties frequently experienced by companies at an earlystage,inclu
327、ding those relating to our ability to adapt to the industry,to maintain and monetize our customerbase,to introduce new offerings and services and to maintain consistent business growth.If we are unableto successfully address these risks,challenges and uncertainties,our business,financial condition a
328、ndresults of operations could be materially and adversely affected.Our historical operating results may not be representative of future performance.In particular,our high gross profitmargin may not be sustainable.We cannot assure you that our historical operating results,and in particular our high g
329、ross profitmargin,will be indicative of future performance for various reasons,including that the success of ourexisting and new products is uncertain,changes in the market and the regulatory environment,as well as ourability to manage our sales network and the intensified competition in the microwa
330、ve ablation medicaldevice market in China.For example,our profitability for future years may be negatively affected by low-margin sales and competition strategies adopted by our competitors,increasing costs of raw materials andincreasing sale and distribution costs occurring as a result of the expan
331、sion of our sales and distributionnetwork.As a result,our gross profit margin may not be sustainable.Investors should not rely on ourhistorical results as an indication of its future financial or operating performance.We may be unable to obtain,maintain or renew the regulatory filings and registrati
332、on certificates needed tocommercialize our microwave medical devices in a timely manner,or at all.We need to complete regulatory filings or obtain registration certificates for our microwave medicaldevices from the National Medical Products Administration in the PRC(the“NMPA”)or our local branches 1
333、2TABLE OF CONTENTS at the provincial or prefectural city level.In China,medical devices are classified into Class I,Class II andClass III,depending on the degree of risk associated with each medical device and the amount of oversightrequired to ensure safety and effectiveness.Class I medical devices need to be filed with the local branchesat the prefectural city level of the NMPA before they can b
