DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) is being filed by Movella Holdings Inc. (the “Registrant”) to deregister all shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (“Common Stock”), which are unsold under the following Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by the Registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”):

Registration Statement No. 333-271568, filed on May 2, 2023, registering 12,732,592 shares of common stock under the Registrant’s 2022 Stock Incentive Plan and 1,017,550 shares of common stock under the Registrant’s 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

As previously disclosed, on April 1, 2024, the Registrant filed a Notification of Removal From Listing and/or Registration on Form 25 with the SEC to delist the Common Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “Warrants”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) and to deregister the Common Stock and Warrants under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Registrant’s securities were suspended from trading on Nasdaq prior to market open on April 2, 2024 and delisted from Nasdaq on or about April 11, 2024. In connection with the delisting and the deregistration under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act of the Common Stock and Warrants, the Registrant is terminating all offerings of its securities pursuant to its existing registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including the Registration Statement. Pursuant to the undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment to terminate the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and to deregister, as of the effectiveness of this Post-Effective Amendment, any and all shares of Common Stock registered thereunder that remain unsold as of the effectiveness date. As a result of this deregistration and upon the effectiveness of this Post-Effective Amendment, no securities will remain registered for sale pursuant to the Registration Statement.
