Applicant met the statutory ownership threshold and demonstrated sufficient bona fides and a proper purpose to justify a limited inspection focused on investigating the disproportionate increase in operating expenses and directors' remuneration; balancing transparency against intrusion, the court granted a restricted inspection order for specified documents and time period (circa 2016–2019) and refused overly broad requests or irrelevant categories, with further limitations such as payroll records limited to Hong Kong employees.
