We screen and analyze exoplanet candidates around A-type stars (defined as T_eff between 7500 and 10,000 K) observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite to evaluate their likelihood of being genuine exoplanets. Our analysis involves transit signal searches, light-curve detrending, estimation of nearby-source contamination, and calculation of false-positive probabilities (FPPs). Among the 18 candidates analyzed, four exhibit relatively low FPP values (<15%). Two candidates are excluded from further analysis due to the lack of stellar parameter data. Six candidates show no clearly detectable transit signals, likely due to shallow or weak features, while six candidates exhibit relatively high FPP values, leaving their authenticity uncertain. Among the four low-FPP targets, two-TIC 48031665 and TIC 259230140-stand out as the most promising. TIC 48031665 shows a very shallow transit signal but has a very low FPP and minimal nearby starlight contamination. TIC 259230140 displays a clear U-shaped transit light curve typical of planetary transits, along with slightly higher yet still low FPP and contamination levels. These two objects are therefore considered the most promising candidates identified in this study.
