InterceptArrowsKeys Property of NumericUpDown Control

I set this property to False so the controls will be ReadOnly (when I set
the ReadOnly property to true) but the arrow keys still .increment/decrement
the value in the NumericUpDown control

Any clue?

I'm not sure why the behavior is that way (I can repro it on my machine).
Another trick is to set the Increment property to 0. That will get the
behavior you're looking for.
