1. INTRODUCTION

  • 1.1 The board of directors (the “ Board ” or “ Directors ”) of the Company wishes to announce that the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Advance Digital Healthcare Pte. Ltd. (the “ Purchaser ” or “ ADH ”) has entered into a share sale and purchase agreement on 22 July 2025 (the “ SPA ”) with Dr. Yoon Kam Hon (the “ Vendor ”), pursuant to which the Vendor shall sell, and the Purchaser shall purchase 80,000 ordinary shares (the “ Sale Shares ”), representing 50% of the total issued and paid-up share capital of Rheumatology Associates Pte. Ltd. (“ RA ”), for a total consideration of S$5,500,000 (the “ Consideration ”) (the “ Acquisition ”). Upon completion of the Acquisition, the Vendor will continue to hold the remaining 50% of the total issued and paid-up share capital of RA and retain control of RA. Accordingly, the Company will apply equity accounting for the investment in RA.

  • 1.2 ADH was incorporated on 21 July 2025 with an issued and paid-up share capital of S$600,000 and its principal business is clinics and other general medical services. The incorporation of ADH was funded internally and is not expected to have any material impact on the net tangible assets (“ NTA ”) per share or loss per share (“ LPS ”) of the Group for the financial year ending 30 June 2026.

  • 1.3 The Acquisition will be funded through a combination of internal resources of the Group, the issuance of the Consideration Shares and further fundraising (if necessary).

2. INFORMATION ON RA AND THE VENDOR

  • 2.1 RA was incorporated in Singapore in 2003. RA is, in so far, the only heartland-based integrated specialist medical and therapy centre in Singapore that focus on arthritis and rheumatism. Based on the audited financial statements provided by RA, the revenue and EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortisation) achieved for the past 5 financial years were as follows:
1 Julyto 30 June(“FY”)
FY2020 FY2021 FY2022 FY2023 FY2024
S$’Mil S$’Mil S$’Mil S$’Mil S$’Mil
Net Tangible Assets 0.25 0.12 0.18 0.16 0.18
Revenue 4.98 6.06 6.66 7.51 7.64
EBITDA 1.71 1.23 1.00 2.42 2.12

2.2 The Vendor is a medical doctor and is not related to the Company and the Group, any of the Directors and substantial shareholders of the Company, as well as their respective associates.

  • 2.2 The Vendor was introduced to the Purchaser by Mr Steven Yoon, sibling of the Vendor (the “ Introducer ”). The Company has agreed to pay the Introducer a finder fee on a success basis amounting to S$220,000, representing 4% of the Consideration (“ Finder Fee ”). The Finder Fee shall be due and payable upon the disbursement of the Consideration by the Company. In the event the Consideration is disbursed in multiple tranches, the Finder Fee shall be payable pro-rated to the value of the disbursed amount in each tranche. The introducer is not related to any of the Directors or substantial shareholders of the Company, as well as their respective associates.

3. RATIONALE FOR THE ACQUISITION

  • 3.1 The Group has been actively seeking new opportunities to boost growth and enhance long-term shareholder value. The Acquisition is in line with this objective, as it is expected to provide an additional revenue stream and contribute positively to the Group’s overall financial performance.

  • 3.2 RA is a well-established, profitable entity with a 20-year operating track record. Its strong performance supports the Group’s objective of delivering sustainable returns and long-term shareholder value. With plans to franchise its integrated care model across heartland locations, RA is positioned to significantly scale its footprint and revenue over the next five years.

  • 3.3 RA is the only heartland-based provider offering full-spectrum rheumatology care outside Singapore’s traditional hospital corridors, improving access, reducing wait times, and enhancing affordability. Led by the Vendor, a respected consultant and industry innovator, RA is known for its high clinical standards and use of advanced, non-invasive therapies.

  • 3.4 The partnership will leverage on Artificial Intelligence (“ AI ”)-driven diagnostic tools developed by Digital Life Line Pte. Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, to support early detection of osteoarthritis and other chronic conditions, enabling scalable franchise growth, higher patient throughput, and reduced specialist constraints.

  • 3.5 Singapore’s rapidly ageing population, projected to include one in four citizens projected to be aged 65 or older by 2030[1] , is expected to drive an increase in demand for specialist rheumatism and arthritis care. These chronic, age-related illnesses require long-term management and are highly prevalent among the elderly. However, public healthcare infrastructure remains limited in meeting this need, creating a strong opportunity for private sector providers to step in and expand access to specialised care.

4. SALIENT TERMS OF THE SPA

4.1 Sale Shares

The Sale Shares, being 80,000 ordinary shares in the capital of RA, represent 50% of the issued and paid-up share capital of the Company, which are legally and beneficially owned by the Vendor.

4.2 Consideration

The aggregate Consideration of S$5,500,000 shall be satisfied by:

  • (a) the allotment and issuance of 250,000,000 ordinary shares in the capital of the DISA Limited, being the holding company of the Purchaser, to the Vendor (the “ Consideration Shares ”) at the issue price of S$0.01 per Consideration Share (“ Issue Price ”), which represents a premium of 900% to the volume weighted average price of the Company’s shares (“ Shares ”) (“ VWAP ”) of S$0.001 per Share for trades done on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (“ SGX-ST ”) on 21 July 2025, being the last full market day prior to the date of the SPA. The Consideration Shares shall be free from all claims and Encumbrances and with all rights, dividends, entitlements and advantages attaching thereto as at and from the Completion Date. This represents a total consideration of S$2,500,000, to be issued on the Completion Date (as defined below);

  • (b) the payment of S$500,000 in cash to the Vendor on the Completion Date;

  • (c) the payment of S$1,000,000 in cash to the Vendor on the date falling 9 months after the Completion Date, together with interest thereon at the rate of 5.0% per annum; and

  • (d) the payment of S$1,500,000 in cash to the Vendor on the date falling 12 months after the Completion Date, together with interest thereon at the rate of 5.0% per annum.

The Consideration and the Issue Price were arrived at following arm’s length negotiations between the parties to the SPA (the “ Parties ”) and on a “willing seller-willing buyer” basis, after taking into account, inter alia , the rationale for the Acquisition set out in paragraph 3 of this Announcement, the historical earnings of RA, the potential future growth of RA, historical trading prices of the Shares and the prevailing market.

4.3 Consideration Shares

  • (a) The allotment and issuance of 250,000,000 Consideration Shares, represent approximately 1.81% of the existing issued and paid-up share capital (excluding treasury shares and subsidiary holdings) of DISA Limited as at the date of this announcement and approximately 1.77% of the enlarged share capital (including the Consideration Shares but excluding treasury shares and subsidiary holdings) of DISA Limited, assuming no change to the existing issued and paid-up share capital of DISA Limited on the date of allotment and issuance of the Consideration Shares. The Consideration Shares shall, when issued and allotted, rank pari passu in all respects with the then existing shares.

  • (b) The Consideration Shares will be issued and allotted pursuant to and within the limits of the general share issue mandate (the “ General Mandate ”) granted by Shareholders at the annual general meeting of the Company held on 25 October 2024 (“ 2024 AGM ”). The General Mandate authorises the Directors to allot and issue new Shares not exceeding 100% of the total number of issued Shares (excluding treasury shares and subsidiary holdings) (subject to such manner of calculation as may be prescribed by the SGX-ST) as at the date of the 2024 AGM, of which the aggregate number of Shares be issued other than on a pro rata basis shall not exceed 50% of the total number of issued Shares (excluding treasury shares and subsidiary holdings). As at the date of the General Mandate, the Company had 10,506,683,403 Shares. On 20 March 2025, the Company issued and allotted 182,000,000 Shares pursuant to the exercise of options under Employee Share Option Scheme 2010 (“ ESOS 2010 ”) which were granted, outstanding and subsisting as at the date of the 2024 AGM. Please refer to the announcement dated 20 March 2025 for more details. In accordance with Rule 806(3) of the Listing Manual Section B: Rules of Catalist of the SGX-ST (the “ Catalist Rules ”) and the ordinary resolution in relation to the General Mandate approved at the 2024 AGM, adjustment may be made to include the new shares arising from the exercise of such options. Accordingly, as at the date of this announcement, the maximum number of Shares allowed to be issued on a non-pro rata basis under the General Mandate is 5,344,341,702 Shares. However, there was an issuance of 3,151,120,014 new Shares on 20 June 2025 in relation to the Rights Cum Warrants Issue as announced on 23 June 2025. Accordingly, as at the date of this announcement, the maximum number of Shares allowed to be issued on a non-pro rata basis under the General Mandate is 2,193,221,668 Shares. As the proposed issue and allotment of 250,000,000 Consideration Shares falls within the limit of the General Mandate, specific shareholders’ approval is not required.

  • (c) The Consideration Shares will not (i) be issued and allotted to any person who is a Director or a substantial shareholder of the Company or any other person in the categories set out in Rule 812(1) of the Catalist Rules, or (ii) result in any transfer of controlling interest in the Company.

Not applicable(5)

Notes:

  • (1) Not applicable as the transaction relates to an acquisition.

  • (2) As the financial information of RA for HY2025 is not ready as at the date of this announcement, the Company has computed the relevant relative figure based on the average net profit before tax attributable to 50% equity interest in RA for FY2024 of S$434,608 and the net loss before tax of the Group for HY2025 of approximately S$1,362,000. The Company has obtained confirmation from the Vendor that the level of profitability is consistent with that of prior financial years and will provide the management accounts of RA for HY2025 by 25 July 2025. The Company will issue an update announcement upon receipt of the management accounts of RA for HY2025 should the net profit before tax attributable to 50% equity interest in RA for HY2025 is materially different from the estimated figure herein.

  • (3) Pursuant to Paragraph 3.2(b) of Practice Note 10A, any deferred consideration that may be payable shall be included in the aggregate value of the consideration. Pursuant to Rule 1003(3) of the Catalist Rules, where the consideration is in the form of shares, the value of the consideration shall be determined by reference either to the market value of such shares or the net asset value (“ NAV ”) represented by such shares, whichever is higher. In this case,

  • (a) the aggregate Consideration under the SPA is S$5,500,000;

  • (b) the sum of cash consideration of S$500,000, deferred consideration (inclusive of interest payment) of S$2,612,500 and the market value of the 250,000,000 Consideration Shares is S$250,000 based on VWAP of S$0.001 on 21 July 2025, which is the last full market day on which the Shares were traded prior to the date of the SPA; and

  • (c) the sum of cash consideration of S$500,000, deferred consideration (inclusive of interest payment) of S$2,612,500 and the NAV represented by 250,000,000 Consideration Shares is S$5,782 (computed based on the NAV per share of the Group of S$0.00002 as at 31 December 2024).

Based on the above, for the purpose of Catalist Rule 1006(c), the value of the consideration used to compute the relative figure is S$5,500,000, being the highest of (a) to (c) above.

  • (4) Based on the number of new shares to be issued by the Company as consideration for the Acquisition of 250,000,000 Consideration Shares and the Company’s market capitalisation of S$13,839,803,417 which is based on the Company’s issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares and subsidiary holdings) of 13,839,803,417 shares and VWAP of S$0.001 on 21 July 2025, which is the last full market day on which the Shares were traded prior to the date of the SPA.

Accordingly, the Acquisition constitutes a discloseable transaction and no shareholders’ approval is required.
