Summary:

  • The Board of Heptamax International Limited decided to terminate the agreement to acquire 40% of Shinmax Products Sdn Bhd after vendors failed to meet key conditions precedent, even after an extension to 18 August 2025.

  • The company determined that waiving these conditions would not be in shareholders’ best interests; accordingly, the Sale & Purchase Agreement and Shareholders’ Agreement have both been terminated.

  • No consideration was paid to vendors, nor were any consideration shares issued; only S$209,000 in professional fees were incurred.

  • Termination is not expected to materially impact net tangible assets or earnings per share for FY2025.

  • Heptamax will continue to pursue its business diversification plans, particularly in automation solutions, import/export trading, and sourcing/procurement of systems and hardware.

  • Further announcements will be made if there are any material developments in ongoing diversification efforts.

  • Shareholders and investors are cautioned to trade carefully and seek advice if uncertain about their actions.
