Singapore, Oct. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Basel Medical Group Ltd (NASDAQ:BMGL) (the "Company") today closed its registered direct offering of 6,000,000 units, raising gross proceeds of US$7.98 million and estimated net proceeds of approximately US$7.28 million. The Company intends to use all of the net proceeds from this offering for general working capital purposes, mergers and acquisitions and other general corporate purposes.

As previously announced, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement with Cathay Securities, Inc., as the placement agent (the "Placement Agent"), as well as a securities purchase agreement with certain purchasers, each dated October 7, 2026, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold 6,000,000 units (the "Units"), at a public offering price of US$1.33 per Unit, each consisting of one ordinary share with no par value (each an "Ordinary Share" and collectively the "Ordinary Shares") or one Pre-Funded Warrant in lieu thereof (defined below) of the Company, and one warrant ("Common Warrant"), each to purchase one Ordinary Share. No Pre-Funded Warrants were issued in the offering.

The Ordinary Shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "BMGL". The Common Warrants will not be listed or quoted on any exchange. The Ordinary Shares issued and to be issued upon warrant exercise and pursuant to this offering are registered pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-298988) (the "Registration Statement").

Each Common Warrant is exercisable immediately on the date of issuance at an exercise price per share equal to 110% of the public offering price of each Unit sold in this offering and will expire five years from the date of issuance. A holder of Common Warrants may, at any time following the closing of this offering within the exercise period and in its sole discretion, exercise its Common Warrants in whole or in part by means of a zero cash exercise price option, in which the holder will receive the number of Ordinary Shares that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the Common Warrant, without payment of additional consideration, or a total of 6,000,000 additional Ordinary Shares in the aggregate. As a result, we will likely not receive any additional funds and do not expect to receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Common Warrants. If all of the 6,000,000 Common Warrants offered to investors in this offering are exercised on a zero cash basis, an aggregate of 6,000,000 Ordinary Shares would be issued upon such zero cash exercise without payment to us of any additional cash.

Immediately prior to this offering, the Company had a total of 1,582,111 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding. Immediately upon the completion of the offering, the Company has a total of 7,582,111 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding and a total of 6,000,000 Common Warrants issued and outstanding.

The executive officers, directors and certain shareholders beneficially owning 5.0% or more of the Company’s ordinary shares prior to this offering have entered into lock-up agreements in connection with the offering. Under these agreements, the Company and each of these persons may not, without the prior written approval of the Placement Agent, offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of or hedge Ordinary Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions. The restrictions contained in these agreements will be in effect for a period of 180 days for the Company and 180 days for the executive officers, directors and such shareholders, after the date of the closing of this offering. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days following the closing date of this offering, it will not, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, directly or indirectly issue, offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of any Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into, exercisable for, or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, other than a prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) in connection with this offering, supplements or amendments to registration statements or supplements previously filed. The Company has also agreed that, during the same 180 days, it will not enter into or consummate any financing or capital-raising transaction, including any equity line of credit, equity financing, convertible bond, convertible note, other equity-linked financing, or variable rate transaction, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent.
