MARLBOROUGH, Mass., June 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ConnectM Technology Solutions, Inc. (OTCQX:CNTM) ("ConnectM" or the "Company"), a constellation of technology-driven businesses powering the modern energy economy, today announced that BSE Limited has granted Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited (BSE: 539607) ("Blue Cloud") in-principle approval for its previously announced acquisition of ConnectM's India business— clearing the principal remaining regulatory condition for Blue Cloud to issue 160 million equity shares to ConnectM.

Upon completion of the share allotment, ConnectM expects to record the Blue Cloud shares as a ~$30.4 million investment and to recognize a non-cash gain of approximately $18.4 million attributable to ConnectM stockholders. On a pro forma basis, the transaction is expected to lift stockholders' equity to approximately $18.8 million at the effective date — roughly four times the $4–$5 million minimum required for a U.S. national exchange listing.

Illustrative Pro Forma Balance Sheet Highlights

Unaudited and illustrative; assumes the transaction closed effective June 2, 2026. See assumptions below.

($ in millions)	Mar 31, 2026 Actual	Pro Forma (Illus.)
Total assets	39.8	~49.5
Total liabilities	37.9	~30.7
Stockholders' equity	2.0	~18.8
Liabilities-to-equity	~19x	~1.6x
Memo: National exchange minimum SE	—	4–5

"This approval moves a defining piece of our balance-sheet strategy from plan toward reality," said Bhaskar Panigrahi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ConnectM. "The Blue Cloud shares are a substantial, non-dilutive addition to our equity base — value we built in India, redeployed to strengthen ConnectM and support our path to a national exchange."

"Clearing the BSE condition is what turns the India divestiture into a balance-sheet event," added Nayeem Hussain, President. "With this behind us, we are focused on completing the allotment and carrying the benefit through to shareholders."

Blue Cloud's shareholders approved the transaction on May 4, 2026. Upon closing, ConnectM's operations will substantially be concentrated in the United States. The Blue Cloud shares ConnectM receives are expected to be subject to a statutory lock-up period under Indian securities regulations. Closing is anticipated by Q3 2026 and the Company will provide updates as remaining procedural steps are completed.

Assumptions for Illustrative Pro Forma Information

The pro forma information above is unaudited and is presented for illustrative purposes only; it does not purport to represent what the Company's financial position or results would have been had the transaction closed on the date indicated, nor to project future results. It assumes the Blue Cloud share swap closed effective June 2, 2026, with: (i) 160 million Blue Cloud shares recorded at approximately $30.4 million, based on Blue Cloud's share price of INR 18.50 and an INR:USD rate of 97.37 at that date (the implied transaction value at signing was approximately $39.6 million; no separate lock-in or marketability discount has been applied); and (ii) the divestiture of the India operating segment (CMI, CER, and Global Impex Inc.) with total assets of approximately $20.7 million and total liabilities of approximately $7.2 million (net assets of approximately $13.6 million), less approximately $1.5 million of noncontrolling interests, for a fair value of net assets transferred of approximately $12.0 million. The resulting non-cash gain of approximately $18.4 million is attributable to ConnectM stockholders; together with the removal of the related noncontrolling interests, pro forma stockholders' equity is approximately $18.8 million. Final amounts will depend on closing balances, the fair value ultimately assigned to the Blue Cloud shares, foreign-exchange movements, recycling of cumulative translation adjustments, and the final accounting determination under U.S. GAAP.
