Basel Medical Group Ltd BMGL announced on Friday that it has entered exclusive negotiations to acquire $1 billion worth of Bitcoin, marking a bold move to strengthen its financial foundation while advancing its healthcare expansion plans across Asia.
The company is in advanced talks with a group of institutional backers and affluent crypto investors to execute the acquisition via a share-swap arrangement.
If finalized, the transaction would significantly diversify BMGL’s treasury assets and mark one of the most sizable balance sheet overhauls in the Asia-Pacific healthcare space.
The proposed $1 billion Bitcoin acquisition is designed to give BMGL robust capital strength to support its aggressive growth across emerging Asian markets.
