Securing Maryland-Based Drug-Substance Facility and Existing Commercial Orders to Scale the Group’s Integrated Technology Platform

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 May 2026 – Bora Pharmaceuticals (“Bora” or “Bora Group”; TWSE: 6472; OTCQX: BORAY) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved the acquisition of the GMP manufacturing operations, including the CDMO business, of MacroGenics, Inc. (NASDAQ: MGNX), for total consideration of US$122.5 million, subject to customary working capital adjustments, and a contingent consideration of up to $5 million based on future customer orders. The transaction includes a biologics drug substance manufacturing facility located in Rockville, Maryland and an associated warehousing center in Frederick, Maryland. Upon closing of the acquisition, the Company will sign a long-term CDMO Service Agreement with MacroGenics.

Following closing, Bora Group intends to leverage the Rockville Site in cooperation with Tanvex Biopharma (TWSE: 6541), which operates the Group’s biologics CDMO franchise under the “Bora Biologics” brand. Together with Bora’s sterile drug product capabilities, this is expected to scale the Group’s end-to-end biologics platform.

The Rockville facility has operated as an outsource manufacturing partner since 2022 and is equipped with five 2,000-liter and two 500-liter single-use bioreactors and fully integrated QC and analytical laboratories and has been inspected by both the U.S. FDA and Japan’s PMDA. From the transaction, Bora is expected to assume a substantial backlog for the size of its Bora Biologics CDMO business, including commercial-stage monoclonal antibody programs, clinical-stage programs, and a strong project pipeline. Commercial manufacturing currently accounts for more than half of the site’s revenue.

“This acquisition marks a pivotal step in strengthening Bora’s integrated biologics CDMO platform in the United States”, said Bobby Sheng, Chairman and CEO of Bora Group. “With the addition of the Rockville site, Bora Biologics total drug substance capacity would be 20,000-liter (SUB) and Bora Group will integrate our in-house DS (Drug Substance) and DP (Drug Product) capabilities and network investments over the next 12 to 18 months to offer global biotech customers a seamless offering allowing customers to advance programs from development through commercial supply with one single partner.”

Bora’s Board of Directors has authorized the Chairman to finalize the transaction in line with market conditions and the regulatory environment. For the year ended December 31, 2025, MacroGenics reported contract manufacturing revenue of $52.6 million.

• Innomotics wins several orders to provide motor and drive technology for eLNG projects, totaling a volume in the higher double-digit million EUR range
• Innomotics advances electrification of LNG production with eLNG solutions based on electric drive systems
• Significant operational, environmental, and financial benefits compared to conventional turbine-based LNG plants
• Enables decarbonization and supports global transition to sustainable energy systems

NUREMBERG, GERMANY – Newsaktuell – 11 May 2026 – Innomotics, a globally leading supplier of electric motor and large drive systems, has won several major orders for electrified LNG projects in Europe, Canada, Middle East and Australia. The total volume for all orders is in the higher double-digit million EUR range.

Innomotics is driving the transformation of LNG production with its innovative eLNG solutions. By replacing conventional gas turbine-based liquefaction processes with electrified drive systems, LNG operators can significantly increase efficiency, reduce emissions, and lower operating costs.

As global demand for cleaner energy continues to grow, LNG remains a key component of the energy mix. However, traditional LNG production is energy-intensive and associated with high greenhouse gas emissions. eLNG addresses these challenges by using electricity – including renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, and hydropower – to liquefy natural gas, enabling a more sustainable and efficient production process.

The electrification of LNG plants is a key step in reducing reliance on fossil fuels and achieving decarbonization targets. Electric drive systems from Innomotics offer system efficiencies of up to 95%, significantly exceeding the performance of conventional gas turbines. At the same time, operators benefit from reduced maintenance requirements, with systems capable of running up to five years without scheduled shutdowns, and increased plant availability of up to 99.9%.

By integrating high-voltage motors and variable speed drives across the entire LNG value chain – from compression and refrigeration to storage and gas treatment – Innomotics enables a fully electrified production process. When powered by renewable energy, eLNG solutions can eliminate direct CO₂ emissions and reduce annual emissions by up to 500,000 tons, supporting operators in meeting regulatory requirements and sustainability goals.

“Electrification is the foundation for a sustainable future of LNG production. With our eLNG solutions, we enable operators to significantly improve efficiency, reduce emissions, and enhance reliability across the entire process. This not only strengthens competitiveness but also accelerates the transition towards net-zero operations,” says Michael Reichle, CEO of Innomotics.

He adds, “Operators are under increasing pressure to balance sustainability with profitability. Our electric drive systems deliver a compelling business case by lowering lifecycle costs, minimizing downtime, and ensuring maximum operational performance in demanding LNG environments.”

Three new Laguna Phuket developments – spanning lakeside living, golf-front design and Angsana-branded luxury – to be showcased at Park Lane Hong Kong on 16–17 MayCaption

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 May 2026 – Banyan Group Residences is bringing three of its most anticipated new residential launches to Hong Kong this month, with a two-day sales exhibition taking place at Park Lane Hong Kong (Canvas, 26F) on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 May 2026, from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm. The event offers Hong Kong buyers a rare opportunity to explore and invest in some of Phuket’s most compelling new addresses, with dedicated sales teams on hand for private consultations.

The exhibitions follow a year of record residential sales for Banyan Group Residences, as growing numbers of global investors look to Phuket as a safe haven for capital – drawn by the island’s political stability, strong rental yields, year-round lifestyle appeal, and the relative value it continues to offer against comparable markets. Demand has been particularly robust from buyers across Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, with Hong Kong remaining one of the Group’s most consistent source markets.

The three projects on show represent some of the most exciting new additions to Laguna Phuket – Asia’s premier integrated resort destination – and span a range of living concepts, price points, and design inspirations, united by the hallmark quality and hospitality expertise of Banyan Group Residences, Asia’s leading branded residential developer by volume.

“Hong Kong has consistently been one of our strongest buyer markets, and we look forward to welcoming buyers in person to discover what we believe is an exceptional line-up of new homes,” said Stuart Reading, Managing Director of Banyan Group Residences. “Whether you’re looking for a holiday retreat, a permanent base in a world-class resort community, or a smart long-term investment, this exhibition offers something genuinely compelling. High-quality property in a prime location at Laguna Phuket still represents outstanding value compared to equivalent homes in Hong Kong or other major cities.”

Bellaguna Lake Residences

Brand new blocks of Bellaguna Lake Residences will be revealed for the first time at the exhibition. Set beside a shimmering lake within Laguna Phuket – steps from Bang Tao Beach – the development takes its design cues from the sleek lines of a contemporary luxury yacht. Five elegantly elongated buildings feature dark wave-like façades and warm, light-filled interiors, with generous private terraces overlooking the lagoon. Residences include one- to three-bedroom condominiums and two- to three-bedroom penthouses with private rooftop pools, as well as a brand new category of two-bedroom residences with private pool.

Bellaguna is Banyan Group Residences’ newest residential brand, conceived specifically for premium year-round living outside of hotel inventory – yet fully supported by the Group’s renowned hospitality management standards.

Bellaguna Golf Residences

Set on land that once formed part of Phuket’s historic tin-mining landscape, Bellaguna Golf Residences draws its design identity from that heritage – soft horizontal lines and sculpted contours reinterpreted through a contemporary tropical lens. Low-rise buildings unfold amid lush gardens and a signature free-form pool, overlooking the fairways of the championship Laguna Golf Phuket course. A brand new block has also just been released for this project, which features a compact one-bedroom configuration, alongside one- to three-bedroom condominiums and two- to three-bedroom penthouses with private pools and sunset golf views.

Angsana Golf Residences Topaz

Inspired by the clarity and elegance of the topaz gemstone, Angsana Golf Residences Topaz comprises three gracefully curved low-rise buildings set within Laguna Phuket, with Sino-Portuguese design accents that subtly reference Phuket’s cultural heritage. The development offers two- and three-bedroom residences and exclusive penthouses with private rooftop pools, all enjoying panoramic views of the golf course, mountains, and the Andaman Sea. A signature rooftop ring-shaped pool completes the picture.

All three projects now have show units available to view at Laguna Property Sales Gallery

Banyan Living

Banyan Group has recently launched Banyan Living, a residential rental and marketing platform created to support owners of branded residences across the Group’s portfolio, while offering guests a professionally managed alternative to traditional home‑sharing platforms.

Developed as a structured, hospitality-led rental ecosystem, Banyan Living enables private owners to generate income from their residences, while providing guests who rent the properties assurance of the design integrity and professional service standards associated with Banyan Group.

Why Phuket, Why Now

Phuket continues to attract growing international interest as both a lifestyle destination and an investment market. Within Laguna Phuket, nationals of some 70 countries have chosen to make the resort community their home, drawn by year-round tropical living, world-class amenities, international schools, medical facilities, and a level of quality and security that is difficult to match elsewhere in the region.

Banyan Group Residences anticipates launching up to USD 1 billion in new luxury residential projects in Phuket over the next two to three years, reflecting the Group’s confidence in the market and the enduring strength of demand from international buyers.

Prospective buyers are welcome to visit the exhibition at Park Lane Hong Kong, Canvas (26F), on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 May 2026, between 11:00 am and 6:00 pm. Private appointments can be arranged in advance by contacting the team directly.

Sarvam has partnered with YCP India to help enterprises move artificial intelligence projects from small pilots into structured, organisation-wide deployments aimed at measurable business gains.

The collaboration brings together Sarvam’s full-stack sovereign AI platform and YCP India’s consulting, digital transformation and execution capabilities. The two companies plan to work with businesses on use-case selection, technology integration, change management and deployment across functions where AI can cut costs, improve productivity or strengthen customer engagement.

The partnership comes as companies across sectors are trying to convert interest in generative AI into practical results. Many organisations have tested chatbots, document automation, coding assistants and customer-service tools, but have struggled to scale them because of legacy systems, data-quality issues, compliance concerns and weak alignment with business priorities. Sarvam and YCP India are positioning their alliance as a response to that gap, with an emphasis on deployment rather than experimentation.

Sarvam’s platform covers language, voice and multimodal systems, with a focus on operating conditions in India, including regulatory requirements, data sovereignty and cost-efficient deployment. That positioning is significant for banks, insurers, retailers, healthcare providers, manufacturers and public-facing enterprises that need AI tools capable of working across languages, accents and workflow environments.

YCP India is expected to bring sector knowledge, programme management and strategy advisory support. The company’s role will include helping clients identify high-impact use cases, redesign workflows, manage adoption within teams and ensure that AI deployments are tied to commercial outcomes rather than isolated technology trials.

The partnership will focus on three broad areas. The first is identifying and prioritising AI opportunities that have clear business value. This could include automating customer queries, improving internal knowledge retrieval, digitising documents, supporting frontline staff or building multilingual service channels. The second is co-delivering integrated solutions that connect Sarvam’s technology stack with enterprise systems. The third is joint execution, where YCP teams work with Sarvam engineers to support implementation and change management.

The timing reflects a wider shift in the AI market. Enterprises are moving from proof-of-concept work to production systems, but the transition requires more than access to a large language model. Companies need governance frameworks, reliable data pipelines, security controls, integration with enterprise resource planning and customer relationship management platforms, and clear accountability for outcomes. Without these elements, AI projects risk remaining confined to innovation teams without affecting day-to-day operations.

Sarvam has emerged as one of the key domestic AI companies building models and applications designed for the country’s linguistic and business environment. Its products include speech-to-text, text-to-speech, translation, document digitisation and conversational AI tools. The company has also been associated with broader efforts to develop sovereign AI capabilities, including foundational models built for secure, population-scale use.

The enterprise opportunity is expanding rapidly. The country’s AI market is expected to grow strongly through 2027, supported by enterprise technology spending, a deepening talent base and rising investment in AI-led transformation. Technology services firms and global capability centres are also pushing generative AI into software development, business process management, IT consulting and customer operations.

For Sarvam, the alliance with YCP India could strengthen access to boardroom-level transformation projects, where decisions are shaped by business value, risk controls and execution capacity. For YCP India, the tie-up adds a technology partner focused on locally relevant AI capabilities at a time when clients are demanding practical deployment roadmaps rather than advisory reports alone.

The challenge will be delivery. Enterprises often face fragmented data, uneven digital maturity and uncertainty over how AI should be governed. Regulated sectors also need clarity on privacy, auditability and accountability when automated systems influence customer interactions or internal decisions. The partnership will have to demonstrate that sovereign AI can be not only locally relevant but also robust, secure and commercially competitive against global platforms.

Cost will be another deciding factor. Many businesses are assessing whether AI systems can deliver enough savings or revenue gains to justify investment in infrastructure, integration and training. Sarvam’s emphasis on cost-efficient deployment could appeal to companies that want AI capabilities without depending entirely on expensive global model providers.
