Detailed Reason (s) for cessation
Mr Iqbal Jumabhoy ("Mr Jumabhoy") has served as the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Executive Director of the Company since 23 January 2024.
Having achieved the major milestones of the Company, Mr Jumabhoy thought it would be apt for him to step down as CEO and Executive Director of the Company at this juncture to allow another candidate to lead the Group towards its next phase of development and growth. During his tenure, Mr Jumabhoy guided the Company through the reverse take-over and the crucial refinancing exercises. He is instrumental in building a strong operations team and the setting up of needed systems and infrastructure of the Company.
Notwithstanding his stepping down, Mr Jumabhoy will be appointed Senior Advisor to the Board for a period of three (3) months commencing from 1 August 2025. As Senior Advisor, Mr Jumabhoy will continue to provide invaluable inputs and advice, and will be working closely with the Board to achieve a smooth transition and handover.
The Board and Management would like to express their appreciation to Mr Jumabhoy for his contributions and guidance to the Board and the Company respectively. In the interim, Mr Weerachai Amornrat-Tana, Vice Chairman of the Board and Non-Independent Non-Executive Director of the Company, will with effect from 1 August 2025 be appointed Acting Chief Executive Officer of the Company until such time when a suitable replacement is found.
After having interviewed Mr Jumabhoy and to the best of its knowledge, the Company's Sponsor, PrimePartners Corporate Finance Pte. Ltd., is satisfied that save as disclosed in this announcement, there are no other material reasons for the cessation of Mr Jumabhoy as the CEO and Executive Director of the Company.
