Sagtec Global Limited Acquires 40% Strategic Stake in Malaya Heritage Holding Limited to Accelerate F&B Ecosystem Expansion and Revenue Growth

Acquisition Expected to Generate Approximately USD 4 Million in Annual Revenue Opportunities and Strengthen Sagtec’s Position as a Leading F&B Technology Solutions Provider

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sagtec Global Limited (“Sagtec” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SAGT), a leading provider of technology solutions for the food and beverage (“F&B”) industry, today announced that it has entered into a definitive investment agreement to acquire a 40% equity interest in Malaya Heritage Holding Limited (“Malaya Heritage”), a Malaysian F&B group with established restaurant operations and expansion plans.

The transaction forms part of Sagtec’s long-term strategy to expand its integrated F&B technology ecosystem by partnering with and investing in operating restaurant businesses that can benefit from the Company’s proprietary technology platforms, digital infrastructure and AI-driven solutions.

The acquisition is expected to create a strategic partnership between Sagtec and Malaya Heritage, enabling the deployment of Sagtec’s technology solutions across Malaya Heritage’s operations while providing Sagtec with direct exposure to the continued growth of the Malaysian F&B sector.

Strategic Rationale

The Board of Directors believes the acquisition will provide significant strategic and commercial benefits to Sagtec, including:

  1. Expansion of Technology Deployment Opportunities
    The acquisition creates opportunities for the implementation of Sagtec’s proprietary Speed+ smart ordering platform, AI-powered SaaS applications, digital payment solutions, customer engagement tools and operational management systems throughout Malaya Heritage’s restaurant network and future outlets. By integrating Sagtec’s technology ecosystem into restaurant operations, the Company expects to increase adoption of its software products and strengthen long-term customer retention.
  2. Estimated USD4 Million Revenue Contribution
    Based on management’s current projections and business plans, the transaction is expected to contribute approximately USD4 million in revenue opportunities to the Sagtec group.
    The anticipated revenue opportunities are expected to arise from a combination of:
    • software subscription revenue;
    • technology implementation and licensing fees;
    • digital ordering and transaction-related services;
    • AI-enabled business solutions;
    • operational support services; and
    • future expansion initiatives undertaken by Malaya Heritage and its subsidiaries.


  3. Strengthening Recurring Revenue Streams
    The Company expects the transaction to increase the proportion of recurring and technology-driven revenue within the group through long-term deployment of its SaaS platforms and digital solutions. Management believes recurring revenue streams provide greater earnings visibility and support long-term shareholder value creation.
  4. Strategic Participation in a Growing F&B Group
    Malaya Heritage has established a presence within Malaysia’s heritage food and beverage segment and is pursuing expansion initiatives aimed at increasing outlet count, operational scale and market reach. Through its 40% ownership interest, Sagtec will participate in the future growth of Malaya Heritage while contributing technology, operational expertise and business development support.
  5. Enhancing Shareholder Value Through Ecosystem Expansion
    The acquisition represents another step in Sagtec’s strategy of building a comprehensive technology-enabled F&B ecosystem. Management believes combining technology capabilities with strategic investments in operating F&B businesses creates opportunities to accelerate growth, generate new revenue streams and enhance long-term value for shareholders.
  6. Potential Future Capital Markets Upside
    Malaya Heritage has expressed its intention to pursue a public listing in 2027, subject to market conditions, corporate readiness and regulatory approvals. Sagtec believes its strategic investment positions the Company to participate in the future growth and potential value appreciation of Malaya Heritage as it progresses through its corporate development plans.
