SHENZHEN, CHINA – The board of directors of China Medical System Holdings Limited (the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”) announces the proposed secondary listing of the Company’s ordinary shares (“Shares”) on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (the “SGX-ST”) by way of introduction (the “Proposed Secondary Listing”). The Proposed Secondary Listing, if proceeded, will not involve issuance of new shares, and the Shares will continue to be primarily listed and traded on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange thereafter.
The Company has submitted, on a confidential basis, an application to the SGX-ST in relation to the Proposed Secondary Listing. As of the date of this announcement, the Company has not received the eligibility-to-list letter (“ETL”) from the SGX-ST in respect of the Proposed Secondary Listing.
On June 24, 2025, the Company received the Notice of Overseas Issuance and Listing Filing from the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”) in respect of the Proposed Secondary Listing.
The Directors believe that upon completion of the proposed secondary listing on the SGX-ST, the Group will be able to attract funds focusing on Asia-Pacific investments and local capital in Southeast Asia, thereby optimizing the shareholder structure. At the same time, it will also have a more profound impact on the Group’s business development in Southeast Asia and the Middle East. The Group has established Singapore as its regional headquarters for its Southeast Asia and Middle East business, and has set up companies in Singapore covering the entire pharmaceutical value chain of R&D, manufacturing, commercialization and investment, including CMS R&D as the international independent R&D company, PharmaGend as the pharmaceutical manufacturing CMO/CDMO company, Rxilient as the pharmaceutical development, registration and commercialization company, and Singapore Venture Capital as the industrial investment company. These companies work together to provide Southeast Asian patients with more high-quality and affordable treatment options, contribute to the development of the pharmaceutical industry chain in Southeast Asia, enhance the Group’s global reputation and market position, promote the implementation of the Group’s “Glocalization” strategy, and bring additional growth to the Group.
The Company will make further announcements with respect to the Proposed Secondary Listing as and when necessary in compliance with the applicable laws and regulations.
The Proposed Secondary Listing is subject to the SGX-ST granting an ETL and the fulfilment of any conditions set out in the ETL. As such, there is no assurance that the Proposed Secondary Listing will proceed to completion. Shareholders and potential investors of the Company are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the securities of the Company.
