Asia FX muted, dollar nurses losses as Trump tariffs take effect
SINGAPORE - Amber International Holding Limited (NASDAQ:AMBR), currently valued at $1.02 billion, announced Monday it has entered into subscription agreements for a $25.5 million private placement with investors including Mile Green, Harvest Capital, Pantera Capital, and Choco Up. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a strong balance sheet with more cash than debt, though it currently trades at premium multiples.
The company, which operates under the brand name "Amber Premium" and provides institutional crypto financial services, plans to use the proceeds to expand its operations in the U.S. and Southeast Asia, according to a press release statement. The expansion comes as the company maintains a healthy current ratio of 1.13, indicating sufficient liquidity to meet short-term obligations, though InvestingPro analysis shows the company is not yet profitable, with an EBITDA of -$3.33 million in the last twelve months.
The funding will support Amber International’s crypto reserve strategy, asset tokenization initiatives in stablecoins and real-world assets, and AI-AgentFi projects, subject to regulatory compliance in relevant jurisdictions.
"This private placement is about forging deeper alignment with strategic investors," said Wayne Huo, CEO of Amber International.
Mile Green, one of the participating investors, is led by a group that includes Chatchaval Jiaravanon, a member of the family controlling The Charoen Pokphand Group Company, Asia’s largest diversified conglomerate.
Pantera Capital, which led Amber Group’s Series A funding in 2019, has reaffirmed its support. Paul Veradittakit, Managing Partner at Pantera Capital, noted that his firm has transacted over $6 billion on the platform to date.
The private placement is expected to close around July 4, 2025. The share issuances are expected to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Regulation S, and the shares may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
