NewGen secures $5.2 million for Dubai fertility clinic expansion

BANGKOK - NewGenIvf Group Limited (NASDAQ: NIVF), an Asia-based provider of fertility services, with a current market capitalization of $1 million and shares trading at $0.59, has announced securing $5.2 million in strategic funding to support its expansion into the United Arab Emirates. The company’s stock has experienced significant volatility, declining over 99% in the past year. InvestingPro analysis reveals 16 additional key insights about NIVF’s market position and future prospects. The company aims to raise up to $30.8 million through funding arrangements with an investor for growth initiatives, including the launch of a state-of-the-art fertility clinic in Dubai.

The latest funding tranche, amounting to $2 million, was obtained under the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement with the investor, as per the company’s 6-K filing with the SEC on April 3, 2025. The senior convertible note carries a 14.75% annual interest rate, with provisions for adjustments. According to InvestingPro data, NIVF operates with a significant debt burden, with total debt reaching $6.4 million and a concerning current ratio of 0.28, indicating potential liquidity challenges. Additionally, on April 1, 2025, NewGen entered into a new agreement to potentially sell additional convertible notes totaling up to $25.6 million.

NewGen plans to leverage the recently acquired exclusive Microsort technology at the new Dubai clinic, offering a comprehensive suite of fertility services. The UAE’s regulatory framework permits various treatments, including IVF with gender selection, egg donation, and surrogacy. The clinic is expected to cater not only to local patients but also to individuals from the European Union and neighboring regions like India, where there is significant demand for family balancing services.

Construction of the Dubai facility is set to commence in the second quarter, with the opening targeted for the fourth quarter of the current year. NewGen’s CEO, Mr. Siu Wing Fung Alfred, emphasized the strategic funding as a key milestone in the company’s global expansion and long-term growth.

NewGen, with clinics across Thailand, Cambodia, and Kyrgyzstan, provides infertility and assisted reproductive technology treatments, along with egg and sperm donation and surrogacy in respective jurisdictions. The company’s management team boasts over a decade of experience in the fertility industry. Despite generating revenue of $5.68 million in the last twelve months, NIVF’s financial health score is rated as WEAK by InvestingPro, with the stock currently trading below its Fair Value.

In other recent news, NewGenIvf Group Limited announced the termination of its proposed reverse merger with European Wellness Investment Holdings Limited due to the latter’s failure to provide audited financial statements by the deadline. This decision allows NewGen to focus on other market opportunities, including its recent acquisition of Microsort and the launch of a lifetime egg-freezing service. Concurrently, NewGen has regained compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement, having maintained a share price of $1.00 or higher for ten consecutive business days. This compliance has also facilitated the company’s transition from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market. To meet Nasdaq’s listing standards, NewGen executed a reverse stock split, consolidating every twenty shares into one, effective February 11, 2025. This strategic move reduced the number of outstanding shares significantly, aiding in compliance with Nasdaq’s rules. The company’s management, with over a decade of industry experience, continues to operate clinics across Thailand, Cambodia, and Kyrgyzstan. These developments suggest stabilization and potential recovery for NewGen in maintaining its market position.
