NewGenIvf explores $400 million real estate tokenization in UAE

BANGKOK - NewGenIvf Group Limited (NASDAQ:NIVF), a small-cap fertility services provider with a market capitalization of $4.5 million and current trading price of $1.04, has secured a strategic plot of land in Ras Al Khaimah’s Beach District, UAE, and is evaluating the feasibility of issuing digital tokens tied to the property, the company announced Tuesday.

The acquisition represents a milestone in the fertility services provider’s previously announced $45 million investment initiative in the UAE real estate market through its subsidiary, NewGenDigital Limited. According to InvestingPro data, the company has seen challenging financial performance, with its stock down nearly 99% year-to-date and currently trading near its 52-week low.

The 110,400 sq. ft. beachfront plot, with an estimated saleable area of approximately 527,750 sq. ft., is projected to generate sales revenue exceeding $400 million. The property’s location is strategically positioned to benefit from regional growth, particularly with the upcoming opening of the Wynn Al Marjan Island integrated resort in early 2027.

NewGenDigital is exploring Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization for the property, which would transform the physical asset into digital tokens on blockchain networks, enabling fractional ownership and increased liquidity. The company stated it does not plan to offer tokens to U.S. persons, and any tokenization would be subject to regulatory approvals from both U.S. and UAE authorities.

"Securing this strategic plot marks a pivotal advancement in NewGenDigital Limited’s blockchain strategy, representing its embrace of cutting-edge digital asset opportunities," said Siu Wing Fung Alfred, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of NewGen. InvestingPro analysis reveals the company faces financial challenges, with a weak overall health score and negative free cash flow.

The UAE has established itself as a hub for blockchain innovation with developments including the Ras Al Khaimah Digital Assets Oasis Free Zone and regulatory frameworks through Dubai’s Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority.

NewGenIvf’s primary business focuses on providing fertility services through clinics in Thailand, Cambodia, and Kyrgyzstan. The company currently generates annual revenue of $5.43 million with a gross profit margin of 33.62%.

Concurrently, NewGen has secured $5.2 million to expand its fertility clinic operations in Dubai, with plans to raise an additional $25.6 million through convertible notes. The new Dubai clinic will feature exclusive Microsort technology and is expected to attract patients from the European Union and India. Additionally, NewGen has announced a 1-for-10 reverse stock split to reduce its outstanding shares, effective on the Nasdaq Global Market. The company is also diversifying into real estate with a $45 million investment in UAE properties near the upcoming Wynn resort in Ras Al Khaimah.
