SoFi CEO enters prepaid forward contract on 1.5 million shares
SINGAPORE - YY Group Holding Limited (NASDAQ:YYGH), a $72 million market cap provider of on-demand workforce solutions and integrated facilities management services, announced Monday the designation of its dual-engine artificial intelligence algorithm as the company’s core strategic asset for future growth. The company, which has shown strong revenue growth of 29% in the past year according to InvestingPro data, is making this strategic move despite operating with relatively thin gross margins of 13%.
The initiative focuses on two primary directions: enhancing operational efficiency through AI and launching a next-generation AI-powered recruitment platform, according to a company press release. InvestingPro analysis shows the company maintains healthy liquidity with a current ratio of 1.69, providing financial flexibility to support these technological investments.
The operational enhancements include automated workforce verification to accelerate onboarding processes, AI-powered customer support within the YY Circle application, and smart attendance assurance utilizing historical behavioral data to improve service reliability.
Simultaneously, YY Group is developing an AI-driven recruitment platform to enter the full-time hiring market. The platform features an AI Digital Interviewer that conducts structured asynchronous interviews using natural language processing and large language models. Additional capabilities include automated résumé parsing, intelligent job matching, and a candidate evaluation engine.
"AI is not just a tool for efficiency; it is a strategic growth engine for YY Group’s next stage of development," said Mike Fu, Chief Executive Officer of YY Group. "Our operational upgrades will enable us to handle more transactions, accelerate workforce matching, and respond to client needs more effectively."
The company expects these initiatives to enhance customer retention, attract new clients, and create additional revenue channels. The recruitment platform will initially offer full-time hiring capabilities, with plans to later integrate part-time recruitment into the existing YY Circle platform.

In other recent news, YY Group Holding Limited has made significant strides in its business operations. The company announced the launch of a robotics integration initiative aimed at enhancing service delivery across its core service lines. This initiative will initially focus on implementing robotic solutions in hospitality, cleaning, security, and façade maintenance. In addition, YY Group has expanded its integrated facility management platform by acquiring Singapore’s Pesticide Pest Control, a company with over 30 years of operational history. The acquisition, which closed on July 1, will see the rebranding of the acquired company to Pest Fighter Management Pte. Ltd. This move adds pest control capabilities to YY Group’s existing services, which include cleaning, landscaping, maintenance, and security. These developments underscore YY Group’s commitment to innovation and expansion within the industry.
