BPH Global Sheds China Bird’s Nest Unit to Focus on Seaweed Business

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

The latest announcement is out from Stemcell United Ltd. ( (AU:BP8) ).

BPH Global has agreed to sell its China-based bird’s nest business, operated through Foshan Gedi Shi Biotechnology Co., Ltd., to two existing employees and directors of the unit. The deal follows a strategic review that found the Foshan operation, which has a negative net asset position, no longer aligned with the group’s focus on seaweed.

Under the agreement, BPH’s subsidiary SCU (HK) Limited will transfer 100% of FoshanCo’s equity for no cash consideration and pay a one-off USD 20,200 settlement to extinguish historical claims. The board says the divestment removes a non-core legacy business, simplifies the corporate structure, and allows management to concentrate fully on expanding Indonesia-based seaweed sales and advancing seaweed R&D initiatives.
