An announcement from Longevity Health Holdings ( (XAGE) ) is now available.

On March 13, 2026, Longevity Health Holdings agreed to sell 689,656 common shares in a $200,000 private placement to International Capital Partners LLC, a vehicle tied to investor-executive Janakiram (Ram) Ajjarapu, with the deal closing on March 16, 2026 and proceeds earmarked for working capital and general corporate purposes. The transaction gives Ajjarapu a meaningful equity stake and was accompanied by his appointment as chairman and chief executive, positioning the company to pursue an acquisition-led growth strategy while it prepares a resale registration for the new shares and manages governance changes, including the mutually agreed March 16, 2026 departure of former CEO and chair Rajiv S. Shukla, who remains a significant shareholder and advisor under a severance arrangement.

Under a March 13, 2026 separation agreement, Shukla relinquished all current and future equity awards in exchange for up to 18 months of severance and a potential cash bonus tied to future capital-raising, while committing to assist the company during the transition. Ajjarapu’s dual role as lead investor and top executive, combined with his background in scaling and acquiring businesses, underscores a shift in strategic direction for Longevity Health Holdings as it seeks to build an acquisition platform in the competitive U.S. bio‑aesthetics market.
