TWG Enters MOU with Chinese Pharmaceutical Group for Pet Pharmaceutical Business Injection

Top Wealth Group Holding Limited has entered into a memorandum of understanding with Jilin Xiuzheng Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Technology Co., Ltd., a member of Xiuzheng Group, to inject animal-related pharmaceutical products, foods, and supplements business into the company. The transaction will result in Jilin Xiuzheng gaining majority control and voting power, as well as the right to nominate directors and appoint senior management members. The deal aims to tap into China's rapidly growing pets market.

Top Wealth Group Holding Limited (NASDAQ: TWG) has entered into a legally-binding memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Jilin Xiuzheng Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Technology Co., Ltd. (Jilin Xiuzheng), a subsidiary of Xiuzheng Group, for the injection of its animal-related pharmaceutical products, foods, and supplements business into TWG. The MOU, effective for 120 days, outlines a transaction that will result in Jilin Xiuzheng gaining majority control and voting power, as well as the right to nominate directors and appoint senior management members.

The strategic rationale behind this transaction is to tap into China's rapidly growing pet market. According to the Chinese pet market data, the market has expanded at an impressive 25.4% annual growth rate from RMB97.8 billion in 2015 to RMB592.8 billion in 2023, with projections reaching RMB811.4 billion by 2025 [2].

The MOU signifies a transformative deal for TWG, fundamentally altering its business focus and corporate structure. Instead of a traditional acquisition, this is a reverse takeover where Jilin Xiuzheng will inject its animal pharmaceutical business into TWG in exchange for majority control and voting power of the company. Post-transaction, Jilin Xiuzheng will appoint directors and senior management while TWG's existing management will continue operating their caviar business as a secondary operation.

The 120-day effective period provides time for due diligence but also creates execution risk before a definitive agreement is reached. For TWG shareholders, this represents a fundamental shift in investment thesis from a caviar business to a pet pharmaceutical company controlled by a Chinese conglomerate. While the growth potential is substantial, the dilution of ownership and change in strategic direction represent pivotal moments that will significantly impact TWG's future trajectory and investor base.
