VCIG VCI Global Ltd

VCI Global Limited (NASDAQ: VCIG) (“VCI Global,” or the “Company”), today announced the carve-out of its wholly owned subsidiary, V Capital Consulting Group Limited (“VCCG”), for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. VCIG will retain majority control of VCCG. This strategic initiative aims to enable both companies to focus on their core competencies, better serve their respective markets, and enhance growth potential and value creation for shareholders.

The carve-out has been executed pursuant to the Stock Sale and Business Separation Agreement entered into on December 30, 2024, through the sale of VCI Global’s subsidiaries V Capital Consulting Limited and V Capital Advisory Sdn. Bhd. to VCCG. This strategic move is designed to unlock value for shareholders by allowing both businesses to fully realize their potential. By operating as two listed entities, VCI Global and VCCG will gain greater flexibility to pursue tailored growth strategies, optimize their operational structures, and enhance financial performance.

Following the carve-out, VCI Global will intensify its focus on expanding operations in high-growth sectors, including fintech, data center, AI & robotics, renewable energy and cybersecurity. This realignment will allow VCI Global to leverage its strengths, drive innovation, and foster sustainable growth in these sectors.

Meanwhile, VCCG will continue to focus on corporate advisory, specializing in capital market advisory for pre-IPO, IPO, and post-IPO exercises, M&A advisory, and strategic private executive advisory services. The demand for capital market consultancy services is rising due to heightened market activities and regulatory complexities. According to KBV Research, the global strategy consulting market is projected to reach around US$95 billion by 2031, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.3% from 2023 to 2031. This trend is further evidenced by the 66 IPOs listed on Nasdaq during the first half of 2024, representing a 71% success rate for Nasdaq-eligible operating company IPOs in the U.S. market. These trends highlight the substantial market opportunities for VCCG to expand its service offerings and client base. With a dedicated focus, VCCG will be better positioned to meet the increasing demand for expert consultancy services in IPOs, M&As, and strategic capital market planning.

The carve-out listing is expected to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions and the satisfaction of regulatory requirements.

“This carve-out represents a pivotal step in our growth strategy, enabling both VCIG and VCCG to refine their focus and align their resources more effectively. Building on our proven track record of successfully listing companies such as VCI Global Limited, YY Group Holding Limited, and Founder Group Limited, we are committed to delivering substantial value to shareholders. We look forward to welcoming more Nasdaq IPOs in 2025, capitalizing on emerging opportunities in their respective markets,” said Dato’ Victor Hoo, Group Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of VCI Global.
