Medi Lifestyle eyes $6.76m deal for 60% of Q&M’s EM2AI

The proposed acquisition will be paid entirely with new shares.

Medi Lifestyle has signed a non-binding agreement to acquire a 60% stake in dental artificial intelligence company EM2AI from Q&M Dental Group for about $6.76m.

The proposed consideration will be satisfied entirely through the issuance of 138 million new Medi Lifestyle shares at $0.049 each.

EM2AI develops AI solutions that analyse dental X-rays, automate dental charting and generate structured information to support dentists’ treatment planning. Its AI X-ray detection and automated dental-charting systems have been deployed across Q&M’s clinics in Singapore.

The transaction would give Catalist-listed Medi Lifestyle a majority interest in EM2AI and mark its entry into technology-enabled healthcare. The company currently operates businesses in outsourced permanent-placement services and commodities trading.

Before the transaction is completed, EM2AI’s clinic-management system business, EM2Clinic, will be transferred out of the company and excluded from the sale.

The parties also intend to establish minimum net profit after tax targets for the EM2AI group of $1m in FY2027, $1.5m in FY2028 and $2.5m in FY2029. The detailed mechanism will be included in the definitive agreements.

As one of the proposed conditions, Medi Lifestyle will undertake to raise or procure at least $30m in capital within two years after completion.

The funds will support EM2AI’s subsequent business activities, including expansion in Singapore and Southeast Asia. Medi Lifestyle said it intends to conduct a private placement to support its expansion and strategic growth initiatives.

Q&M said the disposal would allow it to concentrate on its dental healthcare operations while retaining exposure to EM2AI’s future performance. After completion, Q&M will continue to own 40% of EM2AI and will also hold shares in Medi Lifestyle received as consideration.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
