The Thailand Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) ordered Techlead NPN Public Company Limited (TL) to clarify and supplement information on its proposed investment in Nestifly Co., Ltd., and to disclose the clarified information via the Stock Exchange of Thailand’s SETLink system by 20 January 2026. The order follows the SEC’s assessment that TL’s initial SETLink disclosure was unclear and lacked material information relevant to shareholders’ rights and investment decisions. TL’s board approved the transaction on 7 January 2026, under which its subsidiary, Techlead X Holding Co., Ltd., plans to acquire all Nestifly shares from Peer for You Public Company Limited (99.99 percent) and Nestifly’s minority shareholders for a total value not exceeding THB 113.5 million, funded by cash from a private placement of newly issued TL shares at THB 0.25 per share and TL’s working capital. The acquisition has a highest transaction size of 18 percent (consideration basis), triggering asset acquisition disclosure requirements for transactions equal to or exceeding 15 percent but less than 50 percent, including minimum disclosure under Schedule (1) of the relevant Stock Exchange of Thailand notification and a shareholder circular with minimum information under Schedule (2) within 21 days from the date the transaction is disclosed to the Stock Exchange of Thailand. The SEC identified gaps including the analyses and assumptions underpinning the investment decision and share price, Nestifly’s business capability, the board’s view on purchase price appropriateness given negative shareholders’ equity, revenue and profitability outlook given losses over the past three years, and Nestifly’s liabilities including disclosed outstanding payables of THB 34,428,083; it also requested clarification on alignment with TL’s disclosed criteria for technology business investments, whether conflicted directors participated, each director’s opinion and voting outcome, and why a prior private placement at THB 0.41 per share was not completed within three months, leading to the current offering at THB 0.25 per share. The SEC’s order, issued under Section 58(1) of the Securities and Exchange Act B.E. 2535 (1992), requires TL to submit the clarifications with supporting documents to the SEC and publish the updated disclosure via SETLink by 20 January 2026.
