ANKAM INC. Announces Memorandum of Understanding for Strategic Partnership and Potential Future Acquisition of T&E Global
TAIPEI, TAIWAN - March 23, 2026 - ANKAM INC. ("ANKAM" or the "Company"), today announced that it has entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with TRUST & ETHIC CO., LTD. ("T&E Global"), a Taiwan-based corporation, to establish a strategic partnership and outline a framework for a potential future acquisition.
Strategic Partnership Framework
Under the terms of the MOU, ANKAM plans to establish a subsidiary in Taiwan and appoint Mr. Wang Wen Lung as Representative of that subsidiary. Mr. Wang may serve as the primary authorized representative of ANKAM to interface with, manage, and support the overseas business operations of T&E Global. The Parties intend to work collaboratively to expand T&E Global's international market presence and maximize commercial value.
The MOU contemplates that, if T&E Global's overseas operations achieve mutually agreed-upon performance metrics (key performance indicators to be defined in a separate definitive agreement), ANKAM intends to initiate an acquisition process for the parent company of T&E Global. The Parties have agreed to negotiate in good faith to enter into definitive agreements that would govern any transaction, which will contain customary terms, conditions, and covenants for transactions of this nature.
Related Party Transaction Disclosure
Mr. Wang Wen Lung, as President and Chief Executive Officer of ANKAM, is a "related person" for purposes of SEC disclosure requirements. In light of Mr. Wang's roles with both ANKAM and the Taiwan subsidiary interfacing with T&E Global, the MOU and the transactions contemplated thereby constitute a related party transaction.
The MOU was negotiated and approved by the Board of Directors of ANKAM. Mr. Wang recused himself from all deliberations and approvals relating to the MOU. The Board, acting through its independent directors, determined that the terms of the MOU were negotiated on an arm's-length basis and are fair and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The Board will continue to review and approve any definitive agreements related to the potential acquisition, with Mr. Wang recusing himself from such approvals.
Non-Binding Nature
Except for confidentiality and the non-binding provisions themselves, the MOU is a statement of intent only and does not constitute a legally binding obligation or contract. Any binding commitment regarding the potential acquisition or operational integration will be subject to the execution of definitive legal agreements and any required corporate or regulatory approvals.
