TAIPEI, TAIWAN / ACCESS Newswire / November 3, 2025 / Nocera, Inc. (NASDAQ:NCRA) ("Nocera" or the "Company"), a company focused on strategic acquisitions and aquaculture operations, announced today that it has entered into a securities purchase agreement with a U.S.-based institutional investor for the private placement of up to $300 million in senior secured convertible notes (the "Facility").

Under the terms of the Facility, net proceeds from each closing will be allocated to U.S.-dollar-pegged digital assets, such as stablecoins, held with a U.S.-based institutional custodian. These assets are intended to support the Company's digital asset treasury strategy and may be subsequently deployed toward high-impact corporate initiatives, including strategic acquisitions and growth opportunities deemed to enhance shareholder value.

Key Highlights

• Net proceeds expected to be initially allocated to U.S. dollar-pegged digital assets

• Diversifies balance sheet with digital assets to be securely held domestically at a U.S.-based institutional custodian

• Supports digital asset treasury initiatives and potential strategic acquisitions

Andy Jin, Chief Executive Officer of Nocera, said, "We are entering a new era in corporate funding, where traditional finance meets the transformative potential of decentralized finance (DeFi). Our stable digital asset strategy is designed to fortify our balance sheet with a differentiated digital asset reserve, and drive long-term shareholder value through subsequent digital asset initiatives or strategic acquisitions. We believe stable digital assets leverage decentralized, borderless, blockchain technologies, while significantly limiting market risk."

"By cultivating a powerful capital base and diversified balance sheet, we are poised to act decisively on high-impact acquisition opportunities, targeting synergistic companies that amplify our market presence, unlock new revenue streams, or accelerate our competitive edge in a rapidly evolving economy."

Under the terms of the Facility, Nocera expects to allocate all net proceeds from the initial closing towards the acquisition of stable digital assets and a majority of the net proceeds from any additional closings towards the acquisition of stable digital assets, with a portion earmarked for working capital from each additional closing.

Curvature Securities LLC acted as sole placement agent and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners acted as advisor to the Company.
