Ryde
Group Ltd (the “Company”) is pursuing a strategic regional expansion to extend its technology-driven mobility platform
beyond Singapore into key Asian urban centers. Hong Kong represents a highly attractive market due to its dense population, significant
demand for reliable transportation, and growing adoption of environmentally sustainable mobility solutions. This expansion aligns with
the Company’s long-term vision to develop a scalable, regional mobility ecosystem that leverages its operational expertise, technology
platform, and driver network. By establishing a foothold in Hong Kong, Ryde aims to diversify its geographic exposure, create new revenue
opportunities, enhance platform utilization, and strengthen shareholder value, while advancing sustainability objectives through the
deployment of electric vehicles.
In
furtherance of this strategic initiative, on April 14, 2026, the Company entered into a Call Option and Agency Agreement (the “Agreement”)
with Envision W International Ltd (“EWIL”). The Agreement grants the Company the option to purchase a total of up
to 50 Hong Kong taxi licenses and up to 50 electric vehicles (“Assets”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will
pay a refundable deposit of US$14.5 million (the “Deposit”) to EWIL. The Agreement is valid for a period of
six months from the date of the Agreement (the “Option Period”). During the Option Period, the Company may exercise
the option to purchase the Assets. The Agreement does not obligate the Company to acquire any Assets, and any such acquisitions remain
subject to the Company’s sole discretion during the Option Period. Any portion of the Deposit not applied toward the purchase
of Assets during the Option Period will be refunded in full to the Company upon expiration of the Option Period. Any
such acquisitions will be subject to the Company’s internal approval processes and applicable regulatory requirements.

Ryde Advances Regional Expansion Strategy with
Entry into Hong Kong Mobility Market
SINGAPORE, April 14, 2026 – Ryde Group Ltd
(NYSE American: RYDE) (“Ryde” or the “Company”), a leading technology platform for mobility and quick commerce
in Singapore, today announced its strategic expansion into the Hong Kong market. This milestone marks a significant step in Ryde’s
regional growth strategy and strengthens its position as a key player in Asia’s evolving mobility landscape.
Entry into Hong Kong with Scalable Mobility Infrastructure
As part of this expansion, Ryde will acquire up to
50 Hong Kong taxi licenses and deploy up to 50 electric vehicles (“EVs”). This initial rollout is intended to establish
a capital-efficient and scalable operating base in one of Asia’s most densely populated and high-demand mobility markets.
By integrating licensed taxi operations with EV deployment,
Ryde will introduce a differentiated, technology-enabled service offering aimed at improving driver economics, enhancing rider experience
and supporting the transition toward lower-emission urban transportation.
Expanding Geographic Footprint to Drive Revenue
Growth
The Company’s entry into Hong Kong represents
a strategic step in diversifying its geographic exposure and unlocking new revenue opportunities beyond its home market of Singapore.
Leveraging its proprietary platform, established driver network model and operational expertise, Ryde is well-positioned to scale efficiently
while adapting to local regulatory and market conditions. This expansion is expected to strengthen network effects, increase platform
utilization and support more resilient, multi-market revenue streams over time.
Positioned to Capture Demand in a High-Value Urban
Mobility Market
“Expanding into Hong Kong marks an
important milestone in Ryde’s growth journey,” said James Tan, Chief Product Officer of Ryde. “We are
entering a highly attractive market with strong, consistent demand for mobility services and clear momentum toward technology-driven
and sustainable transportation. Our platform is designed to scale efficiently, and we believe this expansion positions us to capture
meaningful opportunities while delivering long-term value to our shareholders.”
Advancing a Scalable, Asset-Enabled Growth Strategy
This expansion underscores Ryde’s broader strategy
of combining platform technology with targeted asset deployment to accelerate growth and strengthen its competitive positioning. By entering
key gateway cities such as Hong Kong, the Company aims to build a scalable regional mobility ecosystem that delivers sustainable, long-term
value for customers, drivers and investors.
