NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
INFINT Acquisition Corporation (“INFINT”) (NYSE: IFIN, IFIN.WS), a special purpose acquisition company, and Seamless Group Inc., a leading global fintech platform (“Seamless”), today announced the filing of a registration statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The Registration Statement contains a preliminary proxy statement and prospectus in connection with INFINT’s previously announced proposed business combination with Seamless. While the Registration Statement has not yet become effective and the information contained therein is subject to change, it provides important information about INFINT, Seamless and the proposed business combination.
As previously announced, on August 3, 2022, INFINT entered into a business combination agreement with Seamless, an EBITDA positive company with cash as of June 30, 2022 of $59.1 million. The business combination does not contain a minimum cash condition and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2023, subject to approval by INFINT's shareholders, the Registration Statement being declared effective by the SEC, and other customary closing conditions. The transaction values Seamless at an enterprise value of $400 million. Seamless’ financial results for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the six months ended June 30, 2022 and related disclosures can be found in the Registration Statement, which we encourage you to read.
Seamless’ entities operate global digital money transfer services delivering global financial access for the unbanked populations and migrant workers, as well as companies with a focus in Southeast Asia. Companies under the Seamless umbrella include Tranglo, one of Asia’s leading platforms and service providers of cross-border payment processing capabilities, as well as a leading international retail airtime transfer operator in WalletKu. Seamless believes its business model is highly scalable and transferrable to additional geographic markets, aiming to grow and create value for all participants within the Seamless ecosystem. The expertise Seamless has gained from its deep understanding of its target audience should allow the continued expansion of its visionary portfolio companies globally through strategic acquisitions.

No Offer or Solicitation
This press release is not a proxy statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the transaction and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities of INFINT or Seamless, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release uses EBITDA, which is a Non-GAAP financial measure, to present the financial performance of Seamless. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, Seamless’ operating results or cash flow from operations or any other measure of performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe the Non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because such results provide additional insights into trends in Seamless’ business. The presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies’ reports. You should review Seamless’ audited financial statements, which are included in the Registration Statement.
