Cheetah Net Supply Chain Service signs definitive agreement to acquire Edward Transit Express Group

Jan 30, 2024

Cheetah Net Supply Chain Service Inc. (“Cheetah” or the “Company”) today announced that it has executed a definitive agreement and its amendment thereto (the “Agreement”) for the acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Edward Transit Express Group Inc. (“Edward”), a California-based global inbound non-vessel operating common carrier specializing in ocean and air transportation services. This strategic move marks Cheetah’s inaugural investment in the logistics sector. The Acquisition is expected to close within 20 calendar days from the signing of the Agreement.

Chairman and CEO Tony Liu commented, “[w]ith the Agreement now executed, we look forward to closing the Acquisition and to integrating Edward’s operations into Cheetah as soon as possible. We expect Edward’s logistics and warehousing services to reduce Cheetah’s operating overhead and, more importantly, to jumpstart Cheetah’s ability to offer these services to third-party parallel-import dealers. The Acquisition begins a new chapter in Cheetah’s plans to become an international provider of comprehensive and integrated supply chain solutions.”

The total Acquisition cost includes a cash payment of $300,000 and a share consideration involving the issuance of Cheetah’s unregistered Class A common stock (the “Share Consideration”). The per-share price for the Share Consideration will be determined at 80% of the average closing price over the last ten business days preceding the execution of the Agreement, resulting in a market value of $1,200,000. Following the Acquisition, Cheetah will own 100% of Edward.
