Sagtec Signals Major Growth with AI, EV Bets After Strong 2025 Results

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia – January 28, 2026 – Sagtec Global Limited (NASDAQ: SAGT) today signaled a period of aggressive expansion and diversification, outlining an ambitious 2026 strategy that ventures into artificial intelligence, electric vehicle subscriptions, and ESG software. The announcement came as the company released stellar preliminary operating results for its full fiscal year, projecting massive year-on-year gains that significantly outpace its already impressive growth trajectory.

Based on unaudited internal estimates, the Southeast Asian digital solutions provider anticipates a 64% surge in revenue, a 75% jump in net profit, and a remarkable 93% increase in operating cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2025. While the final audited results are not expected until April, the preliminary figures suggest a company firing on all cylinders, driven by what management describes as improved operating efficiency and a growing contribution from its core software-as-a-service (SaaS) revenue streams.

These numbers, combined with a strategic roadmap targeting high-growth technology sectors, paint a picture of a company rapidly evolving beyond its foundational market. Sagtec appears poised to leverage its strong financial position to redefine its role in the region's burgeoning digital economy.

A Pattern of Explosive Growth

The strong preliminary results for 2025 are not an anomaly for Sagtec but rather the continuation of a well-established pattern of hyper-growth. The company's financial performance over the past two years has consistently demonstrated accelerating demand for its digital transformation services, which cater to over 12,000 businesses, primarily in the Food & Beverage (F&B) sector.

In fiscal year 2024, Sagtec reported a robust 78% year-over-year revenue growth. This momentum intensified dramatically in 2025. For the first six months of the year, revenue soared 144% to US$11.4 million, while net profit skyrocketed 308% to US$1.9 million. This trend continued through the first nine months of 2025, with the company posting 97% revenue growth and 226% net profit growth.

Much of this success is anchored in the company's expanding SaaS portfolio, particularly its flagship Speed+ smart ordering system and other solutions like QR ordering and self-service kiosks. The consistent triple-digit growth in key metrics throughout 2025 provides a strong foundation for the preliminary full-year estimates and lends credibility to its capacity for executing the ambitious new ventures planned for 2026.

Doubling Down on AI and Strategic Partnerships

Central to Sagtec's 2026 vision is a decisive push into artificial intelligence, a strategy solidified through a series of key partnerships. The company announced it will focus on evaluating and developing AI platform opportunities, highlighting a planned collaboration with Skilliks, an integrated AI project lifecycle platform developed by Kinetic Seas Incorporated.

This is not Sagtec's first foray with the AI innovator. In August 2025, the company entered a strategic licensing agreement to integrate the Skilliks AI platform into its own Point-of-Sale (POS) systems, aiming to deliver AI-powered forecasting and management tools to its F&B clients. This relationship deepened recently when Sagtec secured a US$4.0 million software development deal with Grandpride Luxury Travel to build an AI-driven digital mobility platform, a project that will be powered by Kinetic Seas' Skilliks technology.

This AI focus is further evidenced by its ongoing partnership with HM Development, which began in October 2025. Sagtec invested US$2 million to co-develop the "HMS Data Analysis System," an AI-powered financial technology and education platform. Sagtec is developing the system's core infrastructure and applications and is set to receive US$1 million in upfront development revenue, along with a share in future subscription profits. With the platform scheduled to launch in the second quarter of 2026, this venture positions Sagtec to capture a piece of the global financial analytics market, which is projected to reach nearly US$20 billion by 2030.

These moves demonstrate a clear, multi-pronged strategy to embed AI across its operations and create new, scalable revenue streams beyond its traditional software offerings.

Charting New Territories: From ESG to Electric Mobility

Beyond AI, Sagtec is setting its sights on other transformative markets. The company confirmed it is actively exploring entry into the electric vehicle (EV) bike subscription segment in select Southeast Asian markets. This move, while still in the exploratory phase and subject to feasibility studies, could tap into a massive market. Southeast Asia accounts for a quarter of the world's two-wheeler market, and a regional push toward net-zero emissions is creating fertile ground for electric mobility solutions.

However, the path is not without obstacles. High upfront costs, a lack of charging infrastructure, and an evolving regulatory landscape are significant hurdles that existing players like Beam and Migo have had to navigate. Sagtec's success will depend on its ability to develop a commercially viable model that addresses these challenges.

In parallel, the company is moving to address the growing global demand for sustainability-focused business tools. A key priority for 2026 is the expansion of its ESG-related software capabilities, including features for carbon credit management and tax calculations. This initiative responds directly to evolving regulatory and reporting requirements across the region, positioning Sagtec as a critical enabler for businesses striving to meet their environmental, social, and governance commitments.

By building out these capabilities, Sagtec is not only diversifying its product suite but also aligning itself with the long-term sustainability trends shaping corporate strategy and investment worldwide. For investors and the market alike, Sagtec's journey in 2026 will be a closely watched barometer for ambitious tech growth in Southeast Asia.
