ATIF Holdings Limited Completes Acquisition of GoldCoin Labs, Expanding into Gold-Backed Digital Asset Sector
IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ATIF Holdings Limited (Nasdaq: AUC) (the “Company”), a Nasdaq-listed holding company, today announced the completion of its acquisition of GoldCoin Labs Limited (“GoldCoin”), a British Virgin Islands company developing gold-backed digital asset issuance infrastructure.
As previously announced on July 30, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive acquisition agreement with GoldCoin and its sole shareholder (the “GoldCoin Shareholder”) to acquire all equity interests of GoldCoin (the “Acquisition Agreement”). On September 9, 2026, the Company became the 100% shareholder of GoldCoin and issued 2,815,005 ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (each, an “Ordinary Share”, and collectively, the “Ordinary Shares”), to GoldCoin Shareholder as consideration. The consideration was valued at approximately $20 million, based on a five-trading-day volume-weighted average price mechanism specified in the Acquisition Agreement.
Immediately following the closing, the Company has 22,128,378 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding.
Strategic Rationale
GoldCoin, incorporated in December 2025, is developing the issuance and related infrastructure for Metra Gold (GOLDM), a tokenized digital representation of physical gold. Each GOLDM token is intended to represent one gram of fine gold meeting London Bullion Market Association Good Delivery requirements and is intended to be backed on a 1:1 basis by physical gold. GoldCoin’s business model contemplates token issuance and redemption, third-party custody of underlying gold, reserve verification, and blockchain-based transfer and settlement.
The Company’s board of directors obtained an independent fairness opinion from Pinetree Advisory and Valuation Limited, which concluded that the transaction is fair from a financial point of view to the Company and its shareholders. The board unanimously approved the transaction after considering the strategic rationale, market opportunity, and regulatory considerations, among other things.
The board believes the acquisition provides the Company with exposure to the growing tokenized real-world asset sector through GoldCoin’s gold-tokenization platform, complementing the Company’s existing digital-asset strategy. Since June 2025, the Company has started to explore various digital assets business including purchase and mining of bitcoins, investments in tokens such as AI Agent Proxy Protocol (AIAPP) etc. The acquisition of GoldCoin is expected to further diversify the Company’s business, expand its potential revenue sources, and provide a scalable platform for future product development and commercial collaborations.
Lock-Up Agreement
In connection with the closing, GoldCoin Shareholder entered into a 180-day lock-up agreement, commencing on September 9, 2026, covering the Ordinary Shares it received pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, subject to the terms and exceptions set forth therein.
