BEIJING, May 12, 2026/PRNewswire/ — Cloopen Group Holding Limited (OTC: RAASY) (“Cloopen” or the “Company”) today announced that it has entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with SpringX Holdings Limited, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Parent”), AutumnX Holdings Limited (“HoldCo”), an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and SummerX Holdings Limited (“Merger Sub”), an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of HoldCo, pursuant to which the Company will be owned by a consortium consisting of Mr. Changxun Sun, the Company’s founder and chief executive officer, Cloopen Co., Ltd. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mr. Changxun Sun), Trustbridge Partners VII, L.P., Trustbridge Partners V, L.P., Retail Technology Asia Limited (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dmall Inc., HKEX: 2586), Novo Investment HK Limited, Image Frame Investment (HK) Limited, Parantoux Vintage PE Ltd., and Flawless Success Limited (collectively, the “Buyer Group”) in a transaction implying an equity value of the Company of approximately US$162.89 million.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company through a merger in accordance with Part 16 of the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as the surviving company and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of HoldCo as a result of the Merger.
The members of the Buyer Group currently beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 28.42% of all the issued and outstanding shares, representing approximately 57.25% of the aggregate voting power of the Company. HoldCo and certain Buyer Group members have entered into support agreements, pursuant to which such Buyer Group members and their affiliates have agreed to (i) vote their shares in favor of the authorization and approval of the Merger Agreement, the Merger and related matters, and (ii) subscribe for or otherwise receive shares of HoldCo at or immediately prior to the closing of the Merger in consideration for, and to receive no cash consideration for, the cancellation of their respective shares in the Company.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), (i) each Class A ordinary share, par value US$0.0001 per share, and each Class B ordinary share, par value US$0.0001 per share, of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Excluded Shares (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement), the Dissenting Shares (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) and shares represented by ADSs), shall be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive US$0.4940 in cash per share without interest (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”), and (ii) each American Depositary Share, each representing six (6) Class A Ordinary Shares (each, an “ADS” and collectively, the “ADSs”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than ADSs representing Excluded Shares), together with the Class A Ordinary Shares represented by such ADS, shall be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for the right to receive US$2.9641 in cash per ADS without interest (the “Per ADS Merger Consideration”, together with the Per Share Merger Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”).
The Merger Consideration represents a premium of 51.23% to the closing price of the Company’s ADSs on December 19, 2025, the last trading day prior to the Company’s receipt of the “going-private” proposal on December 22, 2025, and a premium of 110.22% to the closing price of the Company’s ADSs on May 11, 2026, the last trading day prior to the execution of the Merger Agreement.
Parent has entered into a debt commitment letter pursuant to which China Minsheng Banking Corp., Ltd. Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone Branch has agreed to provide a term facility in an amount up to US$42 million for the Merger, subject to certain conditions.
The Company’s board of directors, acting upon the unanimous recommendation of a committee of independent and disinterested directors established by the board of directors (the “Special Committee”), approved the Merger Agreement and the Merger. The Special Committee negotiated the terms of the Merger Agreement with the assistance of its financial and legal advisors.
The Merger which is currently expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026, is subject to various closing conditions, including a condition that the Merger Agreement be authorized and approved by a resolution approved by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the votes cast by the shareholders present and voting in person or by proxy as a single class at the shareholders’ meeting in accordance with Section 233(6) of the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands and the current effective memorandum and articles of association of the Company. If completed, the Merger will result in the Company becoming a privately-owned company wholly-owned directly by HoldCo, its ADSs will no longer be quoted on the OTC Pink Market, and the ADS program will be terminated.
