American Marconi Wireless News - Ryde Advances Regional Expansion Strategy with Entry into Hong Kong Mobility Market

Entry into Hong Kong with Scalable Mobility Infrastructure

As part of this expansion, Ryde will acquire up to 50 Hong Kong taxi licenses and deploy up to 50 electric vehicles ("EVs"). This initial rollout is intended to establish a capital-efficient and scalable operating base in one of Asia's most densely populated and high-demand mobility markets.

By integrating licensed taxi operations with EV deployment, Ryde will introduce a differentiated, technology-enabled service offering aimed at improving driver economics, enhancing rider experience and supporting the transition toward lower-emission urban transportation.

Expanding Geographic Footprint to Drive Revenue Growth

The Company's entry into Hong Kong represents a strategic step in diversifying its geographic exposure and unlocking new revenue opportunities beyond its home market of Singapore. Leveraging its proprietary platform, established driver network model and operational expertise, Ryde is well-positioned to scale efficiently while adapting to local regulatory and market conditions. This expansion is expected to strengthen network effects, increase platform utilization and support more resilient, multi-market revenue streams over time.

Positioned to Capture Demand in a High-Value Urban Mobility Market

"Expanding into Hong Kong marks an important milestone in Ryde's growth journey," said James Tan, Chief Product Officer of Ryde. "We are entering a market with strong and consistent demand for mobility services, and a clear shift toward more efficient and sustainable solutions. Our focus is to establish a reliable operating base first, before scaling with discipline. This positions us to deliver long-term value to our shareholders."

Advancing a Scalable, Asset-Enabled Growth Strategy

This expansion underscores Ryde's broader strategy of combining platform technology with targeted asset deployment to accelerate growth and strengthen its competitive positioning. By entering key gateway cities such as Hong Kong, the Company aims to build a scalable regional mobility ecosystem that delivers sustainable, long-term value for customers, drivers and investors.
