Basel Medical Group Ltd (Nasdaq: BMGL) has entered exclusive negotiations for a $1 billion acquisition of Bitcoin (BTC), marking a major shift in its financial strategy. The move will reshape the company’s treasury reserves while continuing its focus on healthcare expansion across Asia.

Basel Medical Group $1B Bitcoin Treasury
BMGL is aiming to build a stronger financial base to accelerate its expansion into emerging Asian healthcare markets. The proposed transaction would diversify the company’s balance sheet and improve its access to capital for future acquisitions.
Dr. Darren Chhoa, Chief Executive Officer of BMGL, said, “This $1 billion financial transformation will give us the capacity to execute our Asia growth strategy while maintaining conservative financial management.” He added that the move supports the firm’s mission to become a top-tier healthcare platform across the region.
The company is currently working with a group of crypto-focused investors to finalize terms. BMGL expects the deal to close within the current financial quarter, pending regulatory approvals and other standard conditions.
Financial Flexibility Through Diversification
The proposed Bitcoin acquisition is part of BMGL’s broader strategy to enhance liquidity and reduce exposure to traditional financial instruments. By incorporating Bitcoin into its reserves like the US, the company seeks to create a more diversified asset base that may provide more resilience in changing markets.
According to the announcement, the Bitcoin assets will support BMGL’s future healthcare acquisitions. Management believes this strategic move could offer a new way to balance risk while retaining access to immediate funding options.
This development may also give BMGL the ability to respond quickly to market shifts or investment opportunities in the fast-growing healthcare sector, particularly in underserved areas across Asia.
A Growing Trend Among Public Companies
BMGL joins a growing list of publicly traded companies that have added Bitcoin to their corporate treasuries like Michael Saylor led Strategy. In Brazil, fintech firm Méliuz recently completed a $28.4 million Bitcoin purchase after shareholders approved its transition into a Bitcoin Treasury Company. Méliuz now holds over 274 BTC at an average price of $103,604 per Bitcoin.
Similarly, whiskey producer Heritage has started accepting Bitcoin as payment and is holding the proceeds in its corporate treasury. Bloomberg ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas commented that using Bitcoin from sales can be a smart strategy for companies planning to build reserves.
These developments indicate that more firms across different sectors are choosing Bitcoin as part of their financial planning. BMGL’s decision could encourage other healthcare providers to consider similar steps to improve balance sheet strength.
