Published

on

SINGAPORE, Feb. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Singapore-based Wealthcare® and savings app Hugosave® announced that it is now jointly certified Shariah Compliant by a consortium led by Islamic Finance Singapore, Ustaz Kamal Mokhtar, S Tradition Pte Ltd, and Masryef Sdn Bhd.

In line with its dedication to fostering inclusivity and diversity within the financial sector, Hugosave has meticulously ensured that its offerings align with the principles of Islamic law, offering Muslim clients access to financial tools and additional avenues for investment opportunities grounded in their values and beliefs.

David Fergusson, Chief Executive Officer, Hugosave said, “Our vision has always been to build financially healthy and thriving communities, and this certification from the consortium of established Shariah advisory companies reinforces our commitment to the Muslim community in Singapore. This certification assures our Muslim clients that we are a trusted digital companion that is aligned with their faith. On a macro level, it is also Hugosave’s contribution to nation-building by promoting financial wellness across all segments of society.”

According to a 2022 report by the Islamic Corporation for the Development of Private Sector (ICD) and Refinitiv, Islamic financial assets grew to about $4 trillion from $2.17 trillion between 2015 and 2021, and are projected to rise to roughly $5.9 trillion by 2026[1]. This endorsement meets the growing demand from Muslim clients looking to manage their finances in accordance with their faith.

Ustaz Kamal Mokhtar, Chairman of the Shariah Consortium said, “Hugosave provides another avenue for Muslim investors to diversify their investment portfolio, especially in terms of gold investment. Gold is an important component of any investor’s portfolio due to its hedging mechanism against the volatility of the market. Global political uncertainties and the status and strength of the American dollar should make every investor consider increasing their gold portfolio. Historically since 1990 till 2020, gold prices have appreciated 360% which is about 18% annually. And the increasing demand for gold in the technology sector gives good potential for investing in gold. Hugosave provides a convenient platform for any investor to access the purchases of gold via an app. They could monitor the price of gold and make purchases from the convenience of their homes or offices.”

The six Shariah-compliant products offered by Hugosave include:

Hugosave Accounts: Savings in these accounts are safeguarded by a local bank.Hugosave Visa Platinum Debit Card: When a client spends with their Hugosave Debit Card, the transaction is rounded up to the nearest dollar and the excess is saved on their behalf, which is subsequently invested in a precious metal of their choice. This card has no annual fees and no minimum income requirement. When used overseas at millions of merchants worldwide, only Visa’s currency conversion applies.Hugosave Money Pots: Clients can set short-, medium-, or long-term savings goals and create automated saving and investing schedules to help achieve them.Hugosave Precious Metals: Clients can buy and sell physical gold, platinum, and silver, with a minimum investment as low as S$0.01. This feature provides clients with a live view of the value and gains of their investments, allowing them to make informed financial decisions by tracking market trends and investment performance in real time.Hugosave Trust: Hugosave has democratised access to a free trust service. With no fees and minimum income, clients can protect their legacy through Trustbox via a licensed trust service provider. This empowers customers to exercise greater control and flexibility over their assets, with the assurance that their wealth and assets are well-protected.Hugosave Rewards Centre: Clients are rewarded with sure-win spins when they reach specific milestones.

Hugosave serves as the digital companion, supporting individuals on their Wealthcare journey. The personal finance and savings app offers a comprehensive suite of financial products that helps everyone to make smarter spending choices, save for their goals and invest diligently.

“Hugosave is leading the charge in its field by adhering to Shariah standards, marking a significant and pioneering move that pushes the boundaries of Islamic finance in Singapore. Their bold and commendable decision to ensure their products comply with Shariah principles sets a new standard for innovation and inclusivity in the financial industry. This move highlights their commitment to alternative-ethical finance and opens up new avenues for growth and development within our community. IFSG is hopeful that Hugosave’s initiative will inspire other companies to embrace the principles of Shariah compliance, thereby enriching Singapore’s financial landscape with a variety of ethical and inclusive financial solutions.” said Ustaz Zul Hakim, Co-Chair of the Shariah Consortium.

“There is much confusion in navigating the current financial offerings and investments for Muslims in Singapore. Hugosave helps to simplify them and offer solutions in a Shariah-compliant manner. Acquiring, preserving and growing wealth is part of the objectives of Shariah. Although wealth is not an end in itself, it is a means for Muslims to live their lives, fulfil their responsibilities and prosper in this world with the blessings from the Allah SWT the All Mighty. Hugosave helps App users manage their finances, provide a payment solution, facilitate savings via gold and other precious metals, and perform investments in ETFs. All in a worry-free App (under its Shariah-compliant tab) suitable for Muslims.” added Ustaz Aminuddin Abu Bakar, representing S Tradition Pte Ltd.

With their commitment to Shariah-compliant practices, you can invest with confidence and peace of mind to ensure halal income, insya Allah!”

Syahmi Aziz, 34 years old Singaporean, Senior Sales Executive and client of Hugosave, “As a Hugosave client since 2021, navigating rising costs has made me conscious of finding ways to improve and strengthen my financial well-being. I’m excited to hear that Hugosave’s products are now Shariah-compliant as it widens the range of financial tools and investment options available in Singapore that are in accordance with Shariah principles for Muslims This endorsement assures me that Hugosave is not just a reliable personal finance and savings tool but also one that aligns with my faith.”

Shane Madden, CEO of Hydreight, commented:

“2025 was a defining year for Hydreight. We transitioned from a growing platform into a scaled healthcare infrastructure business, with strong revenue growth and sustained profitability.

The acceleration we saw in the second half of the year was driven largely by the rollout of VSDHOne, which is now becoming a meaningful contributor to both revenue and long-term scalability.

As we move into 2026, our focus is on expanding our partner network, increasing transaction volume across the platform, and continuing to grow our compliant healthcare infrastructures in the United States.”

BUSINESS PERFORMANCE & DRIVERS

VSDHOne – Core Growth Engine

The Company’s VSDHOne platform, launched in 2025, was a primary driver of growth, contributing to:

Rapid onboarding of new partnersExpansion of direct-to-consumer healthcare brandsIncreased transaction volume across telehealth and pharmacy services

Revenue growth in 2025 was primarily driven by VSDHOne-related activity, combined with continued organic growth across existing partners.

The platform ramped significantly through the second half of the year, with Q4 alone contributing $14.9M in revenue, representing approximately 270% growth compared to the same period in 2024. This acceleration reflects strong demand from partners seeking compliant, turnkey solutions and demonstrates the Company’s ability to scale transaction volume efficiently across its infrastructure.

OPERATING METRICS & VOLUME GROWTH

Operational performance across the Company’s core verticals continued to strengthen throughout 2025.

The Company’s first two verticals continued their historical growth in 2025, supported by alignment with broader market trends and the introduction of direct-to-consumer products and services through Hydreight’s proprietary platform structure.

Completed Services revenue in Q4 2025 for the first vertical increased by approximately 44% compared to the same period in 2024Completed Services revenue for the first vertical in 2025 increased by approximately 17% compared to 2024New nurse sign-ups increased by approximately 45% in 2025 compared to 2024

These metrics reflect continued growth in the Company’s core service offerings, expansion of its provider network, and increasing utilization across the platform.

PLATFORM SCALE & NETWORK EFFECTS

Hydreight continues to expand its position as a leading healthcare infrastructure platform:

11,000+ licenses signed across VSDHOneNational footprint across all 50 U.S. statesNetwork of healthcare providers, pharmacies, and partners

The Company believes that this scale reflects growing demand from businesses seeking compliant, turnkey solutions to enter and expand within the U.S. healthcare market.

MULTI-VERTICAL REVENUE MODEL

Hydreight generates revenue across three primary streams:

Business partner subscription contractsTelehealth consultation and platform commissionsPharmacy sales

Growth was supported by:

Expansion of product offerings (GLP-1s, peptides, NAD, TRT, and more)Increased partner utilizationBroader adoption across wellness verticals

PROFITABILITY & OPERATING LEVERAGE

Hydreight achieved strong improvements in Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure:

Adjusted EBITDA: $2.5M in 2025 vs. $0.14M in 2024 (+1,765% YoY)Net income (loss): $1.69M in 2025 vs. $(0.41)M in 2024

Performance strengthened meaningfully in the fourth quarter, reflecting the scaling of the platform in the second half of the year.

Q4 Adjusted EBITDA: $1.58M vs. ($0.10M) in Q4 2024

This reflects:

Platform scalabilityRevenue growth outpacing cost increasesImproved operational efficiency

This improvement reflects the operating leverage inherent in the Company’s platform model and was not solely a function of higher revenue. As transaction volumes scaled across VSDHOne, incremental revenue flowed through at higher margins, supported by a largely fixed regulatory, pharmacy, and technology infrastructure. As a result, revenue growth outpaced cost growth, driving improved profitability and demonstrating the scalability of the Company’s platform.

¹ See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation”.

BALANCE SHEET & LIQUIDITY

Cash: $15.65M (vs. $1.2M in 2024)Working Capital: ~$15.7M (vs. deficiency of $2.5M in 2024)Strong capital position to support ongoing operations

The Company also completed a $15M financing in January 2026, subsequent to year‑end, further strengthening its ability to scale operations and pursue strategic initiatives.

Including the $15M financing completed in January 2026, the Company has access to over $30.7M in capital to support growth initiatives.

Please see SEDAR+ for the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements and MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2025.

STRATEGIC INITIATIVES & MILESTONES

Hydreight continues to expand its platform through strategic initiatives and partnerships.

During 2025, the Company:

Strengthened its vertically integrated healthcare infrastructureExpanded its national pharmacy networkInvested in next-generation platform capabilities (VSDHOne 2.0)Established strategic relationships to enhance product innovation and distribution

In 2026, Hydreight further expanded its strategic initiatives through an investment in Insu Therapeutics, a company focused on developing innovative delivery mechanisms for peptide-based therapies. This aligns with Hydreight’s long-term strategy of supporting next-generation treatments across its platform.

OUTLOOK

Hydreight is entering 2026 with strong momentum, supported by:

Continued onboarding of new partnersIncreasing transaction volumes across VSDHOneRecent capital deployment initiativesExpansion into new healthcare verticals

As of the end of Q1 2026, VSDHOne has surpassed 12,000 licenses sold, reflecting continued momentum in platform adoption.

Management remains focused on scaling the platform while maintaining disciplined growth and operational efficiency.

“We look forward to discussing these results in more detail on our upcoming earnings call.” -Shane Madden

The Company defines Adjusted Gross Margin as GAAP gross margin plus inventory impairment plus the deferred portion of business partner contract revenue. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and before (i) transaction, restructuring, and integration costs (ii) share-based payments expense, (iii) gains/losses that are not reflective of ongoing operating performance including inventory impairment and (iv) sales tax provision, net of actual cash payments to state tax authorities. 

Adjusted Revenue reflects the gross economic activity processed through the Company’s platform during the applicable period and may differ materially from revenue recognized under IFRS, which is based on revenue recognition and deferral requirements. Adjusted Revenue is not a measure of financial performance or profitability and should not be considered a substitute for revenue determined in accordance with IFRS.  As used, Adjusted Revenue accelerates cash receipts relative to IFRS revenue recognition. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The Company believes that these non‑GAAP measures provide information useful to investors in understanding historical operating trends and the scale of the Company’s platform relative to its peers but does not intend for such measures to represent future performance. This data is furnished to provide additional information and does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. Accordingly, it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS and is not necessarily indicative of other metrics presented in accordance with IFRS.
