TAICHUNG, Taiwan, Oct. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Agencia Comercial Spirits Ltd (the “Company”) today announced that on October 8, 2026, its Indonesian subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”) entered into a conditional land sale and purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with an unaffiliated third-party Indonesian seller (the “Seller”) to acquire approximately seven hectares of land in West Java, Indonesia (the “Land”). The Land is held under Indonesian Right to Build (Hak Guna Bangunan, or “HGB”) title and is intended to support the Company’s planned development of high-performance computing and AI computing infrastructure and data center facilities.
The aggregate land purchase consideration and reimbursement of electricity connection fees are equivalent to approximately US$30 million to US$40 million, excluding additional interconnection works, applicable taxes and transaction fees payable by the Subsidiary. The contractual amounts are denominated in Indonesian rupiah; the U.S. dollar range is indicative and subject to exchange rate movements.
The land consideration is payable in stages following execution of the Agreement, transfer of the electricity connection into the Subsidiary’s name and closing. Electricity connection fees are reimbursable separately as the Seller pays them, and reimbursement is not conditional on completion of that transfer.
Execution of the land transfer deed is contemplated by January 31, 2027, or such other date as the parties may agree. Completion remains subject to the Agreement’s conditions, including extensions of HGB title, due diligence, transfer of electricity and water supply arrangements, completion of interconnection works and delivery of unencumbered title, including resolution of an identified land-title matter. Satisfaction, waiver or extension of these conditions is governed by the Agreement.
The acquisition forms part of the Company’s planned AI computing infrastructure development alongside its established whisky business. It does not itself establish operational computing capacity or generate customer revenue. Completion and subsequent development remain subject to financing, title, utility, regulatory and execution risks. In certain purchaser default or withdrawal circumstances, consideration due or paid may be forfeited. Refunds are subject to the Agreement’s conditions and permitted deductions or set-offs, and recovery of all transaction costs is not assured.
