Case Significance

Re Ficus Asia Investment Pte Ltd (Redefine Capital Fund and others, non-parties) [2026] SGHC 150 was decided by Wong Li Kok, Alex J in the General Division of the High Court on 17 July 2026, after a hearing on 29 May 2026. Ficus Asia Investment Pte. Ltd. sought sanction of a scheme of arrangement approved at the Scheme Meeting on 27 April 2026 by a majority representing 89.5% in value present and voting. Mizuho Asean Investment LP voted in favour but sought two alterations under s 210(4) of the Companies Act 1967 (2020 Rev Ed): one on reserved matters under Clause 3.17 and one shortening the 45-day completion period in Clause 3.10 to seven days. The court held that MAI had not provided the necessary detail, that the alterations would take the scheme beyond what was voted on, and sanctioned the scheme without them.
