Multistack International sells major assets to Willing Y

Multistack International (ASX:MSI) has entered into a binding asset sale deed with Hong Kong-based entity Willing Y, marking a pivotal shift in the company's corporate trajectory.

Under the terms of the agreement, WYL will acquire substantially all of MSI's assets—including the entirety of its subsidiary, Multistack Australia—and assume nearly all existing liabilities.

The divestment follows a rigorous board review initiated in June 2025, which determined that MSI's core activities remained loss-making.

Facing the prospect of requiring a capital injection beyond the company’s current reach, directors concluded that continuing the business in its present form was no longer commercially viable.

WYL, an exporter of air conditioning components from China, intends to leverage this acquisition to expand its footprint across the Australian and New Zealand markets.

For MSI, the transaction serves as a structural reset; the company is set to emerge as a listed entity with limited net assets, primarily retaining enough cash to meet its ongoing statutory and ASX compliance obligations.

The "clean slate" approach is designed to allow the board to pivot and pursue entirely new business activities.

However, the deal remains subject to several critical conditions precedent, most notably the requirement for MSI shareholder approval and the receipt of an independent expert’s report to ensure the transaction's fairness.
