HeartCore Signs 12th Go IPO Contract


NEW YORK and TOKYO, Feb. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HeartCore Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: HTCR) (“HeartCore” or the “Company”), a leading enterprise software and consulting services company based in Tokyo, announced that it has signed an agreement (“Consulting Agreement”) with Jyo Co., Ltd. (“Jyo”) for its 12th Go IPO consulting service win.

“I am pleased to announce our 12th Go IPO contract win and our first one for 2024,” said HeartCore CEO Sumitaka Kanno Yamamoto. “Demand remains robust as the HeartCore Go IPO brand continues to grow in the Japanese markets and attracts interest from companies seeking to list on a major U.S. exchange. Despite facing headwinds in a volatile IPO market, we continue to shepherd our clients through a typically grueling process with our white glove approach to ensure they’re successfully listed. The opportunities our consulting business brings to HeartCore’s overall financial potential and performance continue to remain a pillar in our long-term success. With notable progress and developments being made in our software business and global expansion initiatives, we remain focused on executing our two-pronged business and growth strategy.”

As part of the Consulting Agreement, HeartCore will assist Jyo in its efforts to go public and list on the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) or the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Through Go IPO, the Company services clients by assisting throughout the audit and legal firm hiring process, translating requested documents into English, assisting in the preparation of documentation for internal controls required for an initial public offering or de-SPAC, providing general support services, assisting in the preparation of the S-1 or F-1 filing, and more. As compensation for its services, HeartCore expects to generate from Jyo an aggregate of $700,000 in initial fees. In addition, HeartCore has received a warrant to acquire 2% of Jyo’s common stock, on a fully diluted basis.
