KUALA LUMPUR, March 23 — Malaysia’s leading integrated digital media solutions provider iMedia has signed a term sheet to acquire up to 80 per cent stake in Headline Media Sdn Bhd (Headline Media).

In a statement today, it said that the acquisition is set to further boost iMedia’s digital media ecosystem and to expand its reach within Malaysia, especially among the English-speaking community.

“We are thrilled to welcome Headline Media to the iMedia family. We have been looking to grow the English-speaking audience within our digital portfolio and Headline Media is a perfect fit,” Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of iMedia Voon Tze Khay said.

It also said that the acquisition is expected to contribute meaningfully to iMedia’s projected profit before tax of RM11 million in 2023.

iMedia has also signed an Exclusive Sales Representation Agreement that will see iMedia responsible for the acceleration of revenue for the four brands under Headline Media.

As part of the acquisition, all social media assets under Headline Media will be fully integrated into iMedia’s ecosystem.

“The acquisition is well-aligned with iMedia's growth strategy which focuses on M&A and operational improvements to strengthen its digital media portfolio. With the addition of Headline Media's reach, iMedia's combined network of owned and managed brands will reach over 13.2 million Malaysians every month,” it said.
