TAICHUNG CITY, Taiwan, Aug. 12, 2026 <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com" target="_blank">(GLOBE NEWSWIRE)</a> -- Agencia Comercial Spirits Ltd (NASDAQ: AGCC) (“Agencia” or the “Company”), a company whose principal business operations comprise both its established premium whisky business and the development of AI computing infrastructure and cloud-based computing services, today announced that its subsidiary has entered into a five-year networking integration technical services agreement with an independent service provider in connection with the Company’s planned AI computing infrastructure deployment in Indonesia. The entry into this agreement marks a critical operational milestone as the Company continues to scale its AI computing infrastructure business in parallel with its existing established whisky operations. AI Computing Business Development Since launching its AI Computing Infrastructure Initiative in February 2026, a strategic undertaking now recognized as a co-primary business line, the Company has entered into a series of commercial and infrastructure arrangements supporting this principal business line, including a five-year computing technology services agreement with a customer in the digital financial services sector, power supply and data center land arrangements, and agreements relating to data center construction, network infrastructure procurement and technical support in Indonesia. To date, these previously announced agreements are progressing in accordance with their respective terms, and the Company continues to engage with suppliers to advance the construction timeline. The networking integration agreement announced today forms part of the continuing build-out of this infrastructure. The Company continues to operate its established whisky business as an equally principal, complementary line of business. Under the agreement, a regional network integration services provider will provide networking integration and related technical services supporting the Company’s computing infrastructure. The scope of services principally includes access to and sharing of networking resources, network planning and deployment, system integration and interconnection, network-wide connectivity, and ongoing network operation and maintenance support. The agreement has a basic service term of five years commencing from the applicable service commencement date. Fixed networking technical service fees under the agreement total US$10.0 million during the five-year service period. Certain infrastructure usage and operating costs associated with the networking services will be separately determined based on actual usage and the terms of the agreement. The service provider is also responsible for ongoing network-level technical support throughout the service term, including network monitoring, troubleshooting, maintenance and optimization designed to support stable connectivity and operation of the integrated computing infrastructure. The agreement forms part of the Company’s continuing development of its planned AI computing infrastructure and cloud-based computing services in Indonesia. Together with previously announced arrangements relating to data center construction, network infrastructure procurement, power supply and technical support, the agreement is intended to support the networking and operational infrastructure required for the Company’s planned computing deployment. The agreement is an infrastructure and technical services arrangement and is not a customer revenue contract. It does not, by itself, guarantee that the relevant computing infrastructure will be successfully completed or deployed, that contemplated computing capacity will become operational or be fully utilized, that customers will use the Company’s planned AI computing services, or that the Company will generate revenue, profitability or positive cash flow from the project. The Company’s AI computing infrastructure business is not an ancillary or exploratory venture; it is a principal business operation that the Company is actively scaling through dedicated capital expenditure, subsidiary structuring, and long-term infrastructure contracting. While the whisky business represents the Company’s historical revenue base, the AI computing initiative is a co-equal strategic priority intended to provide diversified revenue streams and long-term growth. The Company expects to continue allocating significant management attention and financial resources to both business lines as co-primary operations, with the “principal” designation reflecting the Company’s strategic capital commitment and operational focus rather than current revenue contribution from the AI segment. Management Commentary “This agreement is another step in the continuing build-out of our AI computing infrastructure business, which we are developing alongside our established whisky operations,” said Mr. TSAI Yi-Yang, CEO of Agencia. “Since launching the initiative earlier this year, we have been putting in place the customer, power, construction, network and technical-service arrangements required to support deployment. Our focus remains on disciplined execution and on building the infrastructure and operational capabilities needed to develop AI computing and cloud-based services as a significant part of Agencia’s future business.” Management believes that the Company’s planned infrastructure deployment, if successfully implemented, may provide an opportunity to participate in demand for AI computing capacity and related services in Southeast Asia. However, the Company’s AI computing infrastructure strategy remains subject to significant business, operational, financing, construction, technology, regulatory, customer demand and execution risks. About Agencia Comercial Spirits Ltd Agencia Comercial Spirits Ltd is a Nasdaq-listed company with two principal business focuses: (i) its established premium whisky operations; and (ii) the development of AI computing infrastructure and cloud-based computing services. These two lines of business represent the Company’s primary operational pillars, with the Company dedicating substantial resources to the development and scaling of its AI computing infrastructure business. The Company’s whisky operations include procurement and distribution of bottled whisky, procurement and distribution of raw cask whisky, and cask-to-bottle and distribution services, including brand-authorized bottling, packaging and sales, in Taiwan and select international markets. Since early 2026, the Company has launched and been developing its AI Computing Infrastructure Initiative through subsidiaries in Singapore, Indonesia and other jurisdictions. This initiative represents a principal business focus, backed by substantive contractual arrangements for commercial AI computing cloud services and the development of supporting data center, power, network and technical infrastructure. The Company’s historical operating revenue has been derived from its whisky operations, and the AI computing business remains in development and deployment and is subject to significant business, financing, construction, technology, regulatory, customer demand and execution risks.
