Ryde Group Ltd (NYSE American: RYDE) (“Ryde” or the “Company”), a leading technology platform for mobility and quick commerce, today said the Company is not aware of any operational developments or other material events that may have caused the volatility in the Company’s recent share price. The Company remains focused on executing its long-term growth strategy and delivering value to our shareholders.
Terence Zou, Group CEO & Founder of Ryde, stated, “Our fundamentals are strong, and we remain committed to sustainable growth. The recent share price fluctuations do not reflect the progress we have made since our NYSE listing in March 2024. The key management and shareholders have not divested any of their shares and remain confident in the Company’s future.
Key developments include:
1. AI-powered app redesign
In May 2024, we made significant improvements to enhance user interface by focusing on current design trends, language, and the use of AI with a more intuitive navigation experience for the riders.
2. Dual listing on the Frankfurt (FSE) and Stuttgart (XSTU) Stock Exchanges under the symbol D0S
In June 2024, we successfully completed our secondary listing on the FSE and XSTU Stock Exchanges, strategically expanding our investor base and making our unique value proposition more accessible to the European markets.
3. Healthcare Partnership
In June 2024, we partnered with a telehealth care provider to enhance the well-being of Ryde’s driver-partners and their families by providing them with greater access to affordable healthcare services.
4. Ryde Empowers Initiative
In July 2024, we announced Ryde Empowers, a 12-month groundbreaking initiative designed to nurture and support local talent across various fields, including athletics, community service leaders, artists, and musicians in Singapore. Singaporean professional tennis player Sarah Pang joined us as the first champion of the Ryde Empowers’ program.
5. Partnership with Financial Services Company
In August 2024, we announced a strategic partnership with financial services company, Singlife, that provides accident benefits to all Ryde passengers and driver-partners.”
Mr. Zou concluded, “We believe these developments demonstrate our strong fundamentals and commitment to innovation. We remain confident in our ability to continue to grow the business and deliver value to our shareholders. We will continue to evolve and enhance the driver and rider experience while pursuing sustainable growth”.
