Riverchain Secures US$10 Million Funding Commitment from dLab Asset Management to
Scale Working Capital for Construction Contractors

The commitment significantly expands the funding capacity of Riverchain’s platform
as the Company continues to scale. Riverchain will originate working capital assets
purpose-built for the construction sector, which dLab’s commitment will fund. This
enables more contractors and subcontractors to access timely financing that is structured
around the realities of project cash flow.

**A partnership anchored in shared conviction**

The agreement pairs Riverchain’s origination-as-a-service (OaaS) solution with an
investment partner committed to long-term value creation. Riverchain sources, underwrites
and services construction receivables, drawing on its proprietary technology and
deep sector expertise. In turn, institutional partners such as dLab gain access 
to a high-quality, specialised asset class.

dLab’s strategy centres on financing SMEs through digital platforms, using data 
rather than company size to guide investment decisions across a diversified portfolio.
Riverchain provides that platform for the construction sector. It originates and
underwrites short-duration construction receivables using proprietary project and
payment data, giving dLab direct access to an asset class that traditional lenders
have historically underserved.

**Ben Wong, Founder and CEO of Riverchain,** said: "We are proud to welcome dLab
as a funding partner. dLab is a sophisticated investor with a long-term perspective
and a vision closely aligned with our own. The backing of a partner of this calibre
is a strong endorsement of our origination-as-a-service solution, our capabilities
and the opportunity ahead. This commitment enhances our capacity to support Hong
Kong’s contractors as we continue to scale."

**Hiro Takaku, CEO of dLab Asset Management,** said: "We believe that access to 
working capital should be driven by the quality of underlying business transactions,
rather than the size of a company. Riverchain combines deep construction industry
expertise with technology-driven origination and underwriting capabilities, making
it a natural partner for dLab’s Data-Based Finance strategy. Together, we aim to
channel more institutional capital into an underserved but essential sector of Hong
Kong’s economy."
