The Company believes the proposed transaction will position First Hydrogen at the convergence of several high-growth sectors, including robotics, clean energy, hydrogen, autonomous systems, artificial intelligence and advanced mobility.

Robotics market driven by automation and AI adoption

The global robotics sector is experiencing rapid expansion as businesses increasingly adopt automation to address labour shortages, improve productivity and deploy AI-enabled systems.

Demand for advanced robotic platforms continues to grow across industrial, commercial and mobility applications.

At the core of these systems are actuation, gearbox and motor technologies, which enable controlled movement, precision, load handling, durability and energy efficiency. These components are essential for the performance and reliability of modern robotic systems.

Extensive intellectual property portfolio supports commercial applications

The robotics technology company involved in the transaction owns or licenses 26 issued patents and 10 pending patents, along with related intellectual property covering robotics technologies, actuation gearboxes and high-performance motors.

Its technologies have been tested and successfully deployed by robotics, automotive and packaging companies worldwide.

The company’s actuators combine human-like dexterity with machine precision, converting electrical energy into controlled motion that enables robotic systems to perform complex, repetitive and hazardous tasks traditionally carried out by manual labour.

These technologies serve as foundational components for a wide range of applications, including industrial robotics, electric mobility systems and emerging autonomous platforms such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and drones.

Strategic addition to First Hydrogen’s advanced mobility ecosystem

The proposed acquisition would add a significant robotics, actuation and motion-control platform to First Hydrogen’s growing clean energy and advanced mobility ecosystem.

The actuation, gearbox and motor technologies are designed to precisely control motion, enabling robotic systems to carry out complex, repetitive, high-load and hazardous operations with greater efficiency and reliability.

Launch of First Humanoid Corp.

As part of its broader robotics and artificial intelligence strategy, First Hydrogen has incorporated First Humanoid Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary that will hold, develop and commercialise intellectual property related to robotics, humanoid robotics, autonomous systems and AI-enabled technologies.

To support future branding, technology development and commercialisation initiatives, the company has also secured the domain names FirstHumanoid.com and FirstHumanoid.ai.

Humanoid robotics represents a multi-trillion-dollar opportunity

The company believes humanoid robotics represents one of the largest emerging technology markets globally.

According to Morgan Stanley Research, the humanoid robotics market could reach $5 trillion by 2050, excluding the broader supply chains, repair services, maintenance and support industries expected to develop around the sector.

Morgan Stanley further estimates that more than one billion humanoid robots could be in operation worldwide by 2050.
