VCI Global (VCIG) pivots to AI infrastructure, launches VGAIN Compute; 1H2026 equity up but revenue plunges

AI Summary

VCI Global reported 1H2026 unaudited results and said it is shifting from capital markets/fintech to AI computing, token services and related infrastructure, launching VGAIN Compute and agreeing to acquire a 70% stake in an Indonesian carbon-asset platform (FCCI). Financially, total equity rose 19.2% to $114.7M, liabilities fell 17.7% to $17.03M and cash increased to $5.19M, but revenue dropped 86% to $2.56M and the company posted a $8.43M net loss after divesting non-core businesses. VGAIN Compute is live with a token-based model giving paid access to multiple LLMs (OpenAI GPT, Meta Llama, Kimi, Qwen); commercial traction, GPU capacity deployment and financing will determine whether the strategic pivot translates into recurring revenue.
