Target

KOSDAQ-listed aesthetic medical-device maker founded in 2009 that develops RF microneedling devices for skin lifting and wrinkle improvement (Sylfirm X, Scarlet) and consumables; listed in 2020 via a SPAC merger.

Deal rationale

VIG Partners said it would acquire DMS's 34.76% stake through SPC Vienna Investment Purpose Co. and tender for the remaining shares at KRW 12,500 to pursue a voluntary delisting (The Fact). DMS contributed its shares in kind to hold 46.09% of the SPC as second-largest shareholder; reports linked the sale to DMS's own delisting risk after an audit disclaimer on its 2024 report. Asiae reported LYFE Capital and Daishin PE as financial investors in the SPC's parent.
