Royalty Management Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: RMCO) announced today its agreement to participate in an investment round for SAGINT Inc., a technology company specializing in compliant blockchain solutions for commodity traceability and tokenization. The investment is intended to support SAGINT's deployment and expansion of its platform that creates verifiable digital warehouse receipts and traceable digital assets, initially focusing on critical and rare earth minerals.
SAGINT, based in Chicago, IL, has developed a platform that transforms tangible assets, particularly commodities and natural resources, into secure, tradable digital tokens on blockchain. The platform offers tokenization, lifecycle management, and decentralized trading with real-time settlement, regulatory compliance, and transparent audit trails. This solution allows purchasers to verify that commodities are not sourced from conflict regions or countries of concern, addressing growing demand for supply chain integrity.
Royalty Management will leverage its portfolio companies to deploy SAGINT's proprietary platform for verifiable commodity source tracking, aiming to differentiate their operations and enhance services to customers. Thomas Sauve, CEO of Royalty Management, noted that increased attention on rare earth minerals produced outside China has driven demand for verification of origin to fortify supply chain resilience. He stated, "The tokenization that SAGINT has developed provides a much-needed solution to allow traceability of elements from the source."
Jacob Clayton, CEO of SAGINT Inc., expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, emphasizing alignment with Royalty Management's strategic focus on building a high-quality portfolio of resource royalties. He said, "This partnership reflects a shared commitment to innovation and long-term value creation in the critical minerals and resource sectors."
The investment is conditional upon completion of due diligence and is expected to close in early 2026. Royalty Management's investment will be part of a broader capital raising round alongside other private equity investors. For more information about SAGINT, visit www.sagint.com.
