AURA (Aurora Design Public Company) successfully raised 3.5 billion baht through its first bond offering of 2026, exceeding targets. The company released two bond series (18-month and 30-month maturities) during August 25-27, 2026, backed by strong institutional investor demand. Strong H1 2026 results (revenue +67.9% YoY to 29.7 billion baht, net profit +22% to 928.5 million baht) demonstrate business resilience despite gold price volatility. Proceeds will fund business expansion, including pawn lending under the "Thong Ma Ngoen Pai" brand (targeting 829 branches and 12 billion baht in pawn portfolio by year-end) and new IP-licensed gold jewelry collections (Disney collaborations).
