Today we’re going to talk about a company whose products and services are used by over 1.4 million customers and over a billion users in more than180 countries. 

Make a guess – how does eSignature company DocuSign sound? Founded in 2003, DocuSign is a pioneer of electronic signatures and helps businesses automate how they prepare, sign, act on and manage agreements. Put simply, it is a tech firm that allows users to digitally sign in a secure manner.

DocuSign’s platforms currently have over 400 pre-built integrations with popular business applications, and is also able to seamlessly connect with customers’ websites, mobile apps and custom workflows. 

The firm sees millions of transactions a day and counts some of the biggest corporations as its customers – with Singtel, CapitaLand, Canva, Tokopedia and Guzman Y Gomez among those using its services. 

In particular, it saw a boom in demand over the pandemic as businesses shifted their operations online. But with the resumption of in-person meetings post-pandemic, what will this mean for DocuSign when it comes down to finances?

Speaking of the future, the firm is doubling down on innovation. One of its most recent features allows users to send real-time notifications on WhatsApp that directly link to agreements to enable quick and secure signing. But how crucial is innovation to top and bottom lines for DocuSign? 

Meanwhile, - Reuters reported in January that Bain Capital and Hellman & Friedman are competing to acquire the firm with a market value of about US$12.5 billion. But what can we expect on this front?

On Under the Radar, The Evening Runway’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Shaun McLagan, Group VP and General Manager for APJ, DocuSign.

Helping companies build resilience, unlock growth opportunities and navigate evolving regulations landscape across issues surrounding carbon, waste and energy – that’s what we’re going to talk about today.

Founded in 2013, our guest Evercomm is a Singapore-based engineering and technology company that aims to assist enterprises in optimising resource efficiency, managing climate risk scenarios and meeting international compliance standards to ensure long-term operational and financial sustainability. 

This is done through the use of the firm’s advanced planning and simulation tools that provide precision-driven carbon, energy and waste reduction strategies that are customised for different company’s needs and operations. 

The company said its strategic partners include CTBC Bank, Mitsubishi Electric as well as Shell Energy. Its solutions are also used in projects involving the Punggol Digital District and the Jurong Port.

But why are such asset performance management solutions provided by Evercomm Singapore critical to enterprises, particularly those in the energy intensive sector? 

What are the key opportunities for the firm particularly in Southeast Asia where emerging economies walk the tightrope between industrial growth and net-zero ambitions?

On Under the Radar, finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Ted Chen, Co-founder, CEO and Chief Product Architect, Evercomm.

We’ll revisit the real estate sector today by looking at a REIT that is solely focused on the UK market. 

Founded in 2020 and listed on the Singapore Exchange, Elite UK Reit aims to provide unitholders with what it calls a secure income stream from public sector tenants such as the UK Department for Work and Pensions. 

The Reit’s portfolio spans across 148 properties which are mostly freehold or virtually freehold in places within town centres, near amenities or transportation nodes. 

More notably, the Manager of the Reit said it is also tapping on sectors that exhibit strong growth potential in the UK, say purpose-built student accommodation and built-to-rent residential assets. 

On the whole, the manager said the Reit has what it describes as a “long and diversified lease expiry profile and prudent capital management”, and is positioned for sustainable stability and growth from government-leased properties and the living sector. 

All in, Elite UK Reit posted a distribution per unit of £0.0149 (1.49 British pence) for the second half of the 2025 financial year ended Dec 31. That’s around 1.4 per cent higher than the DPU seen in H2 2024. The figure also represented a payout ratio of 95 per cent. 

Elite UK Reit is a counter that we want to talk about given how the firm is on the charm offensive to appeal to the investing community. 

For one thing, the Reit had in February 2026 signed new lease agreements with the UK Government for properties occupied by the Department for Work and Pensions, a move that has helped it improve its Weighted Average Lease Expiry (or WALE) to 7.2 years from 2.4 years. The Reit’s manager said this is one of the longest WALE duration among Singapore Reits. 

Beyond that, the Reit is also actively repositioning some of its properties including one in Peel Park, Blackpool. Its manager said the Reit has secured planning consent to develop a data centre building on the roughly 20-acre plot. So how will the moves augment the firm’s growth trajectory while increasing income stability?

On Under the Radar, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Joshua Liaw, CEO, Elite UK Reit.

Today we turn our attention to look at renewable energy as companies around the world look to decarbonise and reduce their consumption of traditional fossil fuels. 

Founded in 2008 with a mission to address the challenges of climate change, our guest for today is pure-play renewable fuel producer EcoCeres. 

Backed by international investors Bain Capital and Kerogen Capital, the company transforms sustainable feedstocks into advanced biofuels and renewable products such as Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) or Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO). 

The firm says its solutions turn 100% waste-based biomass into renewable fuels, renewable chemicals and materials resulting in up to 90% reduction in lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions. 

So far, EcoCeres said some of its customers include Cathay Pacific and HSBC, and that it holds 20% of the global SAF market in the years 2022 to 2023.

EcoCeres is a company that we want to speak to given the rise in adoption of biofuels around the world to cut greenhouse gas emissions. 

For one thing, the International Air Transport Association (or IATA) had estimated that Sustainable Aviation Fuel could contribute around 65% of the reduction of emissions needed by the aviation industry to reach net zero carbon dioxide emissions by the middle of this century (or 2050 that is).

So what opportunities does this present for EcoCeres looking ahead? What are the barriers to producing enough biofuels for consumption, and which markets will be key to the growth of the biofuels industry? 

Speaking of markets, EcoCeres opened Malaysia’s first commercial-scale sustainable aviation production facility in January 2026. But what were the reasons behind the move, and which are the other markets of interest to the firm? 

Meanwhile, media reports out in December 2025 and January 2026 noted that EcoCeres was eyeing a potential Hong Kong IPO that could raise about US$1 billion. 

But what was the rationale behind the move and how would the company use the proceeds, if it turns out to be true? 

On Under the Radar, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Matti Lievonen, CEO, EcoCeres.
