TGE Announces Share Repurchase Program and Voluntary Lock-Up by Controlling ShareholderJune 17, 2026 9:12 AM
PR Newswire (US) PARIS and NEW YORK and LONDON, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Generation Essentials Group ("TGE") (NYSE: TGE; LSE: TGE), a subsidiary of AMTD Digital Inc. (NYSE: HKD), announces that TGE's Board of Directors has approved a share repurchase program under which TGE may repurchase up to US$10 million of its ordinary shares. TGE's proposed repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, in block trades and/or through other legally permissible means, depending on market conditions and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. The timing and dollar amount of repurchase transactions will be subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-18 and/or Rule 10b5-1 requirements. TGE's board of directors may review the share repurchase program periodically and may authorize adjustment of its terms and size. TGE expects to fund the repurchases out of its existing cash balance.Upon completion of several hotel acquisitions, TGE's total asset value of approximately US$1.7 billion, represent a 17.7% increase over the audited total asset value as of December 31, 2025. Its net assets are expected to approximate US$971 million, a 15.8% increase over the audited year-end net asset value. The Board believes that TGE's shares are drastically undervalued, given that current share prices are trading at a significant discount relative to net asset and total asset values per share.The new share repurchase program is intended to enhance shareholder value and demonstrate the Board's confidence in TGE's long-term prospects, asset strengths, and robust capital position.  Concurrently, TGE announced that its controlling shareholder, AMTD Digital Inc., directors, and management team have voluntarily agreed not to sell any of their TGE shares for two years from the date of this announcement, further reinforcing their long-term commitment to and confidence in TGE.About AMTD GroupAMTD Group is a conglomerate with a core business portfolio spanning across media and entertainment, education and training, and premium assets and hospitality sectors.About AMTD IDEA GroupAMTD IDEA Group (NYSE: AMTD; SGX: HKB) represents a diversified institution and digital solutions conglomerate group, connecting companies and investors with global markets.

AMTD Announces Successful Acquisition of Dao by Dorsett Hornsey Hotel for US$30 Million and Agreement to Acquire Historic Hornsey Town Hall for US$33 millionJune 2, 2026 9:17 AM
PR Newswire (US) PARIS, NEW YORK and LONDON, June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AMTD Group Inc. ("AMTD Group"), AMTD IDEA Group ("AMTD IDEA") (NYSE: AMTD; SGX: HKB), AMTD Digital Inc. (NYSE: HKD) and The Generation Essentials Group (NYSE: TGE; LSE: TGE), a subsidiary of AMTD Digital Inc., (collectively, "AMTD") jointly announce the successful acquisition of the Dao by Dorsett Hornsey Hotel by AMTD IDEA for approximately US$30 million (GBP23 million). The acquisition was completed without utilizing any external financing, including the term loan facility made available to AMTD IDEA relating to this transaction as previously announced. Located in the heart of Crouch End, London, Dao by Dorsett Hornsey Hotel is situated within the restored Grade II listed Hornsey Town Hall complex and comprises 68 serviced apartments and hotel rooms for mixed use purposes, including a mix of studios and suites. Following completion of the acquisition, the hotel will be renamed AMTD Dao by Dorsett Hornsey, becoming AMTD's fifth branded hotel, alongside AMTD hotels in Hong Kong, New York, Singapore, and Malaysia. The completion of this Hornsey transaction represents another important strategic milestone in the expansion of AMTD's hospitality portfolio.In conjunction with the hotel acquisition, AMTD IDEA also entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the historic Hornsey Town Hall, a 1930s London civic landmark comprising an Assembly Hall, Council Chamber, Committee Room, rooftop bar, cinema, town hall square and a variety of flexible event spaces and workspaces, for US$33 million (GBP25 million). The Town Hall has long served as a major art and cultural hub in London. Queen played their first London gig in February 1971, with artists such as Ray Davies and The Rolling Stones also performing there. Over the years, the building has featured in numerous TV, film and theatre productions and commercials, including The Crown, Rupert the Bear, Criminal Justice, Spooks, The Hour, Whitechapel, and, most famously, the film Bohemian Rhapsody. The Town Hall continues this legacy today by hosting events and festivals throughout the year, which brings the community together for live music, food and craft stalls, and openair cinema. Following the acquisition, AMTD plans to leverage its strengths as a leading fashion and art media company to introduce and connect art festivals and cultural initiatives to Hornsey Town Hall, further establishing it as a vibrant hub for art and culture. The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to take place in the near future.About AMTD Group

AMTD L'Officiel expands successfully and globally with full legal rights and IP registrationsJanuary 28, 2026 5:52 PM
PR Newswire (US)

PARIS and NEW YORK and LONDON, Jan. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AMTD Group Inc. ("AMTD Group"), AMTD IDEA Group (NYSE: AMTD; SGX: HKB), AMTD Digital Inc. (NYSE: HKD) and The Generation Essentials Group ("TGE", NYSE: TGE; LSE: TGE), a subsidiary of AMTD Digital Inc., jointly announce continual successes in the ongoing protection of their global intellectual properties portfolio.







AMTD Group is the 100% global owner of the L'Officiel and AMTD IDEA brands, which have been expanding rapidly through multi-faceted conduits on a global basis.======Our brands have strong global presence, with key trademarks and intellectual properties including notably the above three trademarks registered and well-protected in over 60 countries around the world.Successful action has already been taken against various infringers, including against Luxury Village LLC and its director Dimitri Vorontsov in connection with the illegitimate publication of L'Officiel Fashion Book (see official announcements by AMTD in relation to successful actions taken in Hong Kong court (AMTD Digital, Inc. - AMTD's Successful Action Against IP Infringement); with the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center (AMTD Achieves Another Victory and Further Action Against IP Infringements | AMTD International Inc.); and with the Registrar of Trade Marks of IP Australia (Consecutive Victories by TGE and AMTD Against IP Infringements | AMTD International Inc.).   Geomedia SA and Geomedia SA's improper application against AMTD Group in the Paris Court has been found to be null and void======Most recently, AMTD has taken action against the former licensee for L'Officiel in Morocco, Geomedia SA, in the Moroccan Court, due to improper use of by Geomedia SA of the intellectual properties of L'Officiel and AMTD.  Furthermore, Geomedia SA's improperly attempted application against AMTD Group in the Paris Court has been found to be null and void, and the entire proceedings quashed. This clearly demonstrates that any illegitimate parties, with no legal entitlement or capacity, regardless of where in the world they have sought to take legal actions or complaints, will be destined to fail against ample facts and truth.  We are committed to pursuing, defending and winning these cases under any legal regimes. Malicious Falsehoods and Defamatory Conduct by the Jalou Family======Any wrongful allegations and articles against AMTD, including those orchestrated by the Jalou family are entirely false and brought in bad faith. In contrast, summarised below are simple and irrefutable facts:1) Acquisition: AMTD bought 100% of the L'Officiel companies from Gem Global Yield LLC SCS (GEM) as the lead controller, with Gibson Dunn advising on the transaction. Both AMTD and GEM announced publicly settlement of 100% of the consideration on deal completion (see official announcements by GEM as lead seller https://www.gemny.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/GEM-AMTD-PRESS-RELEASE-from-Paris-France-FINAL-Version.pdf and AMTD as the buyer https://ir.amtdinc.com/press-releases/news-details/2022/AMTD-International-Acquires-Global-Fashion-Media-Group-LOfficiel-Inc-SAS/default.aspx).2. Historic Mismanagement before the Acquisition: Before the acquisition, the previous management, the Jalou family, incurred significant amounts of debt, which led to the French court implemented a continuation plan for payments of the debts incurred by the Jalou family. None of these debts are incurred by or as a result of AMTD's acquisition. Subsequently, AMTD L'Officiel has not incurred any new debt to develop and grow the business.3. AMTD has saved the L'Officiel companies from historic debts: AMTD came into play as a "white knight" in a 100% acquisition, and inherited a "legacy" of debts under the continuation plan.  Nonetheless, all the instalments becoming due under the continuation plan since then have been fully paid on time.4. Value protection and growth: AMTD has preserved jobs and protected value in L'Officiel, supporting and creating sustainable growth, fulfilling our promise to save a company which was close to bankruptcy.5. Unfounded attempts to cause confusion: Any misleading comments with bad intentions to "muddy the water", including claims for ownership of intellectual properties, are clearly unfounded - intellectual properties of a company is not owned by shareholders (not to mention the minority shareholder) and speculation around intellectual properties disputes are entirely untruthful and unfounded.6. AMTD is committed to taking action: Based on the facts outlined above, as previously announced https://ir.amtdinc.com/press-releases/news-details/2026/AMTD-Owner-of-LOfficiel-and-AMTD-IDEA-Brands-Launches-Litigation-against-Jalou-Family-for-Malicious-Falsehood-Defamation-and-Consequential-Loss-and-Damage/default.aspx AMTD has filed criminal reports to the police and is pursuing litigation against the Jalou family.   Summary ======AMTD believes strongly in pursuing justice and fairness, in the French Courts and in all other jurisdictions around the world, and is delighted that the Courts have again found in AMTD's favour. Furthermore and to date, AMTD has successfully cancelled 16 illegitimate domain names, as appended to this announcement.AMTD will not rest in its journey to further strengthen the strong and sustainable L'Officiel AMTD brand, backed by ample resources supported by three listed companies, across New York, London and Singapore. We also here announce our determination to continue taking action against infringers and scammers who seek to misuse and misappropriate our brands. Appendix About AMTD GroupAMTD Group is a conglomerate with a core business portfolio spanning across media and entertainment, education and training, and premium assets and hospitality sectors.About AMTD IDEA GroupAMTD IDEA Group (NYSE: AMTD; SGX: HKB) represents a diversified institution and digital solutions group connecting companies and investors with global markets.
