AMTD IDEA Group Announces ADS Ratio Change

AMTD IDEA Group (the “Company”) (NYSE: AMTD; SGX: HKB), a subsidiary of AMTD Group Company Limited and a leading platform for comprehensive financial services and digital solutions, today announced that it will change the ratio of its American depositary shares (“ADSs”) to its Class A ordinary shares (the “ADS Ratio”), par value US$0.0001 per share, from the current ratio of one (1) ADS to one (1) Class A ordinary share to a new ratio of one (1) ADS to two (2) Class A ordinary shares. The Company anticipates that the change in the ADS Ratio will be effective on or about November 22, 2022 (U.S. Eastern Time) (the “Effective Date”).

For the Company’s ADS holders, the change in the ADS Ratio will have the same effect as a one-for-two reverse ADS split. On the Effective Date, ADS holders will be required to surrender and exchange every two (2) ADSs then held for one (1) new ADS. The Bank of New York Mellon, as the depositary bank for the Company’s ADS program, will arrange for the exchange of the current ADSs for the new ones. The Company’s ADSs will continue to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “AMTD.”

No fractional new ADSs will be issued in connection with the change in the ADS Ratio. Instead, fractional entitlements to new ADSs will be aggregated and sold by the depositary bank and the net cash proceeds from the sale of the fractional ADS entitlements (after deduction of fees, taxes, and expenses) will be distributed to the applicable ADS holders by the depositary bank. The change in the ADS Ratio will have no impact on the Company’s underlying Class A ordinary shares, and no ordinary shares will be issued or cancelled in connection with the change in the ADS Ratio.
