The massive revenue increase stems largely from one key development. AMTD Digital consolidated The Generation Essentials Group as a subsidiary in October 2024. This move boosted the company’s media and entertainment operations.

Revenue Breakdown Shows Multiple Growth Drivers

Hotel operations, hospitality and VIP services brought in $13.6 million. This represents a 172.4% increase from the prior year period.

Fashion, arts and luxury media advertising and marketing services generated $10.0 million in revenue. This compares to $4.4 million in the same period of fiscal 2024.

The company also recorded $47.9 million in dividend income and fair value gains on financial assets. These financial gains contributed to the overall revenue picture.

Net assets stood at $548.0 million, or $4.34 per share. The company appears to have built a solid asset base during this growth period.

Expenses Rise Alongside Revenue Growth

Operating costs increased as the business expanded. Employee benefit expenses climbed to $8.6 million from $2.2 million in the comparable period.

Other expenses grew to $11.0 million from $4.3 million year-over-year. Finance costs jumped 51.7% to $6.1 million.

The higher finance costs reflect increased bank borrowings and interest-bearing amounts owed to a non-controlling shareholder. These expenses came with the territory of rapid expansion.

Basic earnings per share came in at $0.22 for the period. This actually decreased from $0.46 in the same period of 2024.

The lower EPS figure suggests dilution occurred despite the strong profit growth. More shares outstanding meant less earnings allocated to each individual share.
