- Enhanced operational profitability with continuous substantial growth in revenue and gross profit - - US$50 million share repurchase program reflects Company's confidence in Amber International's business momentum and long-term growth trajectory - SINGAPORE, Nov. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Amber International Holding Limited (Nasdaq: AMBR) ("Amber International", "we," "us," or the "Company"), a global leading digital wealth management platform, today announced unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, and approval from its board of directors of a share repurchase program with an aggregate value of up to US$50.0 million.
Michael Wu, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Amber International, commented, "We delivered another profitable quarter, as we intensified our focus on high-quality, higher-margin revenue streams and achieved a significant enhancement in operating profit margin from continuing operations—from –4% in the previous quarter to +8% in Q3. These results are a testament to our disciplined execution and strengthened operating leverage, which together underpin our trajectory toward sustainable and profitable growth. This progress is further evidenced by quarterly revenue of US$16.3 million, net income from continuing operations of US$2.2 million, and Adjusted EBITDA of US$2.9 million. We also continued to build for long-term scalability—advancing AI integration across our internal processes, enhancing productivity, and accelerating the development of our standardized Real World Asset ("RWA") platform to meet rising institutional demand. With our disciplined focus, we are well positioned to extend our profitability and capture new opportunities across digital wealth, tokenization, and AI-driven financial infrastructure. Following our strong results, we are pleased to authorize a share repurchase program, reflecting our confidence in the strength and scalability of Amber's core digital wealth management business and ability to generate sustainable cash flows." Vicky Wang, President of Amber International, added, "This quarter, we further deepened our focus on high-net-worth, ultra-high-net-worth, and institutional clients, while accelerating initiatives in infrastructure, product innovation, and operational discipline. We intentionally focused on improving revenue quality and expanding higher-margin product offerings, which contributed meaningfully to margin expansion. Client assets on our platform grew 69.8% year-over-year to US$1.84 billion, accompanied by significant growth in trading volumes—clear indicators of enhanced client engagement and the durability of our diversified revenue streams. Looking ahead, we remain committed to delivering private banking-grade services and product sophistication to elevate revenue quality, scalability, and long-term defensibility, positioning us for continued sustainable growth." Third Quarter 2025 Highlights
Business Developments and Strategic Updates In the third quarter of 2025, Amber International delivered strong operational and financial performance while executing on key strategic initiatives to expand its addressable market. High-Quality Revenue Mix and Margin Expansion: During the quarter, management continued its deliberate focus on high-quality and high-margin revenue streams. The Company allocated resources to more profitable product lines, leading to a meaningful improvement in operating profit margin from continuing operations from –4% in Q2 2025 to +8% in Q3 2025. Growth was broad-based across execution solutions and payment solutions, reflecting both improved revenue quality and deepening client demand for our integrated platform. The Company will enhance execution capabilities and expand product offerings to meet diverse client profiles. This includes broadening the structured product suite, developing digital-asset inheritance solutions for family offices and UHNW clients, and optimizing pricing models and OTC workflows for competitive execution and timely market access. Strengthening Client Metrics: Client assets on platform reached US$1.84 billion, up 69.8% year-over-year, reflecting accelerating institutional adoption. Cumulative KYC'ed users grew to 5,116 (+20.4% YoY), active clients increased to 1,045 (+11.8% YoY), and trading volumes expanded significantly with execution trading volume up 36.1% YoY and payment trading volume up 69.9% YoY. Strong net new asset inflows and stronger client allocations, together with a significant increase in trading volumes clearly demonstrates that clients are not only remaining with the Company, but are also deepening their engagement across multiple product lines, even amidst ongoing market volatility. AI Integration to Drive Efficiency and Scalable Growth: The Company continues to advance its AI roadmap, deepening the integration of AI-driven tools across internal workflows and client-facing platforms. Work With MIA and Perplexity-powered automation improved operational efficiency and decision-support capability, laying the foundation for enhanced scalability and long-term margin expansion. RWA Solution Launch: In September 2025, Amber Premium launched its full-stack Real World Asset (RWA) Solution—a comprehensive, turnkey platform designed to bring traditional assets onto the blockchain with institutional regulatory alignment. The solution encompasses structuring, regulatory-compliant custody, smart contract automation, cross-chain interoperability, and bank-grade security, supporting the entire lifecycle of tokenized assets from distribution to liquidity management and yield farming. Expansion of Digital Assets Treasury Services: The Company expanded its Digital Assets Treasury services to better serve publicly listed companies and corporations seeking institutional-grade digital-asset management. The Company offers a one-stop platform for RWA including consulting, trade execution, financing, custody, and compliance support, addressing the critical gap between corporate digital asset acquisition and effective treasury management. Share Repurchase Program Following the Company's achievement of operating profitability and in recognition of its strong financial position, the Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to US$50 million of the Company's ADSs over the next 12 months, starting from December 1, 2025. Under the share repurchase program, the Company may repurchase its ADSs from time to time through open market transactions at prevailing market prices, privately negotiated transactions, block trades or any combination thereof. The Company will effect repurchase transactions in compliance with Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 as applicable under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and its insider trading policy. The number of ADSs repurchased and the timing of repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, share price, trading volume and general market conditions, along with the Company's working capital requirements and general business conditions. The Company's Board of Directors will review the share repurchase program periodically, and may authorize adjustment of its terms and size. The Company plans to fund the repurchases from a combination of its cash balance and cash generated from its operations, and does not expect the repurchase program to adversely affect its existing business strategies. Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results Summary On March 12, 2025, iClick Interactive Asia Group Limited ("iClick") completed its merger (the "Merger") with Amber DWM Holding Limited ("Amber DWM")[3]. The Merger is accounted for as a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Merger is treated as the equivalent of Amber DWM issuing shares for the acquisition of iClick, accompanied by a recapitalization, for accounting purposes. The financial results of iClick have been included in our consolidated financial results since March 12, 2025.
The Company optimizes our business to drive returns to the shareholders through proactive monitoring our operations and market trends. As of the end of third quarter of 2025, certain operations under iClick were classified as held-for-sale, and we completed one of the disposals in October 2025. On October 28, 2025, the WFTL Assigned Contracts were assumed by AG Global Technology Limited Inc., which is also a wholly owned subsidiary of Amber Group and an affiliate of the Company, and Amber Match Limited, one of our wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into intercompany services agreement with AG Global Technology Limited Inc. to replace its previous agreement with WFTL on substantially the same terms. The following table sets forth the key financial metrics of the Company for the periods indicated.
Revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was US$16.3 million, a 1,934.6% increase year-over-year, primarily driven by WFTL Assigned Contracts which was assigned to us starting from January 1, 2025, and to a lesser extent, due to the significant growth in Amber Premium Business, along with contributions from Marketing and Enterprise Solutions following the Merger: 1) Revenue from Wealth Management Solutions was US$7.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, a significant increase from US$0.5 million in the same period of 2024. It was achieved by stronger adoption of wealth management offerings, which were supported by the WFTL Assigned Contracts, as well as increased demand on our diverse investment products and services such as new accumulator/decumulator products launched in the fourth quarter of 2024. 2) Revenue from Execution Solutions grew to US$3.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to US$0.1 million in the same period of 2024. The growth was driven by revenue generated from the WFTL Assigned Contracts, together with higher average fee rate and spread in this quarter. 3) Revenue from Payment Solutions was US$1.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, increased from US$0.1 million for the same period of 2024, mainly contributed by the WFTL Assigned Contracts. 4) Marketing and Enterprise Solutions revenue was US$4.4 million in the third quarter of 2025, generated from online marketing, SaaS products and services under iClick's operations after the Merger. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2025 reached US$11.8 million, compared to US$0.4 million in the same period of 2024. Gross profit margin demonstrated an upward trend to 72.3% in the third quarter of 2025, from 44.7% in the third quarter of 2024. These changes were mainly fueled by the WFTL Assigned Contracts starting from January 1, 2025, as well as accelerated growth of our core Amber Premium business, and higher margin of marketing and enterprise solutions. Total operating expenses were US$10.4 million in the third quarter of 2025, increased from US$2.1 million in the third quarter of 2024. The change was primarily due to the increase of personnel expenses, technology and development expenses, and legal and other professional service fees to support our ongoing business expansion. Operating income was US$1.4 million in the third quarter of 2025, achieved a turnaround from US$1.8 million operating loss in the third quarter of 2024, driven by the significant increase in gross profit and strengthened operating leverage. Other gains, net was US$0.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to US$0.9 million in the third quarter of 2024. Other gains, net in the third quarter of 2024 were mainly driven by unrealized gain in fair value of digital assets in connection with a related party's loan, which was subsequently waived prior to the Merger. Net income from continuing operations was US$2.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to net loss from continuing operations of US$0.8 million in the third quarter of 2024, as a result of the foregoing. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income from continuing operations were US$2.9 million and US$2.7 million, respectively in the third quarter of 2025, compared to adjusted EBITDA, a loss at US$1.8 million and adjusted net loss at US$1.8 million in the third quarter of 2024. Net loss from discontinued operations was US$1.7 million in the third quarter of 2025, related to the financial results of certain operations under iClick that were held-for-sale as of quarter end. Balance Sheet Highlights As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents, time deposits and restricted cash of US$39.9 million, compared to US$9.3 million as of December 31, 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company uses adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, adjusted net income/(loss) from continuing operations, and diluted adjusted net income/(loss) from continuing operations per ADS, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating the Company's operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, adjusted net income/(loss) from continuing operations, and diluted adjusted net income/(loss) from continuing operations per ADS help identify underlying trends in the Company's business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the expenses and gains that the Company includes in net income/(loss). The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and adjusted net income/(loss) from continuing operations provide useful information about the Company's operating results, enhance the overall understanding of the Company's past performance and future prospects, assess operating performance on a consistent basis, and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company's management in its financial and operational decision-making. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, adjusted net income/(loss) from continuing operations, and diluted adjusted net income/(loss) from continuing operations per ADS should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to net income/(loss) or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of the Company's operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review the historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, adjusted net income/(loss) from continuing operations, and diluted adjusted net income/(loss) from continuing operations per ADS presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company's data. The Company encourages investors and others to review the Company's financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this press release. These non-GAAP financial measures were presented with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures together for facilitating a more comprehensive understanding of operating performance between periods.
