PARIS & NEW YORK & SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AMTD Group Inc. ("AMTD" or the "Group"), alongside The Generation Essentials Group, a subsidiary of the Group under AMTD Digital, jointly announced that we have successfully registered our ART OF LUXURY trademark (the "Mark").

The registrations cover the following classes under the International Classification of Goods and Services for the Purposes of the Registration of Marks established by the Nice Agreement (the "Nice Classification"):

• Class 9 - Downloadable computer software applications for use in viewing, storing and organizing electronic publications, etc.;

• Class 43 - Provision of food and drink; hotels, canteen, cafeteria and restaurant services; bar and catering services, etc.; and
