尚乘指控其存在恐嚇、惡意誹謗、違反保密義務的行為，並由此造成了損失和損害 巴黎、紐約和倫敦2026年1月16日 /美通社/ -- 尚乘集團股份有限公司（「尚乘集團」）、尚乘國際（紐約證券交易所(NYSE)代碼：AMTD；新加坡證券交易所(SGX)代碼：HKB）、尚乘數科（紐約證券交易所代碼：HKD）以及The Generation Essentials Group（「TGE」，紐約證券交易所代碼：TGE；倫敦證券交易所(LSE)代碼：TGE）聯合宣布，對伊娜-巴熱諾娃(Inna Bazhenova)和格列布-易卜拉欣莫夫(Gleb Ibragimov)提起訴訟，指控其存在恐嚇、惡意誹謗、違反保密義務的行為，並由此造成了損失和損害。 2023年，尚乘集團從伊娜-巴熱諾娃女士手中收購了《The Art Newspaper》，當時巴熱諾娃女士還親自發表了一篇關於該交易成功完成的文章，文章鏈接如下：https://www.theartnewspaper.com/2023/10/25/statement-by-inna-bazhenova-publisher-the-art-newspaper。該交易對價已全額支付，且交易已按正規流程結束並完成。 交易對價包括現金和尚乘集團旗下上市公司一定份額的股票，其中部分股票根據買賣協議（以下簡稱「協議」）設有鎖定期（以下簡稱「鎖定股」）。 在所有關鍵時間點，鎖定股均已被登記在巴熱諾娃女士及其商業伙伴兼顧問格列布-易卜拉欣莫夫先生名下，其中部分股份由巴熱諾娃女士分配給了易卜拉欣莫夫先生。 儘管如此，巴熱諾娃女士和易卜拉欣莫夫先生仍於2024年12月27日在香港提起法律訴訟，就該筆交易提出若干主張。儘管有明確證據顯示，且股份獨立登記機構發函向他們確認，這些鎖定股已被登記在二人名下，但他們仍申請對鎖定股下達資產保全令。 2025年6月20日，香港高等法院(Hong Kong High Court)全面駁回其資產保全令申請，並裁定他們需要承擔77.3萬港元的訴訟費用。2025年11月21日，其全部法律訴訟被駁回，且法院裁定他們需要承擔整場訴訟的全部費用。 隨後，2026年1月，易卜拉欣莫夫先生——以其個人身份及/或代表巴熱諾娃女士——向尚乘集團發出信息，表示除非尚乘集團同意以有利於巴熱諾娃女士的方式解決與鎖定股相關的事宜，否則其准備違反協議及/或違反保密義務，向包括記者在內的第三方披露與協議相關的事項。 尚乘和《The Art Newspaper》已就上述行為和舉動向執法部門報案。受上述事件影響，尚乘集團已遭受損失和損害。 因此，根據美國吉布森律師事務所(Gibson Dunn)的建議，尚乘集團已迅速對巴熱諾娃女士和易卜拉欣莫夫先生提起法律訴訟，並承諾將盡最大可能對二人行使法律權利。 此外，尚乘集團希望重申：我們將堅持不懈、全力以赴，確保針對任何對尚乘集團及其關聯公司與個人實施惡意和恐嚇行為的犯罪者，都能伸張正義、維護公平；並將對這類惡意行為人採取一切可能的補救措施和懲處手段。 尚乘集團簡介 尚乘集團是一家綜合企業集團，其核心業務組合涵蓋媒體娛樂、教育培訓以及高端資產與酒店服務等多個領域。 尚乘國際簡介 尚乘國際（紐約證券交易所代碼：AMTD；新加坡證券交易所代碼：HKB）是一家多元化機構與數字解決方案集團，致力於為企業與投資者搭建連接全球市場的橋梁。其綜合性一站式商業服務及數字解決方案平台，可以滿足不同客戶在生命周期各階段多元化、相互關聯的業務需求與數字化要求。尚乘國際憑借獨一無二的定位，成為客戶、商業伙伴、被投企業及投資者之間的活躍超級連接者，實現東西方市場的無縫對接。如需了解更多信息，請訪問www.amtdinc.com，或在X平台（原「推特」）關注@AMTDGroup。 尚乘數科簡介 尚乘數科（紐約證券交易所代碼：HKD）是一家總部位於法國的綜合數字解決方案平台。其一站式數字解決方案平台涵蓋數字媒體、內容與營銷服務、投資以及酒店和VIP服務等關鍵業務領域。如需了解尚乘數科的公告信息，請訪問https://ir.amtdigital.net/investor-news。 The Generation Essentials Group簡介 The Generation Essentials Group（紐約證券交易所代碼：TGE；倫敦證券交易所代碼：TGE）由尚乘集團、尚乘國際（紐約證券交易所代碼：AMTD；新加坡證券交易所代碼：HKB）和尚乘數科（紐約證券交易所代碼：HKD）共同設立，總部位於法國，專注於全球多媒體、娛樂及文化事務領域的戰略與發展，同時涉足酒店及VIP服務業務。TGE旗下涵蓋《L'Officiel》雜志、《The Art Newspaper》以及電影和娛樂項目等業務板塊，集媒體娛樂多元化業務與全球高端資產組合於一體。此外，TGE還是一家特殊目的收購公司(SPAC)發起方及管理機構，其首個SPAC項目已於2025年12月18日成功完成募資和定價。 安全港聲明 本新聞稿包含根據美國1995年《私人證券訴訟改革法案》「安全港」條款可能構成「前瞻性」陳述的表述。此類前瞻性陳述可以通過「將」、「預計」、「預期」、「旨在」、「未來」、「打算」、「計劃」、「認為」、「估算」、「可能」等術語及類似表述加以識別。凡非歷史事實的陳述，包括有關尚乘國際、尚乘數科及/或The Generation Essentials Group信念、計劃及預期的陳述，均屬前瞻性陳述。前瞻性陳述本身存在風險與不確定性。有關此類風險及其他風險的進一步信息，詳見尚乘國際、尚乘數科和The Generation Essentials Group向美國證券交易委員會(SEC)提交的文件。本新聞稿所載全部信息均截至發布日期，除適用法律要求外，尚乘國際、尚乘數科和The Generation Essentials Group均不承擔更新任何前瞻性陳述的義務。 垂詢詳情，請聯繫： 面向尚乘國際：投資者關係(IR)辦公室尚乘國際電郵：ir@amtdinc.com 面向尚乘數科：投資者關係辦公室尚乘數科電郵：ir@amtdigital.net 面向The Generation Essentials Group：投資者關係辦公室The Generation Essentials Group電郵：ir@tge.media

PARIS and NEW YORK and LONDON, Jan. 15, 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) jointly announce on launching litigation against Inna Bazhenova and Gleb Ibragimov for Intimidation, Malicious Falsehood, Breach of Confidence and Consequential Loss and Damage. In 2023, AMTD Group acquired The Art Newspaper from Ms Inna Bazhenova, who personally published an article about the successful completion of the deal at the time: https://www.theartnewspaper.com/2023/10/25/statement-by-inna-bazhenova-publisher-the-art-newspaper. The consideration for the transaction was fully paid, and the deal was duly closed and completed. The consideration comprised cash and certain shares in listed companies of AMTD Group, some of which were subject to a lock-up period ("Lock Up Shares") under the Sales and Purchase agreement (the "Agreement"). At all material times, the Lock Up Shares have been registered in the names of Ms Bazhenova and her business partner and advisor, Mr Gleb Ibragimov, who was allocated a part of the shares by Ms Bazhenova. Despite this, Ms Bazhenova and Mr Ibragimov commenced legal action in Hong Kong on 27 December 2024, making certain claims in relation to the transaction. They applied for an asset preservation order over the Lock Up Shares, despite clear evidence that the shares are registered in their names, as confirmed to them by letters from the independent registrar of the shares. On 20 June 2025, the Hong Kong High Court fully dismissed their application for an asset preservation order, and imposed a costs order of HK$773,000 against them. On 21 November 2025, their entire legal action was dismissed, with the costs of the whole action ordered against them. Subsequently, in January 2026, Mr Ibragimov—in his own capacity and/or for and on behalf of Ms Bazhenova—issued messages to AMTD Group, indicating readiness to breach the Agreement and/or their duty of confidence by disclosing matters relating to the Agreement to third parties, including journalists, unless AMTD Group agrees to a resolve matters concerning the Lock Up Shares in favour of Ms Bazhenova. The above conducts and actions have been reported to law enforcement authorities by AMTD and The Art Newspaper. As a result of the above, AMTD Group has suffered loss and damage. Therefore, as advised by Gibson Dunn, AMTD Group has promptly commenced legal action against Ms Bazhenova and Mr Ibragimov, and is committed to enforcing its legal rights against both individuals to the fullest extent possible. Furthermore, AMTD Group wishes to reiterate our persistence and dedication towards ensuring that justice and fairness prevail against any and all perpetrators of malicious and intimidating acts against AMTD Group and its related companies and individuals, and towards procuring all possible remedies and penalties against such malicious actors.

HONG KONG, Jan. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- HEYTEA has unveiled the refreshed HEYTEA K11 ART MALL store in Hong Kong and launched a new limited-edition beverage, "Black Truffle Scrambled Eggs Milk Tea." The brand invited its inspiration partners Twins to attend the launch event in person, welcoming the public to experience both the new beverage and the store's upgraded design. The event drew a large crowd of fans and visitors. The limited-edition drink was co-created by HEYTEA and Twins, drawing inspiration from the classic Hong Kong cha chaan teng dish, black truffle scrambled eggs. By reinterpreting a familiar local flavour through tea, the collaboration transforms everyday Hong Kong taste memories into a contemporary beverage experience. On the day of the launch, Twins participated in a live drink-making demonstration and interaction session, experiencing the preparation process firsthand and sharing their creative inspirations and tasting impressions. Black truffle scrambled eggs have become a widely recognised flavour on Hong Kong dining tables in recent years, and their transformation into a tea drink preserves their familiarity while introducing a fresh, unexpected twist — offering a new expression of Hong Kong flavour culture. "Black Truffle Scrambled Eggs Milk Tea" is the latest addition to HEYTEA's "Teamix" series, which the brand has been rolling out globally since 2025. It features a base of Yingde black tea, blended with fresh milk and a savoury milk layer with a pudding-smooth texture. Fresh black truffle is shaved on the drink at the point of serving, allowing its aroma to unfold naturally at the moment of pickup. Rather than replicating a dish, the beverage deconstructs and reassembles the flavour logic of cha chaan teng cuisine, resulting in a nuanced, layered tea experience. In conjunction with the product launch, the HEYTEA K11 ART MALL store has also completed a design upgrade and has launched a series of activities for Hong Kong consumers, including "Paint Inspiration, Free Tea" and the co-created "Inspiration Run" with Salomon. . As one of HEYTEA's key locations in Hong Kong, the store's refreshed interior draws inspiration from the concept of "shadow," incorporating natural wood elements and layered lighting to create a warm, rhythmic atmosphere. The façade combines metal, wooden latticework, and glass, allowing natural light and interior illumination to shift throughout the day, reflecting a restrained aesthetic aligned with Hong Kong's architectural character. Since entering the Hong Kong market in 2018, HEYTEA has continued to drive product and spatial innovation inspired by local culture. The limited-edition beverage and store refresh at K11 ART MALL represent the brand's latest exploration of transforming everyday Hong Kong flavours into contemporary tea experiences. HEYTEA currently operates 11 stores across Hong Kong, spanning multiple core commercial districts, and continues to strengthen its connection with local culture through creative products and in-store experiences. Globally, HEYTEA has established its store network across Asia, North America, Europe and Oceania, with the number of its stores in China's Hong Kong and Macao and overseas exceeding 100. In recent years, the brand has centred its creative direction on "city inspiration," launching localised products and cross-disciplinary collaborations across markets, and building a strong recognisable brand identity among younger consumers worldwide. The limited-edition "Black Truffle Scrambled Eggs Milk Tea" is available from January 13 for a limited time at the HEYTEA K11 ART MALL store in Hong Kong. About HEYTEA Founded in 2012 in Jiangmen, Guangdong, China, HEYTEA is widely recognized as the originator of new-style tea beverages. The brand created the world's first cheese tea using real tea and real milk, setting a new standard for the industry. HEYTEA is committed to using real ingredients, including real tea, real milk, real fruit, and real sugar, while continuously reimagining tea culture through products and experiences that resonate with young consumers. Today, HEYTEA operates more than 100 locations across Hong Kong and Macao Special Administrative Regions (SAR), as well as overseas in Asia, North America, Europe, and Oceania.

Flagship W4 Earbuds Become the Most Accurate Interpreter Device Ever Released LAS VEGAS, Jan. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Timekettle, the global leader in AI-powered cross-language communication, today announces a major system-wide upgrade that redefines what real-time translation can achieve. Central to this leap forward is Timekettle's new SOTA (State of the Art) Translation Engine Selector, a behind-the-scenes but transformative capability that dynamically identifies the optimal translation model for each language pair and conversational scenario in real time. SOTA Translation Engine Selector While invisible to the user, the impact is unmistakable: the fastest, most precise, and most natural translations Timekettle has ever delivered, regardless of accent, grammar structure, or speaking style. This upgrade arrives alongside an enhanced Bone-Conduction & Hybrid Algorithm, now offering even cleaner, more accurate voice capture by improving the purity of the user's vocal signal before it reaches the translation pipeline. Together, these advancements make the flagship W4 Interpreter Earbuds the most accurate in company history, surpassing the already industry-leading performance showcased at IFA 2025 that leaves its competition lost in translation. Since, hearing is believing, this innovation along with the full Timekettle portfolio can be experienced throughout CES at the Timekettle booth [LVCC, North Hall — 9163]. A Leap Forward in Machine Understanding: SOTA Translation Engine Selector Different language pairs behave like entirely different systems—English to Korean follows different logic than German to English; Spanish to Chinese requires different segmentation, prediction, and contextual inference than Japanese to French. Timekettle's SOTA Translation Engine Selector resolves this fundamental problem by: Detecting the language pair and context in real time Selecting the specialized AI engine best suited to that specific pair Optimizing accuracy, fluency, and naturalness for each exchange This is equivalent to assigning a "native specialist" to every conversation. This capability is made possible by Timekettle's advanced Large Language Model and the ongoing evolution of its Babel OS platform now updated with new machine-learning layers trained on millions of linguistic samples. The result: translations that sound less like a machine "attempting" to interpret—and more like a system that genuinely understands the intent, tone, and structure of what is being said. To Timekettle users, this means that no matter what languages they speak, Timekettle can always match them with the world's best translation engines to serve their needs, enabling them to enjoy the most accurate cross-language communication experience without fear, awkwardness, or hesitation; to truly express themselves boldly and communicate naturally. Next-Generation Bone-Conduction & Hybrid Algorithm: Superior Voice Capture for Superior Accuracy Building on its proprietary bone-voiceprint sensor technology, the enhanced 2026 algorithm upgrade extracts cleaner vocal vibrations to improve signal purity, isolates noise more effectively in chaotic environments, and more accurately identifies speakers during multi-voice conversations. These improvements work together to deliver far clearer acoustic input—the foundation of any high-precision translation—and ensure that the system captures meaning with exceptional fidelity. Because AI translation quality is only as strong as the audio it receives, this upgrade dramatically elevates performance across business meetings, travel scenarios, classrooms, and multilingual events. Rolling Out Across the Entire Timekettle Portfolio Beginning in early 2026, the SOTA Translation Engine Selector, updated Hybrid Algorithm, and extended Babel OS enhancements will roll out across the full Timekettle product family, including: W4 Interpreter Earbuds: Now the most accurate consumer translation earbuds Timekettle has produced W4 Pro: Elevated for professional meetings and enterprise use T1 AI Translator: The world's fastest offline translator now combines Edge AI with the SOTA Engine Selector to boost accuracy beyond its already industry-leading offline performance and ultra-fast 0.2-second response time. WT2 Edge, M3 Earbuds, and X1 Interpreter Hub: Each gaining improvements in context prediction, segmentation, and tonal translation Shared Capabilities Across the Timekettle Portfolio Across its expanding lineup of earbuds and handheld translators, Timekettle delivers a unified experience built around seamless, natural, real-time communication. All devices support instant translation across 43 languages and 96 accents, covering more than 95% of global regions to enable smooth, uninterrupted conversations anywhere in the world. Users benefit from all-day practicality as well, with long-lasting battery performance designed for travel, business, and extended multilingual interactions. Timekettle's conversation modes are consistent across the portfolio, offering flexible ways to communicate in different settings. One-on-One Mode allows two people to share earbuds for fluid, face-to-face dialogue. Listen & Play Mode records spoken audio through the app and provides translations that can be reviewed or replayed later. Speak Mode enables users to talk into their device and have translated speech broadcast clearly through the phone's speaker, ideal for group discussions, classroom settings, tours, or presentations. Whether using earbuds like the W4 or handheld devices such as the T1, the Timekettle ecosystem is designed to make multilingual communication effortless, intuitive, and adaptable to nearly any scenario. "Accuracy is the result of perfect collaboration between hardware and software," said Leal Tian, Founder & CEO of Timekettle. "With the introduction of our SOTA Translation Engine Selector and the next-generation bone-conduction algorithm, we've elevated that collaboration to a new level. W4 becomes the most accurate interpreter device we've ever created—and this upgrade strengthens every product across our portfolio." Availability The 2026 SOTA Translation Engine Selector upgrade and enhanced Hybrid Algorithm will begin rolling out via over-the-air updates across supported Timekettle devices starting January 2026, with the full portfolio supported throughout Q1. The Timekettle portfolio is available to buy at www.timekettle.co and Amazon. Prices include W4 Interpreter Earbuds ($349), W4 Pro ($449), T1 AI Translator ($299.99), WT2 Edge ($349.99), M3 Earbuds ($149.99), and X1 Interpreter Hub ($699.99). About Timekettle Since 2016, Timekettle has led innovation in AI-driven cross-language communication, with award-winning devices used by travelers, businesses, educators, and multilingual teams worldwide. Its products—including the W4 and W4 Pro Interpreter Earbuds, WT2 Edge/W3 series, X1 Interpreter Hub, and T1 AI Translator—deliver seamless, natural, and secure communication across nearly all global regions.
