Amber International announces $50M share buyback after strong Q3

Amber International, a global leading digital wealth management platform and operating under the brand name "Amber Premium", announced its board of directors has authorised a share repurchase programme of up to $50 million of the company's outstanding American Depositary Shares (ADS) over the next 12 months, commencing 1 December 2025.

The announcement follows the company's exceptional third-quarter 2025 performance, which demonstrated strong operational momentum across all business segments with revenue of $16.3 million, gross profit of $11.8 million, and a significant turnaround in operating profitability from continuing operations from -4% in Q2 to +8% in Q3.

"This share repurchase programme reflects our board's unwavering confidence in Amber Premium's market position and growth trajectory," said Michael Wu, chairman and CEO of Amber International Holding Limited. "Our Q3 results validate our strategic focus on institutional and high-net-worth clients, with client assets on our platform surging nearly 70% year-over-year and our cumulative KYC'ed user base expanding over 20%. With execution and payment trading volumes totaled approximately $3.1 billion in Q3 2025, and our operating margin now firmly in positive territory, we believe the market does not fully recognise our business fundamentals or long-term growth potential."

Strong business fundamentals drive capital return initiative

The buyback programme is supported by robust business fundamentals:

Exceptional Growth Metrics: 69.8% year-over-year increase in client assets on platform and 20.4% growth in cumulative KYC'ed institutional and high-net-worth clients, now totaling 5,116.

Revenue Diversification: Wealth management solutions led performance at $7.5 million in Q3, complemented by strong contributions from execution solutions ($3.2 million), marketing and enterprise solutions ($4.4 million), and payment solutions ($1.2 million).

Market Leadership: Serving sophisticated institutional clients across Asia, backed by more than eight years of digital asset expertise.

Strategic Positioning: First Asia-based public company with tokenised shares available on-chain, pioneering institutional adoption of digital assets across Singapore, Hong Kong SAR and Dubai.

"We're executing this programme from a position of operational and financial strength," Wu continued. "Our diversified revenue streams, institutional-grade infrastructure, and proven ability to capture market share in Asia's rapidly growing digital asset ecosystem position us to both return capital to shareholders and continue investing aggressively in our growth initiatives."

Programme details and implementation

The company will fund repurchases through operating cash flow and existing cash balances while maintaining ample liquidity for strategic investments in product innovation, RWA initiatives and AI-powered financial solutions. The timing and amount of repurchases will be determined based on market conditions, share price and regulatory requirements.

The share repurchase programme may be executed through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or other methods in compliance with applicable securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The programme does not obligate the company to acquire any specific number of shares and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time.
