In its interim condensed consolidated statements of profit or loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025, AMTD IDEA Group reports revenue streams from digital solutions and other services, fashion, arts and luxury media advertising and marketing services, hotel operations, hospitality and VIP services, and dividends and gains as well as net fair value changes on financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. These categories illustrate the combination of operating businesses and investment activities within the group.
Media, fashion and cultural platforms
Through its subsidiary The Generation Essentials Group, AMTD IDEA Group is linked to a portfolio of media and cultural assets. TGE is described as focusing on multi‑media, entertainment and cultural affairs worldwide, and as comprising L’Officiel, The Art Newspaper, movie and entertainment projects, and a global portfolio of premium properties.

Press releases attached to AMTD IDEA Group’s SEC filings highlight activities such as fashion shows organized by L’Officiel at major stock exchanges and global cover projects featuring high‑profile artists. These activities illustrate how the group’s media and cultural platforms are used to stage events and campaigns that link fashion, culture and finance.
Hospitality, hotel operations and VIP services
AMTD IDEA Group’s financial disclosures identify hotel operations, hospitality and VIP services as a distinct revenue line. The group reports hotel operations, hospitality and VIP services income in its interim financial statements. Related news and 6‑K filings show that its ecosystem, via TGE, has executed sale and purchase agreements for hotel acquisitions in locations such as New York City, Kuala Lumpur and Perth, with the goal of expanding a portfolio of hotel assets. These transactions are described in press releases that AMTD IDEA Group furnishes to the SEC on Form 6‑K.
The group also reports that growth in hotel operations, hospitality and VIP services income contributed to an increase in profit for the six months ended June 30, 2025, alongside gains and fair value changes on its investment portfolio. This underscores the role of hospitality and related services as a key operating segment within the broader platform.
