Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Amber International Holding Limited filed an amended Schedule 13D to reflect a major internal share distribution and changes in its reporting group. On May 29, 2026, Amber Global Limited (AGL) made a pro-rata in-kind distribution of 309,834,748 Class A Ordinary Shares it previously held, as part of a restructuring of its investment holdings.

After this Share Distribution, AGL no longer beneficially owned any Class A shares and, along with Amber Primary Unit Holding Limited, ceased to be a more-than-5% holder, making this an exit filing for both entities. Yuao Wu is now deemed to beneficially own 131,942,913 shares, or 28.1% of the class (including 36,233,237 Class B Ordinary Shares deemed converted). Amber Fort Limited beneficially owns 105,785,503 shares, or 22.5%. Mr. Wu and Amber Fort Limited together held approximately 77.8% of the issuer’s voting power immediately following the Share Distribution, reflecting the high-vote Class B shares. A new Joint Filing Agreement now governs joint Schedule 13D reporting by Mr. Wu and Amber Fort Limited.

Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
Class B Ordinary Shares financial
"Each Class B Ordinary Share is convertible into one Class A Ordinary Share at any time at the option of the holder thereof"
Class B ordinary shares are a type of ownership stake in a company that typically come with different voting rights or privileges compared to other share classes. For investors, they represent a way to hold part of the company’s value and influence its decisions, often with fewer voting rights than Class A shares. Understanding these shares helps investors assess their level of control and potential returns within a company.
