Company overview
AMTD Digital was founded in 2019 by Calvin Choi, a former UBS investment banker.[1] The firm is owned by AMTD Idea which holds 88.7% of its shares and is ultimately owned by the AMTD Group, a financial services group.[1][2] Choi is also the chairman of the AMTD Group.[3] Currently, Choi is appealing a decision from the Securities and Futures Commission regarding a two-year ban from the securities industry due to activities he performed back when he was a dealmaker at UBS.[9]
AMTD Digital provides digital services to clients mainly from the financial sector using its software platform, AMTD SpiderNet.[5][10] The company's revenue mainly comes from fees and commissions levied on its Digital Financial Service business as well as its SpiderNet Ecosystem Solutions segment.[5][10]
On 15 July 2022, the firm held an IPO on the New York Stock Exchange with a price of $7.80 and ticker symbol "HKD".[2]
In August 2023, it was announced that the company would move its headquarters to Paris, France they also announced the creation of AMTD World Media and Entertainment Group (AMTD WME).[11]
August 2022 stock surge
The price of AMTD Digital for its listing on 15 July was $7.80 per share and by 2 August, the price had peaked at $1,679, which was an increase of 21,000% since listing.[6] The causes of the stock surge remains unknown.[2] One suggestion was that its ticker symbol of HKD on the NY exchange led traders to confuse it with the Hong Kong dollar.[12] It was reported that r/wallstreetbets, a subreddit of the website Reddit, were involved, although this was denied by the users themselves.[2][8] The phenomenon has drawn comparisons to the GameStop short squeeze and the AMC Theatres stock surge.[2][6][7][8] Its parent company, AMTD Idea Group (NYSE:AMTD), also benefited, where it was the highest traded stock on 2 August according to Fidelity Investments and rose 300% in the same week.[6][8]
Since 2 August, the stock price of the firm has dropped significantly from its peak.[13] The losses were greater than the entire market value of companies such as Intel or Goldman Sachs.[14] As of the end of the trading day on 16 August, the stock was valued at $181.02 per share.
Li Ka-shing's CK Hutchison Holdings, which owned shares in the firm's ultimate parent, AMTD Group, made a statement to distance itself from AMTD Digital, stating it held no shares in the firm.[15]
