KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, April 06, 2026 -- Treasure Global Inc. (NASDAQ: TGL) (“Treasure Global” or the “Company”), a Southeast Asia–anchored technology company, today announced the return of Sam Teo as Acting Chief Executive Officer (CEO), effective April 1, 2026. Sam Teo, who previously served as CEO, brings proven leadership to steer the Company’s continued growth and operational execution.

Carlson Thow will step down as Chief Executive Officer and continue as Executive Director, focusing on corporate governance and long-term strategic initiatives to support the Company’s continued growth.

As the former CEO of Treasure Global, Sam Teo brings substantial institutional knowledge, a history of effective leadership, and a strong record of scaling the Company’s digital ecosystem. His return underscores the Board’s confidence in his ability to drive execution, reinforce operational discipline, and accelerate monetization and expansion across fintech, digital commerce, and emerging technology verticals.

Sam Teo’s return comes at a pivotal time as Treasure Global accelerates execution across its multi-vertical digital ecosystem. Building on strong recent momentum, the Company has achieved a 7x quarter-over-quarter increase in ARPU and over 70% high-frequency user engagement on its ZCITY platform, underscoring improving monetization and platform scalability. The Company is now entering a new phase of scalable growth, with the returning Acting CEO well-positioned to accelerate monetization across its ZCITY platform, OXI wallet, and emerging technology verticals.

Under his leadership, the Company is focused on scaling key growth pillars, including the strategic redevelopment of TAZTE to enhance long-term infrastructure and analytics capabilities, and the accelerated rollout of its OXI wallet, which has secured its first corporate client and is targeting significant user and revenue expansion.

In parallel, Treasure Global is expanding into high-growth sectors such as electric mobility and advanced technologies through strategic partnerships, positioning the Company to access global markets and unlock new revenue streams. Sam Teo’s substantial institutional knowledge and execution track record are expected to be instrumental in scaling these initiatives and driving long-term shareholder value.

“Sam Teo’s return as Chief Executive Officer marks a significant milestone for Treasure Global,” said Carlson Thow. “His vision and experience will further position the Company for accelerated growth and long-term value creation. I look forward to supporting the Company’s strategic priorities in my role as Executive Director.”

“I am honored to rejoin Treasure Global as Chief Executive Officer at this pivotal juncture,” said Sam Teo. “With a robust foundation and a talented team, we are poised to scale operations, drive innovation, and seize new opportunities for growth. Our priority now is to translate strong user engagement into scalable monetization while expanding into new high-growth verticals. I look forward to collaborating with Carlson and the Board to achieve sustainable results and deliver enduring value.”

Sam Teo currently serves as Executive Director of Treasure Global and brings extensive leadership experience across fintech, e-commerce, and high-growth technology ventures, with a strong track record in scaling digital platforms and driving growth. His previous leadership roles include Chief Executive Officer of Treasure Global, Director of Business Development at ZCITY, and Managing Director of Modes Cube Sdn Bhd.

VIPKevin Warsh Sworn in as Fed Chair, Putting Broad Pressure on Crypto Assets

1. Following Kevin Warsh's appointment as Fed chair, the Fed has shifted back toward a more conservative policy stance. His hawkish position — that rates should not be cut before inflation returns to target — has significantly pushed back market expectations for easing. Holding rates steady throughout the year has now become the market's base-case scenario, while tail risks of further hikes are also beginning to be priced in. Expectations for global liquidity are tightening, although total stablecoin market capitalization in crypto continues to reach new all-time highs, with USDGO emerging as one of the fastest-growing stablecoins. 2. 10-year sovereign bond yields across major developed economies surged sharply this week: Japan climbed above 2.75% to multi-decade highs, the U.S. reached 4.57%, the UK touched 4.92%, and Germany rose to 3.14%. Yield volatility reached 3–4 sigma levels during the week, marking one of the most extreme moves since the 2022 UK pension crisis. Risk-off sentiment strengthened significantly, with capital rotating away from risk assets and into defensive assets. 3. BTC declined 1.96% this week, but the OBV volume-price divergence strategy delivered the strongest performance with +4.46% alpha. The strategy focuses on price-volume divergence signals: when price makes a new range low but OBV does not confirm with a new low, it treats this as a sign that selling momentum is fading and executes a contrarian buy on the 5-minute timeframe. Assets to watch: BTC, ONDO, HYPE, NEAR, PDD (earnings on May 27), MRVL, CRM, DELL.
