MASTERBEEF GROUP

Announces Planned Launch of Premium Thai Tea Beverage and Dessert Franchise in Hong Kong and Macau

Hong Kong, May 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MasterBeef Group (NASDAQ: MB) (the "Company" or "MasterBeef"), a full-service restaurant group in Hong Kong, specializing in Taiwanese hotpot and Taiwanese barbecue, today announced plans to introduce a premium Thai tea beverage and dessert brand from Thailand to the Hong Kong and Macau markets, marking the Company's strategic expansion into the beverages and dessert segment.

The Company has reached a preliminary understanding regarding a proposed franchise arrangement to develop and operate premium Thai tea beverage and dessert outlets. While the definitive franchise agreement is subject to final documentation, MasterBeef has established a clear framework for a regional rollout, with an initial target of three outlets across Hong Kong and Macau within 24 months of finalising the agreement. As at the date of this press release, no definitive franchise agreement has been entered into in respect of this proposed franchise arrangement. Following the establishment of the brand in these core markets, the Company may in the future explore further growth opportunities, including, among others, a right of first refusal to acquire exclusive master franchise rights for the People's Republic of China (PRC) market, aligned with broader regional demand.

The expansion into the beverage and dessert space is designed to complement MasterBeef's core Taiwanese hotpot and barbecue operations. Thai milk tea and desserts are naturally suited to Hong Kong and Macau's snack-driven, all-day dining behaviour, where consumers regularly seek premium drinks and light bites between meals and after dinner. By leveraging the region's vibrant dining landscapes and strong demand for high-quality treats, the Company aims to create cross-promotional opportunities with its existing restaurants, deepen customer engagement, and diversify revenue streams into an attractive, higher-margin category.

This premium Thai tea and dessert brand originated from Thailand, and has established a strong presence across key shopping and lifestyle districts in Bangkok, operating multiple outlets that specialise in Thai tea–led beverages and desserts. Its stores are known for a contemporary café ambience, a focused menu built around signature Thai tea, creative iced tea variations and thoughtfully presented sweet items, all designed to be visually appealing and "occasion-worthy" for both everyday visits and social gatherings.

"We are pleased to take this important step in advancing our franchise expansion into the premium Thai tea beverage and desserts concept to Hong Kong and Macau," said Ka Chun Lam, Chief Executive Officer of MasterBeef. "This initiative is consistent with our strategy of capturing attractive adjacent food and beverage categories through disciplined partnerships. We believe this offering can complement our existing portfolio, reach new customer occasions, and support our long-term growth in the region."

Through its Hong Kong operating subsidiaries, MasterBeef Group is a full-service restaurant group in Hong Kong, specializing in Taiwanese hotpot and Taiwanese barbecue.
