Empery Digital Inc. (NASDAQ: EMPD) (the “Company” or “Empery Digital”) has filed an investor presentation with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with its 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”), which is scheduled to be held on October 14, 2026.
The full presentation is available here.
The Company’s Board of Directors said:
“In just over 14 months, our Board and management team have positioned the Company to capitalize on the most compelling value creation opportunity of our time.”
“ATG Capital is no longer pursuing a liquidation of the Company, yet it offers no credible plan and its director nominees have no relevant experience. Neither ATG nor its nominees have ever requested to meet with the Company Board, the management team or any of the Company’s strategic partners. The Board believes replacing Empery Digital’s experienced and highly-qualified directors with known friends of ATG Capital’s principal, Gabriel Gliksberg, will disrupt our progress and advance Mr. Gliksberg’s efforts to use shareholder money to recuperate ATG Capital’s legal fees. Empery Digital shareholders should reject ATG Capital’s nominees and allow the highly aligned Board that developed this strategy to see it through.”
Highlights of the presentation include:
- Empery Digital’s nine nominees combine a complementary set of skills that align with our longer-term strategy and are the right team to continue executing upon a strategic plan that we believe will set Empery Digital up for a future of sustained success.
- The Board and management evaluated a range of options before adopting a well-considered capital allocation strategy focused on AI data center investments, designed to generate near-term cash flow with limited to no incremental capital requirements.
- The Board and management are aligned with shareholders, beneficially owning 21.2% of the Company, and recognize that Empery Digital’s current share price does not adequately value the Company.
- ATG Capital refused to engage with the Company, quickly accumulated shares and only demanded complete control of Empery Digital’s Board.
- After being sanctioned for destroying evidence, ATG Capital retreated from its bid for control and now purports to support the Company’s plans while asking shareholders to replace the critical directors behind that plan, and having the Company reimburse an estimated $9.15 million in expenses, including its litigation fees.
- ATG Capital has offered no credible plan to create shareholder value, and its nominees lack the energy, power, data center and digital asset operating experience and integrity needed to execute Empery Digital’s strategy.
Empery Digital strongly encourages all shareholders to vote “FOR” all 9 of Empery Digital’s director nominees and other proposals on the WHITE proxy card and “WITHHOLD” votes for the ATG Nominees. Shareholders must cast their votes on or before 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on October 13, 2026, to ensure they are counted.
