Angel Studios amended its pending acquisition of Toothy Cow Productions, shifting 439,127 shares of merger consideration from common unitholders to preferred unitholders and cutting incentive shares by 85%. The company also disclosed it has already funded $12.6 million of TCP operations against an $11.9 million maximum commitment, exceeding the cap. If the deal fails, that funding converts to preferred units at $1.50 plus warrants — a potential dilution and governance concern for ANGX shareholders. The Second Amended and Restated Merger Agreement was entered into on September 17, 2026.
