Escalating Proxy Fight
New social media materials condemn Better's 'false statements and underhanded tactics,' signaling the contest is intensifying rather than resolving.

Ongoing Governance Crisis
This follows the August 2026 CEO departure, a failed initial consent attempt due to administrative error, and a Delaware lawsuit over the poison pill.
Analysis · BETR · Finance
The Garg Group now claims holders of more than 46% of Better Home & Finance voting power have supported its consent solicitation to remove five directors. That is a material escalation from the prior filings, which showed the solicitation had failed on an administrative error and was being re-run. Crossing the 46% threshold puts the board overhaul within striking distance of the majority needed to force change, and the accompanying social media posts accuse the company of 'false statements and underhanded tactics' — language that signals the proxy fight is intensifying rather than settling. For a company already dealing with a departed CEO, Nasdaq non-compliance, and a large UK bank write-down, a successful consent solicitation would replace the board and could redirect strategy entirely.
