Escalating Proxy Battle with ATG Capital

Analysis · EMPD · Crypto Assets
Empery Digital has filed its own definitive additional proxy materials in the escalating battle with activist ATG Capital. The company is urging shareholders to vote FOR its nine board nominees and WITHHOLD on ATG's slate, framing the contest as a choice between its 'expected high cash flow AI infrastructure strategy' and ATG's attempt to replace the directors behind that plan. This comes just days after a Delaware court ruled the board breached fiduciary duties in rejecting ATG's nominations, and one day after ATG filed an investor presentation highlighting that ruling. The company's response signals it is not backing down and is actively campaigning to retain control ahead of the October 14 Annual Meeting.
