This DEFA14A supplements a proxy statement filed earlier today, providing detailed information on the nomination of three new directors. The addition of Rob Solomon (GoFundMe, Groupon), Lisa Gersh (Oxygen Media, GOOP, Hasbro board), and Fadi Hanna (Bloomberg LP CRO, J.P. Morgan) significantly enhances the Board's strategic, operational, and governance expertise. This move, highlighted by management as strengthening the Board for its "next chapter" and focusing on "strong, independent governance," is particularly notable given the concurrent 13D/A filing where Grindr's majority shareholder committed to limit his voting power. The nominations suggest a proactive effort to improve board independence and oversight, which is a positive signal for long-term shareholder value.
