LAS VEGAS, Jan. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ault & Company, Inc. (“Ault & Company”), today announced its abandonment of its planned cash tender offer to purchase up to 111,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), of Hyperscale Data, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Hyperscale Data”), at a price not greater than $10.00 nor less than $7.50 per share of Common Stock, net to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, in order to enable Ault & Company to pursue transactions under the recently executed securities purchase agreement with Hyperscale Data, pursuant to which Ault & Company has the right to purchase up to $25 million in shares of Hyperscale Data’s Series G Convertible Preferred Stock in compliance with the federal securities laws.
Ault & Company continues to believe that the current stock price of the Common Stock is below Hyperdrive Data’s long-term intrinsic value per share and believes that an investment in the Preferred Shares demonstrates the continued commitment of Ault & Company to supporting Hyperscale Data and its stockholders. Ault & Company may consider revisiting a tender offer once the purchase of the Preferred Shares is completed, however there can be no assurance thereof. Any potential future tender offer would be subject to Ault & Company board approval (including an evaluation of the then current market price of the Common Stock), regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions. Details regarding any potential future tender offer, if commenced, would be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and distributed to Hyperscale Data’s stockholders.
The principal business of Ault & Company is investing in securities. Ault & Company, together with its affiliates (including, Milton C. Ault III, Hyperscale Data’s Executive Chairman, William Horne, Hyperscale Data’s Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman and Henry Nisser, Hyperscale Data’s President and General Counsel), beneficially own approximately 91.7% of Hyperscale Data’s outstanding shares of Common Stock, primarily through the ownership of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock.
This press release is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute an offer to buy or sell Common Stock or any other securities.
