Ault & Company, Inc. Announces Its Intention to Commence a Dutch Tender Offer to Acquire Approximately 111,000 Shares of Common Stock (Representing 10% of the Outstanding Common Stock) of Hyperscale Data, Inc.
06 December 2024 - 10:30PM
Ault & Company, Inc. (“
Ault & Company” or
the “
Purchaser”), today announced that it intends
to initiate a 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
(the “
Company”), 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 (the “
Offer”). The exact price will be
determined through a modified Dutch auction described in the
offering materials to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “
SEC”) upon commencement of the
Offer.
The Purchaser intends to make this Offer because
it believes the Company’s current stock price is below the
Company’s long-term intrinsic value per share. The price of $10.00
and $7.50 per share of Common Stock represent approximately 100%
and 50% increases, respectively, over the last reported sales price
of the Common Stock of $4.98 on December 5, 2024 (the
“Closing Price”), on the NYSE American.
The principal business of Ault & Company is
investing in securities. Ault & Company, together with its
affiliates (including, Milton C. Ault III, the Company’s Executive
Chairman, William Horne, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and
Vice Chairman, Henry Nisser, the Company’s President, General
Counsel and Director and Ken Cragun, the Company’s Chief Financial
Officer), beneficially own approximately 85.7% of the Company’s
outstanding shares of Common Stock, primarily through the ownership
of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase
Common Stock.
The Offer is expected to commence in late
December 2024 or early January 2025 and is subject to Ault &
Company board approval, regulatory approval and other customary
closing conditions. Details regarding the offer and instructions
for stockholders interested in participating will be provided in
the Offer to Purchase and related documents, which will be filed
with the SEC and distributed to the Company stockholders.
The Offer will not be made to any person in any
jurisdiction in which either the Offer, or solicitation or sale
thereof, is unlawful. This press release is for informational
purposes only and shall not constitute an offer to buy or sell
Common Stock or any other securities. Any solicitation of offers to
buy the Common Stock will only be made pursuant to an Offer to
Purchase and related materials to be sent to the Company
stockholders on the commencement of the proposed Offer. Company
stockholders should read such materials carefully when they become
available because they will contain important information,
including the terms and conditions of the Offer. The Offer
documents will be available without charge at the SEC’s website at
http://www.sec.gov and will be delivered without charge to all
stockholders of the Company who so request it.
