Datavault AI Signs $2.0 Billion Structured Financing Term Sheet with Exclusive Global Tokenization MandateJune 1, 2026 9:38 AM
ACCESS NewswireCounterparty agrees to route its global digital asset tokenization and blockchain infrastructure initiatives exclusively through Datavault AI's patented platform.Financing is anchored by an approximately $2.0 billion portfolio of fixed-income securities contributed by an institutional investment fund and a UK-based regulated structured institutional investment platform.The proposed transaction is expected to value Datavault AI shares at $1.55 to $2.00 per share, subject to definitive agreements and an acceptable independent valuation. PHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESS Newswire / June 1, 2026 / Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, today announced the execution on May 30, 2026 of a non-binding term sheet relating to a potential $2.0 billion dilutive structured financing transaction, pursuant to which the Company may issue shares at a purchase price of $1.55 to $2.00 per common share to an institutional investment fund and a UK-based regulated structured institutional investment platform operating across technology, mining, and real assets (together, the "Counterparty"), in exchange for preferred units in an investment vehicle holding a portfolio of fixed income securities valued at approximately $2.0 billion (the "fixed income vehicle"). The proposed transaction is intended to provide Datavault AI with a structured pathway to access secured financing to support the Company's digital asset exchanges by establishing a collateral base through the Company's acquisition of preferred units in the fixed income vehicle.Strategic ExclusivityPursuant to the provisions of the term sheet, the Counterparty has agreed that all of its digital asset tokenization projects and related blockchain infrastructure initiatives worldwide will be handled exclusively through Datavault AI's patented platform, unless otherwise agreed, establishing a long-term operational partnership alongside the capital commitment.The proposed transaction described herein is based solely on a non-binding term sheet. No definitive agreements have been executed, and there can be no assurance that definitive agreements will be executed or that the proposed transaction will be consummated. The term sheet does not obligate the parties to complete the proposed transaction and may be terminated by either party at any time, except with respect to certain limited provisions that are binding.The proposed financing is structured as an asset-backed transaction rather than a conventional cash placement. The capital base is anchored by an approximately $2.0 billion portfolio of fixed income securities held through the investment vehicle and contributed by an institutional investment fund and a UK-based regulated structured institutional investment platform that operates across technology, mining, and real assets. The Company expects this collateral base, once established, to support a secured borrowing facility dedicated to funding its digital asset exchange initiatives.The transaction is anticipated to be structured across four successive tranches of up to $500 million in value for each tranche, up to $2.0 billion in total, with the initial tranche targeting completion by the third quarter of 2026. It is currently anticipated that, upon the closing of each tranche, the Counterparty would be entitled to nominate one additional director, in replacement of a then-seated director on the Datavault AI board of directors, which is anticipated to remain fixed at nine directors. Upon the closing of the final tranche, the Counterparty would be entitled to nominate an additional director (in addition to its right to nominate one director in connection with the closing of such tranche), also in replacement of a then-seated director. Accordingly, as contemplated by the non-binding term sheet, upon the closing of the final tranche, the Counterparty would gain sufficient voting power to elect a majority of the Datavault AI board of directors.Pursuant to the term sheet, Datavault AI is obligated to fund $25.0 million in administrative, operational, and structuring-related costs and expenses for each tranche, and has a binding obligation to make the first $25.0 million non-refundable payment by wire transfer by June 4, 2026. The source of funds will come from the sale of bitcoin and receivables.The proposed transaction remains subject to negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, completion of due diligence to the satisfaction of the parties, approval by Datavault AI shareholders, regulatory approvals (including applicable antitrust clearance and confirmation that the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States has concluded its review without action by the President of the United States to block or prevent the proposed transaction), and the fulfillment of customary closing conditions, including a charter amendment to increase the number of authorized shares of capital stock of Datavault AI and receipt of a fairness opinion regarding the proposed transaction. There can be no assurance that definitive agreements will be executed or that the proposed transaction will be completed on the terms described herein or at all."This is a major milestone and recognition of Datavault AI's capabilities. We hold the patents, we have the contracts, and the proposed structured financing transaction, if completed, would provide the opportunity to scale at the speed this regulated market demands. The tokenized data economy is not emerging; it is here. Datavault AI is building the compliant token infrastructure that powers it," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI.Datavault AI's position in the tokenization economy rests on more than 100 issued U.S. patents, the foundation that converts capital into defensible market leadership. That portfolio includes the industry-defining Tokenization Patents, foundational blockchain content licensing, DataValue®, DataScore®, and Data Vault Bank™, which are AI agents that deliver patented, AI-validated data scoring, valuation, and monetization. At the core of the Company's exchange technology now sits NYIAX, an institutional-grade exchange built on the architecture and trading infrastructure of a leading global financial technology company serving capital markets, anchored in four jointly owned patents granted from 2020 through 2025 (U.S. Patent Nos. 10,607,291; 11,410,236; 11,861,707; and 12,198,193).The SanQtum quantum-ready distributed GPU edge network is live in New York and Philadelphia, operating on a zero-trust architecture that allows greater bandwidth, reliability, and security at lower cost through local data handling. As reported in the Company's May 15, 2026, first-quarter 2026 business update, first-quarter 2026 revenue increased 443% year over year, and the Company continues to maintain a full-year 2026 revenue target of at least $200 million, representing projected growth of approximately 400% year over year.Use of ProceedsThe proposed structured financing transaction, if completed, would support three operational priorities:Deployment of the SanQtum quantum-ready distributed GPU edge network toward approximately 48,000 GPUs across 100 U.S. cities by year-end 2026.Acceleration of the Information Data Exchange® (IDE), International Elements Exchange (IEE),and NYIAX exchange platforms.Servicing of existing debt obligations ahead of planned exchange launches.The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025 (the "CLARITY Act") cleared the Senate Banking Committee on May 14, 2026, in a 15-9 bipartisan vote and has now passed both Senate committees, awaiting a Senate floor vote before it can proceed to the President. Datavault AI's exchange platforms are already being planned to align positively with this new regulatory environment.A joint April 2025 report by Boston Consulting Group and Ripple projects the tokenized real-world asset market to reach $18.9 trillion by 2033 ($9.4 trillion by 2030) at a compound annual growth rate of 53%, per the Ripple and BCG analysis (April 2025). Datavault AI's Information Data Exchange® (IDE), International Elements Exchange (IEE), and SanQtum platforms are designed as asset-agnostic infrastructure for this market, built to process, secure, and monetize tokenized assets across commodities, real estate, intellectual property, biotech, and government data.Path to MarketQ1-Q2 2026 - Momentum Established443% revenue growth year over year in the first quarter of 2026.SanQtum GPU edge network live in New York and Philadelphia on a zero-trust architecture.$60 million registered direct offering closed, bringing working capital to approximately $140 million.$120 million in non-dilutive funding anticipated from Scilex Holding Company.$800 million in tokenization contracts already signed in 2026.May 30, 2026 - Structured Financing Term SheetTerm sheet executed for the proposed structured financing transaction to support Datavault AI's RWA tokenization strategies.H2 2026 - Platform and Infrastructure at ScaleInitial $500 million tranche anticipated to close by the third quarter of 2026 and to be deployed for IDE, International Elements Exchange (IEE), and the anticipated launch of the NYIAX exchange.SanQtum network targeted to reach 100 U.S. cities, with approximately 48,000 GPUs targeted for deployment.2027 - Full Capital DeploymentAnticipated closings of tranches two, three, and four of the proposed structured financing transaction.Assuming the closing of all tranches and the Company's ability to arrange financing secured by the collateral base established thereby, the Company anticipates that SanQtum, IDE, International Elements Exchange (IEE), and NYIAX would be fully funded and operational.Global exclusivity: the Counterparty's digital asset tokenization projects handled through Datavault AI's platform.2030-2033 - Market LeadershipDatavault AI's patent portfolio of more than 100 issued U.S. patents positions IDE, International Elements Exchange (IEE), SanQtum, and NYIAX as foundational infrastructure across commodities, real estate, intellectual property, biotech, carbon credits, and government data.About Datavault AI Inc.Datavault AI™ (NASDAQ:DVLT) is leading the way in AI-driven data experiences, valuation, and monetization of assets in the Web 3.0 environment.

(“Datavault AI” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset (“RWA”) tokenization technologies, today announced that it has entered into a Mutual Services Agreement and Statement of Work with Perpetuals.com Ltd (NASDAQ:PDC) to list Datavault AI’s RWA token programs on the Perpetuals exchange platform, targeting trading on regulated venues including PM MTF Ltd., an EU-licensed Multilateral Trading Facility regulated by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission. The agreement initially covers the MTB Copper project, with provisions for future expansion to additional commodity programs. This can span gold, copper, geothermal energy infrastructure, U.S. strategic minerals, and European iron-nickel resources – giving investors worldwide the ability to buy and sell tokenized physical commodity assets around the clock for the first time. Three programs carry confirmed combined targeted issuance of more than $328 million. The signed agreement brings daily trading to physical assets that have historically been accessible only to institutional commodity traders, large-scale investors, and those with access to specialized futures markets. For investors who have followed Datavault AI’s expansion through 2026, today’s announcement closes a critical gap. The Company signed more than $800 million in tokenization contracts in the first quarter of 2026 alone, establishing named commodity programs backed by in-ground physical assets on two continents. What those programs have been building toward is a regulated trading venue – a place where token holders can buy and sell their positions at any time, access real liquidity, and participate in physical commodity markets at any scale. The agreement with Perpetuals provides that venue. It is the moment that Datavault AI’s tokenization strategy moves from issuance to market – and from contractual commitments to investable instruments available to a global audience. Each program in the portfolio is backed by actual in-ground physical resources, AI-validated valuations, and structured economic participation rights for token holders. This includes direct equity stakes in the underlying operations, production royalty streams, and gold bullion acquisition rights at a meaningful discount to market. The agreement with Perpetuals completes the offering by providing a regulated trading venue, enabling token holders to buy and sell tokenized commodity assets on established exchanges, beginning with the MTB Copper project. “Datavault AI has built the most financially integrated RWA token portfolio in the market – equity in the miner, physical bullion at a meaningful discount to spot, production royalty streams, and now a signed agreement covering six commodity programs on two continents. That combination of direct asset exposure and 24/7 trading liquidity is what institutional and retail investors have been waiting for. The team at Perpetuals is the pioneer of regulatory-compliant tokenized instruments, and their reputation for putting traders first perfectly aligns with our goals. We are proud to bring our portfolio to Perpetuals’s exchange,” said Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI. “Each project we’ve engaged with is of the highest quality, and the launch later this year in the US that will include our International Elements Exchange™, and under construction 1571® arts & antiquities exchange, Sports Illustrated Exchange™ (SIx), among others in conjunction with the 250th year celebrations in the United States in July.” “Perpetuals’s partnership with Datavault AI marks our entrance into the multi-trillion dollar market of Real World Assets and dovetails perfectly with our strategy of bringing choice, value, and opportunity to our users,” said Matthew Nicoletti, Chief Strategy Officer and Director of Perpetuals. “This expansion into RWA tokenization is a strong follow-up to our recently launched UpsideOnly product, the trading and market prediction platform where users can’t lose.” The Five Datavault AI RWA token programs covered under the signed agreement are: GoldVault™ – Gold that investors can own and trade digitally, with each token backed by premium in-ground and refined gold assets tied to U.S. mining operations. Developed in partnership with Kings Mine Capital. Datavault AI holds a direct equity stake in the producing operation, a warrant for additional equity, and the right to acquire 20,000 ounces of physical bullion at $3,000 per ounce – representing a projected $40 million profit at current gold market valuations. Tokens are priced against the COMEX gold benchmark and issued initially at a discount to spot, with a production royalty stream providing ongoing participation in mine output. The program targets $150 million or more in issuance and is planned for launch in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. Coppercoin™ – Copper resources made investable at any scale, developed in partnership with Coppercore Inc. Each token represents five pounds of in-ground copper priced against the COMEX copper benchmark. The program targets $100 million or more in token issuance and is planned for launch by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2026. MTB Copper – A copper mining tokenization program developed in partnership with MTB Copper Mining Company, enabling digital ownership of copper mining resources through Datavault AI’s RWA token platform. This program is named in the signed Statement of Work as the initial project under the Perpetuals.com Mutual Services Agreement. Triton Geothermal – A $120 million Triton 1 geothermal energy infrastructure tokenization program developed in partnership with Triton, a private company. Geothermal energy assets represent a compelling emerging category for institutional RWA investors, driven by accelerating demand for clean, dispatchable power to support AI data center buildouts and grid modernization across North America and Europe. American Strategic Minerals (ASMI) Digital Asset Program – Exposure to the critical minerals that power the modern economy: antimony, gold, and silver from Arizona mining and refining operations. The $78.2 million program is structured so that Datavault AI earns up to a 20% equity stake through performance milestones funded from project economics. The signed agreement is particularly impactful given the track record of innovation and commitment to trader interests Perpetuals brings to regulated digital asset trading. The Perpetuals founding team built the world’s first regulatory-approved tokenized stocks, enabling platforms including Binance, FTX, and Bittrex to offer 24/7 stock trading for the first time, and delivering Pre-IPO contracts for Coinbase, Airbnb, and Robinhood as early as 2021. The licensed MTF, which uses Perpetuals’s exchange platform, runs on institutional-grade infrastructure hosted at the Equinix FR2 data center in Frankfurt alongside Europe’s leading exchanges, and its proprietary BayesShield AI system – trained on more than 22 billion executed trades – provides real-time risk analysis across every instrument on the platform. The timing reflects where global capital is moving. The active tokenized real-world asset market stands at approximately $19 to $22 billion today – but the growth trajectory is steep. A 2025 joint report by Boston Consulting Group and Ripple projects global demand for tokenized real-world assets reaching $9.4 trillion by 2030 – a more than 400-fold increase from today, representing roughly 10% of global GDP. Ark Invest’s Big Ideas 2026 report projects $11 trillion by the same year, contingent on the development of regulatory clarity and institutional-grade infrastructure. Commodity-backed instruments are among the largest emerging categories within this expansion: physical assets like gold, copper, geothermal energy, and critical minerals carry universal economic relevance, established pricing benchmarks, and clear industrial demand – making them natural candidates for the on-chain economy that institutional and retail investors are building. Each program is issued on Datavault AI’s patented Information Data Exchange® (IDE®), DataScore®, and DataValue® blockchain platform, which handles asset credentialing, AI-driven valuation, and on-chain token issuance. Under the signed agreement, listing on the Perpetuals exchange adds a regulated order book, automated market making, and instant T+0 blockchain settlement – all operating under full MiFID II, MiCA, DORA, and EMIR compliance, 24/7, across the United States, Europe, and Asia. Implementation is expected in phases, beginning with the MTB Copper program as the initial project under the signed Statement of Work. GoldVault™ is targeted for Q3 fiscal 2026, and Coppercoin™ by the end of Q2 fiscal 2026. Triton, American Strategic Minerals, and Bushtrica-Prrenjas programs will proceed under separate Statements of Work on a timeline to be confirmed jointly by both companies.

Tyson Fury, The Gypsy King, Joins Datavault AI as International Spokesperson to Champion Athlete Data MonetizationMay 18, 2026 8:37 AM
ACCESS NewswireForbes' Third Highest-Paid Athlete in the World Brings Global Platform to Datavault AI's Sports Illustrated Exchange and NIL Monetization InitiativePHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESS Newswire / May 18, 2026 / Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset (‘RWA') tokenization technologies, today announced that two-time world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has signed on as International Spokesperson for Datavault AI a deal brokered by Nick Hunter of P11.Ranked No. 3 on Forbes' 2025 list of the world's highest-paid athletes with $146 million in estimated earnings (Forbes 2025), Fury brings global star power, and a uniquely personal understanding of what it means to own, protect, and capitalize on a name, to Datavault AI's mission of empowering individuals and organizations to monetize their data and digital assets. Known worldwide as "The Gypsy King," his appointment immediately precedes the launch of the Sports Illustrated Exchange, Datavault AI's solution designed to address the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) monetization challenges facing athletes, influencers, and rights holders across professional and collegiate sports."We have the utmost respect for Tyson Fury, not only as one of the greatest heavyweight champions of all time, but as a resilient warrior whose strength and authenticity make him the perfect partner for the battles ahead. Raising global awareness for Name, Image, and Likeness monetization, while confronting the critical importance of cyber security in the face of the coming quantum leap, are among the toughest challenges companies encounter today. Tyson Fury is strong enough to confront these head-on alongside Datavault AI's Quantum Secure Data Monetization platform, and his involvement will accelerate awareness of our AI-powered solutions, including the Information Data Exchange® (IDE), which securely attaches real-world assets to immutable metadata for responsible monetization. The Sports Illustrated Exchange will transform how athletes capitalize on their NIL rights, and having Fury as our international face underscores the scale and legitimacy of this initiative," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI.Fury, whose larger-than-life personality and crossover appeal have captivated audiences beyond the ring, stated: "I've spent my career fighting for what's mine inside and outside the ropes. Datavault AI is giving athletes and creators the tools to truly own and profit from their name, image, likeness, and data in the digital age. I'm proud to join the team and help bring the Sports Illustrated Exchange to the world. It's going to be massive," said Tyson Fury, the Former Unified, Ring, and Lineal Heavyweight Champion of the World.About Tyson FuryTyson Fury is a two-time world heavyweight champion and one of the most decorated fighters of his generation, with a professional record of 34 wins (24 by knockout), 2 losses, and 1 draw across 37 professional fights. A two-time Ring magazine Fighter of the Year -- earning the honor in 2015 for his upset of long-reigning champion Wladimir Klitschko and again in 2020 following his dominant rematch victory over Deontay Wilder -- Fury is the only heavyweight to hold The Ring magazine title twice since Muhammad Ali, joining Floyd Patterson and Ali as the three men to achieve that distinction. His 2021 trilogy fight with Wilder was named Fight of the Year by The Ring.Ranked No. 3 among the world's highest-paid athletes in 2025 by Forbes at $146 million in estimated earnings Forbes 2025, Fury is recognized as one of the most commercially powerful athletes on the planet and the highest-earning individual sport athlete in the United Kingdom. He commands a combined social media following of more than 11 million -- 6.9 million on Instagram, 2.2 million on X, and 2.2 million on Facebook -- extending his reach across sports, entertainment, and lifestyle audiences in the United Kingdom, continental Europe, the United States, and beyond.Standing 6'9" with an 85-inch reach, Fury is known globally for his technical range in the ring and his equally powerful story outside it -- a years-long public comeback from mental health challenges, including bipolar disorder, that has made him one of sport's most recognized advocates for mental health awareness. That authenticity, combined with his platform, makes him a natural fit for a company built on the principle that individuals should own and control the value of who they are.Off the canvas, Fury stars in the Netflix series At Home with the Furys. Season 2 debuted on April 12, 2026 -- timed to coincide with Fury's live Netflix return fight against Arslanbek Makhmudov the night before -- and Netflix has already renewed the series for a third season.

Datavault AI Positions Distributed Edge Network Ahead of CLARITY Act Senate VoteMay 11, 2026 10:47 AM
ACCESS NewswireTargeting year-end 2026 completion of quantum-ready edge network deployment across more than 100 major U.S. citiesMini Data Center Strategy to produce $50 billion of 10GW Super Compute and Quantum Readiness upon completion of Available's Project Qestral. PHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESS Newswire / May 11, 2026 / Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, today highlighted the strategic positioning of its nationwide distributed edge computing network ahead of an anticipated U.S. Senate Banking Committee markup and vote on the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (the "CLARITY Act") scheduled for this week.CLARITY Act Vote Brings Regulatory TailwindsSenate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott has confirmed the markup hearing for the CLARITY Act on Thursday, May 14, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. ET. The CLARITY Act is designed to establish the first comprehensive federal framework for digital assets in the United States, drawing clear regulatory boundaries between SEC and CFTC jurisdiction over digital asset markets. The bill passed the full House in July 2025 by a bipartisan vote of 294-134 and is expected to be reconciled with the Senate version if it clears committee. Datavault AI believes that its data infrastructure and edge computing network are well-positioned to serve the expected growth in demand for secure data processing, tokenization, and AI workloads that the Company anticipates regulatory certainty will help unlock across the digital economy.Distributed Edge Network Targets 100+ U.S. Markets by Year-EndIn partnership with Available Infrastructure, Datavault AI is advancing a distributed network of modular mini data centers targeting deployment across more than 100 U.S. metropolitan markets, with full commercial availability of the 48,000-GPU fleet beginning in Q3 2026 and nationwide revenue generation targeted by year-end. The fleet will be distributed across 1,000 urban micro-edge neocloud sites. The equivalent market value of the 48,000-GPU capacity is estimated at $1.44 billion to $1.92 billion based on current Hopper- and Blackwell-class GPU pricing, and the Company estimates serviceable addressable market potential exceeding $100 million per network location annually.Unlike traditional large-scale data centers, the Company's modular mini data center model is designed to deliver improved failover, redundancy, and uptime through geographically distributed nodes - providing lower latency and enhanced security for data monetization, tokenization, and AI workloads."We are in the right place at the right time. As the CLARITY Act moves forward this week to bring much-needed regulatory clarity to digital assets, our distributed edge network is being installed, and we anticipate that it will be ready to deliver practical, resilient, and cyber-secure infrastructure that meets the exploding demand for secure data processing and tokenization. Our mini data center approach gives us superior redundancy and uptime compared to traditional mega data centers, while supporting substantial scale at lower risk," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI."Available is building Datavault AI a sovereign network "vault" covering the 100 highest population cities in the US as a cornerstone of Project Qestral. When Project Qestral is complete, the Datavault AI quantum-ready VPN network will be supported by approximately 10 GW of high-performance compute data centers currently valued at over $50 billion," said Daniel C. Gregory, CEO of Available Infrastructure.Datavault AI remains committed to delivering practical, resilient solutions in data processing and edge computing infrastructure, and thanks its shareholders, partners, and team members for their continued support.About Datavault AIDatavault AI™ (NASDAQ:DVLT) is leading the way in AI-driven data experiences, valuation, and monetization of assets in the Web 3.0 environment.

Datavault AI annonce que son conseil d’administration a demandé à la direction de lui présenter un plan complet en vue de la scission de la division Acoustic Sciences, qui deviendrait une société cotée en bourse indépendanteMay 8, 2026 12:01 PM
Business Wire Le plan initial prévoit que la division Data Sciences concentre ses efforts sur les infrastructures cybersécurisées, en se consacrant à la technologie financière et à la technologie brevetée Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) La direction s’appuiera sur l’acquisition d’API Media, son solide portefeuille de brevets, la technologie ADIO® Inaudible Tones, ainsi que ses partenariats avec WiSA® et Dolby® pour établir des normes mondiales dans le secteur de l’acoustique en matière de transmission sans fil haute définition, de contrôle audio spatial et d’interopérabilité Le plan prévoit la mise en œuvre autonome et renouvelée par API Media de la stratégie relative aux modules logiciels et semi-conducteurs WiSA, avec des efforts de R&D ciblés sur de nouvelles applications robotiques et de drones Datavault AI Inc. (« Datavault AI » ou la « société ») (NASDAQ : DVLT), une société pionnière dans le domaine des licences technologiques qui cherche à redéfinir l’évaluation et la monétisation des données ainsi que les expériences sécurisées du Web 3.0, a annoncé aujourd’hui que la direction de la société avait entamé l’évaluation d’une éventuelle scission de la division Acoustic Sciences de la société, qui comprend ses activités ADIO®, WiSA®, Event Citadel™ et API Media, en une nouvelle société publique autonome, dont le nom proposé serait « API Media ». La société a réservé le symbole boursier « ADIO » pour l’entité issue de la scission proposée et prévoit actuellement que API Media sera cotée au NASDAQ à l’issue de la réalisation des opérations proposées, lesquelles restent soumises à l’approbation du conseil d’administration de la société, à la conclusion d’un accord définitif et au respect des conditions de clôture, ainsi qu’à toute autorisation réglementaire qui pourrait être requise à cet égard. La société a engagé Houlihan Lokey en tant que conseiller financier et Paul Hastings LLP en tant que conseiller juridique dans le cadre de la transaction envisagée. La société a rencontré les banques d’investissement intéressées et désignera son partenaire bancaire après avoir négocié les meilleures conditions pour Datavault AI. La société prévoit que la création proposée d’API Media aboutira à la création d’une entité cotée en bourse dédiée, axée sur les technologies acoustiques et les événements en direct, tout en permettant à Datavault AI de se concentrer davantage sur ses plateformes de monétisation des données basées sur l’IA. Il est actuellement prévu que, si l’opération envisagée était approuvée et menée à bien, les actionnaires de Datavault AI recevraient des actions d’API Media à titre de dividende, ce qui leur conférerait une participation directe à la fois dans Datavault AI et dans API Media, et permettrait de dégager de la valeur supplémentaire grâce au portefeuille croissant de brevets de la division Acoustic Sciences et au développement de nouvelles technologies axées sur l’interopérabilité et les communications dans les grandes entreprises et les marchés à forte croissance. « Nous sommes ravis de libérer tout le potentiel de notre division Acoustic Sciences en explorant une scission potentielle sous la forme d’API Media, une société cotée en bourse autonome qui, selon nos prévisions, prospérera de manière indépendante sur le NASDAQ sous le symbole ADIO », déclare Nathaniel T. Bradley, directeur général de Datavault AI. « Cette scission sous forme de dividende proposée est conçue pour apporter une valeur immédiate à nos actionnaires tout en permettant aux deux entités de poursuivre leurs missions distinctes avec plus de concentration et d’agilité. Nous avons la plus grande confiance en la direction pour faire progresser notre plateforme Acoustic Sciences, qui tire parti du marché en plein essor des événements et des technologies acoustiques de nouvelle génération. Nous sommes heureux d’envisager désormais la société sous l’angle approprié de la maximisation de la valeur pour nos actionnaires. La direction estime que l’accent mis par la division Acoustic Sciences sur la création d’une communication sociale interopérable entre les drones, les robots et leurs opérateurs humains, ainsi que sur l’établissement d’une nouvelle norme en matière de transmission audio et de contrôle audio spatial, constitue une mission méritant une évaluation, une gestion et une gouvernance dédiées. La technologie ADIO, qui permet de créer des publicités privées, sécurisées et non intrusives, ainsi que des publicités expérientielles et Web 3.0, constituera également une formidable source de revenus, comme l’ont prouvé nos récents succès. » Nathaniel T. Bradley poursuit : « Nous pensons que la division Data Sciences et DVLT sont tout à fait exceptionnelles dans la mesure où elles rivalisent avec le NYSE et OKX dans le cadre d’une transaction évaluée à environ 25 milliards de dollars. Nous bénéficions de la liberté d’exploiter des capacités brevetées grâce à une plateforme de trading cybersécurisée et conforme qui, dès son lancement, sera sans égale. L’avantage supplémentaire de notre projet de scission de notre division Acoustic est que cette initiative nous permet de nous concentrer pleinement sur la création de la meilleure plateforme de tokenisation au monde au sein de notre division Data. Nous sommes sincèrement enthousiastes quant à l’avenir de Datavault AI concernant nos deux divisions exceptionnelles. La culture d’excellence d’API Media, sa qualité supérieure axée sur le client et ses méthodes gagnantes perdureront toujours au sein de l’entreprise aujourd’hui et dans les deux sociétés à l’avenir. » Calendrier prévisionnel Le conseil d’administration de Datavault AI a chargé la direction d’entamer le processus de planification en fixant une date d’achèvement prévue qui coïncide avec la clôture de l’exercice 2026. Cet objectif dépend de nombreux facteurs et des autorisations réglementaires délivrées par plusieurs organismes, dont l’obtention pourrait nécessiter un délai plus long. Ces facteurs constituent le point central de la planification et de la mise en œuvre ultérieure par la direction, dans le but de finaliser tous les éléments nécessaires à la transaction au plus tard à la clôture des opérations de 2026 avec nos partenaires. Évaluation Datavault AI a sélectionné Houlihan Lokey comme partenaire et, compte tenu de la longue expérience et de la réputation de ce cabinet dans les domaines des valeurs mobilières et de l’évaluation des marchés publics, la direction estime que la capitalisation boursière actuelle ne reflète pas la valeur intrinsèque de chacune des divisions de la société. La planification de la scission de la division Acoustic repose sur une proposition de valeur, tandis que la division Data en présente une autre. Ces deux divisions nécessitent des licences et une conformité opérationnelle qui rendent la séparation à la fois économique et avantageuse pour chacune d’entre elles. La division Acoustic fournit une technologie audio éprouvée lors d’événements de premier plan : elle a mené à bien la fourniture de technologies, de réseaux et de systèmes audio lors du Kentucky Derby le weekend dernier. L’équipe est désormais sur place pour le déploiement en vue du championnat PGA 2026 à l’Aronimink Golf Club. Ces étapes importantes s’appuient sur le travail déjà établi de la division auprès de grands sites sportifs et de divertissement. Les points clés incluent le déploiement des technologies audio sans fil WiSA®, ADIO® et Sumerian® qui offrent un son clair et haute définition à un large public sans nécessiter de câblage complexe. Cette technologie pratique améliore l’expérience des fans lors d’événements en direct et dans les salles. La division Data franchit des étapes concrètes dans le domaine des solutions de données : elle continue de progresser régulièrement en aidant les organisations à comprendre, protéger et tirer de la valeur de leurs données. Parmi les faits marquants, citons la signature de contrats de tokenisation d’une valeur de 750 millions de dollars au S1 2026, générant environ 77 millions de dollars de commissions associées, contribuant ainsi à l’objectif de chiffre d’affaires de la société pour l’ensemble de l’année 2026, fixé à au moins 200 millions de dollars, et le déploiement d’une infrastructure d’edge computing sécurisée dans les grandes villes. La division soutient également des applications concrètes telles que la vérification des identifiants, le suivi des actifs numériques et les partenariats de données sécurisées dans les secteurs du sport, du divertissement, de la finance et d’autres industries. Ces efforts s’appuient sur des projets menés à bien et des partenariats qui transforment les données en valeur commerciale concrète et en liquidités. À propos de Datavault AI Datavault AI™ (NASDAQ : DVLT) est une société d’intelligence artificielle et d’infrastructure de données basée à Philadelphie qui développe des plateformes informatiques de niveau entreprise pour le traitement de données haute performance, le déploiement de GPU en périphérie et des architectures réseau prêtes pour le quantique.

Datavault AI gibt bekannt, dass der Vorstand die Geschäftsführung um die Vorlage eines vollständigen Plans für die Ausgliederung des Geschäftsbereichs Acoustic Sciences als eigenständiges börsennotiertes Unternehmen gebeten hatMay 8, 2026 12:01 PM
Business Wire Die vorläufige Planung sieht vor, dass sich die Data Sciences Division auf cybersichere Infrastruktur mit Schwerpunkt auf Fintech und dem patentierten Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) konzentriert Das Management wird die Übernahme von API Media, das robuste Patentportfolio sowie die Partnerschaften mit ADIO® Inaudible Tones, WiSA® und Dolby® nutzen, um weltweite Akustik-Industriestandards in den Bereichen hochauflösende drahtlose Übertragung, räumliche Audiosteuerung und Interoperabilität zu etablieren Der Plan umfasst die eigenständige und erneuerte Umsetzung der Strategie von API Media für WiSA-Halbleiter- und Softwaremodule mit Forschungs- und Entwicklungsbemühungen, die auf neue Roboter- und Drohnenanwendungen abzielen Datavault AI Inc. („Datavault AI“ oder das „Unternehmen“) (NASDAQ:DVLT), ein wegweisendes Technologie-Lizenzierungsunternehmen, das die Datenbewertung, Monetarisierung und sichere Web-3.0-Erlebnisse neu definieren will, gab heute bekannt, dass die Unternehmensleitung mit der Prüfung einer möglichen Ausgliederung des Geschäftsbereichs Acoustic Sciences des Unternehmens – der die Geschäftsbereiche ADIO®, WiSA®, Event Citadel™ und API Media umfasst – in ein neues eigenständiges börsennotiertes Unternehmen begonnen hat, das den Namen „API Media“ tragen soll. Das Unternehmen hat das Tickersymbol „ADIO“ für die geplante Ausgliederungsgesellschaft reserviert und beabsichtigt derzeit, dass API Media nach Abschluss der geplanten Transaktionen an der NASDAQ notiert wird. Diese Transaktionen stehen weiterhin unter dem Vorbehalt der Zustimmung durch den Vorstand des Unternehmens, einer endgültigen Vereinbarung und der Erfüllung der Abschlussbedingungen sowie etwaiger damit verbundener behördlicher Genehmigungen. Das Unternehmen hat Houlihan Lokey als Finanzberater und Paul Hastings LLP als Rechtsberater im Zusammenhang mit der geplanten Transaktion beauftragt. Das Unternehmen hat Gespräche mit interessierten Investmentbanken geführt und wird den Bankpartner benennen, nachdem die besten Konditionen für Datavault AI ausgehandelt wurden. Das Unternehmen geht davon aus, dass die geplante Gründung von API Media zur Schaffung einer eigenständigen, börsennotierten Einheit führen wird, die sich auf akustische Technologien und Live-Veranstaltungen konzentriert, während Datavault AI sich stärker auf seine Kernplattformen zur KI-gestützten Datenmonetarisierung konzentrieren kann. Derzeit wird davon ausgegangen, dass die Aktionäre von Datavault AI, sollte die geplante Transaktion genehmigt und abgeschlossen werden, Aktien von API Media als Dividende erhalten würden. Dies würde ihnen eine direkte Beteiligung sowohl an Datavault AI als auch an API Media verschaffen und zusätzlichen Wert aus dem wachsenden Patentportfolio des Geschäftsbereichs Acoustic Sciences sowie dessen Entwicklung neuer Technologien freisetzen, die auf Interoperabilität und Kommunikation in großen Unternehmens- und wachstumsstarken Märkten abzielen. „Wir freuen uns darauf, das volle Potenzial unseres Geschäftsbereichs Acoustic Sciences auszuschöpfen, indem wir eine mögliche Ausgliederung als API Media prüfen – ein eigenständiges börsennotiertes Unternehmen, von dem wir erwarten, dass es unter dem Tickersymbol ADIO an der NASDAQ erfolgreich agieren wird“, sagte Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO von Datavault AI. „Diese geplante Ausgliederung soll unseren Aktionären sofortigen Wert bieten und es beiden Organisationen gleichzeitig ermöglichen, ihre jeweiligen Missionen mit größerer Fokussierung und Agilität zu verfolgen. Wir haben größtes Vertrauen in die Führungsmannschaft, die unsere Acoustic Sciences-Plattform vorantreiben wird, da sie vom boomenden Veranstaltungsmarkt und akustischen Technologien der nächsten Generation profitiert. Wir freuen uns, das Unternehmen nun aus der richtigen Perspektive der Wertmaximierung für unsere Aktionäre zu betrachten. Das Management ist der Ansicht, dass der Fokus der Acoustic Division auf der Schaffung sozialer, interoperabler Kommunikation zwischen Drohnen, Robotern und ihren menschlichen Bedienern sowie auf der Etablierung eines neuen Standards in der Audioübertragung und räumlichen Audiosteuerung eine Mission ist, die eine eigene Bewertung, Führung und Unternehmensführung verdient. Die ADIO-Technologie, die private, sichere, nicht-invasive Werbung, Erlebniswerbung und Web-3.0-Werbung ermöglicht, wird ebenfalls eine enorme Umsatzgenerierungskraft entfalten, wie unsere jüngsten Erfolge belegen," fuhr Bradley fort: „Wir glauben, dass die Data Sciences Division und DVLT insofern etwas ganz Besonderes sind, als sie mit der NYSE und OKX in einer Transaktion im Wert von etwa 25 Milliarden US-Dollar konkurrieren. Wir genießen die Freiheit, auf patentierten Fähigkeiten mit einer cybersicheren und konformen Handelsplattform zu operieren, die bei ihrer Einführung ihresgleichen suchen wird. Ein weiterer Vorteil unserer Planung für die Ausgliederung unserer Acoustic Division besteht darin, dass wir uns durch diesen Schritt voll und ganz darauf konzentrieren können, in unserer Data Division die weltweit beste Tokenisierungsplattform zu schaffen. Wir sind wirklich gespannt darauf, was bei Datavault AI in Bezug auf unsere beiden außergewöhnlichen Geschäftsbereiche als Nächstes kommt. Die Kultur der Exzellenz, die überragende kundenorientierte Qualität und die Erfolgsgeschichte von API Media werden im Unternehmen heute und in beiden Unternehmen in der Zukunft fortbestehen.“ Geplanter Zeitrahmen Der Vorstand von Datavault AI hat die Geschäftsführung angewiesen, den Planungsprozess mit einem angestrebten Abschlussdatum zu beginnen, das mit dem Ende des Geschäftsjahres 2026 zusammenfällt. Dieses Ziel hängt von vielen Faktoren und behördlichen Genehmigungen verschiedener Organisationen ab, deren Erlangung möglicherweise mehr Zeit in Anspruch nimmt. Diese Faktoren stehen im Mittelpunkt der Planung und anschließenden Umsetzung durch das Management, mit dem Ziel, alle notwendigen Komponenten der Transaktion bis zum Abschluss des Geschäftsjahres 2026 gemeinsam mit unseren Partnern abzuschließen. Bewertung Datavault AI hat die Partner Houlihan Lokey ausgewählt, die über langjährige Erfahrung und hohes Ansehen in den Bereichen Wertpapiere und Bewertung auf dem öffentlichen Markt verfügen. Das Management ist der Ansicht, dass die aktuelle Marktkapitalisierung nicht den eigenständigen Wert der einzelnen Unternehmensbereiche widerspiegelt. Die Planung für die Ausgliederung der Akustik-Sparte sieht ein Wertversprechen vor, und die Datensparte präsentiert ein weiteres. Beide erfordern die Einhaltung von Lizenz- und Betriebsvorschriften, was die Trennung sowohl wirtschaftlich als auch vorteilhaft für beide Unternehmensbereiche macht. Akustik-Sparte liefert bewährte Tontechnik bei Top-Veranstaltungen: Die Akustik-Sparte hat am vergangenen Wochenende die Bereitstellung von Technologie, Netzwerk-, Ton- und Audiosystemen beim Kentucky Derby erfolgreich abgeschlossen. Das Team ist nun vor Ort für den Einsatz bei der PGA Championship 2026 im Aronimink Golf Club. Diese Meilensteine bauen auf der etablierten Arbeit des Geschäftsbereichs mit großen Sport- und Unterhaltungsstätten auf. Zu den wichtigsten Highlights gehört der Einsatz der drahtlosen Audiotechnologien WiSA®, ADIO® und Sumerian®, die einem großen Publikum klaren, hochauflösenden Klang ohne komplexe Verkabelung bieten. Diese praktische Technologie verbessert das Erlebnis für Fans bei Live-Veranstaltungen und an Veranstaltungsorten. Der Geschäftsbereich Data erzielt konkrete Meilensteine bei Datenlösungen: Der Geschäftsbereich Data macht weiterhin stetige Fortschritte dabei, Unternehmen dabei zu unterstützen, ihre Daten zu verstehen, zu schützen und daraus Wert zu schöpfen. Zu den wichtigsten Höhepunkten zählen die Unterzeichnung von Tokenisierungsverträgen im Wert von 750 Millionen US-Dollar im ersten Quartal 2026, die rund 77 Millionen US-Dollar an damit verbundenen Gebühren generierten – ein Schritt in Richtung der Umsatzprognose des Unternehmens für das Gesamtjahr 2026 von mindestens 200 Millionen US-Dollar – sowie die Einführung einer sicheren Edge-Computing-Infrastruktur in Großstädten. Der Geschäftsbereich unterstützt zudem praktische Anwendungen wie die Überprüfung von Zugangsdaten, die Nachverfolgung digitaler Vermögenswerte und sichere Datenpartnerschaften in den Bereichen Sport, Unterhaltung, Finanzen und anderen Branchen. Diese Bemühungen werden durch abgeschlossene Projekte und Partnerschaften untermauert, die Daten in praktischen Geschäftswert und Liquidität umwandeln.

Datavault AI Announces Board of Directors Has Requested Management’s Complete Plan for Dividend Spin-Out of Acoustic Sciences Division into Stand-Alone Public CompanyMay 7, 2026 9:07 AM
Business Wire Initial planning calls for Data Sciences Division to focus efforts in cyber secure infrastructure with dedication in fintech and patented Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) Management will harness its API Media acquisition, robust patent portfolio, ADIO® Inaudible Tones, WiSA® and Dolby® partnerships to establish worldwide acoustic industry standards in high-definition wireless transmission, spatial-audio control and interoperability Plan includes API media’s stand-alone and renewed execution of WiSA semiconductor and software modules strategy with an R&D effort targeted to new robotic and drone applications Datavault AI Inc. (“Datavault AI” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:DVLT), a pioneering technology licensing company seeking to redefine data valuation, monetization, and secure Web 3.0 experiences, today announced that Company management has commenced its evaluation of a potential dividend spin-out of the Company’s Acoustic Sciences division which includes its ADIO®, WiSA®, Event Citadel™, and API Media operations into a new stand-alone public company, which is proposed to be named “API Media”. The Company has reserved the ticker symbol “ADIO” for the proposed spin-out entity and currently intends that API Media will be listed on NASDAQ following completion of the proposed transactions, which remain subject to approval by the Company’s board of directors, definitive agreement, and satisfaction of closing conditions, as well as any regulatory approvals that may be required in connection therewith. The Company has engaged Houlihan Lokey as its financial advisor and Paul Hastings LLP as its legal advisor in connection with the proposed transaction. The Company has interviewed interested investment banks and will be naming the banking partner after negotiating the best terms for Datavault AI. The Company expects the proposed creation of API Media to result in the creation of a dedicated, publicly traded entity focused on acoustic technologies and live events, while enabling Datavault AI to sharpen its focus on its core AI-driven data monetization platforms. It is currently anticipated that, if the proposed transaction were to be approved and completed, Datavault AI shareholders would receive shares of API Media as a dividend, providing them with direct ownership in both Datavault AI and API Media, and unlocking additional value from the Acoustic Sciences division’s growing portfolio patents and its development of new technologies targeted at interoperability and communications in large enterprise and high growth markets. “We are excited to unlock the full potential of our Acoustic Sciences division by exploring a potential spin-out as API Media, a stand-alone public company that we anticipate will thrive independently on NASDAQ under the ticker ADIO,” said Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI. “This proposed dividend spin-out is designed to deliver immediate value to our shareholders while allowing both organizations to pursue their distinct missions with greater focus and agility. We have the utmost confidence in leadership to drive our Acoustic Sciences platform forward as it capitalizes on the booming events marketplace and next-generation acoustic technologies. We’re happy to now be looking at the company through the proper viewpoint of maximization of value for our shareholders. Management believes the Acoustic Division’s focus on creating social interoperable communication between drones, robots, and their human handlers along with building a new standard in audio transmission and spatial audio control is a mission worthy of dedicated valuation, management and governance. The ADIO technology creating private, secure non-invasive advertising, experiential and web 3.0 advertising will also be a tremendous revenue generative capability as proven by our recent successes. Bradley went on to say, “We believe, the Data Sciences Division, and DVLT are extremely special in that it rivals NYSE and OKX in a transaction valued at approximately $25 billion. We enjoy the freedom to operate on patented capabilities with a cybersecure and compliant trading platform that will be upon its launch, second to none. The additional advantage of our planning for our spin out of our Acoustic Division is that our solid focus on creating the greatest tokenization platform on the planet in our Data Division is unleashed in this move. We are genuinely excited about what comes next at Datavault AI regarding both our exceptional divisions. API Media’s culture of excellence, superior customer focused quality, and their winning ways will always endure in the company now and in both companies into the future.” Targeted Timeline Datavault AI’s Board of Directors has directed management to begin the planning process with a targeted completion date to coincide with close of its 2026 operations. This target is subject to many factors and regulatory compliance approvals from multiple organizations that may require a longer duration to complete. These factors are the focal point of management’s planning and subsequent execution with aim of concluding all necessary components of the transaction on or before the conclusion of 2026 operations with our partners. Valuation Datavault AI has selected partners Houlihan Lokey and with long tenures and respect in the fields of securities and public market valuation, management believes the current market capitalization doesn’t reflect the independent value of each of the divisions of the company. The planning for the spin-off of the Acoustic Division contemplates a value proposition and the Data Division presents another. Both require licensing and operational compliance that makes the separation both economical and advantageous for both divisions of the company. Acoustic Division Delivers Proven Sound Technology at Top Events: The Acoustic Division has successfully completed technology delivery for technology, network, sound and audio systems at the Kentucky Derby this past weekend. The team is now on site for the deployment at the 2026 PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club. These milestones build on the division’s established work with major sports and entertainment venues. Key highlights include the deployment of WiSA®, ADIO®, and Sumerian® wireless audio technologies that deliver clear, high-definition sound to large audiences without the need for complex wiring. This practical technology improves the experience for fans at live events and venues. Data Division Achieves Tangible Milestones in Data Solutions: The Data Division continues to make steady progress in helping organizations understand, protect, and earn value from their data. Key highlights include signing $750 million in tokenization contracts in Q1 2026, generating approximately $77 million in associated fees — building toward the Company’s full-year 2026 revenue guidance of at least $200 million — and the rollout of secure edge computing infrastructure in major cities. The division also supports real-world applications such as credential verification, digital asset tracking, and secure data partnerships across sports, entertainment, finance, and other industries. These efforts are backed by completed projects and partnerships that turn data into practical business value and liquidity.

Datavault AI and CyberCatch Announce Signing of Binding Letter of Intent for Datavault AI to Acquire CyberCatch to Accelerate AI-Driven, Quantum-Resistant Cyber Risk Mitigation SolutionsMay 1, 2026 8:00 AM
ACCESS NewswireStrategic acquisition is anticipated to position Datavault AI to bring CyberCatch's AI-enabled cyber risk mitigation solution into Datavault AI's SanQtum-secured edge Graphics Processing Unit ecosystem, addressing a global information security market projected to reach $240 billion in 2026 (Gartner)CyberCatch's post-quantum cryptography conversion plan is also expected to position the combined company ahead of the AI-enabled "Q-Day" quantum-attack horizon, now compressed to as early as 2029 (Google)AI-enabled adversary attacks in 2025 rose 89% year-over-year while average eCrime breakout time fell to 29 minutes, a 65% increase in adversary speed compared to 2024, per CrowdStrike's 2026 Global Threat Report, and Google Quantum AI research has now compressed the timeline for cryptographically relevant quantum computing to as early as 2029.PHILADELPHIA, PA AND SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / May 1, 2026 / Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, and CyberCatch Holdings, Inc. ("CyberCatch") (TSXV:CYBE) (OTCQB:CYBHF), a cybersecurity company offering a patented, AI-enabled platform for continuous compliance and cyber risk mitigation, today announced they have entered into a binding letter of intent (the "LOI") under which Datavault AI and CyberCatch will enter into a definitive agreement for Datavault AI to acquire 100% of CyberCatch in an all-stock transaction structured as a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).Under the LOI and subject to a definitive agreement, Datavault AI will acquire 100% of CyberCatch's issued and outstanding common shares (being approximately 26.8 million shares) in exchange for approximately 49.9 million newly issued shares of Datavault AI common stock (the "Datavault AI Shares") at CAD $5.11 per CyberCatch share, which implies an aggregate value to CyberCatch's issued and outstanding common shares of CAD $136,843,820. All issued and outstanding CyberCatch securities convertible into or exercisable for CyberCatch common shares will be exchanged for Datavault AI Shares on a cashless exercise basis at a deemed value of USD $2.00 per Datavault AI Share. Upon closing of the transaction, subject to customary board, stock exchange, and any necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals, it is anticipated that Datavault AI stockholders will hold approximately 92.48% and CyberCatch shareholders approximately 7.52% of the equity of Datavault AI, on a non-fully diluted basis. It is anticipated that CyberCatch will operate as a subsidiary of Datavault AI from San Diego, California, and CyberCatch founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer Sai Huda will serve as President of the subsidiary, reporting to Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI.Strategic RationaleThe combination is positioned at the intersection of two of cybersecurity's largest secular markets. According to Gartner, worldwide end-user spending on information security is projected to reach $240 billion in 2026, and Gartner separately projects the AI-amplified security segment will reach $160 billion by 2029, up from $49 billion in 2025. According to IBM's 2025 Cost of a Data Breach Report, the average U.S. data breach now costs $10.22 million, with a global average of $4.44 million.Regulatory tailwinds are converging with that demand picture. Phase 1 of the U.S. Department of Defense's Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification ("CMMC") program took effect on November 10, 2025, with mandatory third-party C3PAO assessments for Level 2 contracts beginning in November 2026 and full enforcement extending across approximately 220,000 Defense Industrial Base contractors and subcontractors. CyberCatch's platform is purpose-built to address that mandate in defense, HIPAA in healthcare, NIST 800-171 in manufacturing, NIST CSF 2.0 in financial services, among others.The combination is also positioned for the post-quantum security era. Google has set 2029 as its internal deadline to migrate authentication systems to quantum-resistant cryptography. Separately, Google Quantum AI research demonstrated that the elliptic curve cryptography protecting many digital signatures and authentication systems could be broken by a superconducting quantum computer with fewer than 500,000 physical qubits, an order of magnitude lower than previous estimates. CyberCatch is converting its patent-pending, multi-authority, attribute-based encryption with revocation ("MARS-MABE") technology to attain quantum-resistance, and combining MARS-MABE with continuous agentic AI penetration testing creates a next-generation cybersecurity stack applicable across healthcare, defense, manufacturing, financial services, and energy.About CyberCatch's Platform and LeadershipCyberCatch's patented, AI-enabled continuous cybersecurity compliance and risk mitigation solution:Uses generative AI to ensure all legally required controls are in place and calculates a Cyber Hygiene ScoreUses agentic AI to continuously simulate threat-actor tactics, techniques, and procedures to perform penetration tests and calculates a Cyber Breach ScoreDetects gaps for prompt remediation before a threat actor can exploit and be successfulThe platform tests cybersecurity controls continuously from three dimensions, outside-in, inside-out, and social engineering, mapping to NIST CSF 2.0, NIST 800-171, CMMC 2.0, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and other regulated frameworks, replacing once-a-year manual penetration tests with continuous agentic AI penetration testing using specialized skill-set agents.MARS-MABE provides several distinct advantages over current RSA and AES-256 encryption, such as:Access to data is provided only if fine-grained user attributes are metAccess to users can be limited to fine-grained data subsetsInstant revocation of user access to data subsets, eliminating the need to re-encrypt the entire data set and providing speed and significant cost savingsCyberCatch is led by founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer Sai Huda, a globally recognized cybersecurity expert, author of the bestselling Next Level Cybersecurity, co-author of Canada's National Cybersecurity Standard, and inventor of USPTO Patent No. 11,297,094, "Automated and Continuous Cybersecurity Assessment with Measurement and Scoring." He is the former founder and CEO of Compliance Coach, which was acquired by FIS, a FORTUNE 500 company, where he served as GM, Risk, Information Security, and Compliance Solutions.CyberCatch's board and advisory board include:Tom Ridge, former special assistant to U.S. President, first Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and two-term Governor of PennsylvaniaDr. Marv Langston, former Director of Information Systems at U.S. DARPA and Cybersecurity Chief, U.S. NavyScott Tait, former U.S. Navy Commander and National Security Advisor at the Joint Chiefs at the U.S. PentagonCyberCatch's customers span the U.S. defense supply chain, healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, education, and public sectors, and the Company's capabilities were extended through the February 2026 acquisition of multi-authority attribute-based encryption technology, now branded MARS-MABE, and through 2026 reseller and referral partnerships such as with Speridian Technologies and other multiple reseller partners to U.S. government agencies.Added Strategic Benefit: Platform Integration and Cyber Defense Layer Across the Datavault AI StackFollowing closing, CyberCatch's AI-enabled Software-as-a-Service platform is also expected to operate as the cybersecurity and continuous-compliance layer across Datavault AI's existing technology suite, including:DataValue®, DataScore®, and Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) running natively on Available Infrastructure's SanQtum AI quantum-resistant, zero-trust edge platform across 1,000 urban micro-edge neocloud sites planned in 100+ U.S. cities by year-end 2026Acoustic Sciences division technologies (WiSA®, ADIO®, Sumerian®) and IDE® deployments serving sports, entertainment, biotech, education, fintech, real estate, healthcare, and energy customersFederal and regulated-industry customer workloads where continuous compliance attestation against NIST, CMMC, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI DSS frameworks is increasingly a precondition for procurement, audit, and renewalThe proposed acquisition is intended to give Datavault AI customers and partners an integrated path from secure compute through AI-driven data analytics, with continuous attestation at every layer.Management Commentary"Cybersecurity is no longer a separate stack from data and AI - it is the precondition for both. CyberCatch's continuous compliance platform is expected to provide another strategic advantage by adding to DataValue®, DataScore®, and the IDE® a real-time risk and compliance signal at every node of our quantum-secured edge fleet, from federal contractors to enterprise data customers," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI."Datavault AI's quantum-ready edge platform is exactly the next-generation infrastructure our customers and the marketplace in critical sectors such as in defense, healthcare, and financial services need cybersecurity built into. Joining Datavault AI gives them a clear path to a unified secure-data platform with continuous compliance and cyber risk mitigation built in," said Sai Huda, founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of CyberCatch.Transaction OverviewUnder the binding LOI, holders of CyberCatch's common shares will receive newly issued common shares of Datavault AI as described above, with CyberCatch becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Datavault AI. The Datavault AI Shares to be issued are anticipated to be issued in reliance on the exemption from registration under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), provided by Section 3(a)(10), and applicable state securities law exemptions.The transaction is subject to negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement, completion of due diligence, board approvals of both companies, requisite CyberCatch shareholder approval, applicable court approval of the plan of arrangement (British Columbia), and approvals of The Nasdaq Stock Market and the TSX Venture Exchange, as well as other customary closing conditions. The parties have agreed to negotiate a definitive agreement during a 45-day mutual exclusivity period.About Datavault AIDatavault AI™ (NASDAQ:DVLT) is a pioneer in AI-driven data experiences, valuation, and monetization of assets in the Web 3.0 environment.

Datavault AI Further Expands IP Portfolio with New Patent Issuance and Notices of AllowanceApril 22, 2026 10:00 AM
ACCESS NewswireBuilds on December 2025 Content Licensing Patents and Carbon Credit Tokenization Grant; Strengthens IP Moat Across Data Valuation, Virtual Funding, and Tokenized Tax PrepPHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESS Newswire / April 22, 2026 / Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a leader in AI-driven data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, today announced the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 12,596,819 and Notices of Allowance on two additional U.S. patent applications. This milestone builds directly on the Company's December 2025 issuance of two foundational patents for blockchain-driven content licensing and tokenized monetization - further expanding its robust intellectual property portfolio headlined by the industry-defining Carbon Credit Tokenization Patent.Key Highlights for InvestorsOne newly issued patent and two Notices of Allowance extend protection across three high-value platforms: AI-validated data valuation & monetization, tokenized virtual location funding, and automated tax return preparation for digital assets and DeFi-directly addressing 1099-DA compliance challenges.Reinforces the Company's Sumerian® Crypto Anchors, DataValue®, DataScore®, and Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) technologies with quantum-resistant encryption and blockchain immutability, underpinning a growing pipeline of tokenization contracts and licensing deals.Arrives as the first full IRS Form 1099-DA filing season closes amid reported operational hurdles-including late deliveries by Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini-demonstrating clear demand for Datavault AI's automated, tokenized tax solutions.Enabled use cases include tokenized commodities (copper, gold, precious metals), agricultural/genomic/healthcare data assets, NIL digital twins, funded virtual biotech marketplaces, and intelligent tax automation-integrating natively with the Company's edge GPU fleet and HPC infrastructure.Directly supports Datavault AI's 2026 revenue target of at least $200 million, accelerates commercialization across fintech, healthcare, biotech, energy, agriculture, sports & entertainment, and Web3, and opens new licensing and partnership opportunities.Scope of the Latest ProtectionsU.S. Patent No. 12,596,819 - "Method and System for Data Valuation and Secure Commercial Monetization Platform" (issued): Covers an end-to-end permissioned platform spanning opt-in data contribution, AI-driven automated valuation, blockchain-tokenized storage in the Datavault®, and trading on open exchanges with flexible compensation pathways (sales, licenses, rewards, charitable contributions).U.S. Patent Application No. 17/842,220 - "System and Method for Funding a Virtual Location" (Notice of Allowance): Protects the funding, authentication, and tokenized operation of organization-specific virtual locations, including multi-currency donations, integrated event and asset tokenization, portfolio-aligned advertising, and compensation mechanisms for data contributors.U.S. Patent Application No. 17/507,459 - "Platform and Method for Preparing a Tax Return" (Notice of Allowance): Covers automated tax return preparation for clients and employees, with specialized tokenized return handling for digital asset and DeFi activity, back-end form processing, and dynamic adjustment to evolving tax codes-precisely targeting the reconciliation burdens and visibility gaps plaguing the inaugural 1099-DA season.Market Context & TailwindsThe filings position Datavault AI at the convergence of three rapidly expanding markets. Tokenized real-world assets have already surpassed $30 billion in on-chain value (RWA.xyz 2025 data), with Boston Consulting Group and ADDX projecting the global market to exceed $16 trillion by 2030. The global data monetization market is forecast to grow from $7.53 billion in 2024 to $18.8 billion by 2033 (10.7% CAGR, SkyQuest Technology). The new tax-preparation patent arrives precisely as U.S. taxpayers navigate the first full season under the IRS Form 1099-DA digital asset broker reporting regime-where gross proceeds reporting began January 1, 2025, and basis reporting for certain transactions took effect January 1, 2026-amid well-documented industry friction around late broker filings and cross-wallet/chain/DeFi reconciliation.Investor Implications & Strategic OutlookCollectively, the issued patents and allowed applications extend IP coverage around innovations that transform raw data into tokenized, tradable assets and enable transparent funding, monetization, and automated tax handling of virtual environments and digital asset portfolios. These technologies are expected to integrate seamlessly with Datavault AI's anticipated edge GPU fleet and high-performance computing infrastructure, accelerating AI valuation processing and tokenization contract execution."Securing this issued patent and receiving Notices of Allowance on two additional applications validates our leadership in turning intangible data into verifiable, monetizable capital, and in enabling organizations to fund and operate virtual worlds with full transparency and user compensation," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Datavault AI. "These filings deepen our competitive moat and accelerate our path to capturing meaningful share in the data asset, real-world asset, and digital asset tax-preparation markets-directly fueling our $200 million 2026 revenue target and expanding pipeline of tokenization contracts."For additional insight into Datavault AI's growth strategy, commercialization roadmap, and long-term vision for unlocking value from data and intellectual property through tokenization and licensing, investors are encouraged to view the recent Nasdaq interview with CEO Nathaniel Bradley, hosted by Tech Edge and now available at https://vimeo.com/1176174810About Datavault AI Inc.Datavault AI™ (NASDAQ:DVLT) is a pioneer in AI-driven data experiences, valuation, and monetization of assets in the Web 3.0 environment.

Datavault AI Goes Live with First Edge GPU Sites in New York and Philadelphia; $1.44B-$1.92B Quantum-Ready Fleet to Reach 100+ U.S. Cities by End of 2026
April 16, 2026
Built on Available Infrastructure's SanQtum AI quantum-resistant edge platform, the 48,000-GPU fleet targets enterprises facing extended GPU lead times - with DataValue®, DataScore®, and Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) tokenization built in
PHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESS Newswire / April 16, 2026 / The global AI compute shortage has forced enterprises outside the hyperscaler customer set to wait extended periods for high-performance GPU capacity. Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, today announced that the first sites of its new quantum-ready high-performance computing ("HPC") GPU network are now live in New York and Philadelphia, with commercial availability of the full 48,000-GPU fleet beginning in Q3 2026.
The fleet will be distributed across 1,000 urban micro-edge neocloud sites in more than 100 U.S. cities by the end of 2026. Each site supports up to 48 GPUs configured for low-latency AI inference and HPC workloads. Equivalent market value of the dedicated 48,000-GPU capacity is estimated at $1.44 billion to $1.92 billion based on current Hopper- and Blackwell-class pricing.¹
The network is built outside the hyperscaler supply chain, which has absorbed the majority of current Hopper- and Blackwell-class GPU capacity and left many enterprises facing extended lead times and limited on-demand availability from major cloud providers.² Available Infrastructure's SanQtum AI platform provides cyber-secure, zero-trust, quantum-resistant architecture with post-quantum cryptography, which Available Infrastructure describes as "AI-powered, quantum-ready edge computing." Datavault AI's DataValue®, DataScore®, and Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) platform runs directly on the SanQtum-secured GPU infrastructure, powering real-time data tokenization, monetization, and edge AI workloads at scale.
"The GPU supply crisis has created a two-tier market - hyperscalers with capacity and enterprises waiting in a year-long queue. Our quantum-ready fleet, built on SanQtum AI's cyber-secure edge architecture, gives enterprises a path to secure AI compute, data scoring, and tokenized monetization without waiting for hyperscaler allocations," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, Founder & CEO, Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ:DVLT).
Approximately 30 additional city activations are targeted by early July 2026, with full commercial availability of the 48,000-GPU fleet beginning Q3 2026 and the nationwide network scheduled to be revenue-generating by the end of 2026. The air-cooled, lower-power design is engineered to bypass the power-grid and coolant constraints that have limited hyperscale expansion, positioning the fleet as an alternative source of secure enterprise AI compute capacity in a market in which a small number of hyperscale cloud providers have absorbed the majority of current Hopper- and Blackwell-class capacity.
IDE® Yield Management and Branded Data Assets
The Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) will incorporate AI-powered yield management and branded data asset scoring, with data assets valued for quality, completeness, and quantum encryption. IDE®, DataValue®, and DataScore® will run natively on the SanQtum-secured fleet, enabling Datavault AI's real-time data tokenization and monetization capabilities to operate at the network edge rather than in centralized cloud regions.

² Hyperscaler reservation activity has consumed the majority of NVIDIA's near-term Hopper- and Blackwell-class allocation, leaving on-demand H100 availability on major cloud platforms "genuinely unreliable" for teams without pre-existing reserved capacity. Combined 2026 hyperscaler capital expenditures are projected at approximately $660-690 billion, driving sustained pressure on GPU, memory, and data-center supply chains.

The air-cooled, lower-power design is engineered to bypass the power-grid and coolant constraints that have limited hyperscale expansion, positioning the fleet as an alternative source of secure enterprise AI compute capacity in a market in which a small number of hyperscale cloud providers have absorbed the majority of current Hopper- and Blackwell-class capacity.IDE® Yield Management and Branded Data AssetsThe Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) will incorporate AI-powered yield management and branded data asset scoring, with data assets valued for quality, completeness, and quantum encryption. IDE®, DataValue®, and DataScore® will run natively on the SanQtum-secured fleet, enabling Datavault AI's real-time data tokenization and monetization capabilities to operate at the network edge rather than in centralized cloud regions.Sources¹ Current NVIDIA H100 80GB PCIe and SXM pricing ranges from approximately $25,000 to $40,000 per GPU, and full HGX H100 8-GPU systems routinely exceed $350,000, according to published 2026 pricing analyses. At a blended $30,000 to $40,000 per-GPU range, a 48,000-GPU fleet corresponds to an equivalent market value of $1.44 billion to $1.92 billion.

Datavault Ai Charts Bold Path After First GAAP Profit
April 7, 2026
Datavault Ai Inc. ((DVLT)) has held its Q4 earnings call. Read on for the main highlights of the call.
Datavault Ai Inc. struck an upbeat tone on its latest earnings call, as management celebrated the company’s first GAAP-profitable quarter and robust adjusted EBITDA above $8 million. Executives highlighted a fortified balance sheet, accretive acquisitions, and high-profile partnerships, while acknowledging that growth still hinges on regulatory approvals and flawless execution across a complex ecosystem.
First GAAP Profitability and EBITDA Momentum
Datavault Ai reported its first-ever GAAP-profitable quarter, a pivotal milestone for a company still in high-growth mode. Adjusted EBITDA exceeded $8 million, signaling improved operating leverage and suggesting that the business model can scale without burning excessive cash.
Balance Sheet De-Risked With Ample Liquidity
Management said they have substantially eliminated debt through strategic financing actions, leaving the company with more than $115 million in working capital. This stronger liquidity position gives Datavault Ai a longer runway to fund product launches, integrations, and expansion without immediate pressure to raise capital.
2026 Revenue Target Sets High Bar
The company reiterated full-year 2026 revenue guidance of $200 million, with management expecting sequential growth each quarter and a heavy weighting toward the second half. That outlook sets an ambitious growth trajectory, putting a spotlight on execution as Datavault Ai ramps its exchanges and monetization engines.
Acquisitions Feed Event Citadel Platform
Datavault Ai completed the acquisitions of CompuSystems Inc. and API Media, which are being folded into a unified event platform called Event Citadel. The goal is to integrate event data capture, audience engagement, and monetization into a single stack that can generate sticky, recurring revenue streams.
Leveraging NYIAX Access to Exchange Infrastructure
The company secured a NYIAX license and related transaction that provides access to the NASDAQ financial framework and exchange technology. Management framed this as a way to plug into proven infrastructure and brand equity, positioning Datavault Ai to accelerate development of its exchange-based products.
Patented Tech Underpins Tokenization Strategy
Executives underscored a proprietary technology stack that includes CLEAR-powered know-your-customer tools, data scoring and indexing engines, and Sumerian crypto-anchors. This patented setup is designed to support end-to-end data scoring, tokenization, and monetization across multiple genre-specific exchanges and licensing models.
Strategic Partners Bolster Compliance and Rails
Partnerships with IBM, Fiserv, and Houlihan Lokey were highlighted as core pillars of the platform’s infrastructure. IBM supports orchestration and AI alignment, Fiserv provides fiat-to-token transaction rails, and Houlihan Lokey serves as a smart contract auditor to reinforce regulatory and compliance credibility.
Riding a Growing Market for Tokenization
Management pointed to a rapidly expanding market for blockchain, Web3, and real-world asset tokenization, citing projected annual adoption growth above 25%. Datavault Ai aims to capture this wave through multiple vertical exchanges, including those focused on sports, elements, and political markets.
Acoustic Division as Event and Audio Edge
The Acoustic division, which includes WiSA, API, and Event Citadel, was presented as a unique differentiator that blends high-quality audio with event data capture. By enabling semiconductor manufacturing capabilities and lower-latency high-definition audio, the unit opens both direct product sales and downstream licensing and event-based recurring revenue.
Visibility Hurdle From Limited Historical Detail
While the company leaned heavily on its 2026 guidance and sequential growth narrative, it offered little granular historical revenue or margin detail for the near term. That lack of transparency makes it harder for investors to gauge the path from today’s base to the ambitious 2026 targets.
Regulatory Timing as a Key Wildcard
Management stressed that its exchanges will not go live until regulators give explicit approval, tying revenue timing to external decision-makers. This creates potential delays in monetization, even if the technology and partnerships are ready, and adds a layer of uncertainty to the growth ramp.
Integration and Execution Risks From Deal Spree
Recent moves, including the integration of CSI, API Media, and the NYIAX-related assets, significantly broaden Datavault Ai’s capabilities. However, management acknowledged that knitting together disparate technologies, cultures, and operations introduces integration risk and could complicate scaling.
Complex Web of Partners and Compliance Layers
The business model relies on a dense network of partners and a layered compliance stack, spanning technology, payments, and auditing. While this ecosystem can accelerate go-to-market and enhance trust, it also raises the risk of operational bottlenecks if any link in the chain slows or fails.
Ambitious Roadmap Raises Bar for Delivery
Beyond exchanges and events, management outlined initiatives in cybersecurity, international expansion, and semiconductor-related manufacturing. The breadth of this roadmap promises multiple growth vectors but also heightens the risk of resource stretch and slower-than-hoped commercialization.
Guidance and Market Backdrop Point to Aggressive Growth
Looking ahead, Datavault Ai reaffirmed its 2026 revenue target of $200 million, with most of that expected in the back half of the year and underpinned by sequential quarterly gains. Management referenced its new profitability, strong working capital, and robust market adoption metrics in blockchain and tokenization as key supports for this outlook.
Datavault Ai’s earnings call painted a picture of a company at an inflection point, pairing its first GAAP profit and a cleaner balance sheet with an aggressive, partner-heavy growth plan. Investors now must weigh the sizable upside from exchanges, tokenization, and events against the very real regulatory, integration, and execution hurdles that still stand between vision and realized revenue.
