Fundamental Global Inc. to be Renamed FG Nexus Inc. Fundamental Global Co-Founder Joe Moglia to serve as Executive Advisor to the Company Maja Vujinovic, an Early Blockchain Pioneer, to Lead the Digital Asset Business Strategic and financial investors include Galaxy Digital, Kraken, Hivemind Capital, Syncracy Capital, Digital Currency Group (DCG), and Kenetic Charlotte, NC, July 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fundamental Global Inc. (Nasdaq: FGF, FGFPP) (the 'Company' or 'Fundamental Global') today announced the pricing and signing of a private placement for the purchase and sale of 40,000,000 prefunded common stock warrants at a price of $5.00 (inclusive of the $0.001 exercise price) per warrant for expected aggregate gross proceeds of $200 million before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses (funded in a combination of cash and cryptocurrencies) to launch the Company's Ethereum treasury strategy. Fundamental Global offers investors a capital markets vehicle engineered for Ethereum - the foundation of digital finance and settlement layer for the majority of stablecoins, DeFi, and tokenized assets. The Company's structure aims to provide investors with multiple value drivers beyond ETH price appreciation, including staking rewards that support network security and access to tokenized real-world asset opportunities. With industry leaders bridging Wall Street, Decentralized Finance, and backed by world-class financial and digital assets institutions, the Company is uniquely positioned to help support the rapid adoption of Ethereum by the global financial ecosystem, which already has stablecoins leading the way. Strategic and financial investors participating in the private placement include Galaxy Digital (Nasdaq: GLXY), one of the world's leading digital asset investment firms led by CEO Mike Novogratz. Galaxy will also serve as a strategic advisor to Fundamental Global, managing its Ethereum treasury and providing asset management, yield execution, and infrastructure support. Other strategic investors include Kraken, who will work with FG Nexus strategically on treasury management and staking. The private placement saw participation from top tier global financial institutions as well as Hivemind Capital, Syncracy Capital, Digital Currency Group (DCG), and Kenetic. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering to purchase ETH, which will serve as the Company's primary treasury reserve asset. In addition to its Ethereum treasury and staking strategy, the Company is in a unique position to apply its digital expertise in its merchant banking and reinsurance businesses to fuel the adoption of the Ethereum blockchain in real-world finance. As part of the transformation, the Company will rebrand as FG Nexus Inc., with new ticker symbols FGNX and FGNXP expected to go live shortly. The closing of the offering is expected to occur on or about August 1, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Following the closing of the offering FG Nexus's digital asset strategy will be led by a deeply experienced team: Maja Vujinovic , CEO of Digital Assets, is an early pioneer, investor, and operator in cryptocurrencies, blockchain and AI. She helped shape the industry by acquiring the first bank for Tether and in her role as CIO of Emerging Technologies at GE, where she launched one of the first institutional-grade finance transactions on blockchain in 2015. Theodore Rosenthal , President of Digital Assets, is a hedge fund founder and manager of TMR Capital which is focused on value and event-driven equity strategies. TMR Capital is an advisor to over $2 billion in family office capital across equities and crypto and was an early investor in AI and crypto projects such asMaker, Aave, and Hyperliquid. Mr. Rosenthal is a Member of the Value Investors Club and a frequent speaker at MOI Global and other forums. Jose Vargas , Head of Business Development, was a seed investor in one of the largest Digital Assets Treasury companies. Mr. Vargas founded and exited 5 companies, including AutoWeb, BlueKite (PayPal), and BrokersWeb. He is a Co-founder and board member of ($1B+ valuation), Osigu, and PeopleFund as well as a seed investor in crypto ventures such as Akash Network. A Leadership Team Bridging Wall Street, DeFi and Web3 Joe Moglia , former Chairman and CEO of TD Ameritrade, will serve as Executive Advisor to FG Nexus, bringing decades of financial leadership and public markets expertise. Said Moglia, 'Throughout my career, I have seen foundational shifts that fundamentally alter global markets. Ethereum is the foundation layer for the next generation of financial services, and I believe that what we are creating at FG Nexus is the most strategic way for investors to not only gain access to ETH, but also participate in the future of the world's fast evolving financial system.' Kyle Cerminara , CEO and Chairman of the Company, stated, 'This marks a pivotal moment in our evolution. FG Nexus will leverage our deep capabilities in merchant banking, reinsurance, and capital markets to unlock the full potential of Ethereum as a reserve asset. We're honored to welcome Joe Moglia in an advisory capacity and thrilled to have Maja, Jose, and Theodore at the helm of our digital asset strategy. This is the future of capital allocation.' Maja Vujinovic , CEO of the Digital Asset division, added, 'Ethereum isn't just infrastructure, it's personal. As CIO of GE, I helped bring Ethereum inside one of the world's largest companies, working with Joseph Lubin, Ethereum co-founder, to explore smart contracts across a variety of business lines. That conviction hasn't changed At FG Nexus, we're building the institutional-grade rails for Ethereum treasuries, secure, transparent, yield-driven. With today marking Ethereum's 10-year anniversary, I am thrilled to be part of the next chapter in a journey that started a decade ago.' Legacy Asset Trust and Shareholder Alignment In parallel, the Company will form FG CVR Trust , a Delaware Statutory Trust, (the 'FG CVR Trust') to hold legacy non-core assets. Common shareholders of record as of August 8, 2025 will receive a non-transferable Contingent Value Right (CVR) linked to monetization of these legacy positions, ensuring alignment with long-term value creation.

Negative Points Global drilling activity declined by 6% sequentially, with North American exploration and production companies curtailing short-cycle activity. Pricing pressure is intensifying, with international conventional activity easing and Saudi Arabia suspending additional onshore rigs. Tariff-related and inflationary cost pressures compressed segment margins, with tariff expenses expected to rise in the coming quarters. The Energy Products and Services segment experienced a 20% year-over-year decline in product sales due to market uncertainty and reduced global activity. NOV Inc (NYSE:NOV) anticipates a challenging remainder of 2025, with expectations of North American shale activity drifting modestly lower and global drilling activity slowing further. Q & A Highlights Q: Clay, given the recent changes and challenges, how are you thinking about where margins might bottom in the next few quarters, and what could drive them back up? A: Clay Williams, Chairman and CEO, explained that while margins have been pressured by factors like OPEC+ production increases and tariff impacts, NOV is focused on cost reduction initiatives. He is optimistic that these efforts will stabilize margins in the second half of the year and set the stage for recovery in 2026, driven by increased offshore activity and demand for NOV's technologies. Q: What are the key indicators you are watching to signal a market turnaround in the next few quarters? A: Clay Williams noted that while current market conditions are challenging due to commodity price pressures and OPEC's actions, he expects signs of recovery as offshore drillers prepare for increased activity in 2026. He anticipates more inbound calls for equipment projects and spare parts, indicating a market turnaround. Q: Can you provide an update on NOV's cash generation and working capital expectations for the rest of the year? A: Rodney Reed, CFO, highlighted that NOV has achieved strong free cash flow conversion, with working capital as a percentage of revenue improving by 300 basis points year-on-year. For the second half of the year, they expect CapEx to be consistent with last year and working capital as a percentage of sales to be between 27% and 29%, leading to a healthy free cash flow outlook. Q: With the cost reduction steps taken, what size market is NOV preparing for, and what further cost initiatives might be available? A: Clay Williams stated that NOV is preparing for a larger market, driven by international unconventional and deepwater demand. While current market conditions are challenging, NOV is focusing on efficiency improvements and facility consolidations. Jose Bayardo, COO, added that these efforts are part of a long-term strategy to capitalize on market shifts rather than a downsizing due to lower activity expectations. Q: Can you discuss the adoption rate of NOV's automation and digital technologies, particularly in offshore markets? A: Jose Bayardo shared that NOV's automation and digital technologies, such as the NOVOS platform and robotics systems, are seeing strong market traction. The company has sold 220 NOVOS systems, with 134 installed, and has a growing pipeline for robotics systems. Digital product revenue is up 25% year-over-year, indicating robust adoption and future growth potential.
