Allied Gaming & Entertainment Urges Stockholders to Take Caution Against Misleading and Factually Incorrect Statements Issued by Knighted Pastures Regarding ISS Report
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Allied Gaming & Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: AGAE) (the 'Company', 'AGAE' or 'Allied'), a global experiential entertainment company, announced today that a leading independent proxy advisory firm, Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. ('ISS'), has recommended withhold votes on five of the six director candidates that Knighted Pastures, LLC ('Knighted' or the 'dissident') has proposed at AGAE's upcoming combined 2024/2025 Annual Meeting on August 4, 2025. The Company also urges stockholders to take caution against relying on statements made by Knighted in its press release on the ISS recommendation. Of particular note, Knighted's claim that ISS recommended stockholders to vote for the election of Knighted's Class B director candidates to the Company's Board of Directors is factually incorrect. In fact, ISS recommended that stockholders vote for just one of Knighted's candidates, Roy Choi. Allied has previously offered Roy Choi a Board seat in an attempt to settle the proxy contest and related litigation but Mr. Choi has refused this offer. In addition, ISS recommended stockholders vote against Knighted's proposal to remove Mr. Yangyang Li, AGAE's Chairman of the Board, CEO and President, from the Company's Board of Directors. ISS also recommended stockholders support AGAE's candidate Roy Anderson. Additional findings from the ISS report that AGAE stockholders should consider include: (1) 'The dissident has presented a case for only limited change. ' '[S]upport for class B dissident nominee Choi is warranted. Shareholders should withhold votes from all other dissident nominees...' 'Over all periods of measurement through the unaffected date, AGAE's TSR outperformed the median of its peers …' 'TSR over the one-year period is positive …' '[T]he company's cash balances remain healthy …' The Allied Gaming Board of Directors has been and remains committed to acting in the best interests of all stockholders and unanimously recommends that stockholders vote "FOR" all six of AGAE's director nominees standing for election – Jingsheng (Jason) Lu, Guanzhou (Jerry) Qin, Mao Sun, Roy Anderson, Yushi Guo and Chi Zhao – on the WHITE proxy card today.

Institutions own 43% of NewtekOne, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEWT) shares but individual investors control 51% of the company
Key Insights The considerable ownership by individual investors in NewtekOne indicates that they collectively have a greater say in management and business strategy 37% of the business is held by the top 25 shareholders Recent purchases by insiders We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. Every investor in NewtekOne, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEWT) should be aware of the most powerful shareholder groups. The group holding the most number of shares in the company, around 51% to be precise, is individual investors. Put another way, the group faces the maximum upside potential (or downside risk). And institutions on the other hand have a 43% ownership in the company. Institutions often own shares in more established companies, while it's not unusual to see insiders own a fair bit of smaller companies. Let's delve deeper into each type of owner of NewtekOne, beginning with the chart below. See our latest analysis for NewtekOne What Does The Institutional Ownership Tell Us About NewtekOne? Institutional investors commonly compare their own returns to the returns of a commonly followed index. So they generally do consider buying larger companies that are included in the relevant benchmark index. We can see that NewtekOne does have institutional investors; and they hold a good portion of the company's stock. This can indicate that the company has a certain degree of credibility in the investment community. However, it is best to be wary of relying on the supposed validation that comes with institutional investors. They too, get it wrong sometimes. It is not uncommon to see a big share price drop if two large institutional investors try to sell out of a stock at the same time. So it is worth checking the past earnings trajectory of NewtekOne, (below). Of course, keep in mind that there are other factors to consider, too. We note that hedge funds don't have a meaningful investment in NewtekOne. The company's largest shareholder is BlackRock, Inc., with ownership of 8.1%. Meanwhile, the second and third largest shareholders, hold 5.4% and 4.6%, of the shares outstanding, respectively. Barry Sloane, who is the third-largest shareholder, also happens to hold the title of Chairman of the Board. Our studies suggest that the top 25 shareholders collectively control less than half of the company's shares, meaning that the company's shares are widely disseminated and there is no dominant shareholder. While it makes sense to study institutional ownership data for a company, it also makes sense to study analyst sentiments to know which way the wind is blowing. There are plenty of analysts covering the stock, so it might be worth seeing what they are forecasting, too. Insider Ownership Of NewtekOne The definition of company insiders can be subjective and does vary between jurisdictions. Our data reflects individual insiders, capturing board members at the very least. The company management answer to the board and the latter should represent the interests of shareholders. Notably, sometimes top-level managers are on the board themselves. Insider ownership is positive when it signals leadership are thinking like the true owners of the company. However, high insider ownership can also give immense power to a small group within the company. This can be negative in some circumstances. Shareholders would probably be interested to learn that insiders own shares in NewtekOne, Inc.. As individuals, the insiders collectively own US$19m worth of the US$308m company. Some would say this shows alignment of interests between shareholders and the board. But it might be worth checking if those insiders have been selling. General Public Ownership The general public -- including retail investors -- own 51% of NewtekOne. This size of ownership gives investors from the general public some collective power. They can and probably do influence decisions on executive compensation, dividend policies and proposed business acquisitions. Next Steps: I find it very interesting to look at who exactly owns a company. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. For instance, we've identified 3 warning signs for NewtekOne (2 are potentially serious) that you should be aware of. But ultimately it is the future, not the past, that will determine how well the owners of this business will do. Therefore we think it advisable to take a look at this free report showing whether analysts are predicting a brighter future.
