NEW YORK, May 14, 2026 – Creatd, Inc. (OTCQB: CRTD) today announced two corporate updates related to its broader reorganization and planned uplisting strategy. First, both the Company’s Board of Directors and the requisite shareholders of Vocal, Inc. have approved a targeted equity realignment and repurchase initiative, designed to restore Creatd’s majority ownership of Vocal. Second, the Company announced updated dates for its upcoming annual shareholder meeting and related record date.
The approved Vocal transactions are intended to increase Creatd’s ownership position in Vocal from approximately 20% to 51% on a post-transaction basis. The initiative follows Creatd’s completed sale of Fly Flyte, Inc. and represents the next step in the Company’s broader corporate reorganization, SEC re-registration process, and planned uplisting to a national exchange. The transaction includes the repurchase of certain Vocal common shares and Series A Preferred equity interests from current and former stakeholders at a valuation based on Vocal’s previously established independent 409A valuation.
“We believe establishing majority ownership of Vocal is an important strategic step for Creatd as we continue advancing our uplisting objectives and broader restructuring initiatives,” said Jeremy Frommer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Creatd. “Vocal has always been foundational to the Company. Increasing our ownership from approximately 20% to 51% better reflects Vocal’s role in our operating structure, our capital markets strategy, and the value we believe can be created for shareholders.”
Vocal remains a creator-focused platform built to support digital publishing, storytelling, audience development, and creator monetization. The platform reaches approximately 30 million monthly unique visitors and supports nearly 10,000 premium creators. Vocal is also within several months of the planned launch of Vocal 3.0, the next major evolution of the platform, which is being developed around AI-enabled infrastructure, enhanced creator tools, improved content distribution, and expanded monetization capabilities.
In addition, Creatd announced that the record date for its upcoming annual shareholder meeting has been changed from April 17, 2026 to May 26, 2026. The virtual annual shareholder meeting will now be held on June 25, 2026. Shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 26, 2026 will be entitled to vote at the meeting.
“We are continuing to complete the necessary steps associated with our SEC re-registration process, audited financial statements, corporate reorganization, and shareholder meeting preparation,” said Frommer. “We believe the updated timing will allow the Company to better align these milestones with our annual meeting and broader corporate initiatives.”
