The Garg Group is actively soliciting consents via social media, indicating an urgent push to secure the remaining votes needed to remove directors. The next catalyst is the consent revocation deadline or any settlement announcement — monitor for a definitive vote count or further PREC14A filings from either side.

Executive Summary
Founder Vishal Garg's dissident group filed additional definitive proxy soliciting materials (DFAN14A) on September 25, 2026, including social media posts from September 24-25, to solicit written consents to remove five directors. This escalates the ongoing proxy fight against Better Home & Finance Holding Company's board, following Garg's prior consent solicitation campaign launched in August 2026.
