The late proxy reminder suggests management is worried about turnout — a failed vote could kill the BullionFX deal. With market cap at only $4M, the all-stock acquisition would be highly dilutive if approved; rejection removes that overhang but also the business thesis. Monitor results post-May 28 meeting closely.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Functional Brands management issued a DEFA14A reminder letter to shareholders urging them to vote before the May 27 cut-off for the May 28 Special Meeting. This comes 7 days after a CFO/board shuffle (8-K filed May 20) and amid a contested proxy fight and a proposed all-stock acquisition of BullionFX assets (~$142.9 million) subject to shareholder approval. The letter signals low turnout and risk that the vote fails.
