Executive Summary
RTB Digital appointed former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss as a director, effective September 30, 2026. The appointment comes within two weeks of two activist SC 13D/A filings by Jason Dorsett, suggesting the activist may be influencing board composition. The filing is a routine Item 5.02 director appointment with disclosed compensation, but the cross-filing activist context elevates its significance.
