DALLAS, April 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beneficient (NASDAQ: BENF) (“Beneficient,” “Ben” or the “Company”), a technology-enabled platform providing exit opportunities and primary capital solutions and related trust and custody services to holders of alternative assets through its proprietary online platform, AltAccess, announced today that the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which had been previously adjourned to 9:00 a.m. Central time today, April 30, 2025, has been once again adjourned to allow for more time for stockholders to vote.
At this time, there were not present, by remote communication or by proxy, a sufficient number of shares of the Company’s common stock to constitute a quorum.

During the period of the adjournment, the Company will continue to solicit proxies from its stockholders with respect to the proposals set forth in the Company’s proxy statement. Proxies previously submitted in respect to the Annual Meeting will be voted at the reconvened meeting unless properly revoked, and stockholders who have previously submitted a proxy or otherwise voted need not take any action unless they wish to change their vote.
The Company encourages all stockholders who have not yet voted to do so before May 27, 2025 at 11:59 p.m. Central time. The stockholders may vote by internet at https://www.cstproxyvote.com, or by telephone at 1 (866) 894-0536, or by returning a properly executed proxy card to Corporate Secretary, Beneficient, at 325 N.
