Datavault AI Inc. 8-K

What Happened Datavault AI Inc. filed an 8-K on January 7, 2026 and issued a press release announcing timing for the previously declared dividend of warrants. The Board set the Record Date as January 7, 2026 (subject to change) and expects to make the Distribution on February 21, 2026 (subject to change). The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the filing.

Key Details

• Record Date: January 7, 2026 (Board may change to a later date).
• Distribution Date (expected): February 21, 2026.
• Distribution ratio: 1 warrant per 60 shares of common stock (or common-stock equivalents); holders with fewer than 60 shares receive no warrants and fractional groups are rounded down.
• Warrant economics: Each warrant is expected to allow purchase of 1 share of Datavault common stock at $5.00 per share; warrants expire one year after the Distribution Date (subject to adjustment per the Warrant Agreement).
• Exercise condition: Exercising a warrant is expected to require the holder to possess at least one Dream Bowl Meme Coin II token per warrant in a digital wallet (verification by Datavault).
• Registration: The company has not registered the warrant issuance itself (distribution for no consideration) but intends to file a prospectus supplement to register the underlying shares under its effective S-3 shelf.

Why It Matters

• Potential dilution: If the warrants are exercised, additional shares could be issued at $5.00 each, increasing share count.
• Holders must meet thresholds and token requirement: Only holders with at least 60 shares (or equivalents) as of the Record Date qualify, and exercise likely requires holding Dream Bowl Meme Coin II tokens—important for investors who do not own the token.
• Timing and conditions may change: The Board can change the Record Date or Distribution Date or revoke the Distribution, and final exercise terms will be set in the Warrant Agreement and prospectus supplement to be filed with the SEC.

Investors should read the forthcoming Warrant Agreement and prospectus supplement (to the Form S-3) and review Datavault’s SEC filings for full details and risk factors.
