Slam Corp. Announces Sponsor Sale; Board and Officer Resignations

What Happened Slam Corp. (the Company) disclosed on Jan. 27, 2026 that Slam Sponsor, LLC (the Sponsor) entered into a securities purchase agreement under which certain Sponsor members (the Sellers) agreed to sell 100% of the Sponsor’s issued and outstanding equity interests to Digital Investment Strategy, LLC (the Acquiror). The Agreement involves the Company only with respect to certain provisions. Closing is expected no later than March 15, 2026, subject to the conditions in the Agreement. Upon closing, the Sellers will transfer control of the Sponsor and the Company’s current directors and officers will resign; the Acquiror will appoint new directors and officers to fill those vacancies.

Key Details

  • Closing timeline: expected on or before March 15, 2026, subject to closing conditions.
  • Governance change: current directors and officers will resign at closing and the Acquiror will appoint replacements. (No financial terms disclosed in the 8‑K.)
