PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Datavault AI Inc. (“Datavault AI” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: DVLT), a leader in data monetization, credentialing, and digital engagement technologies, today announced two major developments to enhance and elevate the profile of Dream Bowl XIV, scheduled for Jan. 11, 2026, at AT&T Stadium, of which the Company is a licensing partner and co-sponsor.

First, Datavault AI, in collaboration with Dream Bowl XIV and NFL Alumni Health, proudly announces a strategic partnership supporting the launch of Dream Bowl Meme Coin II. This partnership underscores a shared commitment to advancing player health, wellness, and long-term care for former professional athletes, while elevating the Dream Bowl’s mission of preparing elite college football talent for the next level—both on and off the field.

“We are genuinely excited to be working with Datavault AI on a breakthrough initiative that brings artificial intelligence, digital assets, and real-world impact together for the first time,” said Billy Davis, two-time Super Bowl champion and Co-Director of Healthcare Initiatives for the NFL Alumni Association . “Datavault AI is building something truly innovative—an AI-powered token designed with purpose, transparency, and long-term potential in mind.”

Second, in commemoration of the Dream Bowl XIV and consistent with Datavault AI’s focus on applying artificial intelligence to level the playing field in professional organizations, the Company is highlighting how AI can support football organizations in identifying and evaluating talent across traditional athletics and e-sports. In connection with these initiatives, and to demonstrate how tokenization can make select aspects of the game immutable, interactive and verifiable, the Board of Directors of Datavault AI (the “Datavault Board”) has approved a dividend of the Dream Bowl Meme Coin II token to all eligible record equity holders of Datavault AI common stock and other equity securities. The record date for this dividend is Jan. 7, 2026.

The record date for the dividend may be changed by the Datavault Board for any reason at any time prior to the actual payment date, and payment of the dividend is conditioned upon the Datavault Board having not revoked the dividend prior to the payment date, including for a material change to the solvency or surplus analysis presented to the Datavault Board. Subject to the right of the Datavault Board to change the record date, the payment date for the dividend will be determined by subsequent resolutions of the Datavault Board, which payment date will be within 60 days following the record date (the “Payment Date”).

In order to receive the Dream Bowl Meme Coin II digital collectibles, all eligible recipients will be required to open a digital wallet with Datavault AI and execute an Opt-In Agreement, pursuant to which such holders will agree, among other things, to the payment conditions set forth therein, and acknowledge that such holders understand the process for receiving the Dream Bowl Meme Coin II digital collectibles, that the Datavault Board can change the record date or payment date or revoke the distribution prior to the payment date, and that the Dream Bowl Meme Coin II digital collectibles may not have or maintain any value.

The Company will provide further instructions regarding wallet setup, token access, and distribution procedures to stockholders of record of Datavault AI on the books and records of the transfer agents of Datavault AI in a subsequent communication prior to the payment date.

Datavault AI remains committed to innovative stockholder value creation. Building on the successful distribution of the original Dream Bowl Meme Coin on Dec. 24, 2025, this special Dream Bowl Meme Coin II distribution celebrates the historic NFL Alumni Health partnership and provides additional utility to stockholders. Each exclusive digital collectible will feature enhanced utility, including immutable proof of ownership. The Dream Bowl Meme Coin II will be airdropped to Data Vault® wallets on or after the Payment Date. Datavault AI will provide detailed instructions regarding wallet setup, token access, and distribution procedures in a subsequent communication prior to the Payment Date.

The Dream Bowl Meme Coin II does not in and of itself: (i) represent or confer any equity, voting, dividend, profit-sharing, or ownership rights in Datavault AI or any other entity; (ii) provide any right to receive monetary payments, distributions, or appreciation; or (iii) create any expectation of profit or reliance on the managerial or entrepreneurial efforts of Datavault AI or others.
