Fresh Vine Wine announces registration for business combination

CHARLOTTE, NC – Fresh Vine Wine, Inc. (NYSE American: VINE), a micro-cap company with a market value of $11.83 million specializing in retail eating places, announced on Monday that a significant step has been taken towards its proposed business combination with Amaze Holdings Inc. and Adifex Holdings LLC.

The company’s subsidiary, Pubco, filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), a crucial phase in the merger process. According to InvestingPro data, Fresh Vine Wine has experienced significant volatility, with its stock price currently at $0.74 after surging 164.74% over the past six months.

This registration statement, filed on February 5, 2025, is part of the process for Pubco to become the surviving public entity after the completion of the business combination. Consequently, Fresh Vine Wine will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco, and its shareholders will receive Pubco common stock.

Similarly, Adifex will also become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco, with its equity interests being automatically converted into Pubco common stock. InvestingPro analysis reveals that Fresh Vine Wine currently faces financial challenges, with a weak financial health score and concerning liquidity metrics, including a current ratio of 0.14.

The business combination, which has been in the pipeline, is expected to bring together Fresh Vine Wine’s retail expertise with Amaze’s and Adifex’s resources. This merger comes at a critical time, as InvestingPro data shows the company facing significant operational challenges, including a 75.66% revenue decline and negative gross margins of -113.75%. The transaction is subject to certain conditions, including the approval of Fresh Vine Wine’s stockholders and regulatory nods.

The announcement included a cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements, emphasizing that they are based on current expectations and assumptions and are subject to various risks and uncertainties. These could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the statements.

The company’s filing also indicated that VINE and Adifex’s directors, executive officers, and other members of management might be considered participants in the solicitation of proxies for the proposed business combination. Detailed information about these individuals’ interests in the transaction will be provided in upcoming proxy materials.

Investors and security holders are urged to read the proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents filed with the SEC when they become available, as they will contain important information about the proposed business combination.

This report is based on a press release statement and does not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent, authorization, or offer to buy any securities. The transaction remains subject to the registration statement’s effectiveness and other customary closing conditions.

In other recent news, Fresh Vine Wine has taken a significant step in expanding its operations by announcing its plan to acquire Amaze Software (ETR:SOWGn). This acquisition is part of a larger business combination agreement involving several entities, including Amaze Holdings Inc., VINE Merger Sub Inc., Adifex Merger Sub LLC, and Adifex Holdings LLC. The completion of this acquisition is contingent on the closure of the Amaze Software purchase by Adifex, with Amaze shareholders set to exchange their shares for membership interests in Adifex.

This move aims to bolster Fresh Vine Wine’s market position by integrating Amaze’s software solutions into its business operations. Despite these positive expectations, the company’s filing warns that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may be subject to risks and uncertainties. Further details about the proposed business combination will be made available in future SEC filings.
