Avi Cohen's Appointment and the Envoy Technologies Acquisition Context

According to the filing, CID HoldCo, Inc. (NASDAQ:DAIC), a Delaware corporation headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, appointed Avi Cohen to its Board of Directors on October 23, 2026. The appointment followed BladeRanger Ltd.'s exercise of its designation rights under the Purchase Agreement, which governed the company's acquisition of Envoy Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation that became a wholly owned subsidiary of CID HoldCo on October 9, 2026. Under that transaction, the company acquired 100% of Envoy's outstanding capital stock in exchange for shares of common stock and shares of a newly authorized Series C Convertible Non-Redeemable Preferred Stock.

The filing describes Cohen as bringing "extensive public and private company board experience in the semiconductor technology, investigative analytics and corporate investment strategy sectors." Cohen currently serves as Chairman of ZOOZ Strategy Ltd. (NASDAQ and TASE: ZOOZ), an electric vehicle energy solutions company, and holds board seats at Cognyte Software Ltd. (NASDAQ: CGNT), an investigative analytics AI software company, and Nova Ltd. (NASDAQ and TASE: NVMI), a semiconductor metrology solutions company. He previously served as chief executive officer of RR Media in 2015 until its acquisition by SES S.A. in 2016, and as CEO of MX1 from 2016 until 2021. Cohen holds a B.S. and an M.S. in Electrical Engineering and Applied Physics from Case Western Reserve University and an MBA from the Stanford Graduate School of Business. He will participate in the company's standard compensatory and equity arrangements for non-employee directors, the filing stated.

Separately, the filing disclosed that on October 28, 2026, the Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted CID HoldCo's request for continued listing, with the condition that the company submit an application to transfer its securities to The Nasdaq Capital Market on or before November 2, 2026. The Panel's notice acknowledged that the company had filed its delinquent Quarterly Report for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 and completed the Envoy acquisition as part of its compliance plan.
