Forward Industries has urged SkyAI shareholders to vote against the re-election of five directors and the 2026 equity plan, which would issue 5.145 million new shares. This comes after Forward’s all-stock offer of $0.367 per SKYA share—a 20% premium—was rejected. Bastion Trading, a 9.99% stakeholder, plans to abstain from voting for all director candidates, citing concerns over bylaw amendments, a “poison pill” strategy, and related-party transactions. Traders are evaluating the risk-reward profile as technical analysis for crypto signals presents mixed outcomes ahead of potential shareholder action.

BlockBeats report: On September 10, Solana’s treasury company SkyAI will hold its annual general meeting on September 18. Potential acquirer Forward Industries has publicly urged shareholders to vote against the re-election of five incumbent directors and to reject the 2026 equity incentive plan, which proposes authorizing an additional 5,145,000 shares for equity incentives.


Previously, Forward proposed an all-stock acquisition offer to acquire SKYA at a rate of 0.367 shares of FWDI for each share of SKYA, representing a premium of approximately 20%, but the offer was unanimously rejected by SkyAI’s board in July. Meanwhile, shareholders such as Bastion Trading, which holds a 9.99% stake in SkyAI, have filed documents with the SEC indicating their intention to vote “WITHHOLD ALL” for all director nominees and raising concerns about the company’s recent charter amendments, the adoption of a poison pill without shareholder approval, and related-party transactions.
