AUDDIA INC.

Auddia Inc. announced the adjournment of its special meeting of stockholders, originally scheduled for September 23, 2026, to October 7, 2026. This procedural adjournment is intended to provide additional time for stockholders to vote on the proposed merger with Thramann Holdings, which would form McCarthy Finney. While approximately 88% of the shares voted to date are in favor of the merger, the company has not yet reached the required threshold of a majority of all outstanding shares. The meeting will reconvene virtually, and Auddia is urging stockholders to cast their votes.

Auddia Inc. has issued senior unsecured bridge notes totaling up to $1.4 million to Thramann Holdings, LT350, Influence Healthcare, and Voyex. These notes provide interim funding and working capital to the target companies while their merger with Auddia is pending. The funds advanced will be credited towards Auddia's $12 million net cash closing condition for the merger.

Auddia Inc. announced that its Discovr Radio artist promotion platform has successfully exited its pilot phase and will transition to a monthly recurring subscription model with new tiered pricing in early July. The pilot demonstrated strong performance, including over 1,500 accounts, 185,000 plays, a 44% average clickthrough rate, and a 33% free-to-paid conversion rate. This move marks a significant step towards recurring revenue for Auddia and aligns with the broader McCarthy Finney strategy.

Auddia Inc. announced that LT350, one of the businesses set to merge with Auddia to form McCarthy Finney, has initiated detailed engineering and deployment planning for its first operational AI canopy pilot.

This engagement aims to deliver the first pilot canopy within 18 months of the merger's completion.

Auddia Inc. announced it has received the initial comment letter from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding its Form S-4 registration statement for the proposed merger with McCarthy Finney, Inc. The company expects to file an amended S-4 addressing all comments early next week and anticipates the merger will close in July. This merger is designed to create a diversified AI-driven operating company, McCarthy Finney, which will leverage the McCarthy Finney Operating System across its four core subsidiaries: LT350, Influence Healthcare, Voyex, and Auddia.

Auddia Inc. announced the commencement of development for the McCarthy Finney Operating System (MCFN-OS), an AI-native, Web3-enabled platform intended to power McCarthy Finney post-merger with Thramann Holdings, LLC. The company has engaged Chase J. Thompson as Platform Architect, marking the transition of MCFN-OS from conceptual architecture to an active build. The first production module of the system is targeted for release in Q3 2026, designed to deliver agentic AI, a shared institutional memory, and chat-first workflow automation across all future subsidiaries.

Auddia Inc. announced a Full Platform Partnership between its Discovr Radio artist promotion platform and Beatcave, Canada's premier music community. Under the 12-month agreement, Discovr Radio becomes Beatcave's Official Membership Partner, leveraging Beatcave's 1.42 million 90-day digital views to expand artist acquisition. This partnership is expected to strengthen Auddia's artist pipeline in anticipation of its merger with Thramann Holdings, LLC to form McCarthy Finney, an AI holding company.

Auddia Inc. announced a Notice of Allowance from the USPTO for a foundational patent covering its core AI technology for commercial-free AM/FM radio and its Discovr Radio platform. This patent, titled "A Method for Classifying Segments of an Audio Stream of a Radio Program," protects the company's machine-learning system for audio classification and song boundary identification. The allowance expands Auddia's IP portfolio to 6 issued and 6 pending patents, and the broader McCarthy Finney (MCFN) platform to 20 issued and 9 pending patents across its subsidiaries. This strengthens Auddia's competitive advantage in AI-enhanced AM/FM radio and artist discovery, especially as it prepares for its merger with Thramann Holdings to form McCarthy Finney.

Auddia Inc. announced the successful debut of Discovr Radio's brand activation at the Departure Festival + Conference in Toronto, generating over 65 demo submissions and high attendance.

The company is in talks to expand programming for the 2027 festival and explore additional partnerships in the region. Auddia also reiterated its pending merger with Thramann Holdings, LLC, which will form McCarthy Finney, an AI holding company.
