07/17/2025 – 04:05 PM

Company Urges Stockholders to Vote “FOR” All Six Allied Director Nominees on the WHITE Proxy Card Today

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Allied Gaming & Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: AGAE) (the “Company”, “AGAE” or “Allied”), a global experiential entertainment company, announced that it has filed an investor presentation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in connection with its combined 2024/2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on August 4, 2025. Stockholders of record as of June 25, 2025, will be entitled to vote at the meeting.

Key highlights of the presentation include:

Through strong and focused leadership, Allied’s Board and Management have driven substantial progress and built a compelling, actionable plan to sustain and accelerate long-term growth.

• The Company has laid out a clear-cut strategy for future growth and long-term value creation.
• With AGAE’s rock solid balance sheet, the Company will continue to focus on unlocking stockholder value through:
  • Organic growth by investing in our existing businesses.
  • Strategic partnerships that are not capital intensive.
  • Accretive acquisitions and investments in gaming, proprietary content IP, live and experiential entertainment.
• The Company has demonstrated significant progress advancing its strategic initiatives and consistently grown revenue in the last 4 years.
• Outperforming our peer set over the prior 1-year, 3-year and 5-year periods.

Knighted Pastures LLC (“Knighted”) has provided no plan or path forward whatsoever.

• Despite Allied’s attempts to constructively engage with Knighted, they have been uninterested in discussing their ideas for the Company.
• Knighted showed no interest in voting in each of the past two annual meetings, and has turned down our offer to join the Board repeatedly, only showing interest in gaining complete control through the launch of a proxy contest and pursuing costly and time-consuming litigation.
• Their proxy statement also provides no clear details on how they would use your cash should they take control of the Company.

The Allied Gaming Board of Directors is committed to acting in the best interests of all stockholders and unanimously recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” all six of AGAE‘s director nominees standing for election – Jingsheng (Jason) Lu, Guanzhou (Jerry) Qin, Mao Sun, Roy Anderson, Yushi Guo and Chi Zhao – on the WHITE proxy card today.
