Dear Fellow Shareholders, GrabAGun’s first year as a public company was defined by execution — on strategy, on platform, and on governance. I appreciate the depth of commitment and engagement from our entire Board, and our constructive interactions with Chairman and CEO Marc Nemati and the rest of GrabAGun’s leadership team. This is a group that takes its obligations to shareholders seriously, and that has been evident from day one. Independent Oversight The independent directors of this Board are genuinely engaged — not nominally so. In our first year, we exercised active oversight across capital allocation, vendor relationships, M&A process discipline, and board composition. Strong, independent governance is not something we intend to grow into. It is the standard we set from the beginning. Driving Growth, Managing Capital The Board’s engagement with GrabAGun’s strategy in 2025 centered on platform investment, capital discipline, and the emerging opportunity represented by PEW Logistics. Management’s investment in a new headquarters and fulfillment facility, sized for growth well beyond 2026, and its repurchase of $8.9 million of shares reflect a capital allocation philosophy the board endorses: deploy with conviction when the purpose and return profile are clear — and hold the standard when they are not. GrabAGun’s balance sheet is a competitive advantage, and we intend to keep it that way. A Board Built for This Company Following this Annual Meeting, the Board will reduce from nine directors to eight. The Board believes that a focused, eight director composition, with a clear independent majority, is the right structure for this stage. A leaner Board sharpens accountability and ensures every seat carries genuine responsibility. Five of the eight directors are independent under NYSE rules, and the Board brings together experience in public company finance, firearms policy and law, corporate governance, communications, capital markets, and technology. Executive Compensation As an emerging growth company, GrabAGun is not subject to an advisory say-on-pay vote at this time. Nevertheless, the Compensation Committee approached executive pay in our first public year with care. In 2025, with formal Annual Incentive Plan metrics not yet in place at the time of the Business Combination, the Board approved a one-time discretionary bonus for our named executive officers — appropriate for a year that required the leadership team to simultaneously operate the business, complete a public listing, and build the infrastructure of a NYSE-listed company. For 2026, formal Annual Incentive Plan metrics and targets are operational. Cash compensation is now tied to defined performance outcomes, and equity awards vest over three years — aligning management’s long-term interests with those of shareholders. Your trust in this Board is something we do not take for granted. We look forward to reporting back to you after another year of strong execution — on strategy, on platform, and on governance. Sincerely, Kelly Reisdorf Lead Independent Director GrabAGun Digital Holdings Inc. April 30, 2026 |
