Rezolve AI responds to Commerce.com board’s rejection of proposal

Rezolve Ai (RZLV) issued a direct response to the Commerce.com (CMRC) Board of Directors. On April 8, the Board rejected Rezolve Ai’s proposal to acquire Commerce.com. through an exchange of one Rezolve Ai share for every two Commerce.com shares. In doing so, the Commerce.com Board described the proposal as a discount to current trading prices and argued that its recent ‘material business transformation’ justified rejecting further engagement. The company said, The Commerce.com Board is asking its shareholders to believe in a fiction: that a thinly traded screen price is the same thing as realizable value, and that 3% annual revenue growth constitutes a credible standalone recovery. The Board’s response points to a single day’s closing price, an approach that ignores the fundamental outlook of either business. One is a high-growth platform on track to deliver 7.5x year-on-year revenue growth, with 64% of its 2026 target already contracted. The other is guiding for as little as 1.5% in the year ahead, on a stock that has lost 96% of its value. Applying spot prices to both strips out everything that matters: growth trajectory, synergy value, and recovery optionality. A Board that cannot defend its own outlook has no standing to speak on behalf of shareholders today.” “Commerce.com’s Board is hallucinating a turnaround that simply is not there,” said Daniel Wagner, CEO. “Rezolve Ai was built to eliminate hallucinations from commerce. Boards should hold themselves to the same standard. A screen price is not liquidity, a rebrand is not transformation and 3% growth is not a recovery story. Shareholders are being asked to accept fiction as value while the Board rejects an offer from a business moving at an entirely different pace. Commerce.com shareholders do not need to believe in a theory. Commerce.com’s Board is trying to justify today. We are building the e-commerce infrastructure of tomorrow. We are offering Commerce.com’s shareholders a path out of an illiquid mirage and into a company with real momentum, real liquidity and a clear line of sight to substantially greater scale. Rezolve was engineered to separate signal from fiction. Commerce.com’s Board had its chance to engage. Instead, it chose to defend a hallucinated standalone future. We are now taking our case directly to the owners of the company.”
