Trump Media Issues Statement on Filing of Form S-3

Rhea-AI Summary

Trump Media and Technology Group (Nasdaq: DJT), which operates Truth Social, Truth+, and Truth.Fi, has issued a clarification regarding its recent Form S-3 filing with the SEC. The company addressed what it calls 'inaccurate stories' about the filing, emphasizing that the shares in question were previously registered in June through an S-1 form. The new S-3 filing is described as a routine procedure to maintain the effectiveness of the company's filings.

The company explicitly stated that there is currently no open window for any affiliate to sell shares, countering media reports suggesting the filing was preparing for potential share sales by the Trump trust.

SARASOTA, Fla., April 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trump Media and Technology Group Corp. (Nasdaq: DJT) ("TMTG" or “the Company”), operator of the social media platform Truth Social, the streaming platform Truth+, and the FinTech brand Truth.Fi, released the following statement in response to inaccurate stories about its filing of a registration statement on form S-3 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission:

“Legacy media outlets are spreading a fake story suggesting that a TMTG filing today is paving the way for the Trump trust to sell its shares in TMTG.
