TaskUs, Inc. To Adjourn Special Meeting of Stockholders Regarding Proposed Take-Private Transaction
Since the announcement of the transaction, the Special Committee of the TaskUs Board of Directors and the Buyer Group have engaged in discussions with several stockholders concerning the proposed transaction. In light of AI’s impact on the Company’s business and its future prospects, the Special Committee continues to believe that the proposed transaction is in the best interest of TaskUs stockholders.
The approval of the merger agreement requires, among other things, the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast by stockholders excluding the Buyer Group (the “Unaffiliated Stockholder Vote”). Based on a preliminary assessment of votes received by the Company’s proxy solicitor, the Unaffiliated Stockholder Vote had not been obtained as of September 10, 2025. Accordingly, the special meeting is being adjourned to provide additional time to solicit proxies from TaskUs stockholders to obtain the Unaffiliated Stockholder Vote.
The special meeting was adjourned to September 24, 2025, at 7:30 a.m. Central Time, and will be held virtually. The record date for the adjourned special meeting remains August 6, 2025. Proxies previously submitted will be voted at the reconvened meeting unless properly revoked. Stockholders who have not already voted or wish to change their votes are encouraged to do so promptly using the instructions provided in their voting instruction form or proxy card.
As previously announced on May 9, 2025, the Company and the Buyer Group entered into a definitive agreement under which the Buyer Group will acquire
