Vivakor (나스닥: VIVK)은 앞서 발표한 특별 배당의 지급일을 2025년 12월 31일로 재설정했습니다. 회사는 배당 기산일이 여전히 2025년 9월 5일로 남아 있으며, 그 날짜에 등록된 주주가 배당 대상이 됨을 확인했습니다.
이번 지급일 변경은 현재 정부 셧다운으로 SEC에 필요한 커뮤니케이션 및 제출을 완료할 수 없기 때문이며, 셧다운이 계속될 경우 특별 배당이 추가 지연될 수 있다고 Vivakor는 경고했습니다. 또한 Vivakor는 현재 Adapti, Inc.의 206,595주를 보유하고 있으며, 이 회사는 최근 제임스 볼링지(James Ballengee)가 이끄는 한 법인의 소유였던 다중 플랫폼 스포츠 에이전시를 인수했다고 밝혔습니다.
