Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. (DAAQ) outlines its planned business combination with Old Glory Bank, a Delaware bank holding company. Under the Business Combination Agreement, DAAQ will change its jurisdiction from the Cayman Islands to Texas, rename itself OGB Financial Company, and merge with Old Glory Bank, with the renamed entity continuing as the surviving public company.

The communication reproduces promotional posts by Old Glory Bank and co‑founder John Rich highlighting plans to integrate traditional banking with crypto and to list the combined company on Nasdaq in 2026. It also explains that a Form S‑4 registration statement with a proxy statement/prospectus will be filed for DAAQ shareholders to vote on the transaction, and stresses that many statements are forward‑looking and subject to significant risks, regulatory approvals, shareholder votes, and other conditions before the deal and listing can be completed.

Insights

DAAQ details its de‑SPAC with Old Glory Bank and planned Nasdaq listing, but all terms remain conditional.

This communication describes a proposed merger where Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. will domesticate from Cayman to Texas, rename as OGB Financial Company, and merge with Old Glory Bank, a registered bank holding company. The combined entity is positioned as a bridge between traditional finance and crypto, with management statements pointing to a planned Nasdaq listing in 2026.

The text emphasizes that the combination requires successful filing and effectiveness of a Form S‑4 registration statement, shareholder approvals at DAAQ and Old Glory Bank, and compliance with stock exchange listing standards. It also includes extensive forward‑looking statement disclaimers and a broad list of risk factors, from potential termination of definitive agreements to legal proceedings and changes in laws or market conditions.

Overall, this is an early transaction communication rather than a final closing announcement. The eventual impact on shareholders depends on future milestones such as SEC effectiveness of the S‑4, the shareholder votes on the business combination, and the combined company’s ability to achieve a Nasdaq listing and execute its strategy around integrating traditional banking with crypto.

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements may include, for example, statements about DAAQ’s or Old Glory Bank’s ability to effectuate the Business Combination discussed in this document; the benefits of the Business Combination; the future financial performance of Pubco (which will be the go-forward public company following the completion of the Business Combination) following the closing; changes in Old Glory Bank’s strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by DAAQ, Old Glory Bank and their respective management teams, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction, or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of DAAQ and Old Glory Bank. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (1) changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political conditions, and in applicable laws and regulations, (2) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the definitive agreements and any negotiations with respect to the Business Combination; (3) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against DAAQ, Old Glory Bank, the combined company, or others; (4) the inability to complete the Business Combination due to the failure to obtain approval of the shareholders of DAAQ or Old Glory Bank for the Business Combination or to satisfy other conditions to closing; (5) changes to the proposed structure of the Business Combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations; (6) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the consummation of the Business Combination; (7) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of DAAQ or Old Glory Bank as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination; (8) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things: competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, the ability of the combined company to build or maintain relationships with customers and retain its management and key employees, the timing and amount of future capital expenditures and requirements for additional capital, and the timing of future cash flow provided by operating activities, if any; (9) costs related to the Business Combination; (10) the possibility that Old Glory Bank or the combined company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, political and/or competitive factors; (11) estimates of expenses and profitability and underlying assumptions with respect to shareholder redemptions and purchase price and other adjustments; and (12) other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in DAAQ’s filings with the SEC, including the Registration Statement, when available, and any periodic Exchange Act reports filed by DAAQ with the SEC such as its Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

 

You should carefully consider the foregoing risk factors and the other risks and uncertainties which will be more fully described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Registration Statement and other documents filed by DAAQ from time to time with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or DAAQ’s or Old Glory Bank’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither DAAQ nor Old Glory Bank presently know or that they currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect DAAQ and Old Glory Bank’s expectations, plans, or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this communication. Nothing in this communication should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this communication. DAAQ, Old Glory Bank, and their respective representatives and affiliates specifically disclaim any obligation to, and do not intend to, update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Accordingly, these forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing DAAQ’s, Old Glory Bank’s, or any of their respective representatives or affiliates’ assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication, and therefore undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
