Rhea-AI Filing Summary

GrabAGun Digital Holdings Inc. is asking shareholders to elect eight directors and ratify Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P. as independent auditor at a fully virtual 2026 annual meeting. Shareholders of record as of April 24, 2026 can vote online, by phone, mail, or during the meeting.

The board will shrink from nine to eight seats as one director is not standing for re‑election, with five nominees qualifying as independent under NYSE rules. The proxy details committee structures, a mergers and acquisitions committee with authority over smaller deals, and comprehensive governance policies including a clawback policy, insider trading and anti‑hedging rules.

The filing also outlines director pay, including a $50,000 annual cash retainer plus additional committee fees and RSU grants, and discloses 2025 compensation for top executives, combining base salary, discretionary cash bonuses, RSU awards and profit distributions from the pre‑merger business.

Negative

CFO total compensation 2025 $1,741,747 Justin C. Hilty, Chief Financial Officer, fiscal year 2025

Shares outstanding 29,400,075 shares Common stock outstanding as of April 24, 2026 record date
Business Combination financial
"On July 15, 2025, GrabAGun Digital Holdings Inc. ... consummated the transactions contemplated by that certain Business Combination Agreement..."
A business combination happens when two or more companies join together to operate as one, like two friends merging their teams into a single group. This is important because it can change how companies grow, compete, and make money, often making them bigger and more powerful in the market.
restricted stock units financial
"each non-employee director was granted an equity award of 11,433 RSUs on July 16, 2025..."
Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
Clawback Policy financial
"We have adopted a Dodd-Frank Compensation Recovery Policy (the “Clawback Policy”) in accordance with NYSE and SEC Rules..."
A clawback policy is a company rule that lets the firm take back pay, bonuses or stock awards from current or former executives if results are later found to be incorrect, misconduct occurred, or targets were missed. It matters to investors because it helps protect the value of their holdings by discouraging risky or fraudulent behavior and ensuring executive rewards reflect real, verified performance—think of it as a return policy for executive pay.
Change in Control financial
"within the period beginning three months before and ending twelve months after a “Change in Control”..."
A "change in control" occurs when the ownership or management of a company shifts significantly, such as through a merger, acquisition, or sale of a large part of its assets. This change can impact how the company is run and may influence its future direction. For investors, it matters because it can affect the company's stability, strategy, and value, often signaling potential changes in investment risk or opportunity.
Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreements financial
"the Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreements previously executed by the executives in favor of GrabAGun and its subsidiaries..."
independent registered public accounting firm financial
"Ratification of the appointment of Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P. as GrabAGun’s independent registered public accounting firm..."
An independent registered public accounting firm is an outside accounting company officially registered with the government regulator to examine and report on a public company's financial records and controls. Investors treat its reports like an impartial inspector’s certificate — they add credibility to financial statements, help spot errors or misleading claims, and reduce the risk that shareholders are relying on unchecked or biased numbers.

Letter from our Lead Independent Director

 

img31363847_1.jpg

 

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

GrabAGun’s first year as a public company was defined by execution — on strategy, on platform, and on governance. I appreciate the depth of commitment and engagement from our entire Board, and our constructive interactions with Chairman and CEO Marc Nemati and the rest of GrabAGun’s leadership team. This is a group that takes its obligations to shareholders seriously, and that has been evident from day one.

Independent Oversight

The independent directors of this Board are genuinely engaged — not nominally so. In our first year, we exercised active oversight across capital allocation, vendor relationships, M&A process discipline, and board composition. Strong, independent governance is not something we intend to grow into. It is the standard we set from the beginning.

Driving Growth, Managing Capital

The Board’s engagement with GrabAGun’s strategy in 2025 centered on platform investment, capital discipline, and the emerging opportunity represented by PEW Logistics. Management’s investment in a new headquarters and fulfillment facility, sized for growth well beyond 2026, and its repurchase of $8.9 million of shares reflect a capital allocation philosophy the board endorses: deploy with conviction when the purpose and return profile are clear — and hold the standard when they are not. GrabAGun’s balance sheet is a competitive advantage, and we intend to keep it that way.

A Board Built for This Company

Following this Annual Meeting, the Board will reduce from nine directors to eight. The Board believes that a focused, eight director composition, with a clear independent majority, is the right structure for this stage. A leaner Board sharpens accountability and ensures every seat carries genuine responsibility. Five of the eight directors are independent under NYSE rules, and the Board brings together experience in public company finance, firearms policy and law, corporate governance, communications, capital markets, and technology.

Executive Compensation

As an emerging growth company, GrabAGun is not subject to an advisory say-on-pay vote at this time. Nevertheless, the Compensation Committee approached executive pay in our first public year with care. In 2025, with formal Annual Incentive Plan metrics not yet in place at the time of the Business Combination, the Board approved a one-time discretionary bonus for our named executive officers — appropriate for a year that required the leadership team to simultaneously operate the business, complete a public listing, and build the infrastructure of a NYSE-listed company. For 2026, formal Annual Incentive Plan metrics and targets are operational. Cash compensation is now tied to defined performance outcomes, and equity awards vest over three years — aligning management’s long-term interests with those of shareholders.

Your trust in this Board is something we do not take for granted. We look forward to reporting back to you after another year of strong execution — on strategy, on platform, and on governance.

Sincerely,

img31363847_2.gif

PROPOSAL 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

 

 

Proposal 1 – Election of Directors

Election of eight directors to each serve a one-year term ending at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Shareholders

 

Our Board has been carefully and thoughtfully built with a mix of individuals who possess the necessary skills and experience to effectively oversee our business. The Board has nominated the following eight currently serving directors for election at the Annual Meeting, each of whom joined our Board upon the closing of our Business Combination in July 2025: (1) Marc Nemati, (2) Matthew Vittitow, (3) Chris Cox, (4) Collins Idehen Jr., (5) Andrew J. Keegan, (6) Blake Masters, (7) Kelly Reisdorf and (8) Donald J. Trump Jr. Dusty Wunderlich was not nominated for reelection at this year's Annual Meeting at the mutual agreement of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Mr. Wunderlich. The Board expects to decrease the size of the Board from nine directors to eight directors immediately following the Annual Meeting upon the completion of Mr. Wunderlich’s term. We believe that any deadlock risk from having an even number of directors is small, and that an even board structure will necessitate deeper discussion and compromise, leading to more considered and unified outcomes.

Biographical information for each nominee follows this proposal. For information about our policies and practices related to our Board, see “Corporate Governance”, beginning on page 11.

If elected, the nominee will serve a one-year term that expires at the next annual meeting of shareholders. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxyholders will vote proxies “FOR” each of the nominees of the Board. Each nominee has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and agreed to serve if elected. The Board has no reason to believe that any of its nominees will be unable or unwilling to serve if elected. However, if any of the Board’s nominees are unable to serve as director at any point prior to the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the Board may reduce the size of the Board or nominate another candidate for election. If the Board nominates a new candidate, unless otherwise provided, the form of proxy attached to this Proxy Statement permits the proxyholders to use their discretion to vote for that candidate.

Five of the eight director nominees qualify as independent directors under NYSE rules.

Vote Required

Provided that a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting, a majority of the shares of stock present virtually or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on this proposal is required for the election of directors. You may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” any one or more of the nominees. To elect a nominee, the shares voted “FOR” such nominee must exceed the number of shares voted “AGAINST” that nominee. An abstention will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” a nominee. If you do not instruct your broker how to vote with respect to this proposal, your broker may not vote your shares with respect to the election of directors. Any shares not voted will be treated as broker non-votes, and broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of the election of directors.

Recommendation of the Board

Corporate Governance

Board Composition

Our Board currently consists of nine directors, five of whom qualify as independent directors under NYSE rules. All directors elected at the Annual Meeting will be elected for terms expiring at the 2027 annual meeting of shareholders or until the election and qualification of their respective successors in office, subject to their earlier death, resignation or removal. The Board expects to decrease the size of the Board from nine directors to eight directors immediately following the Annual Meeting upon the completion of Mr. Wunderlich’s term. We believe that any deadlock risk from having an even number of directors is small, and that an even board structure will necessitate deeper discussion and compromise, leading to more considered and unified outcomes.

When considering whether directors and director nominees have the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills, taken as a whole, to enable the Board to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of its business and structure, the Board focuses primarily on each person’s background and experience as reflected in the information discussed in each of the directors’ individual biographies set forth above in order to provide an appropriate mix of experience and skills relevant to the size and nature of its business.

Director Independence

As a result of our shares being listed on the NYSE following the closing of our Business Combination, GrabAGun is required to comply with the applicable rules of such exchange in determining whether a director is independent. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has determined that each of (1) Chris Cox, (2) Andrew J. Keegan, (3) Blake Masters, (4) Collins Idehen Jr., and (5) Kelly Reisdorf qualifies as “independent” as defined under applicable NYSE rules, and the Board consists of a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the rules of the SEC and NYSE relating to director independence requirements. In making these determinations, the Board examined information provided by the directors and GrabAGun with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to GrabAGun and its management, including the beneficial ownership of capital stock by each non-employee director and the transactions involving them as described in the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions.

In addition, GrabAGun is subject to the rules of the SEC and NYSE relating to the membership, qualifications and operations of its Board committees, as discussed below.

Board Meetings and Attendance

Our Board of Directors held four meetings from the closing of the Business Combination on July 15, 2025 through the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Each of the directors attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board of Directors and the committees of the Board of Directors on which he or she served during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (in each case, which were held during the period for which he or she was a director and/or a member of the applicable committee), except for Collins Idehen Jr. who was unable to attend one set of meetings for the committees and Board of Directors, and therefore only attended 67% of the meetings of the Board of Directors and committees of the Board of Directors on which he served.

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight/Risk Committee

One of the key functions of the Board is the informed oversight of GrabAGun’s risk management process. The Board does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through the Board as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of the Board that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. For example, the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks associated with GrabAGun’s financial reporting, operational, privacy and cybersecurity, competition, legal, regulatory, compliance and reputational matters; and GrabAGun’s Compensation Committee oversees the management of risks associated with our compensation policies and programs.

Oversight of Cybersecurity Risks

GrabAGun faces a number of risks, including cybersecurity risks. The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the steps management has taken with respect to cybersecurity risk exposure. As part of this oversight, at its regularly scheduled meetings, the Audit Committee receives regular reports from GrabAGun’s management on cybersecurity risk exposure and the actions management has taken to limit, monitor or control such exposures. Management works with third-party service providers to maintain appropriate controls. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing GrabAGun’s cybersecurity risks and that the Board leadership structure supports this approach.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Formation and Amended and Restated Bylaws, which were effective upon consummation of the Business Combination (collectively, the “Charter Documents”), contain provisions that, to the fullest extent permitted by Texas law, eliminate the personal liability of GrabAGun’s directors and certain officers for monetary damages resulting from breaches of certain fiduciary duties as a director or officer. The Charter Documents require GrabAGun to indemnify and advance expenses to, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, its directors, officers and agents. GrabAGun plans to maintain a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy pursuant to which GrabAGun’s directors and officers are insured against liability for actions taken in their capacities as directors and officers. Finally, the Charter Documents prohibit any retroactive changes to the rights or protections or increasing the liability of any director or officer in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any act or omission to act giving rise to liability or indemnification.

We believe these provisions in the Charter Documents are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

In addition, GrabAGun has entered into separate indemnification agreements with our directors, officers, and certain employees containing provisions which are in some respects broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the Texas Business Organizations Code. These agreements, among other things, require GrabAGun to indemnify its directors and officers for certain expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or officer in any action or proceeding arising out of their services as one of GrabAGun’s directors or officers or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at GrabAGun’s request.

Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Business Conduct

The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that address items such as the qualifications and responsibilities of its directors and director candidates and corporate governance policies and standards applicable to the Company. In addition, the Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of the Company's employees, officers and directors, including its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other executive and senior financial officers. The full text of GrabAGun’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics are posted on the Corporate Governance portion of the Investor Relations section of GrabAGun’s website at www.grabagun.com. GrabAGun intends to make any legally required disclosures regarding amendments to, or waivers of, provisions of its code of ethics on its website rather than by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Board Leadership Structure

Mr. Nemati serves as our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Currently, the Board believes that having Mr. Nemati serve in the combined role best positions the Company to compete successfully and advance our shareholders’ interests. Mr. Nemati’s significant history with and extensive knowledge of GrabAGun enable him to drive strategy and agenda-setting at the Board level, while maintaining responsibility for executing on that strategy as CEO.

 

In circumstances where the Chairman of the Board is not independent, it is the Board’s policy, consistent with our Corporate Governance Guidelines, to designate a Lead Independent Director in order to strengthen board independence and performance. Ms. Reisdorf has been our Lead Independent Director since July 2025, and will continue to serve as our Lead Independent Director for fiscal year 2026 subject to her reelection to the Board by our shareholders at the Annual Meeting.

Clawback Policy

We have adopted a Dodd-Frank Compensation Recovery Policy (the “Clawback Policy”) in accordance with NYSE and SEC Rules, pursuant to which the Company will seek to recover any “erroneously awarded” incentive-based compensation received by current or former executive officers during the three completed fiscal years preceding the date the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement. The Compensation Committee (or a majority of independent directors) administers the policy, including determining the method of recovery and, where permitted, whether recovery is impracticable under the limited exceptions specified in the policy.

The foregoing summary of our Clawback Policy does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Company’s Clawback Policy, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 97.1 to our Annual Report.

Insider Trading Policy; Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans

We have adopted an insider trading policy (the “Insider Trading Policy”), which sets forth restrictions and procedures related to trading in the Company’s securities on the basis of material nonpublic information by our directors and employees, their immediate family members and entities owned or controlled by them as well as certain other covered persons. The policy also describes instances where certain persons, including our directors and executive officers, must obtain prior approval before engaging in a transaction in our securities. In addition, our Insider Trading Policy sets forth restrictions for trading blackout periods applicable to covered insiders, as well as limited exceptions to such restrictions.

 

2026 PROXY STATEMENT

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

 

In addition, our Insider Trading Policy prohibits covered persons from purchasing our securities on margin, borrowing against Company securities held in a margin account, or pledging our securities as collateral for a loan. However, in extraordinary situations where a person wishes to pledge Company securities as collateral for a loan (other than a margin loan) and can clearly demonstrate the financial capacity to repay the loan without resort to the pledged Company securities, an exception may be granted.

The foregoing summary of our Insider Trading Policy does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report.

We have authorized our executive officers to enter into trading plans established according to Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act with an independent broker-dealer (“broker”) designated by the Company. Under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, a broker executes trades pursuant to parameters established by the director or executive officer when entering into the plan, without subsequent direction from them. The director or executive officer may amend a Rule 10b5-1 plan in some circumstances and may terminate a plan at any time.

Anti-Hedging Policy

Our Insider Trading Policy also prohibits short sales, hedging and other derivative transactions involving GrabAGun securities by covered persons, including short sales of our securities (including short sales “against the box”), purchases or sales of puts, calls, or other derivative securities that provide the economic equivalent of ownership of any of our securities or an opportunity, direct or indirect, to profit from any change in the value of our securities.

Communications with Directors

Shareholders and other interested parties may communicate with our Board of Directors or specific members of our Board of Directors, including our independent directors and the members of our various board committees, by submitting a letter addressed to the Board of Directors of GrabAGun Digital Holdings Inc. c/o any specified individual director or directors at the address of our executive offices. Any such letters are sent to the indicated directors.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

 

 

Director Compensation

Non-Employee Director Compensation

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the Board approved the Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy (the “Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy”). Under the policy, the Company pays non-employee directors a cash retainer for service on the Board and for service on each committee of which the director is a member. The chairperson of each committee receives higher retainers for such service. These fees are payable in arrears in four equal quarterly installments on the last day of each calendar quarter, provided that the amount of such payment will be prorated for any portion of such quarter that the director is not serving on the Board and no fee was payable in respect of any period prior to the completion of the Business Combination.

In addition, under the Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, each non-employee director will receive, upon his or her initial election or appointment to the Board, an initial equity award under the Company’s 2025 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2025 Stock Incentive Plan”) in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with a value of $150,000, based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. Further, each non-employee director elected by the shareholders at our annual meeting of shareholders will receive an annual equity award under the 2025 Stock Incentive Plan in the form of RSUs with a value of $125,000, based on the closing price of the common stock on the last business day preceding the grant date.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

 

 

The Company will reimburse non-employee directors for reasonable travel and other expenses incurred in connection with attending meetings of the Board and any committee of the Board on which they serve.

We believe that equity compensation helps to further align the interests of our directors with those of our shareholders because the value of directors’ share ownership will rise and fall with that of our other shareholders. No equity awards will include any form of “gross-up payment” to cover taxes. Additionally, there is a limit on the number of shares of the Company’s common stock granted to each non-employee director such that the fair market value of equity-based awards and the amount of any cash-based awards granted to a non-employee director during any calendar year will not exceed $750,000 (or $950,000 in the director’s initial year of service).

Proposal 2 Ratification of the Company’s Independent Registered Accounting Firm

Ratification of the appointment of Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P. as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026

The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, and oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm (“independent auditor”). To execute this responsibility, the Audit Committee annually evaluates the independent auditor’s qualifications, performance, and independence. In considering the appointment of the independent auditor, the Audit Committee annually evaluates the independent auditor’s performance relative to various qualifications, including (i) the quality of services and sufficiency of resources provided by the independent auditor firm and engagement team, (ii) communication and interaction with the independent auditor, and (iii) the independent auditor’s independence, objectivity, and professional skepticism.

The Audit Committee has appointed Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P. (“Weaver”) as the Company’s independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Weaver’s background knowledge of the Company and its subsidiaries, combined with its industry expertise, has enabled it to carry out its audits of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting with effectiveness and efficiency. The members of the Audit Committee believe that the continued retention of Weaver as our independent auditor is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.

We request that our shareholders ratify the appointment of Weaver as GrabAGun’s independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. If the shareholders do not ratify such appointment, the Audit Committee will take note and may reconsider its retention of Weaver. If such appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee will still have the discretion to replace Weaver at any time during the year. Representatives of Weaver are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement. They will also be available to respond to questions from shareholders regarding their audit of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board of Directors recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Weaver as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

Proposal 2 Ratification of the Company’s Independent Registered Accounting Firm

 

 

Change in our Independent Registered Accounting Firm in July 2025

On July 17, 2025, the Audit Committee approved the engagement of Weaver as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025. Weaver served as the independent registered public accounting firm of Metroplex prior to the merger and other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination. Accordingly, WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm prior to the Business Combination, was informed on July 16, 2025 (“Resignation Date”) that it would be replaced by Weaver as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm following the closing of the Business Combination.

The report of Withum on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, and the related consolidated statement of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the period from December 30, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that such report contained a paragraph which noted that there was substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern because of the Company’s liquidity condition, date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution.

During the period from December 30, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024, and the subsequent interim period through the Resignation Date, there were no disagreements between the Company and Withum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Withum, would have caused Withum to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report covering such period.

During the period from December 30, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024, and subsequent interim period through the Resignation Date, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act (“Regulation S-K”)).

During the period from December 30, 2024 (inception) through July 17, 2025, neither the Company nor anyone on the Company’s behalf consulted with Weaver regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the financial statements of the Company, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by Weaver that Weaver concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Independent Registered Accounting Firm’s Fees and Services

As described above, Weaver was appointed as our independent registered accounting firm in July 2025, upon the dismissal of Withum. Weaver served as the independent registered public accounting firm of Metroplex prior to the Business Combination, beginning in December 2024. The fees of Weaver presented below are not representative of the fees to be billed by Weaver for the Company as a public company, but are presented solely to provide our shareholders with a basis to understand our historical relationship with Weaver.

The following table presents the aggregate fees billed by Weaver and Withum (including fees billed to Metroplex, in the case of Weaver, and to Colombier in the case of Withum), for the fiscal years

Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

Executive Compensation Prior to the Business Combination

Prior to the consummation of the Business Combination on July 15, 2025, Messrs. Hilty received annual base salaries of $180,000 and no bonuses or equity-based awards. Their primary compensation consisted of distributions of profits based on their ownership interests in the Company.

Employment Agreements

Effective upon the closing of the Business Combination, each of Messrs. Nemati, Vittitow and Hilty entered into an employment agreement with us (the “Employment Agreements”). The Employment Agreements with Messrs. Nemati, Vittitow and Hilty extend for a period of three years, with automatic renewal for one year upon expiration. Pursuant to these Employment Agreements, Messrs. Nemati, Vittitow and Hilty have agreed to devote all of their time, attention and ability, to our business as our President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, respectively. The Employment Agreements provide that Messrs. Nemati, Vittitow and Hilty will receive an initial base salary during 2025 at an annual rate of $550,000, $425,000 and $425,000, respectively, for services rendered in such positions, with annual base salary increases as reviewed and adjusted by the Board.

performance goals established by the Board (or Compensation Committee) in consultation with the executive. The cash bonuses range from up to 50% of the executive’s annual base salary for Messrs. Vittitow and Hilty to up to 100% of the executive’s annual base salary for Mr. Nemati. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreements and as subsequently approved by the Board, Messrs. Nemati, Vittitow and Hilty were granted awards under the 2025 Stock Incentive Plan of 200,000, 100,000 and 100,000 RSUs, respectively, to vest over three years in twelve equal quarterly installments, subject to the executive’s continued performance of service for GrabAGun through each vesting date. We have agreed to pay or reimburse each executive for all reasonable business expenses in the ordinary course of performing his duties, subject to customary practices and policies as are in effect with respect to travel, entertainment and other business-related activities.

The Employment Agreements also provide for severance benefits and benefits upon a termination at, following, or in connection with the resignation, change in control, or other termination of an NEO. as detailed below under “Termination and Change in Control Benefits.”

The Employment Agreements also provide that GrabAGun will indemnify each of Messrs. Nemati, Vittitow and Hilty to the fullest extent permitted by law and/or our governing certificate of formation, bylaws and other organizational documents against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding, arising by reason of the fact that the executive is or was an employee, officer, or director of GrabAGun, and that GrabAGun will maintain directors and officers liability insurance and will pay the expenses incurred in defending any proceeding referenced in the foregoing in advance of its final disposition.

In addition, the Employment Agreements incorporate by reference the terms of the Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreements previously executed by the executives in favor of GrabAGun and its subsidiaries (the “Covered Parties”). Pursuant to these agreements, the executives agreed for a period of three years after the closing of the Business Combination not to compete with the Covered Parties and not to solicit the employees and customers of the Covered Parties. Each executive also agreed not to disparage the Covered Parties and to customary confidentiality requirements.

Executive Compensation after the Business Combination

The Compensation Committee’s approach to executive compensation is guided by the following core objectives:

attracting and retaining executive talent with the experience and capabilities required to lead a publicly traded company in a competitive and regulated industry;
motivating executives to achieve the Company’s near-term operational and financial goals; and
aligning executive interests with the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders.

In establishing compensation for the NEOs in connection with the Company’s listing, the Company considered competitive market data for executive roles at companies of comparable size, stage, and complexity, with reference to both the broader eCommerce and technology-enabled retail sector and the specific demands of operating in a regulated industry. The Company did not formally adopt a named peer group for fiscal 2025, reflecting the transitional nature of the Company's first partial year as a public company, and expects to consider establishing a formal peer group for benchmarking compensation decisions in either fiscal 2026 or fiscal 2027.

Overview of Fiscal 2025 Compensation

Fiscal 2025 was the Company’s first partial year as a publicly traded company, having closed the Business Combination in July 2025. The compensation program for the NEOs reflects the transitional nature of that period. Base salaries of our NEOs were established under their Employment Agreements, the terms of which were negotiated prior to the closing of the Business Combination: Marc Nemati, President and Chief Executive Officer — $550,000; Matt Vittitow, Chief Operating Officer — $425,000; and Justin Hilty, Chief Financial Officer — $425,000. No formal annual incentive plan with pre-established quantitative performance goals was in place for fiscal 2025 and the NEOs’ Employment Agreements contain contractual provisions relating to annual discretionary bonuses, as described above.

Fiscal 2025 One-Time Discretionary Bonus Awards

In November 2025, the Compensation Committee approved one-time discretionary cash bonus awards to each NEO in recognition of their contributions during fiscal 2025. The Company’s listing required the named executive officers to simultaneously manage the operational demands of a growing business and the organizational requirements of becoming a public company — including financial reporting infrastructure, internal controls, investor relations, and governance practices — in a compressed timeframe and without the benefit of a full fiscal year.

In determining award amounts, the Compensation Committee considered each officer’s individual performance and leadership contributions, the successful build-out of the executive team and public-company infrastructure, and the overall financial and operational performance of the business. No formal bonus plan, binding performance formula, or pre-established payout schedule was applied to these awards. In determining award amounts, the Compensation Committee attributed greater weight to the Chief Executive Officer’s role given the disproportionate demands placed on that position during the Company’s transition to public company status, and his outsized contribution to the outcomes achieved during fiscal 2025. These awards are not intended to be indicative of the ongoing incentive compensation structure going forward.

Because each NEO commenced employment upon the closing of the Business Combination in July 2025, actual salary earned was prorated from each NEO’s respective start date through December 31, 2025. Awards were calculated by applying the applicable percentage determined by the Compensation Committee to each NEO’s actual prorated salary earned, reflecting the Compensation Committee’s view that each officer performed at the level of his full role throughout the period of employment.

The Company entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers, which provide for indemnification and advancements by the Company of certain expenses and costs under certain circumstances.

We have adopted a written Related Person Transaction Policy, which was approved by the Board on July 15, 2025 upon the closing of the Business Combination, that sets forth policies and procedures for the review, approval, and ratification of transactions involving “Related Persons.”

For purposes of the policy:

a “Related Person” includes any executive officer, director, or director nominee of the Company, any beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities, and the immediate family members of any such persons; and
a “Related Person Transaction” is defined as any transaction, arrangement, or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements, or relationships, in which the Company was or is to be a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and a Related Person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Under the policy, any proposed Related Person Transaction must be reported to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or General Counsel and is subject to review and prior approval by the Audit Committee before the transaction may be effected or consummated. If the Audit Committee becomes aware of a Related Person Transaction that was not previously reviewed, the Audit Committee may, in its discretion, ratify the transaction. In addition, any ongoing Related Person Transaction previously reviewed by the Audit Committee is subject to annual review to evaluate whether it should be permitted to continue.

Transactions involving compensation of executive officers or directors are reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (or by the full Board of Directors if no such committee has been appointed).

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

 

 

In evaluating a Related Person Transaction, the Audit Committee considers, among other factors, the Related Person’s interest in the transaction, the approximate dollar value of the transaction and of the Related Person’s interest therein, whether the transaction was undertaken in the ordinary course of business, whether the transaction was entered into on terms no less favorable to the Company than those that could have been reached with an unrelated third party, and the purpose of and potential benefits to the Company.

The Audit Committee may approve or ratify a Related Person Transaction only if it determines that, under all the circumstances, the transaction is in, or is not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and the Audit Committee is required to prohibit any Related Person Transaction that it determines to be inconsistent with the interests of the Company and its shareholders. No member of the Audit Committee may participate in the review of any transaction in which such member, any immediate family member of such member, or any significant shareholder with which such member is affiliated is the Related Person.

The Policy also identifies certain categories of transactions that are deemed not to create a material direct or indirect interest on behalf of the Related Person and are therefore excluded from the definition of Related Person Transaction, including, among others, transactions in which the Related Person’s interest arises solely from service as a director of, or from ownership of less than a 10% equity interest in, another entity that is a party to the transaction, pro rata benefits received as a holder of a class of the Company’s equity securities, executive officer compensation approved or recommended by the Compensation Committee, director compensation reportable under Item 402(k) of Regulation S-K, and transactions involving competitive bids or services rendered by common carriers or public utilities at rates fixed by law.

Beneficial Owners or Holders in Street Name

If, on April 24, 2026, your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, or similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and the proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the shareholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, or other nominee on how to vote the shares in your account. You should have received voting instructions with the proxy materials from that organization rather than from us. You should follow the instructions provided by that organization to submit your proxy. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the

shareholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the broker, bank, or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.

Quorum; Required Vote; Broker Non-Votes and Abstentions

The presence at the Annual Meeting, by means of remote communication or by proxy, of the holders of record of shares of common stock that would constitute a majority of the votes if all the issued and outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at such meeting were present and voted shall be necessary to constitute a quorum. Votes cast at the Annual Meeting will be tabulated by the election inspector appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will determine whether a quorum is present.

Assuming that a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of outstanding shares of stock present at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote shall be required to elect directors and to ratify the appointment of Weaver as the independent registered public accountant of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

Brokers, banks, or other nominees that hold shares of common stock in “street name” for a beneficial owner of those shares typically have the authority to vote in their discretion if permitted by the stock exchange or other organization of which they are members. Brokers, banks, and other nominees are permitted to vote the beneficial owner’s proxy in their own discretion as to certain “routine” proposals when they have not received instructions from the beneficial owner, such as the ratification of the appointment of Weaver as the independent registered public accountant of our company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. If a broker, bank, or other nominee votes such “uninstructed” shares for or against a “routine” proposal, those shares will be counted towards determining whether or not a quorum is present and are considered entitled to vote on the “routine” proposals. However, where a proposal is not “routine,” a broker, bank, or other nominee is not permitted to exercise its voting discretion on that proposal without specific instructions from the beneficial owner. These non-voted shares are referred to as “broker non-votes” when the nominee has voted on other non-routine matters with authorization or voted on routine matters. These shares will be counted towards determining whether or not a quorum is present, but will not be considered entitled to vote on the “non-routine” proposals.

Please note that brokers, banks, and other nominees may not use discretionary authority to vote shares on the election of directors. For your vote to be counted in the election of directors, you will need to communicate your voting decisions to your broker, bank, or other nominee before the date of the Annual Meeting.

Broker non-votes do not represent votes entitled to vote “for” or “against” a proposal and will have no effect on the election of directors or the proposal to ratify the appointment of Weaver as the independent registered public accountant of our company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, as each such proposal is determined by reference to the vote of a majority of the votes present and entitled to vote.

Where a proposal requires a majority of the votes present and entitled to vote, an abstention will have the same effect as a vote “against” that proposal. As such, an abstention for any of the proposals herein will be considered as a vote “against” such proposal.

THE ANNUAL MEETING, VOTING, AND OTHER INFORMATION

 

 

Voting of Proxies

When a proxy is properly executed and returned, the shares it represents will be voted at the Annual Meeting as directed. Except as provided above under “Quorum; Required Vote; Broker Non-Votes and Abstentions,” if no specification is indicated, the shares will be voted (1) “for” the election of each of the director nominees set forth in this proxy statement and (2) “for” the ratification of the appointment of Weaver as the independent registered public accountant of our company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. If any other matter is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the individuals specified in the proxy will vote your shares using their best judgment.

Revocability of Proxies

Any person giving a proxy may revoke the proxy at any time before its use by delivering to us either a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting virtually. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you specifically so request.

Solicitation

We will bear the cost of this solicitation. In addition, we may reimburse brokerage firms and other persons representing beneficial owners of shares for expenses incurred in forwarding solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. Proxies also may be solicited by certain of our directors and officers, personally or by telephone or e-mail, without additional compensation.

Annual Report and Other Matters

Our Annual Report, which was made available to shareholders with or preceding this proxy statement, contains financial and other information about our company, but is not incorporated into this proxy statement and is not to be considered a part of these proxy materials or subject to Regulations 14A or 14C or to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act.

The information contained in the “Report of the Audit Committee” shall not be deemed “filed” with the SEC, or subject to Regulations 14A or 14C or to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act. We will provide, without charge, a copy of our Annual Report as filed with the SEC to each shareholder of record as of the record date that requests a copy in writing. Any exhibits listed in our Annual Report also will be furnished upon request at the actual expense we incur in furnishing such exhibits. Any such requests should be directed to our Secretary at the address of our executive offices located at 200 East Beltline Road, Suite 403 Coppell, Texas 75019.

Deadline For Receipt of Shareholder Proposals

Deadline for the Submission of Shareholder Proposals for Inclusion in our Proxy Statement for our 2027 Annual Meeting

Deadline and Procedures under our Bylaws for Shareholder Notice of Nomination of Director Candidates and for Other Proposals

Our bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for shareholders who wish to nominate persons for election as a director or to introduce an item of other business at our 2027 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, but do not intend for such nominee or business to be included in our proxy statement. To be timely under these procedures, notice of such nomination or business related to our 2027 Annual Meeting of Shareholders must comply with the requirements in our bylaws and must be received by us (a) no earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting (by February 23, 2027) and no later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to such anniversary (by March 25, 2027); or (b) if our 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders is advanced or delayed by more than 30 days from such anniversary date, no earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and no later than the close of business on the later of (i) the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or (ii) the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Company. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a shareholder’s notice.

 

In addition to the requirements contained in our bylaws, to comply with the universal proxy rules, shareholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than our nominees at the 2027 Annual Meeting must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than April 24, 2027 (the 60th day prior to the first anniversary of the annual meeting for the preceding year’s annual meeting).

Householding of Proxy Materials

We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, service providers that deliver our communications to shareholders may deliver a single copy of our Notice of Internet Availability or Proxy Statement to multiple shareholders sharing the same address, unless one or more of these shareholders notifies us that they wish to continue receiving individual copies. Shareholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate notices and/or proxy cards. This householding procedure reduces our printing costs and postage fees.

We will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of our Notice of Internet Availability, Proxy Statement or Proxy Card, as applicable, to a shareholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered. Please contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company at (800) 509-5586 or in writing at Continental Stock Transfer & Trust,1 State Street, 30th Floor,New York, NY 10004-1561, Attention: Householding Department to request a separate copy of our Notice of Internet Availability, Proxy Statement or Proxy Card.

If you are eligible for householding, but you and other shareholders with whom you share an address currently receive multiple copies of our annual reports, proxy statements and/or notices of internet availability of proxy materials, or if you hold stock in more than one account, and in either case you wish to receive only a single copy of our Proxy Statement or Notice of Internet Availability for your household, please contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company at (800) 509-5586 or in writing at Continental Stock Transfer & Trust, 1 State Street, 30th Floor, New York, NY 10004-1561, Attention: Householding Department.

Other Matters

We know of no other matters to be submitted to the Annual Meeting. If any other matters properly come before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote the shares they represent as our Board of Directors may recommend.
