CognoGroup Spin-Off Update
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / October 18, 2024 / Nixxy (NASDAQ:NIXX) is moving forward with its previously announced plans to consolidate several of its assets and liabilities into Atlantic Energy Solutions (OTC:AESO), which is planned to be renamed CognoGroup ("CognoGroup"). As part of this restructuring, Nixxy will distribute shares of CognoGroup to eligible shareholders, aligning with its strategy to streamline operations and potentially unlock shareholder value.
CognoGroup will focus on AI-driven projects aimed at enhancing human potential. Its core areas of focus include Work, Personal Growth, Wellness, Finance, and Creativity, sectors where AI and intelligent technologies can make meaningful advancements in people's lives.
After the planned spin-out, CognoGroup's portfolio will include several AI-driven ventures designed to empower individuals and industries. These businesses include CandidatePitch, an automated talent marketing tool; Mediabistro, a media industry job board; AI Exchange, a community with over one million members focused on AI discussions; and PrimeGPU, an early-stage venture currently in stealth mode.
As these businesses are still in development, they carry the inherent risks of early-stage ventures, which investors should carefully consider. While CognoGroup is committed to driving innovation and growth, these ventures face uncertainties typical of emerging companies, and potential investors are encouraged to evaluate the associated risks thoroughly before making any investment decisions.
The spin-out is proceeding following a unanimous vote by Nixxy's Board of Directors. Investors representing approximately 75% of Nixxy's outstanding shares have verbally waived participation in the distribution of the spin-out shares. This exclusion benefits other shareholders by preserving equity allocation.
The record date for shareholders eligible to receive CognoGroup shares is tentatively set for October 28, 2024. This date is not yet finalized, and shareholders should await official confirmation. Additional details will be provided as they become available. The anticipated share distribution date is estimated to be approximately January 15, 2025, contingent on registrations, regulatory approvals, and other conditions. It is important to note that shares sold short prior to the record date will require the short seller to deliver the distributed spin-off shares to the buyer of the shorted shares.

Risk Factors
Investors should carefully consider the risks associated with Nixxy's business and the spin-out transaction. Investing in Atlantic Energy Solutions, soon to be renamed CognoGroup (OTC: AESO), carries significant risks. As a company undergoing strategic changes with a limited operating history, CognoGroup's financial outlook and operations are subject to substantial uncertainty. Additionally, OTC-listed securities often have less liquidity, higher volatility, and fewer publicly available details compared to exchanges like the NYSE or NASDAQ. This may increase the risk profile for potential investors.
It is essential to understand that the information provided is not an endorsement or recommendation for investment. Investors are strongly urged to conduct thorough due diligence, review all disclosures and filings available on the OTC Markets website, and consult with a qualified financial or legal advisor to assess whether investing in CognoGroup aligns with their financial goals and risk tolerance.
The waiver of participation by certain investors is based on their own strategic considerations and should not be interpreted as a reflection of CognoGroup's future performance or valuation.
Remember that all investments carry risk, including the potential loss of principal. Investing in smaller or emerging companies like CognoGroup may involve heightened risks and uncertainties.
