Toby Neugebauer to Host Presentation Defining
Path to Maximizing Value for All Fermi Shareholders
Webinar will be on Thursday, May 21 at 4:00
PM CT/5:00 PM ET/10:00 PM BST
Shareholders and interested parties are invited
to attend
DALLAS, May 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ --

Toby Neugebauer, co-founder and largest shareholder of Fermi Inc. (“Fermi” or the “Company”), today announced he will deliver a presentation clearly defining an optimal 75-day plan to maximize value for all Fermi shareholders on Thursday, May 21, 2026, at 4:00 PM CT/5:00 PM ET/10:00 PM BST.
“Project Matador is a world-class, highly
desirable asset with a share price that is disconnected from the value my team and I built over the last year. Shareholders deserve to
understand all available paths to maximizing that value. Unfortunately, Fermi’s current cost of capital requires a dual-path process that I believe must include a full-market-value sale or strategic partnership. As stated, I believe the best partners would have a lower cost of capital, expertise and experience in constructing a project of this magnitude, and be a customer, or have one at the table.
The election of my proposed highly qualified
*independent slate of Board directors, along with my current appointed directors — former Fermi CFO, Miles Everson, and Chief Power Officer, Larry Kellerman — would give shareholders a new Board majority focused on pursuing all value-maximizing options for the Company, while restoring proper governance and protecting shareholder rights. The owners of Fermi must decide its future,”*said Toby
Neugebauer.

Board is Committed to Acting in the Best Interests of Fermi Shareholders and Cites Strong Momentum Behind Fermi 2.0
DALLAS, May 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Fermi Inc. (NASDAQ: FRMI) (LSE: FRMI), operating as Fermi America™ ("Fermi" or the "Company"), today announced that on May 15, 2026, it filed a preliminary Consent Revocation Statement (the "Revocation Statement") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Revocation Statement responds to former Chief Executive Officer Toby Neugebauer's preliminary consent solicitation, in which Mr. Neugebauer is seeking to solicit shareholder consents to hold a Special Meeting of Shareholders ("Special Meeting") on or about June 30, 2026. Fermi's Revocation Statement provides specific reasons why Mr. Neugebauer's proposals are not in the best interests of Fermi shareholders, including information regarding his removal as CEO and subsequent termination for cause by an Independent Committee of the Board. 
The Board issued the following statement:
The Fermi leadership team is executing on a well-defined plan that it believes will maximize shareholder value. The Board has overseen the Company's evolution into its next phase of growth, advancing Fermi 2.0 and Project Matador, while driving progress across key construction, regulatory and financing milestones.
The Board is committed to evaluating all transactions that could maximize long-term value for shareholders, but it will not be forced into a short-sighted decision that benefits only Mr. Neugebauer and his affiliates at the expense of all others who experienced significant losses under his tenure as CEO.
After careful consideration and consultation with independent financial and legal advisors, an Independent Committee of the Board unanimously concluded that the Special Meeting solicitation launched by Mr. Neugebauer is not in the best interests of the Company or its shareholders. As detailed in the Company's preliminary Consent Revocation, our recommendation for shareholders is based on the following considerations:
Fermi 2.0 is delivering tangible results. As the management team described on its May 14, 2026 earnings call, which was well received by the financial community, interest has accelerated under the recent leadership changes. Fermi is also seeing increased engagement with investors and partners, reinforcing confidence in the Company's strategy and its ability to deliver long-term shareholder value.

Project Matador continues to advance with clear visibility toward power delivery, and the Company, in partnership with a leading executive search firm, is actively conducting a search for a highly qualified CEO to lead its next phase of growth. The Company has secured nearly $1.0 billion in financing commitments, established over $1.4 billion in infrastructure positioning it to execute its near-term plan, and taken steps to strengthen its capital structure by replacing high-cost debt with more favorable equipment financing.

Mr. Neugebauer's record as CEO raises significant concerns regarding his leadership and ability to execute. During his tenure, Fermi's stock declined more than 80% from its IPO, driven principally by the absence of a signed tenant.

Mr. Neugebauer's employment was ultimately terminated for cause. The Board removed Mr. Neugebauer as CEO on April 17, 2026, and he was subsequently terminated for cause by an Independent Committee of the Board. The Independent Committee terminated Mr. Neugebauer for cause due to his misrepresentations to the Board, public communications inconsistent with his fiduciary duties and a pattern of conduct in violation of Company policies. Additionally, his behavior as CEO created disruption to operations and presented a significant threat to meaningful relationships with key stakeholders at a pivotal time in the Company's growth trajectory.

Mr. Neugebauer's proposals are designed to force a sale at a price that is far below Fermi's intrinsic value. The Board and management team believe that an immediate sale would not be in the best interests of shareholders and could result in a value-destructive outcome, primarily benefiting Mr. Neugebauer and his affiliates, who received their stock pre-IPO for consideration at less than $0.01 per share, while locking in substantial losses for Fermi's public shareholders. His cost basis and that of public shareholders would not be aligned in such a transaction, and the Independent Committee will not support a forced sale at depressed trading levels.

Certain critical commercial counterparties have made clear that Fermi's path forward depends on stable leadership and governance. During Mr. Neugebauer's tenure, he damaged relationships with certain business partners, with more than one counterparty threatening to terminate its agreement with Fermi as a result of Mr. Neugebauer's conduct. Counterparties also conditioned their willingness to continue to do business with Fermi on Mr. Neugebauer no longer being an executive or exerting control over the Company. Additional counterparties, including potential institutional investors and private infrastructure funds, have similarly conditioned their willingness to conduct future business with the Company on assurances that Mr. Neugebauer would not destabilize Fermi's governance or operations. Since his termination, these partners have communicated increased confidence in Fermi. The Board believes the return of Mr. Neugebauer to control the Company would put those relationships at risk.
In recent public statements, Mr. Neugebauer has continued to suggest that a Special Meeting will be held on May 29, 2026, despite the Company's prior disclosure that such meeting was not validly called and has been cancelled in accordance with the Company's bylaws. Mr. Neugebauer is now calling for a second Special Meeting through a consent solicitation process for the same purpose of taking control of the Board in a single election with his hand-picked nominees in a manner designed to circumvent the governance structure that he approved and which is intended to promote stable governance. Should he secure control of the Board, Mr. Neugebauer may fundamentally alter Fermi's strategic direction by forcing a rapid sale at a depressed valuation without the support of a broad base of Fermi shareholders.
The Company's preliminary Revocation Statement is subject to the SEC review process, and solicitation of consent forms or consent revocations is not permitted prior to completion of this process.
Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP and Vinson & Elkins L.L.P. are serving as legal counsel to the Company. Fermi has also retained Alex Spiro of Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan to assist with certain litigation matters.

Just a bit of a fun post, but i’m also curious on what the consensus is in this group. Toby is still pushing hard for a shareholder vote for a fast sale of the company.

If you would like to see fermi continue to execute its business plan laid out today, like the post.

If you want a sale of the company now, comment sell company.
