LivePerson urges shareholders to back SoundHound merger ahead of Aug. 20 vote
  • LivePerson’s board urged shareholders to vote “FOR” its pending acquisition by SoundHound AI ahead of an Aug. 20 special meeting.
  • Proxy advisers ISS, Glass Lewis backed the board’s recommendation, raising pressure on holders as the vote approaches.
  • Deal requires approval from a majority of all outstanding shares, so non-votes effectively count as “AGAINST”.
  • Merger consideration valued at about $3.33 per share as of April 21, 2026, described as a 22% premium to the prior 30-day VWAP.
  • Board warned a failed vote could leave shareholders exposed to debt and Nasdaq listing risks, including a potential reorganization with no equity value.
