Ancora Issues Presentation Regarding its Intention to Withhold Support for Four Directors at Everbridge’s Upcoming Annual Meeting

Intends to Withhold Support for Chairman Jaime Ellertson and Three Long-Tenured Directors Who Should Be Held Accountable for Abysmal Capital Allocation, Compensation Decisions and Corporate Oversight

Presentation Highlights Mr. Ellertson’s Questionable Track Record and Alarming Conflicts of Interest, Including his Apparent Poaching of Company Executives to his Venture Capital Firm

CLEVELAND--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ancora Holdings Group, LLC ("Ancora"), a significant stockholder of Everbridge, Inc. (NASDAQ: EVBG) (“Everbridge” or the “Company”), today issued a presentation that details its rationale for withholding support for four current members of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) at the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). A downloadable PDF of the presentation can be found above.

Fredrick D. DiSanto, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Ancora, and James Chadwick, President of Ancora Alternatives LLC, commented:

“We believe all of our fellow stockholders should know why Ancora intends to withhold support for four incumbents – Chairman Jaime Ellertson, Bruns Grayson, Richard D’Amore and Kent Mathy – at the Company’s Annual Meeting. In our view, these long-tenured Board members have presided over abysmal stockholder returns, concerning conflicts of interest, dismal capital allocation and governance, and a variety of value-destructive missteps. The declines in Everbridge’s stock price in recent years appear to make this argument irrefutable. More recently, these individuals have dismissed our feedback and resisted exploring strategic alternatives that we believe are readily available to the Company. This is particularly appalling when considering that our analysis suggests a sale of the Company to a well-capitalized acquirer could deliver more than $70 per share or a more than 50% premium to current trading prices.¹ It is clearly time for Mr. Ellertson and his long-time boardroom allies to be held accountable.”
