AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Digital Brands Group, Inc. (“DBG” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: DBGI), a publicly traded company specializing in apparel and e-commerce, today announced that following its 1-for-40 stock consolidation, the Company reports an increase in its secured U.S. Program to $165 million, a 32% increase. This expansion is driven by the addition of new apparel and footwear categories.

Based on the Company’s consolidated post-split share structure of approximately 575,000 common shares outstanding, this expanded program represents approximately $286 in revenue per share based on the total value of the U.S Program.

This calculation is strictly limited to the U.S. Program and does not include any future revenue contributions from additional channels, including the collegiate program, expanded partnerships with GCC, or incremental revenues generated via the e-commerce scaling strategies of the Company's newly appointed Chief Digital Board Member.

The Company plans to file an official Form 8-K regarding this operational update with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) later today.

“As we stated in our official Form 8-K filed April 30, 2026 outlining the GCC partnership and the U.S. Program, we believed that our partnership represented the beginning of a much broader commercial opportunity,” said Hil Davis, CEO of Digital Brands Group. “This additional $40 million in revenue is entirely new and incremental to the Company’s previous financial guidance presented in its official Form 8-K filing issued on May 12, 2026.”

Regulatory Compliance & Settlement Tracking Notice

To ensure fair, orderly trading and protect shareholder equity, the Company, alongside its legal counsel at Christian Attar and ShareIntel, is continuously monitoring all clearinghouse ledger discrepancies. A routine forensic data audit is actively reviewing targeted volume anomalies, Fails-to-Deliver (FTDs), and settlement transactions routed through offshore intra-clearing networks.

This operational tracking is explicitly isolating cross-border settlement balances between the Company’s primary NASDAQ listing (DBGI) and its secondary European listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Ticker: S8W; WKN: A3CQ98).

The Company is committed to transparent market dynamics and will continue to compile and submit its verified data tracking packages directly to domestic and international exchange compliance departments, regulatory oversight divisions, and institutional clearing intermediaries to support continuous data integrity and orderly cross-border settlement close-outs.
