NEW YORK, May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Creatd, Inc. (OTC:CRTD) has executed a binding Letter of Intent ("LOI") to acquire 25% of PCG Advisory, Inc., 25% of its two related companies, PRISM Media Holdings and PRISM MediaWire, and 20% of an affiliated technology start-up AIRHub, (collectively, the "PCG Companies"), in a collective $2.3 million all-stock transaction.

Strategic Rationale
The purchase supports Creatd's broader strategy of utilizing technology to unify data, governance, and investor engagement into a single platform for public companies.

"With the purchase of a 25% interest in PCG Advisory & its two related companies, as well as a 20% stake a related technology start-up, we continue to execute on our vision of providing best-in-class investor engagement tools and services that empower small-cap companies and their investors," said Jeremy Frommer, Chairman & CEO of Creatd. "PCG's deep expertise in investor relations and social media, combined with Creatd's AI-powered capabilities, creates an ecosystem that bridges the gap between companies, particularly in the microcap space, and retail investor awareness."
