LOS ANGELES, June 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trillerverz LLC (Triller Holdings, LLC), the AI-powered open garden platform for creators, announced its plan to pursue a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a registration statement on Form S-1 to issue a direct listing and an initial public offering (IPO).
Upon approval by the SEC and Nasdaq stock market (“NASDAQ”), Triller is expected to be listed under the new ticker symbol “ILLR.” by September, subject to market conditions.
"The current market demands clear and disciplined thinking. After much deliberation, Triller has determined that the best course of action is a direct listing for Triller," said Mahi de Silva, Triller's Chief Executive Officer. "A Triller IPO is a cleaner transaction, allowing us greater control of our destiny. Today's news is a clear commitment to our effort to build the world's best platform for creators; artists, influencers, athletes, thought-leaders, and brands. The Triller IPO will be the largest creator IPO in history.”
Triller is responding to higher than expected demand for its convertible debt offering and a clear preference to go public via a direct listing from its current and future shareholders.
