LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LogicMark, Inc. (Nasdaq: LGMK) (the “Company” or “LogicMark”), a provider of personal emergency response systems (PERS), health communications devices, and technology for the growing care economy, today announces that the leading independent proxy advisory firms, Glass Lewis & Co. ("Glass Lewis") and Institutional Shareholder Services ("ISS"), have each recommended that LogicMark shareholders vote "FOR" select proxy proposals at the Company's annual meeting scheduled to be held on August 25, 2022. The Company's Board of Directors has also unanimously recommended that shareholders vote "FOR" each proxy proposal.
In its August 2022 report, Glass Lewis endorsed the proposals recommending LogicMark shareholders elect the Company’s directors, ratify the Company’s selection of BPM as auditor and approve the Company’s reincorporation from Delaware to Nevada. ISS endorsed the Company’s proxy proposals recommending that LogicMark shareholders ratify the Company’s selection of BPM as auditor, approve the reincorporation from Delaware to Nevada and recommended a vote “For” 4 out of 5 of the Company’s directors.
“We welcome the support of these two leading independent proxy advisory firms, whose recommendations are well respected by institutional investors” said Chia-Lin Simmons, Chief Executive Officer of LogicMark. “Both Glass Lewis and ISS recognize that our reincorporating to Nevada and selecting BPM as our auditor would serve our company and our shareholders well. The Board of Directors and I urge shareholders to vote “for” all annual meeting proposals, which we believe will drive continued execution, strong management and Board of Director leadership, as a result of partnering with the most qualified auditor for our needs and incorporating in the most advantageous jurisdiction to reduce operating costs and simplify while continuing to strengthen our corporate governance. These pivotal elements of our proxy proposals require your support as the means to further strengthen LogicMark and position the Company for lasting shareholder value creation.”
All votes are important, regardless of the number of shares owned. Shareholders as of the annual meeting record date, June 28, 2022, will be entitled to vote at the annual meeting. Please take the time to vote your LogicMark shares today. Without your support, we believe it will be more challenging to move the Company forward. Shareholders are encouraged to read about the proposals in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 30, 2022 (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”). Even if you sold your LogicMark shares since June 28, 2022, you still have the right to vote on the important proposals in the Definitive Proxy Statement.
