The information furnished pursuant to this Item 7.01 (including Exhibit 99.1) shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

**Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements** 

Certain statements herein and the documents incorporated herein by reference may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Rule 175 promulgated thereunder, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, and Rule 3b-6 promulgated thereunder, which statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the outlook and expectations of Strive and the Company, respectively, with respect to the proposed transaction, the strategic benefits and financial benefits of the proposed transaction, including the expected impact of the proposed transaction on the combined company's future financial performance (including anticipated accretion to earnings per share, the tangible book value earn-back period and other operating and return metrics), the timing of the closing of the proposed transaction, and the ability to successfully integrate the combined businesses. Such statements are often characterized by the use of qualified words (and their derivatives) such as "may," "will," "anticipate," "could," "should," "would," "believe," "contemplate," "expect," "estimate," "continue," "plan," "project," "predict," "potential," "assume," "forecast," "target," "budget," "outlook," "trend," "guidance," "objective," "goal," "strategy," "opportunity," and "intend," as well as words of similar meaning or other statements concerning opinions or judgment of Strive, the Company or their respective management about future events. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions as of the time they are made and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence, which could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties and assumptions, include, among others, the following:

● the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the Merger Agreement between Strive, the Company and the other parties thereto;

● the possibility that the proposed transaction does not close when expected or at all because the conditions to closing are not received or satisfied on a timely basis or at all;

● the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Strive or the Company or the combined company;

● the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including anticipated cost savings and strategic gains, are not realized when expected or at all, including as a result of changes in, or problems arising from, general economic and market conditions, interest and exchange rates, monetary policy, laws and regulations and their enforcement, and the degree of competition in the geographic and business areas in which Strive or the Company operate;

● the possibility that the integration of the two companies may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected;

● the possibility that the proposed transaction may be more expensive or take longer to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events;

● the diversion of management's attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities;

● potential adverse reactions of Strive's or the Company's customers or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed transaction;

● changes in the Company's share price before closing; and

● other factors that may affect future results of Strive, the Company or the combined company.

These factors are not necessarily all of the factors that could cause Strive's, the Company's or the combined company's actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any of the forward-looking statements. Other factors, including unknown or unpredictable factors, also could harm Strive's, the Company's or the combined company's results.

Although each of Strive and the Company believes that its expectations with respect to forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its existing knowledge of its business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results of Strive or the Company will not differ materially from any projected future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in the Company's most recent annual report on [Form 10-K](https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0001920406/000121390025026431/ea0235693-10k_assetenti.htm) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other documents subsequently filed by the Company with the SEC. The actual results anticipated may not be realized or, even if substantially realized, they may not have the expected consequences to or effects on Strive, the Company or their respective businesses or operations. Investors are cautioned not to rely too heavily on any such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and Strive and the Company undertake no obligation to update or clarify these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable law.

## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Asset Entities' Shareholders Approve<br> Merger with Strive**<br> ***Approval paves the way for Strive, Inc. to launch a leading public Bitcoin Treasury Company under ticker symbol ASST.***

**DALLAS, September 9, 2025 – Asset Entities Inc. ("Asset Entities" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: ASST)** today announced that its stockholders have voted to approve the previously announced merger with Strive Enterprises, Inc. ("Strive"), whose stockholders approved the transaction on September 4, 2025. The approval, which was supported by a strong majority of Asset Entities' shareholders, marks the next step in creating a leading public Bitcoin Treasury Company.

The closing of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the clearance by The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC of the Company's listing application, subject to official notice of issuance. Upon the completion of the merger, the combined company will be renamed Strive, Inc. and continue to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol ASST. The combined company will be led by Matt Cole, as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. Asset Entities President and CEO Arshia Sarkhani will serve as Chief Marketing Officer and as a member of the Board of Directors.

"This shareholder approval is a defining moment in our mission to build a world-class Bitcoin Treasury Company," said Mr. Cole. "Through our reverse-merger structure, zero debt profile, and $750 million PIPE, we are uniquely positioned relative to peers to execute our strategy and maximize Bitcoin per share for investors. Our focus is on disciplined, long-term strategies designed to outperform Bitcoin itself over time and create perpetual shareholder value."

"We are gratified that our stockholders have voted to approve this merger," added Mr. Sarkhani. "This vote, we believe, opens the door to building one of the biggest and most successful Bitcoin Treasury Companies, and providing maximum value to our legacy shareholders."

Concurrent with the merger closing, the Company expects to consummate a private placement financing (PIPE) that is anticipated to result in aggregate gross proceeds of more than $750 million, with an additional $750 million potentially available upon the exercise of warrants issued in the PIPE, for potential aggregate gross proceeds of over $1.5 billion.
