We are investigating the fairness of the proposed sale of Green Dot Corporation (NYSE: GDOT) (“Green Dot”) in a complex transaction with Smith Ventures and CommerceOne Financial Corporation (“CommerceOne”) under which Green Dot stockholders will receive $8.11 per share in cash and 0.2215 shares of a new publicly traded bank holding company that will own CommerceOne’s and Green Dot’s existing banking businesses. Smith Ventures will acquire and privatize Green Dot’s non-bank financial technology business assets and operations, which will continue running as an independent fintech and embedded finance company.
On a conference call on November 24, 2025, after the deal was announced, Green Dot’s CFO estimated that Green Dot shareholders are receiving value of approximately $14.23 per share.
