Exhibit 99.1

 

TON Strategy Company Approves $250 Million Stock Repurchase Program After Ticker Change

 

Open-ended stock repurchase program unanimously approved by the board
Aims to create shareholder value by growing Net Asset Value per Share (NAV/share), including in times of heightened volatility

 

LAS VEGAS, September 3, 2025 – TON Strategy Company (formerly Verb Technology Company Inc.) (Nasdaq: TONX) (the “Company”), a digital asset treasury company committed to holding Toncoin ($TON), today announced that its Board of Directors has unanimously approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $250 million of its common stock.

 

Under the program, repurchases may be made from time to time in open market transactions or through other means in accordance with applicable securities laws. The timing, number of shares of common stock repurchased, and price will depend on a variety of factors including liquidity, market conditions, share price, and other considerations. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

“We are committed to a disciplined capital allocation strategy and look to use our balance sheet to enhance shareholder value by growing NAV/share,” said Manuel Stotz, Executive Chairman of the Company. “Subject to market conditions, among other factors, if the stock trades at a premium to NAV, the company may consider issuing stock to buy $TON. Conversely, the company may consider repurchasing its own stock if it trades at a discount to NAV. The repurchase program provides us with a tool to enable us to do so.”

 

Formerly Verb Technology Company, TON Strategy Company began trading as TONX on the Nasdaq Capital Market on September 2, 2025, following its renaming. The name change and ticker symbol transition marked a further milestone in the Company’s shift into a dedicated digital asset treasury strategy focused on $TON.

 

The Company’s approach is to accumulate $TON and provide public market investors with an opportunity to strengthen and secure the TON ecosystem. TON is the only blockchain natively integrated at scale inside a global social platform, powering wallets, payments, and applications across Telegram. It also serves as a developer platform, with a growing community building apps, services, and games that benefit from Telegram’s far-reaching distribution of over 1 billion monthly active users. The Company believes that this unique integration positions TON as one of the most compelling projects at the intersection of crypto and social media, and itself as a significant infrastructure provider within the network.

 

About TON Strategy Company

 

TON Strategy Company (Nasdaq: TONX) is focused on the accumulation of Toncoin ($TON) for long-term investment, whether acquired through deployment of proceeds from capital raising transactions, staking rewards or via open market purchases. The Company aims to steadily expand its $TON treasury, stake $TON and to support the development of a tokenized economy inside Telegram’s billion-user platform.

 

In addition, the Company continues to operate legacy business units, including MARKET.live, a multi-vendor livestream shopping platform, and LyveCom, an AI-powered social commerce innovator that enables brands and merchants to deliver omnichannel livestream shopping experiences across websites, apps, and social platforms.
