Better Home Finance特别委员会发布AI代理分析，敦促股东拒绝前CEO Vishal Garg的董事罢免委托

All Four Leading AI Models Reviewed by Proxyanalyst Conclude Shareholders Should Support Better’s Special Committee and Reject Mr. Garg’s Consent Solicitation
Independent Analysis Raises Concerns Regarding Garg’s Track Record, Conduct and Credibility
NEW YORK, NY — August 31, 2026 —
The Special Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Special Committee”) of Better Home & Finance Holding Company (NASDAQ: BETR) (“Better” or the “Company”) today highlighted the findings of an independent analysis of the consent solicitation being conducted by the Company’s former CEO, Vishal Garg.
Proxyanalyst, an independent, AI-driven proxy analysis service, instructed four leading AI models—Claude, Gemini, Grok and OpenAI—to review the proxy materials of Better and Mr. Garg and other relevant data and generate analyses and conclusions. All four models concluded that Better shareholders should reject Mr. Garg’s self-serving effort to remove five of the eight members of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), replace them with his hand-picked candidates and return himself to a leadership role at the Company.
The full Proxyanalyst analysis, which indicated “Strong” confidence in the conclusion that shareholders should reject Mr. Garg’s campaign, can be read

In reaching their determinations, the AI models highlighted the significant risk if Mr. Garg were to succeed in removing a majority of Better’s Board without identifying a single replacement director, giving him virtually unfettered control over Better.
The AI model analyses reviewed by Proxyanalyst also noted the following:
Mr. Garg’s record as CEO significantly undermines his case for returning to power. Better generated substantial net losses during Mr. Garg’s tenure and the Company’s stock price declined significantly following its 2023 de-SPAC transaction.
Mr. Garg’s proposal could create significant governance and Nasdaq compliance risks.
Mr. Garg’s conduct during his campaign, including his misrepresentation of shareholder support for his consent solicitation, raises further concerns regarding his credibility.
Better’s current path provides shareholders with a more credible opportunity to create long-term value.
The Special Committee issued the following statement:
The Proxyanalyst conclusion and the unanimity of the independent AI models reinforce our conviction that Mr. Garg’s campaign is not in the best interests of the Company or its shareholders. Mr. Garg is asking shareholders to take an extraordinary and destructive action without providing them with the most basic information necessary to make an informed decision about the future of the Company.
Mr. Garg led Better for more than a decade and had every opportunity to achieve consistent profitability and create value for shareholders, but he failed to do so. It is time for Better to move forward. We believe our shareholders, employees, customers and partners deserve stability, transparency and a thoughtful transition to the Company’s next generation of leadership—not another period of uncertainty and disruption.
The Special Committee urges Better shareholders NOT to sign or return Mr. Garg’s Green consent card. Shareholders who have previously signed or returned a Green consent card can revoke that consent by signing, dating and returning the Company’s
WHITE
Consent Revocation Card.
