Datavault AI to acquire CyberCatch for $94.5M in all-cash deal

The purchase folds AI-driven compliance scoring and quantum-resistant encryption into a data-monetization platform chasing $200M in 2026 revenue.

• Datavault AI (NASDAQ: DVLT) signed a definitive agreement to buy CyberCatch Holdings for $94.5 million in cash, valuing its roughly 26.8 million shares at $3.53 apiece.
• CyberCatch is a San Diego cybersecurity firm listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (CYBE) and OTCQB (CYBHF); founder and CEO Sai Huda will become subsidiary president reporting to Datavault CEO Nathaniel Bradley.
• The deal is structured as a court-approved plan of arrangement under British Columbia's Business Corporations Act, with dilutive securities settled on a cashless-exercise basis, pending board, exchange, shareholder and regulatory sign-off.
• CyberCatch's AI platform continuously simulates attacker behavior to generate a Cyber Hygiene Score and a Cyber Breach Score, and its patent-pending attribute-based encryption is being adapted to resist quantum-computing attacks.
• The companies cited CrowdStrike research showing AI-enabled adversary attacks rose 89% in 2025, while the average time from intrusion to data exfiltration fell to just 29 minutes.
• The purchase follows a string of 2026 moves by Datavault, including acquiring BankWyse for a Wyoming bank charter and a network alliance with Available Networks, as it reiterates a $200 million revenue target for the year.
• It shows publicly traded infrastructure companies buying small compliance-and-testing specialists outright to bolt automated security into their platforms as attacker breakout times shrink to minutes.
