Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Flexsteel Industries, Inc. (FLXS) asks shareholders to elect Jeanne McGovern, Terence P. Calloway and Anand S. Kangala as directors and to approve, on an advisory basis, named executive officer compensation at its virtual annual meeting on December 9, 2026. The say-on-pay vote is non-binding, and the company plans to hold advisory compensation votes annually until its next vote on voting frequency. There were 4,162,413 common shares outstanding as of the October 12, 2026 record date.

On April 26, 2026, Flexsteel repurchased 1,279,870 shares for an aggregate purchase price of $60.2 million from F. Brooks Bertsch, then a director, and certain members of his immediate family; Bertsch resigned from the board effective April 28, 2026. Fiscal 2026 reported total compensation was $2,469,412 for CEO Derek P. Schmidt, $1,174,463 for Chief Growth Officer David E. Crimmins and $924,428 for CFO Michael J. Ressler. The company reports a weighted-average total of 180% of target for fiscal 2026 cash-incentive performance.

Filing Explained

At June 30, 2026, Flexsteel listed 583,258 securities issuable under outstanding awards and 90,634 shares available for future issuance under approved plans.

The December 9, 2026 meeting is pending: the three Class I nominees with the highest “FOR” votes will be elected, while say-on-pay requires a majority of shares present and entitled to vote and is nonbinding.

At June 30, 2026, the equity-plan table listed 583,258 securities issuable upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants and rights, and 90,634 shares available for future issuance under shareholder-approved plans. These are potential issuance figures, not shares already issued; issuing additional shares increases total share count and reduces existing holders’ percentage ownership absent offsetting changes.

say-on-pay regulatory
"commonly referred to as a “say-on-pay” vote"
A say-on-pay is a shareholder vote that gives investors a chance to approve or disapprove a company’s executive compensation packages, typically held at annual meetings. It matters because the vote signals investor satisfaction with how leaders are paid—like customers rating how well managers are rewarded—and can push boards to change pay plans, reducing governance risk and affecting investor confidence and stock value even though the vote is usually advisory rather than legally binding.
compensation actually paid financial
"“compensation actually paid” (or “CAP”)"
restricted stock units financial
"restricted stock units to executive officers under the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan"
Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
beneficially owned financial
"shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned by the Company’s directors"
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.
plurality regulatory
"affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares"

The Company will pay the cost of the solicitation of proxies.
The mailing address of the corporate office and principal executive office of the Company is 385 Bell St, Dubuque, Iowa 52001-7004. The approximate date on which this proxy statement and accompanying proxy card are first available to shareholders is October 23, 2026.
Meeting Purposes
At the meeting, shareholders will elect three Class I Directors, Jeanne McGovern, Terence P. Calloway and Anand S. Kangala for three-year terms expiring at the shareholders’ meeting in 2029. In addition, the Board is asking the shareholders to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers. We do not expect that any other business, except for routine or procedural matters, will be brought up at the meeting. If any other business is properly brought up at the meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will have authority to vote on these matters at their discretion.
Proxy Materials Available on Internet
In an effort to reduce the cost of delivering the proxy materials to our shareholders, we are making the materials available to our shareholders on the internet. On or about October 23, 2026, we sent shareholders a one-page “Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials,” which included instructions on how to access our proxy materials on the Internet. The proxy materials, consisting of this proxy statement and our fiscal 2026 annual report to shareholders, are available at www.proxyvote.com. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials also provides instructions on how to vote your shares. By making the materials available through the internet, we expect to reduce our costs, conserve natural resources, and expedite the delivery of the proxy materials. However, if you prefer to receive hard copies of the proxy materials, please follow the instructions included on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials.
Voting
Only shareholders of record at the close of business on October 12, 2026, the record date, will be eligible to vote. There is only one class of stock entitled to vote at the meeting, our common stock, $1.00 par value, of which there were 4,162,413 shares outstanding on the record date. A quorum, which is a majority of the outstanding shares, is needed to conduct a meeting. Each share is entitled to one vote for each director position; cumulative voting is not available. We encourage you to vote by telephone or on the internet. If your shares are held in your name, you can vote by telephone or on the internet by following the instructions on the proxy card or as explained in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. If you are a beneficial holder with your shares held in the name of your broker, bank, or other financial institution, you will receive telephone or internet voting instructions from the institution. If you received a paper copy of the proxy materials, you may vote your shares by signing and dating each proxy card you received and returning the cards in the enclosed envelope. The proxies will be voted according to your directions on the proxy card. If you return a signed card without specifying your vote, your shares will be voted:
•
FOR the election of Jeanne McGovern, Terence P. Calloway and Anand S. Kangala (Proposal I); and
•
FOR approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers (Proposal II);
If you sign and return your proxy card, your shares will be voted on any other business that properly comes before the meeting as determined by the persons named in the proxy. We urge you to sign, date, and return your proxy card promptly, or vote by telephone or on the internet, even if you plan to attend the virtual meeting via live webcast. If you
1

do attend the virtual meeting, you will be able to vote your shares at the meeting even if you previously signed a proxy card or voted by telephone or on the internet. However, if you hold your shares in street name you must request a legal proxy from your broker or nominee to vote in person at the virtual meeting.
Shares Held by Broker
If you hold your shares through a broker, bank, or other financial institution, you will receive your proxy materials and voting instructions from the institution. Your broker, bank, or financial institution will not vote your shares for any of the proposals without your specific instructions. To ensure your vote is counted, you must provide directions to your broker, bank, or financial institution by following its instructions.
Changing Your Vote or Revoking Your Proxy
If you are a shareholder of record, you may change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time prior to the final vote at the meeting by:
•
granting a new proxy bearing a later date (which automatically revokes the earlier proxy) using any of the methods described above (and until the applicable deadline for each method);
•
providing written notice of revocation to our Secretary at Flexsteel Industries, Inc., 385 Bell St, Dubuque, Iowa 52001-7004 prior to or at the meeting; or
•
attending the meeting and voting virtually.
Your most recent proxy submitted by proxy card or internet is the one that is counted. Your attendance at the meeting by itself will not automatically revoke your proxy.
For shares you hold beneficially in street name, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee following the instructions they provided, or, if you have obtained a legal proxy from your bank, broker or other nominee giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the meeting and voting virtually.
Vote Required
Votes cast by proxy or in person will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting, who will be present at the meeting. With respect to Proposal I, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote is required for the election of the director nominees named in this proxy statement. In determining a quorum, a “WITHHELD” vote will be counted, but will not be voted in favor of the nominee with respect to whom authority has been withheld. The three nominees that receive the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected.
With respect to Proposal II, the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is required. Accordingly, an abstention on Proposal II will have the same effect as voting “against” the matter. While the Board knows of no other matter to be presented at the meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the meeting, all proxies returned to the Company will be voted on any such matter in accordance with the judgment of the proxies.
Number of Copies Sent to Household
For two or more shareholders sharing the same address that do not participate in the electronic delivery of proxy materials, we only send your household a single copy of our annual report and proxy statement unless you previously withheld your consent to “householding” or instruct us otherwise. Householding saves us the expense of mailing duplicate documents to your home and conserves our natural resources, and we hope that receiving one copy rather than multiple copies is more convenient for you. However, we will promptly provide additional copies of our fiscal 2026 annual report or this proxy statement to the other shareholders in your household if you send a written request to: Secretary, Flexsteel Industries, Inc., 385 Bell St, Dubuque, Iowa 52001-7004, or you may call us at 563-556-7730 to request additional copies. Copies of the annual report, proxy statement, and other reports we file with the SEC are also available on our website at https://ir.flexsteel.com/financial-information/sec-filings or through the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
You may revoke your consent to householding at any time by contacting Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., either by calling toll-free 866-540-7095, or by writing to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.

PROPOSAL I
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation permit the election of 13 directors. The Board currently consists of seven persons divided into three classes.

PROPOSAL II
 
ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act requires public companies to conduct a separate shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation. While this advisory vote, commonly referred to as a “say-on-pay” vote, is non-binding, the Board and the Compensation Committee will review and consider the voting results when making future decisions regarding our executive compensation programs. At the 2025 shareholders’ meeting, a plurality of our shareholders voted to perform a say-on-pay vote every year. After consideration of the voting results, the Board determined that the Company will conduct future shareholder advisory votes regarding compensation awarded to its named executive officers on an annual basis until the next advisory shareholder vote on the frequency of these advisory votes is held, which is currently required to be held at least once every six years.
In accordance with Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act, we are asking shareholders to approve the following advisory resolution at the 2026 annual meeting:
RESOLVED, that the shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in the Executive Compensation section, including the summary compensation table and related narrative disclosure in the Proxy Statement for the Company’s 2026 annual meeting.
The Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR adoption of the resolution approving the compensation of our named executive officers.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Director Independence
Our Board of Directors is currently comprised of six independent directors and one executive director. The Board has determined that the following current directors are independent as defined by The Nasdaq Stock Market listing standards: Terence P. Calloway, William S. Creekmuir, M. Scott Culbreth, Kathryn P. Dickson, Anand S. Kangala, and Jeanne McGovern. A majority of the current Board members are independent. The independent directors meet periodically in executive sessions as part of a Board meeting.
Board Meeting Attendance
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, eleven meetings of the Board were held. All of the directors of the Company attended 100% of the meetings of the Board and 100% of the committee meetings on which they served. The Company does not have a formal policy regarding attendance by Board members at the Company’s annual meeting, but the Board encourages all its members to attend the annual meeting of shareholders. All the serving members of the Board of Directors attended the prior year’s annual meeting.
Committees of the Board
Subject to our Bylaws, applicable law and regulatory requirements, the Board may establish additional or different committees from time to time. Our Board has established three standing committees: Audit and Ethics Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Governance Committee. The charters of all three committees are available at https://ir.flexsteel.com/corporate-governance/governance-overview. The principal duties of the three committees are set forth below.
Audit and Ethics Committee – Appoints and confers with the independent registered public accounting firm on various matters, including the scope and results of the audit; authorizes special reviews or audits; reviews and approves quarterly and annual SEC filings; reviews internal auditing procedures and the adequacy of internal controls; and reviews policies and practices relating to compliance with laws, conflicts of interest and ethical standards of the Company. The committee held five meetings during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026. The committee members are William S. Creekmuir - Chair, Terence P. Calloway, Anand S. Kangala and Jeanne McGovern. The Board has determined that William S. Creekmuir and Jeanne McGovern qualify as “audit committee financial experts” within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, referred to as the “1934 Act.”
Compensation Committee – Reviews performance, compensation and benefits of all executive officers; approves all equity compensation; develops and maintains succession planning for executive officers; and makes recommendations regarding Board compensation. The committee, from time-to-time, delegates authority to the chief executive officer to grant a limited number of awards, under the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, to persons that are not executive officers. During the 2026 calendar year, the committee obtained advice from the independent consulting firm Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC, referred to as “Meridian” which was hired by the committee. The committee sought Meridian’s advice on industry and peer group incentive compensation practices. The committee held eight meetings during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026. The committee members are M. Scott Culbreth – Chair, William S. Creekmuir and Kathryn P. Dickson.
Nominating and Governance Committee – Identifies and reviews qualifications of new director candidates; recommends new directors and conducts new Board orientation; evaluates Board and individual director performance; develops and recommends a succession plan for the Board; recommends composition of all committees; reviews and recommends all Governance practices, policies and procedures of the Board, including environmental, social and governance (ESG); conducts ongoing education for Board members; reviews all shareholder proposals and recommends responses. The committee held six meetings during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026. The committee members are Kathryn P. Dickson – Chair, M. Scott Culbreth and Terence P. Calloway.
Board Leadership Structure
The Board elected an independent director, Ms. McGovern as Chair of the Board.
Our Bylaws provide that the Chair of the Board may be an independent director or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In making leadership determinations, the Board considers many factors including the specific needs of the business and what is in the best interest of our shareholders. The Board believes that presently it is in the best interest
8

of the Company that the positions of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer are separate. The Board believes that this separation is presently appropriate as it allows the Chief Executive Officer to focus primarily on strategy, leadership and execution of operations, while the Chair of the Board can focus on leading the Board.
Ability of Shareholders to Communicate with the Board of Directors
The Board has provided the means by which shareholders may send communications to the Board or to individual members of the Board. Such communications, whether by letter, email or telephone, should be directed to the Secretary of the Company at 385 Bell St, Dubuque, Iowa 52001-7004, or telephone number of (563) 556-7730 or email investors@flexsteel.com. Unsolicited advertisements or invitations to conferences or promotional material, at the discretion of the Secretary, may not be forwarded to the directors.
Risk Oversight
The Board of Directors is responsible for consideration and oversight of enterprise risks facing Flexsteel. Together with the Board’s standing committees, the Board is responsible for ensuring that material risks are identified and managed appropriately. The Board and its committees review strategic, operational, financial, compensation, cybersecurity/data privacy and compliance risks with senior management each quarter. Additionally, the Company’s Chief Information Officer regularly updates the Board and its committees on specific cybersecurity/data privacy initiatives. The Audit and Ethics Committee establishes, reviews and periodically updates the Guidelines for Business Conduct to ensure compliance with all applicable rules and regulations, and that management has established a system of enforcement. The Audit and Ethics Committee regularly evaluates financial and accounting risk exposures, the controls management has implemented and reviews our insurance programs. The Compensation Committee considers risks in the design of compensation programs for our executive officers.
Code of Ethics
The Company has a written code of ethics titled Guidelines for Business Conduct which has been approved by the Board of Directors. The code of ethics applies to the Company’s directors and employees, all of whom are required annually to review the code of ethics and validate their compliance. The code of ethics includes guidelines relating to the ethical handling of actual or potential conflicts of interest, compliance with laws, accurate financial reporting, and procedures for promoting compliance with, and reporting violations of, the code of ethics. The Guidelines for Business Conduct is available on the Company’s website at https://ir.flexsteel.com/corporate-governance/governance-overview. The Company intends to post any amendments to its code of ethics at this location on its website.
Related Party Transaction Policy
The Audit and Ethics Committee of the Board of Directors has adopted a written policy regarding transactions with related parties. In accordance with the policy, the Audit and Ethics Committee is responsible for the review and approval of all transactions with related persons that are required to be disclosed under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the policy, a “related person” includes any of the Flexsteel directors or executive officers, certain shareholders and any of their respective immediate family members. The policy applies to transactions in which Flexsteel is a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and a related person has a direct or indirect material interest. Under the policy, all material information related to any covered transaction is to be disclosed to the Audit and Ethics Committee. The Audit and Ethics Committee may use any process and review any information that it determines is reasonable under the circumstances in order to determine whether the covered transaction is fair and reasonable, on terms no less favorable to Flexsteel than could be obtained in a comparable arms-length transaction with an unrelated third party and in the best interests of Flexsteel.
On April 26, 2026, the Company entered into a privately negotiated transaction to repurchase shares of its common stock from F. Brooks Bertsch, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors at the time of the transaction, and certain members of Mr. Bertsch’s immediate family. The aggregate purchase price was $60.2 million for 1,279,870 shares. The Board established a special committee consisting solely of independent and disinterested members of the Board of Directors to evaluate the proposed transaction. The special committee engaged an independent financial advisor to assist in its evaluation of the transaction, including conducting a market analysis of the proposed repurchase price and providing a fairness opinion. Following its review, the special committee recommended the transaction to the Board of Directors, and the transaction was approved by the disinterested members of the Board of Directors in accordance with the Company’s related party transaction policy. No amounts remained outstanding in connection with the transaction as of June 30, 2026.
9

In connection with the transaction and pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Bertsch resigned from the Board effective April 28, 2026. Mr. Bertsch confirmed to the Company’s Board that his resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company regarding its operations, policies or practices.
Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) Practices
As a leading furniture manufacturer and importer in the U.S., the Company is committed to conducting business in a manner that incorporates effective environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices to improve our long-term sustainability and results.
The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for oversight of ESG matters. Our ESG efforts are described in detail on the Company’s website at https://www.flexsteel.com/pages/corporate-responsibility.
Stock Option, Restricted Stock Unit, and Restricted Share Granting Policy
The Compensation Committee has formalized its stock option, unit and share granting practices by adopting a policy for the grant of stock options, restricted units and restricted shares. The policy reflects the Compensation Committee’s long-standing approach to grants described in the Executive Compensation section under the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan. In addition, the policy provides, among other things, that all grants must be approved by the Compensation Committee or its designee; and the exercise price for any stock options granted will be equal to the last sale price per share of our common stock as reported on The Nasdaq Stock Market on the grant date. The policy also specifies procedures for granting stock options, restricted units or restricted shares to newly hired executive officers; and that any program, plan or practice to time or to select the grant dates of stock options, restricted units or restricted shares in coordination with the release by us of material non-public information is prohibited.
Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy
The Board has adopted an Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy with respect to incentive-based compensation. The policy provides that in the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial results due to the Company’s noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, the Board is entitled to recover from current and former executive officers any cash or equity incentive-based compensation that would not otherwise have been awarded to such persons under the as-restated financial statements during the three completed fiscal years preceding the date of the restatement. Additionally, the Board may seek the reimbursement or forfeiture of excess compensation received by an executive during any prior period if the Board determines that the material noncompliance resulting in the restatement was due to the fraud or intentional misconduct of such executive.
Stock Ownership Guidelines
The Board adopted Stock Ownership Guidelines for its Section 16 executive officers, nonemployee directors of the Board, officers of the Company, and all other employees that receive stock-based compensation. These individuals are expected to accumulate Flexsteel shares of common stock valued in the following amounts:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
•
 
 
Directors:
 
 
Five times annual director cash compensation
 
 
 
•
 
 
Chief Executive Officer:
 
 
Four times base salary
 
 
 
•
 
 
Executive Officers:
 
 
Two times base salary
 
 
 
•
 
 
Officers:
 
 
Base salary
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Ownership includes direct ownership, joint ownership by participant or their spouse, and indirect ownership through a trust, partnership, limited liability company or other entity for the benefit of the participant or spouse. In addition, ownership includes only time-based restricted stock unit awards (vested and unvested) issued under Flexsteel’s equity plans.
Hedging, Pledging and Insider Trading Policies
We have adopted an insider trading policy designed to promote compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations and applicable listing standards. Our insider trading policy applies to all Company employees (including executive officers) and our directors. Our insider trading policy prohibits directors, officers and employees from trading in our stock while aware of material non-public information about us. The policy specifically prohibits hedging and monetization transactions (such as prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds) by
10

directors, officers and employees. The policy also prohibits short selling our stock, requires any stock purchased in the open market to be held for a minimum of six months, prohibits margin and pledging transactions and transactions in put options, call options or other derivative securities. In addition, the Company’s insider trading policy provides guidelines with respect to transactions in which the Company is a participant. A copy of our Insider Trading Policy is filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2026.
Nominating Matters
The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for making recommendations to the Board concerning nominees for election as directors and nominees for Board vacancies. When assessing a director candidate’s qualifications, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers current and future strategic needs of the Company and the candidate’s expertise in finance, general management, human resources, legal, traditional and digital marketing, information technology, risk management, e-commerce, sales, operations, manufacturing, supply-chain, company culture, and their independence, high ethical standards, and uncompromising integrity. In addition, the Nominating and Governance Committee looks at the overall composition of the Board and how a candidate would contribute to the overall synergy and collaborative process of the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee often engages a third-party search firm to assist in identifying and evaluating potential nominees. The Nominating and Governance Committee has established specific minimum eligibility requirements for candidates which consist of high ethical standards, uncompromising integrity, commitment to act in the best interests of the shareholders, requirements relating to age, and ensuring that a majority of the Board remains independent.
In addition to the considerations described above, our Nominating and Governance Committee considers diversity in its evaluation of candidates for Board membership. Although the Company has no formal diversity policy, the Board believes that diversity with respect to factors such as background, experience, skills, race, gender and national origin is an important consideration in Board composition. The Nominating and Governance Committee discusses diversity considerations in connection with each candidate as well as on a periodic basis in connection with the composition of the Board as a whole.
If the Nominating and Governance Committee approves a candidate for further review following an initial screening, the Nominating and Governance Committee will establish an interview process for the candidate. Generally, the candidate will meet with the members of the Nominating and Governance Committee, all the other members of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, and the Vice President of Human Resources. Contemporaneously with the interview process, the Nominating and Governance Committee will conduct a comprehensive conflicts-of-interest assessment of the candidate. The Nominating and Governance Committee will also take into consideration the candidate’s personal attributes, including integrity, loyalty to and concern for the success and welfare of the Company and its shareholders, willingness to apply sound and independent business judgment, awareness of a director’s role in good corporate citizenship and image, time available for meetings and Company matters, and willingness to assume fiduciary responsibilities. The Nominating and Governance Committee will conduct background checks and reference checks and consider all available information in determining whether to recommend the candidate to the full Board.
Recommendations for candidates to be considered for election to the Board at our annual shareholder meetings may be submitted to the Nominating and Governance Committee by our shareholders. Candidates recommended by our shareholders will be considered under the same standards as candidates that are identified by the Nominating and Governance Committee. Any nominations for director to be made at an annual meeting of shareholders must be made in accordance with the requirements described in the section of this Proxy Statement entitled “Proposals by Shareholders.” To enable the committee to evaluate the candidate’s qualifications, shareholder recommendations must include the following information:
•
The name, age, business address and, if known, residence address of each nominee proposed in such notice;
•
The principal occupation or employment of each such nominee; and
•
The number of shares of stock of the Company which are beneficially owned by each such nominee.
Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors and certain officers and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Based on its review of the copies of such reports filed with the SEC, the Company believes
11

that, during fiscal year 2026 and up to the filing date of this Proxy Statement, all filing requirements applicable to our directors, certain officers, and owners of more than 10% of the Company’s common stock have been met other than one late Form 4 for each of David Crimmins, Michael McClaflin, Mike Ressler, Stacy Kammes and Derek Schmidt due to an administrative delay and one late Form 4 for William Creekmuir due to an administrative error.
Audit and Ethics Committee Report
The Audit and Ethics Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management. The Audit and Ethics Committee has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. The Audit and Ethics Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte & Touche LLP required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding Deloitte & Touche LLP’s communications with the Audit and Ethics Committee concerning independence and has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the firm’s independence. Based on the review and discussions referred to above in this report, the Audit and Ethics Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the last fiscal year for filing with the SEC.
This report has been prepared by members of the Audit and Ethics Committee, as in effect on August 19, 2026, the date the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K. Members of this Committee at that time were:

The amounts include the grant date fair value of the performance share awards assuming achievement of the target performance goals. The grant date fair value is determined by taking total units granted for the performance period at target multiplied by the closing market price on date of grant. The maximum share award value that could be issued for fiscal 2026 for Mr. Schmidt is $1,007,901, for Mr. Crimmins is $355,159, and for Mr. Ressler is $305,921. The amounts shown in the table for fiscal 2026 include the grant date fair value of restricted stock units for Mr. Schmidt – $335,967; for Mr. Crimmins – $118,386; and for Mr. Ressler – $101,962. The grant date fair value of restricted stock units is determined by taking total restricted stock units granted multiplied by the closing market price on date of grant.

Components of Executive Compensation
The principal components of our executive officer compensation program include base salary, annual cash incentive compensation and long-term incentives using our common stock and benefit programs.
Base Salary. An individual executive officer’s base salary is based upon the executive officer’s level of responsibility, cumulative knowledge and experience, past individual performance, contributions to past corporate performance, and competitive rates of pay. The Compensation Committee reviews each executive officer’s salary annually and makes adjustments, as appropriate, based on the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendation, including any change in the executive officer’s responsibilities, the executive officer’s past performance and changes in competitive salary levels provided by the compensation consultants retained by the Compensation Committee.
Cash Incentive Compensation. The purpose of our Cash Incentive Compensation Plan (the “CIP”) is to align incentive compensation with performance measures that drive the Company’s market value. The CIP is also designed to promote the accomplishment of corporate objectives as reflected in the Company’s operating plan and objectives established by management, and to recognize achievement through the payment of incentive compensation. For fiscal 2026, the awards were based on a one-year performance period. After the completion of the performance period, the Compensation Committee ratifies cash incentives based principally on the extent to which objectives have been achieved. If threshold performance levels are not met, no award is made. The incentive award level for the one-year performance period is expressed as a percentage of the executive officer’s annual base salary ranging from 50% to 90% based on the individual’s responsibility level and total compensation. The payouts of the individual objectives of the CIP range from threshold of 40% to a maximum of 200% of the target award. When the threshold performance is achieved, the payout percentage increases proportionately to the improvement in performance as measured against the objective. The weighting of the objectives for fiscal year 2026 for all the named executive officers was: 70% for adjusted operating income, and 30% for net sales. The amount of the awards received by the named executive officers for achieving the performance objectives for fiscal 2026 is set forth in the Non-Equity Incentive Compensation column of the Summary Compensation Table.
16

The indicated performance objectives under the cash incentive compensation plan for fiscal 2026 were as follows:
•
Target: adjusted operating income: $27.8 million, net sales: $431.0 million.
•
Threshold: adjusted operating income: $19.4 million, net sales: $366.4 million.
•
Maximum: adjusted operating income: $34.8 million, net sales: $495.7 million.
For fiscal year 2026, the Company achieved the adjusted operating income objective at 195% of target and achieved the net sales objective at 144% of target for a weighted average total of 180%.
Long-Term Incentives. The purpose of the Company’s long-term incentive compensation program is to promote the interests of the Company and its shareholders by providing key personnel of the Company with an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company and reward them for achieving a high level of corporate performance and thereby develop a stronger incentive to put forth maximum effort for the continued success and growth of the Company. In addition, the opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company will aid in attracting and retaining key personnel of outstanding ability. The level of award opportunities, as combined under the equity plans described below, are intended to be consistent with comparable companies and reflect an individual’s level of responsibility and performance. Prior to December 14, 2022, performance-based awards were granted under the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“LTIP”) while restricted stock units were issued under the Omnibus Plan. Subsequent to the approval by shareholders of the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan on December 14, 2022, all performance based and other awards are issued from the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan.
Performance Based Awards. Under the LTIP and the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, it is generally intended that the established performance objectives of awards will be measured over a three-year period. The Compensation Committee will also establish the weighting of each corporate performance objective for purposes of the performance calculations in advance of each performance period. For performance share awards for the three-year periods ending June 30, 2026, June 30, 2027, and June 30, 2028, respectively, specific performance objectives are established for each fiscal year within the three-year period. The overall payout is based on the average of each year’s achievement across all three years and is made after the end of the third year. The overall payout of the awards can range from a threshold of 40% to a maximum of 200%, applied against the performance objectives established at the target award level. When the threshold performance is achieved, the payout percentage increases proportionately to the improvement in performance as measured against the objective. The performance objectives for each of the three years is established prior to granting the award.
The Compensation Committee selected adjusted operating income as the performance objective for each fiscal year within the performance period beginning on July 1, 2023, and ending on June 30, 2026. The performance objective was selected and applied, at that time, as the best measurement of the Company’s and the individual’s long-term performance. The Compensation Committee endeavors to set the targets at levels that challenge our executive officers to improve operating results and enhance shareholder value without incentivizing decisions that may create undue long-term risk for the Company.
At the start of each three-year performance period, the Compensation Committee establishes a target number of shares of our common stock that each executive officer can earn subject to our achievement over the three-year performance period of threshold, target, outstanding and maximum levels of each corporate performance objective. Threshold and maximum levels will be expressed as a multiple of the target level. For the performance period that began July 1, 2023, and ended on June 30, 2026, the target number of shares for which each executive officer is eligible is based on a percentage of the executive officer’s base salary at the beginning of the performance period and was 95% for Mr. Schmidt, 70% for Mr. Crimmins and 30% for Mr. Ressler. When the threshold level is achieved, the payout percentage increases proportionally to the improvement in performance as measured against the objective. Performance share awards granted at the beginning of each fiscal year trigger the start of another three-year performance period. This plan structure results in three active performance periods being in place at any given time. The weighting of the performance objective for the three-year performance period ended on June 30, 2026, for Messrs. Schmidt, Crimmins and Ressler was 100% for adjusted operating income.

For each of the individual fiscal years within the three-year performance period ended June 30, 2026, the performance goals under the LTIP for adjusted operating income were as follows (in millions):

The Company achieved the adjusted operating income performance goal at 194% for the three-year performance period ended June 30, 2026.
For the three-year performance periods beginning on and after July 1, 2023, the grants have been made under the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan and after the end of the three-year performance period ended June 30, 2025, no further share issuances will be made under the LTIP.
Restricted Stock Units and Stock Options. During fiscal 2026, the Company granted restricted stock units to executive officers under the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan. The 2022 Equity Incentive Plan was adopted at the December 14, 2022 Shareholders Meeting. No awards under the Omnibus Plan can be granted after that date. In response to industry practices and competitive forces, the Compensation Committee has determined to emphasize stock awards over options awards. The Compensation Committee also believes that stock awards are a more effective way to provide named executive officers with a proprietary interest in the Company and assist the named executive officers to meet the stock ownership guidelines established by the Board. See “Corporate Governance – Stock Ownership Guidelines.” The restricted stock units granted to executive officers in fiscal 2026 will vest in three equal annual installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the vesting commencement date.
Stock options awarded under the shareholder approved plans give executive officers the opportunity to purchase our common stock for a term not to exceed 10 years and at a price of no less than the closing sale price of our common stock on the date of grant. Executive officers benefit from stock options only to the extent stock price appreciates after the grant of the option. The Compensation Committee recognizes that each executive officer, rather than the Compensation Committee, decides whether to exercise an option at any given time. For this reason, the Compensation Committee’s decision to grant a stock option to an executive officer does not take into account any gains realized by the executive officer due to a decision to exercise a pre-existing option in any given year. The Compensation Committee has not repriced stock options or replaced stock options that are underwater in the past and does not intend to engage in either practice in the future.
Stock options, restricted stock units and restricted stock are granted at the Compensation Committee’s regularly scheduled meetings, based on recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer, the participant’s level of responsibility and total compensation. Most Compensation Committee meetings are scheduled a year in advance. Scheduling decisions for Compensation Committee meetings are made without regard to anticipated earnings or other major announcements by us. The Compensation Committee will consider granting various types of equity to newly hired executive officers on a case-by-case basis.
Other Compensation and Benefits. We may provide the following perquisites to our executive officers:
•
tax planning services;
•
supplemental health insurance; and
•
furniture program.
These perquisites are provided to retain executive officers for key positions, to assist in their business development efforts and to remain competitive in the marketplace. The value of the perquisites provided to our named executive officers is set forth in the column titled “All Other Compensation” of the Summary Compensation Table.
Other Policies. The Company’s CIP, Omnibus Stock Plan, LTIP and 2022 Equity Incentive Plan provide for the right to require a participant to pay back any amount received under the plan to the extent provided by law or the Company’s Clawback Policy. See “Corporate Governance-Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy.” The award agreements
18

under the CIP, Omnibus Stock Plan, LTIP and 2022 Equity Incentive Plan are subject to forfeiture if within two years following termination of employment, the participant engages in competitive activities or improperly uses or discloses the Company’s confidential information, and such forfeiture applies to awards received during the six months preceding termination.
Role of Executives in Establishing Compensation. Our chief executive officer plays an integral role in recommending compensation for named executive officers (including base salary and performance based annual and long-term cash and equity compensation). Our chief executive officer participates in committee meetings to provide background information on our business, financial and operational objectives, and annually reviews the performance of each executive officer based on their contributions to achieving our business, financial and operational objectives and recommends compensation for our executive officers. Compensation Committee members also develop their own opinions on the annual performance of our executive officers based on their interactions with them. As required by the listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, our chief executive officer does not participate in deliberations concerning, or vote on, their compensation arrangements. The Compensation Committee approves the compensation for all executive officers.
Tax Implications. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, places a limit of $1 million on the amount of compensation that we may deduct as a business expense in any year with respect to certain of our most highly paid executive officers. While the Compensation Committee considers the deductibility of compensation as one factor in determining executive officer compensation, the Compensation Committee believes that it is in the best interests of our shareholders to maintain flexibility in our approach to executive compensation in order to structure a program that we consider to be the most effective in attracting, motivating and retaining key executive officers.

Termination or Change in Control
Severance Plan for Management Employees. The Severance Plan for Management Employees (the “Severance Plan”) provides for the payment of severance to eligible employees in the event of an involuntary termination of an eligible employee’s employment initiated by the Company (a “Qualifying Termination”). A Qualifying Termination also includes a voluntary termination for good reason during the period beginning with the execution of an agreement resulting in a change in control and ending 24 months after the change in control. An eligible employee is an employee of the Company or its affiliates who is either (i) an executive that the Company designates as subject to Section 16 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, or (ii) an individual designated as an eligible employee by the plan administrator or its delegate, within its sole discretion (an “Eligible Employee”). A Qualifying Termination does not include (i) termination for cause, (ii) an Eligible Employee’s voluntary resignation or retirement from the Company, (iii) an Eligible Employee’s termination as a result of the Eligible Employee’s death or disability, or (iv) an Eligible Employee’s failure to return to work within the time required following an approved leave of absence.
20

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Severance Plan, an Eligible Employee will receive severance payments of:
•
the Eligible Employee’s base salary continuation for 12 months;
•
a lump sum payment equal to the COBRA premiums necessary to continue the Eligible Employee’s and his or her dependents’ health insurance coverage in effect on the Eligible Employee’s termination date for a period of 12 months, without regard to whether the Eligible Employee or his or her dependents elect continuation coverage under COBRA; and
•
a lump sum payment equal to the amount of cash compensation that would be payable to the Eligible Employee under the CIP for the fiscal year during which the termination date occurs if the Eligible Employee’s employment had continued through the end of such fiscal year, computed assuming that the “target” level of performance had been achieved, without regard to any discretionary adjustments that would have the effect of reducing the amount of the annual incentive bonus (other than discretionary adjustments applicable to all similarly-situated employees who did not terminate employment).
If a Qualifying Termination of the Chief Executive Officer occurs 30 days before, on or within 24 months after a change in control, the severance payments described above will be doubled.
The plan administrator may remove an individual as an Eligible Employee prior to a Qualifying Termination. An Eligible Employee may not be removed as an Eligible Employee from participation in the Severance Plan on or after a Qualifying Termination.
The Company is entitled to clawback all Severance Payments made to an Eligible Employee under the Severance Plan in the event the Eligible Employee breaches any provision of any non-competition, non-solicitation, non-disparagement, confidentiality, or assignment of inventions covenants contained in any agreement between the Eligible Employee and the Company.
To receive any severance payments, an Eligible Employee must execute and deliver a severance agreement which provides for a release of claims against the Company, a confidentiality provision and a 12-month non-competition and non-hire clause.
The benefits under the Severance Plan replace and supersede all prior existing severance payments applicable to Eligible Employees, whether formal or informal, written or oral.
Cash Incentive Compensation Plan and Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan. Under the terms of the Company’s CIP and LTIP and applicable award agreements, named executive officers are entitled to receive payments as a result of a termination due to death or disability, on or after reaching age 62, or due to an involuntary termination for other than cause in the event of a change in control. The amount to be paid to a participant in such events is based on the pro rata number of days worked during the performance period. The awards will be paid in a lump sum after the end of the performance period, except under certain circumstances as determined by the Compensation Committee. The award agreements for both the CIP and the LTIP provide for the forfeiture of payments received up to six months prior to termination in the event the participant competes with the Company within two years of termination or improperly uses Company confidential information. The Company is also entitled to clawback any awards under the CIP and LTIP pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy.
Omnibus Stock Plan. Under the terms of the Omnibus Stock Plan and applicable award agreements, the unvested restricted stock units, restricted stock and options held by a named executive officer will vest in full upon the death or disability of such person or, for the fiscal years prior to 2022 upon a change in control. Beginning with awards made in fiscal 2022, in the event of a change in control, the award will only vest due to an involuntary termination for other than cause. The award agreements for the Omnibus Stock Plan provide for the forfeiture of payments received up to six months prior to termination in the event the participant competes with the Company within two years of termination or improperly uses Company confidential information. The Company is also entitled to clawback any awards under the Omnibus Stock Plan pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy.
2022 Equity Incentive Plan. Under the terms of the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (“2022 Plan”) award agreements, the unvested restricted stock units and performance share units held by an executive officer will vest upon the death or disability of such person or for a termination other than for cause, upon the individual reaching age 55 and a minimum length of service of 10 years. The amount vested in such events is based on the pro rata number of days worked during
21

the vesting period or performance period, as applicable. Subject to the Committee’s discretion and the applicable provisions in the event of a merger or change in control, the vesting of options granted under the 2022 Plan does not accelerate upon termination of employment, including as a result of death or disability.
The 2022 Plan does not provide for the automatic vesting of awards in connection with a merger or change in control where a successor corporation assumes the awards. In the event of a merger or change in control, each outstanding award will be treated as the Compensation Committee determines, except that if a successor corporation or its parent or subsidiary does not assume or substitute an equivalent award for any outstanding award, then such award will fully vest, all restrictions on such award will lapse, all performance goals or other vesting criteria applicable to such award will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels, and such award will become fully exercisable, if applicable, for a specified period prior to the transaction. In the event of a merger or change in control and the successor corporation does assume or substitute the award and the participant is involuntarily terminated without cause within 12 months of the merger or change in control, the awards will generally be treated in the same manner as if the awards had not been assumed or substituted. The amendment of the 2022 Plan described in Proposal IV expands this 12-month period relating to a voluntary termination to the period beginning with the execution of an agreement resulting in a change in control and ending 24 months after the change in control.
The 2022 Plan award agreements provide for the forfeiture of payments received up to six months prior to termination in the event the participant competes with the Company within two years of termination or improperly uses Company confidential information. The Company is also entitled to clawback any awards under the Omnibus Stock Plan pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy.

Pay Versus Performance
As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between “compensation actually paid” (or “CAP”) to our CEO as principal executive officer (or “PEO) and to our other NEOs and certain metrics of financial performance of the Company. The following table shows the total compensation for our NEOs for the past three fiscal years as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, the CAP to our CEO as PEO, and, on an average basis, our other NEOs, and our total shareholder return (“TSR”). CAP figures do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to our NEOs during the applicable year as significant portions of this compensation depend on the achievement of performance criteria in subsequent fiscal periods.

Cumulative total shareholder return (“TSR”) is calculated based on a hypothetical $100 investment beginning July 1, 2023 and reinvestment of all dividends. The TSR is reported on a cumulative basis over fiscal years 2024 to 2026. Specifically, TSR for fiscal year 2024 in the table will represent TSR over fiscal year 2024. TSR for fiscal year 2025 will represent the cumulative TSR over fiscal years 2024 and 2025. TSR for fiscal year 2026 will represent the cumulative TSR over fiscal years 2024, 2025 and 2026.
Relationship Between Pay and Performance
We believe the CAP in each of the years reported above and over the multi-year cumulative period are reflective of the Compensation Committee’s emphasis on “pay-for-performance” as the CAP fluctuated year-over-year, primarily due to changes in the value of equity awards.
The relationship between “Compensation Actually Paid” to the PEO and to our other NEOs is generally aligned with the trend in the Company’s Cumulative TSR and Net Income. This is because CAP is substantially influenced by year-over-year changes in stock prices due to the fact that a significant portion of the PEO’s and each NEO’s compensation is equity-based.
The CAP for the PEO and our non-PEOs decreased in 2025 as compared to 2024 while TSR and income increased primarily due to Mr. Schmidt switching to PEO from non-PEO in 2025 and Mr. Ressler replacing Mr. Schmidt as a non-PEO in 2025.
