Notice and Access model regulatory
"We will be using the SEC’s Notice and Access model, which allows us to make the proxy materials available on the Internet..."
broker non-vote regulatory
"If your bank, broker or other nominee cannot vote your shares... this is referred to as a “broker non-vote.”"
Total Shareholder Return financial
"In comparison, the Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”), based on an initial $100 investment..."
Total shareholder return is the overall gain an investor gets from owning a stock, combining changes in the share price plus any cash payouts like dividends, and assuming those payouts are reinvested in more shares. Investors use it like a single score that shows the true return on their investment—similar to checking both the growth of a savings account and the interest earned—to compare how well different companies or investments perform over time.
compensation actually paid financial
"The use of the term “compensation actually paid” (“CAP”) is required by the SEC rules."
Change in Control regulatory
"if the termination of employment is terminated within twelve months following a Change in Control (as defined in the employment agreement)."
A "change in control" occurs when the ownership or management of a company shifts significantly, such as through a merger, acquisition, or sale of a large part of its assets. This change can impact how the company is run and may influence its future direction. For investors, it matters because it can affect the company's stability, strategy, and value, often signaling potential changes in investment risk or opportunity.
independent registered public accounting firm regulatory
"The Audit Committee has appointed BDO as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements..."
An independent registered public accounting firm is an outside accounting company officially registered with the government regulator to examine and report on a public company's financial records and controls. Investors treat its reports like an impartial inspector’s certificate — they add credibility to financial statements, help spot errors or misleading claims, and reduce the risk that shareholders are relying on unchecked or biased numbers.

This proxy statement along with the accompanying notice of annual meeting of stockholders summarizes the purposes of the meeting and the information you need to know to vote at the Annual Meeting.
Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Stockholder Meeting to Be Held on June 4, 2026. The proxy statement and annual report to security holders are available at proxyvote.com
We are making the proxy materials available to stockholders on the Internet under the SEC’s Notice and Access model. We believe the electronic method of delivery under the Notice and Access model will decrease postage and printing expenses, expedite delivery of proxy materials and reduce our environmental impact, and we encourage you to take advantage of the availability of the proxy materials on the Internet. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials includes instructions for accessing the proxy materials and voting by telephone or on the Internet. Stockholders will need their unique control number, which appears on their Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (printed in the box and marked by the arrow), the proxy card and the instructions that accompany the proxy materials in order to access the voting site. Beneficial stockholders who do not have a control number may gain access by logging into their broker, brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee’s website and selecting the stockholder communications mailbox to link through to the 2026 Annual Meeting materials. Instructions should also be provided on the voting instruction card provided by your broker, brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee.
If you would like to receive a full printed set of the proxy materials in the mail, please follow the instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials for requesting such materials.
Who Can Vote?
Only stockholders who owned our common stock at the close of business on April 7, 2026 are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On this record date, there were 28,860,368 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Our common stock is our only class of voting stock.
You do not need to attend the Annual Meeting to vote your shares. Shares represented by valid proxies, received in time for the meeting and not revoked prior to the meeting will be voted at the meeting. A stockholder may revoke a proxy before the proxy is voted by providing a signed statement of revocation or a duly executed proxy card bearing a later date to us at 1800 Aviation Drive, Suite 100, Georgetown, TX 78628, Attention: Daniel Chism, Chief Financial Officer. Any stockholder who has executed a proxy card but attends the meeting in person may revoke the proxy and vote at the meeting.
How Many Votes Do I Have?
Each share of our common stock that you own entitles you to one vote.
How Do I Vote?
Whether you plan to attend the Annual Meeting or not, we urge you to vote by proxy. Voting by proxy will not affect your right to attend the annual meeting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If you hold shares of the Company directly in your name with our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company, you are a “stockholder of record” or “registered stockholder”. If you are a stockholder of record, the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials has been sent directly to you by the Company or by our representative. If you own your shares indirectly through a broker, bank, other financial institution, or other designated representative (each, a “nominee”), your shares are said to be held in “street name.” Technically, your nominee will vote those shares. In this case, the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will be forwarded to you by your nominee. Through this process, your nominee collects voting instructions from all of its customers who hold shares in the Company and then submits those votes to us.
How Does the Board of Directors Recommend That I Vote on the Proposals?
The Board of Directors recommends that you vote as follows:
FOR” the election of Mr. Peter H. Woodward and Dr. Vivek Mohindra as Class III directors;
FOR” the ratification of the appointment of BDO USA, P.C. as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.
If any other matter is presented, the proxy card provides that your shares will be voted by the proxy holder listed on the proxy card in accordance with his or her best judgment. At the time this proxy statement was printed, we knew of no matters that needed to be acted on at the Annual Meeting, other than those discussed in this proxy statement.
May I Revoke My Proxy?
If you give us your proxy, you may revoke it at any time before the meeting. You may revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways:
Signing a new proxy card and submitting it, as instructed above;
Notifying us at 1800 Aviation Drive, Suite 100, Georgetown, TX 78628, Attention: Daniel Chism, Chief Financial Officer, in writing before the Annual Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or
Attending the meeting in person and voting in person. Attending the meeting in person will not in and of itself revoke a previously submitted proxy, unless you specifically request it.
What if I Receive More Than One Proxy Card?
You may receive more than one proxy card or voting instruction form if you hold shares of our common stock in more than one account, which may be in registered form or held in street name. Please vote in the manner described under “How Do I Vote?” for each account to ensure that all your shares are voted.
Will My Shares be Voted if I Do Not Return My Proxy Card?
If your shares are registered in your name or if you have stock certificates, your shares will be voted only if you return your proxy card by mail or vote at the meeting as described above under “How Do I Vote?”
If your shares are held in street name and you do not provide voting instructions to your nominee that holds your shares as described above under “How Do I Vote?,” the bank, broker or other nominee has the authority to vote your unvoted shares on Proposal 2, even if it does not receive instructions from you. We encourage you to provide voting instructions. This ensures your shares will be voted at the meeting in the manner you desire. If your bank, broker or other nominee cannot vote your shares on a particular matter because it has not received instructions from you and does not have discretionary voting authority on that matter, this is referred to as a “broker non-vote.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What Vote is Required to Approve Each Proposal and How are Votes Counted?
Proposals 1: Elect Two Directors
The affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares of common stock cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting is required to elect Mr. Peter H. Woodward and Dr. Vivek Mohindra, separately, as Class III directors. You may vote either FOR the nominees or WITHHOLD your vote from either or both of the nominees. Votes that are withheld will not be included in the vote for the election of directors. Banks, brokers, and other nominees DO NOT have the authority to vote your uninstructed shares in the election of directors. If you hold your shares in street name and you do not instruct your bank, broker, or other nominee how to vote your shares in the election of directors, no votes will be cast on your behalf. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election.
 
 
Proposal 2: Ratify the Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the annual meeting is required to ratify the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm. Abstentions will be treated as shares represented at the meeting and will have the same effect as votes against this proposal. Banks, brokers, and other nominees have discretionary authority to vote customers’ uninstructed shares held by the firms in street name on this proposal. We are not required to obtain the approval of our stockholders to appoint our independent registered public accounting firm. If our stockholders do not ratify the appointment of BDO USA, P.C. as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors will reconsider its appointment. Even if the appointment of BDO USA, P.C. as our external auditor is approved by stockholders, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors retains the right to determine if it is advisable to consider the appointment of other auditors and may recommend we consider such a potential change as early as for the audit of our financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2026.
Is Voting Confidential?
We will keep all the proxies, ballots and voting tabulations private. We let only our Inspector of Election and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company examine these documents. Management will not know how you voted on a specific proposal unless it is necessary to meet legal requirements. We will, however, receive any written comments you make on the proxy card or elsewhere.
Could the Annual Meeting be Postponed?
If a quorum is not present or represented at the Annual Meeting, the chair of the meeting or the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting have the power to postpone the meeting.
What Are the Costs of Soliciting these Proxies?
We will pay all of the costs of soliciting these proxies. Our directors and employees may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, fax or email. We will pay these employees and directors no additional compensation for these services. We will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward these proxy materials to their principals and to obtain authority to execute proxies. We will then reimburse them for their expenses.
What Constitutes a Quorum for the Meeting?
The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock as of the record date is necessary to constitute a quorum at the meeting. Votes of stockholders of record who are present at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy, abstentions, and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Attending the Annual Meeting
The Annual Meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m., Central Daylight Time, on Thursday, June 4, 2026, at our offices located at 1800 Aviation Drive, Suite 100, Georgetown, Texas 78628. You need not attend the Annual Meeting in order to vote.
Householding of Annual Disclosure Documents
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted a rule concerning the delivery of annual disclosure documents. The rule allows us, or your broker, to send a single set of our annual report and proxy statement to any household at which two or more of our stockholders reside, if we or your broker believe that the stockholders are members of the same family. This practice, referred to as “householding,” benefits both you and us. It reduces the volume of duplicate information received at your household and helps to reduce our expenses. The rule applies to our annual reports, proxy statements and information statements. Once you receive notice from your broker or from us that communications to your address will be “householded,” the practice will continue until you are otherwise notified or until you revoke your consent to the practice. Each stockholder will continue to receive a separate proxy card or voting instruction card.
If you do not wish to participate in “householding” and would like to receive your own set of our annual disclosure documents in future years, follow the instructions described below. Conversely, if you share an address with another stockholder and together both of you would like to receive only a single set of our annual disclosure documents, follow these instructions:
If your shares are registered in your own name, please contact our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, and inform them of your request by calling them at (212) 509-4000, ext. 206, or by e-mail at cstmail@continentalstock.com, or writing them at 1 State Street, 30th Floor, New York, NY 10004-1571.
If a broker or other nominee holds your shares, please contact the broker or other nominee directly and inform them of your request. Be sure to include your name, the name of your brokerage firm and your account number.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

MANAGEMENT AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Board of Directors
Our Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that our business is to be managed by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. We do not have a policy as to whether the role of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors should be separate or combined or whether the Chairman of the Board of Directors should be a management or non-management director. Our Board of Directors believes that having an independent director serve as the non-executive Chairman of our Board of Directors is in the best interests of our stockholders. This structure allows the Chairman of our Board of Directors to focus on the effectiveness of our Board of Directors while the Chief Executive Officer focuses on executing our strategic plan and managing our operations and performance.
In accordance with our Certificate of Incorporation, our Board of Directors is divided into three classes for purposes of election. One class is elected at each annual meeting of stockholders to serve for a three-year term. Our Board of Directors currently consists of five members, classified into three classes as follows:
Mr. Peter H. Woodward and Dr. Vivek Mohindra constitute a class with a term ending at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders;
Mr. Richard M. Metzler constitutes a class with a term ending at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; and.
Mr. Michael Fahy and Mr. Darryll E. Dewan constitute a class with a term ending at the 2028 Annual Meeting of Stockholders
Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors.
Our Board of Directors has voted to nominate each of Dr. Mohindra and Mr. Woodward for election at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders for a term of three years to serve until the 2029 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successor has been elected and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal.
Set forth below are the names of the persons nominated for director and our current directors whose terms do not expire this year, their ages, their offices in the company, if any, their principal occupations or employment for the past five years, the length of their tenure as directors, the names of other public companies in which such persons have held directorships during the past five years, and the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that support the conclusion that these persons should serve as members of our Board of Directors. Mr. Woodward, Mr. Fahy, Mr. Metzler and Dr. Mohindra are non-employee directors, and Mr. Woodward, Mr. Fahy and Mr. Metzler are the members of the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee.

Director Independence
The Board of Directors has adopted the director independence standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”). Our Board of Directors has reviewed the materiality of any relationship that each of our directors has with the company, either directly or indirectly. Based upon this review, our Board of Directors has determined that each of Mr. Woodward, Mr. Metzler, Mr. Fahy and Dr. Mohindra is an “independent director” as defined by Nasdaq and has no material relationship with us, except as a director and/or stockholder. When determining the independence of Mr. Woodward, the Board of Directors considered the amount of stock owned by Mr. Woodward and his affiliates. In accordance with Nasdaq listing requirements, the Audit Committee is comprised solely of Mr. Woodward, Mr. Metzler and Mr. Fahy.
Role in Risk Oversight
As part of its general responsibility to manage our business, the Board of Directors has oversight responsibility with respect to risk management. The Board of Directors has delegated primary responsibility for risk oversight and the monitoring of our significant areas of risk to the Audit Committee. In accordance with its charter, the Audit Committee inquires of management and our independent registered accounting firm about significant risks or exposures to risks and discusses guidelines and policies to govern the steps management has taken to minimize these risks. The Audit Committee regularly reports the results of these inquiries and discussions to our Board of Directors.
Committees of the Board of Directors and Meetings
Meeting Attendance
Although we do not have any formal policy regarding director attendance at our annual meetings, we attempt to schedule our annual meetings so that all of our directors can attend. All of our directors attended the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders either in person or telephonically. During 2025, the Board of Directors met seven times. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, all of our directors attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board of Directors and committees of the Board of Directors on which they served.
Audit Committee
Our Audit Committee currently has three members, Peter H. Woodward, Richard Metzler and Michael Fahy. Our Audit Committee’s role and responsibilities are set forth in a written charter and include the authority to retain and terminate the services of our independent registered public accounting firm, review annual financial statements, review quarterly financial statements, consider matters relating to accounting policy and internal controls and review the scope of annual audits. Our Audit Committee reviews and approves in advance all related party transactions greater than $25,000 and follows a pre-approved process for contracts with a related party for less than $25,000. The Audit Committee met seven times in 2025.
Each of Mr. Woodward, Mr. Metzler and Mr. Fahy satisfies the current independence standards promulgated by the SEC and Nasdaq, as such standards apply specifically to members of audit committees. The Board has determined that each of Mr. Woodward, Mr. Metzler and Mr. Fahy is an “audit committee financial expert,” as the SEC has defined that term in Item 407 of Regulation S-K. Please also see the report of the Audit Committee set forth elsewhere in this proxy statement.

Compensation Committee
Our Compensation Committee currently has three members, Peter H. Woodward, Richard Metzler and Michael Fahy. Our Compensation Committee reviews, approves and makes recommendations regarding our compensation policies, practices and procedures to ensure that legal and fiduciary responsibilities of the Board of Directors are carried out and that such policies, practices and procedures contribute to our success. The Compensation Committee is responsible for the determination of the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer and all Vice Presidents who report to the Chief Executive Officer, and conducts its decision-making process with respect to their compensation without the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer or other Vice Presidents present. Each of Mr. Woodward, Mr. Metzler and Mr. Fahy qualifies as an independent director under the definition promulgated by Nasdaq. The Compensation Committee met one time during 2025.
The Compensation Committee has the responsibility to:
review, modify and approve our overall compensation strategy;
recommend to the Board of Directors the compensation and terms of employment of our executive officers, including our President and Chief Executive Officer Darryll E. Dewan, our Chief Financial Officer Daniel M. Chism, and our Chief Operating Officer Karl T. Marrott, and to evaluate their respective performance in light of relevant goals and objectives;
review and recommend to our Board of Directors the type and amount of compensation to be paid or awarded to the members of our Board of Directors;
recommend to our Board of Directors the adoption, amendment and termination of any bonus, equity and other deferred compensation plans;
administer all equity-based plans, including the 2025 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan;
determine appropriate insurance coverage for our executive officers and directors; and
review, discuss and assess its own performance at least annually.
Our Compensation Committee approves and makes recommendations to our Board of Directors with respect to the compensation for our executive officers (other than Mr. Dewan) with the advice of Mr. Dewan and/or one or more other executive officers designated by Mr. Dewan. Although the Compensation Committee receives information and recommendations regarding the design and level of compensation for the executive officers from management, the Compensation Committee makes the final recommendations to the Board of Directors as to the design and compensation levels for the executive officers. To the extent we enter into employment agreements with our executive officers, those agreements would be subject to negotiation between us and the applicable executive officer. The Compensation Committee did not engage a compensation consultant in 2025.
Our 2025 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan provides the Compensation Committee with the discretion to issue stock options, but we do not have a policy concerning the timing of stock option grants. Although we have no specific practice concerning the timing of stock option grants, we do not time the disclosure of material nonpublic information to affect the value of executive compensation.
A copy of the Compensation Committee’s written charter is publicly available on our website at www.tssiusa.com.
Nominations for Directors
We do not currently have a standing Nominating Committee. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Woodward, Mr. Metzler, Mr. Fahy and Dr. Mohindra, independent members of the Board of Directors, adequately fulfill the obligations of a nominating committee without the need of incurring additional costs of committee meetings.
The Board of Directors considers recommendations of potential candidates from current directors, management and stockholders. Stockholders’ nominations for directors must be made in writing and must include the following information:
the name, age, business address, and residence address of the nominee;
the principal occupation or employment of the nominee;

If a vacancy were to occur on the Board of Directors or if the Board were to increase the number of directors, the Board of Directors would identify potential candidates to fill the vacancy. Although there are no specific qualifications and standards that must be met by a candidate or any specific qualities or skills that a candidate must possess, the Board of Directors would evaluate a candidate on a wide variety of factors. These factors include the candidate’s background and qualifications, diversity and business experience, and commitment to serving on the Board of Directors and its committees. It is preferable that candidates have a reputation for sound business judgment and integrity and inspire trust and confidence in the other directors. The Board of Directors does not have a formal policy regarding diversity in identifying candidates but rather considers diversity among the various factors relevant to any particular candidate.
Stockholder Communications to the Board
Stockholders who wish to address questions regarding our business directly with the Board of Directors, or any individual director, should direct his or her questions in writing to the Chairman of the Board of Directors at 1800 Aviation Drive, Suite 100, Georgetown, Texas 78628. Communications will be distributed to the Board of Directors, or to any individual director or directors, as appropriate, depending on the subject matter outlined in the communications. Items that are unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of the Board of Directors may be excluded, such as:
junk mail and mass mailings,
resumes and other forms of job inquiries,
surveys, or
solicitations or advertisements.
In addition, any material that is unduly hostile, threatening, or illegal in nature may be excluded, provided that any communication that is filtered out will be made available to any outside director upon request.

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE
We are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation and certain financial performance metrics for each of the last three completed calendar years. In determining the “compensation actually paid” to our Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”), we are required to make various adjustments to amounts that have previously been reported in the Summary Compensation Table in previous years, as the SEC’s calculation method for this section differs from those required in the Summary Compensation Table. The disclosure included in this section is required by SEC rules and does not necessarily align with how the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee view the link between our performance and the compensation of our named executive officers.
Pay versus Performance Table
The table below presents information of our principal executive officer (“PEO”), Darryll Dewan, and our other NEOs in comparison to certain financial performance metrics for the three most recently completed years. The metrics are not those that the Compensation Committee uses when setting executive compensation. The use of the term “compensation actually paid” (“CAP”) is required by the SEC rules. Neither CAP nor the total amount reported in the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) reflect the amount of compensation actually paid, earned or received during the applicable year. Per SEC rules, CAP was calculated by adjusting the SCT total values for the applicable year as described in the footnotes to the table.

The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following: (i) for awards that are granted and vest in the same applicable year, the fair value as of the vesting date; (ii) for awards granted in prior years that vest in the applicable year, the amount equal to the change in fair value as of the vesting date (from the end of the prior fiscal year).
(c)
The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following: (i) the year-end fair value of any equity awards granted in the applicable year that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the year; (ii) the amount of change in fair value as of the end of the applicable year (from the end of the prior fiscal year) of any awards granted in prior years that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the applicable year

Our non-PEO NEOs for 2025 and 2024 were Daniel M. Chism and Karl T. Marrott. In 2023, the non-PEO NEOs were John K. Penver and Karl T. Marrott. The dollar amounts reported in this column represent the average of the amounts reported for our NEOs as a group in the “Total” column of the SCT in each applicable year.

The dollar amounts reported in this column represent the average amount of CAP to the NEOs as a group. These amounts do not reflect the actual average amount of compensation earned or paid to the NEOs as a group during the applicable year.
(5)
Cumulative total shareholder return (“TSR”) is calculated by dividing the difference between our share price at the end and the beginning of the measurement period by our share price at the beginning of the measurement period. There were no dividends for the common stock. The beginning of the measurement period for calculating the cumulative total shareholder return was our share price at December 31, 2022.
Relationship of CAP to Certain Other Measures:
As part of our overall compensation philosophy, we utilize grants of stock options and restricted stock as a recruiting and retention tool and to align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders by incentivizing them to increase stockholder value. As shown in the tables above, CAP decreased significantly in 2025 for our PEO and our non-PEO NEO’s, primarily due to the decrease in the company’s stock price in 2025 and the impact that had on executives’ stock compensation.
The total CAP to our PEO, as presented in the preceding tables, decreased 96% from 2024 to 2025 and the total CAP to our other non-PEO NEO’s decreased 65% over the same time period primarily due to an overall decline in our stock price and the resulting impact on calculated stock compensation, compared to the increase in stock price affecting the CAP calculated for 2024. In comparison, the Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”), based on an initial $100 investment at the beginning of the periods presented above, decreased 38% from 2024 to 2025, in relative alignment with the percentage decrease in CAP. A $100 investment in our stock on December 31, 2022 would have been worth $1,266 on December 31, 2025, a decrease from $2,045 on December 31, 2024.
Our net income grew 153% from 2024 to 2025 relative to the decrease in CAP to our PEO and average CAP to the other NEO’s. The decrease in CAP for the PEO and other non-PEO NEO’s is closely correlated with our decline in TSR over the same period rather than the increase in net income over the same period.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

(Notice Item 2)
On July 10, 2025, the Audit Committee approved the dismissal of Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P. (“Weaver”) as our independent registered public accounting firm. Weaver’s reports on our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and through July 10, 2025, there were no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) with Weaver on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Weaver, would have caused Weaver to make reference thereto in its reports on the consolidated financial statements for such years. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 and through July 10, 2025, there have been no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act).
On July 15, 2025, the Audit Committee engaged BDO USA, P.C. (“BDO”) as our new independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, which was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. During fiscal years 2023 and 2024 and through July 15, 2025, we did not consult with BDO regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to us that BDO concluded was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of disagreement or reportable event as defined in Regulation S-K, Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and Item 304(a)(1)(v), respectively. We authorized Weaver to respond fully to the inquiries of BDO regarding any matters discussed between us and Weaver.
The Audit Committee has appointed BDO as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. The Board proposes that the stockholders ratify the appointment. BDO audited our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. We expect that representatives of BDO will be present at the meeting, will be able to make a statement if they so desire, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Consistent with policies of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding auditor independence, the Audit Committee has responsibility, pursuant to its written charter, for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing
19

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the work of the independent registered public accounting firm. In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee’s policy is to approve all audit and non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm prior to the commencement of the services using a combination of pre-approvals for certain engagements up to predetermined dollar thresholds in accordance with the pre-approval policy and specific approvals for certain engagements on a case-by-case basis. The Audit Committee has delegated authority to the committee’s chairman to pre-approve between committee meetings those services that have not already been pre-approved by the committee. The chairman of the Audit Committee is required to report any such pre-approval decisions to the full committee at its next scheduled meeting.
Prior to engagement, the Audit Committee pre-approves these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted and the Audit Committee requires the independent registered public accounting firm and management to report actual fees versus the budget periodically throughout the year by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the independent registered public accounting firm for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, the Audit Committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present or represented and entitled to vote at the annual meeting is required to ratify the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm. If the stockholders do not ratify the appointment of BDO USA, P.C. as our independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee will reconsider its appointment. At any time, even after approval of shareholders of the independent registered accounting firm, the Audit Committee has the discretion to solicit bids from other independent audit firms and select an alternate firm, if it determines it is advisable to do so.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE TO RATIFY THE SELECTION OF BDO USA, P.C. AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM, AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY THE BOARD WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF SUCH RATIFICATION UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER INDICATES OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.
