Ethan Allen Interiors Inc.
A maker of home furnishings and interior design services, Ethan Allen sells sofas, tables, and bedroom sets through its own design centers in the U.S. and Canada, with most of its furniture built in North American plants. It began in 1932 as a housewares sales agency selling garden swings and plaster gnomes before its founders bought a Vermont sawmill and started making their own furniture. The brand takes its name from Revolutionary War hero Ethan Allen, chosen for its Vermont heritage and independent spirit.
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following: On August 19, 2026, the Issuer's counsel advised counsel for DGB Investment that in January 2026, the Board had purportedly reduced the size of the Board from six to five directors. The Issuer has never publicly disclosed this reduction in Board size, and such information contradicted information that a member of the Issuer's senior management had previously shared with a representative of DGB Investment. To ascertain whether the undisclosed reduction in the size of the Board was properly considered and enacted in accordance with the Board's fiduciary duties to stockholders, on August 25, 2026, DGB Investment delivered a books and records demand pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "Books and Records Demand") to the Issuer. The Books and Records Demand requests, among other things, the Board's corporate records with respect to any reduction in the number of directors on the Board, in a format that preserves and provides all relevant metadata. On August 27, 2026, in reliance upon the Issuer's counsel's representation that the Board had reduced its size in January 2026, DGB Investment delivered a letter to the Issuer withdrawing its nomination of Ms. O'Reilly for election to the Board at the 2026 Annual Meeting in order to conform with the requirements of Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. DGB Investment expressly reserves all rights pending the Issuer's production of records responsive to the Books and Records Demand.
