NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR
Pursuant to the Company’s articles of incorporation and bylaws, our board of directors has fixed the number of directors at five. Our board of directors currently consists of five directors.
The members of our board of directors comprise a single class, and at each annual meeting of shareholders all directors are elected. The directors elected at the Annual Meeting will serve until the annual meeting of shareholders in 2027, and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Our board of directors may fill directorships resulting from vacancies and may increase or decrease the number of directors. Upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, our board of directors has nominated the following five nominees, who are all current members of the board of directors, for election as directors at the Annual Meeting:
|
Michael Pope Chairman |
Age: 45 Director since: September 2014 Committees: N/A |
|
Carine Clark Independent Director |
Age: 63 Director since: August 2025 Committees: Audit (Chair), Compensation, and Nominating & Corporate Governance |
|
Peter Fittin Independent Director |
Age: 34 Director since: August 2025 Committees: Audit, Compensation, and Nominating & Corporate Governance (Chair) |
|
Tiffany Kuo Independent Director |
Age: 37 Director since: September 2014 Committees: Audit, Compensation (Chair), and Nominating & Corporate Governance |
|
Mark Elliott Non-Executive Director |
Age: 74 Director since: September 2014 Committees: N/A |
Each such nominee has consented to be named herein and to serve as a director, if elected. Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by holders of the shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Shareholders have no right to vote cumulatively for directors. The five nominees receiving the highest number of votes cast “for” will be elected.
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
There are no family relationships among any of our directors and executive officers. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, Carine Clark, Peter Fittin, and Tiffany Kuo are our independent directors. As a Nasdaq listed company, we believe that the foregoing directors satisfy the definition of “independent director” under Nasdaq Rule 5605(a)(2). In making this determination, our board of directors considered the relationships that each of these non-employee directors has with us and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence. As required under applicable Nasdaq rules, we anticipate that our independent directors will meet on a regular basis as often as necessary to fulfill their responsibilities, including at least annually in executive session without the presence of non-independent directors and management.
BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE
Our board of directors has chosen to elect a non-executive Chairman of the board of directors. We believe the Chairman of the Board plays an important governance leadership role that enhances long-term shareholder value.
The board of directors receives regular reports from the members of senior management on operational, financial, legal and regulatory issues and risks. The Audit Committee of the board of directors additionally is charged under its charter with oversight of financial risk, including the Company’s internal controls, and it receives regular reports from management, the Company’s internal auditors and the Company’s independent auditors. Whenever a committee of the board of directors receives a report involving risk identification, risk management or risk mitigation, the chairman of the committee reports on that discussion, as appropriate, to the full board of directors during the next board meeting.
BOARD MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES
The board of directors held 10 meetings during 2025. During 2025, no director attended fewer than 75% of the meetings of the board of directors and board committees of which the director was a member.
It is the policy of the board of directors that all directors should attend the annual meetings in person or by teleconference. Seven directors attended the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of shareholders.

Audit Committee. According to its charter, the Audit Committee is to consist of at least three members, each of whom shall be a non-employee director who has been determined by the board of directors to meet the independence requirements under Nasdaq rules, and also Rule 10A-3(b)(1) of the SEC, subject to the exemptions provided in Rule 10A-3(c).

At present, the Audit Committee members consist of Ms. Clark, Mr. Fittin, and Ms. Kuo, with Ms. Clark serving as chair of the Audit Committee. All members of the Audit Committee are independent directors. The Audit Committee will assist the board of directors by overseeing the performance of the independent auditors and the quality and integrity of our internal accounting, auditing, and financial reporting practices. The Audit Committee is responsible for retaining (subject to shareholder ratification) and, as necessary, terminating the engagement of, the independent auditors, annually reviewing the qualifications, performance and independence of the independent auditors and the audit plan, fees and audit results, and pre-approving audit and non-audit services to be performed by the auditors and related fees. Our board of directors has determined that Ms. Clark meets the requirements of being an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC, and, as a result, is serving as chair of the Audit Committee.

The Compensation Committee has the authority, in its sole discretion, to retain compensation consultants to assist the Compensation Committee in overseeing our compensation programs. None of the members of the Committee has been an officer or employee of the Company, and our board of directors has considered and determined that all of the members are “independent”, as that term is defined under Nasdaq and SEC rules, and otherwise meet the criteria set forth in the Compensation Committee’s Charter. A copy of our Compensation Committee charter is located under the “Corporate Governance” tab on our website at www.boxlight.com.

CONSIDERATIONS IN EVALUATING DIRECTOR NOMINEES
The board of directors is responsible for overseeing the Company’s business, in accordance with its fiduciary duty to the Company’s shareholders. This significant responsibility requires highly skilled individuals with various qualities, attributes and professional experience. There are general requirements for service on the board of directors that are applicable to directors and there are other skills and experience that should be represented on the board of directors as a whole but not necessarily by each director. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the qualifications of director candidates individually and in the broader context of the board of directors’ overall composition and the Company’s current and future needs. In recruiting and evaluating new director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assesses candidates’ independence, as well as the candidates’ background and experience, and current board needs. Each of the Company’s directors possesses high ethical standards, acts with integrity, and exercises careful, mature judgment. In addition, our directors are knowledgeable and experienced in one or more business, governmental, or civic endeavors, which further qualifies them for service as members of the Board. Alignment with our shareholders is important in building long-term value for the Company over time. In addition, in determining whether to nominate an existing director for re-election to the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers and reviews the existing director’s past attendance at board and committee meetings, and the director’s participation in, and contributions to, the activities of the board of directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee endeavors to have a board of directors representing diverse experience at policy-making levels in business, education, or areas that are relevant to the Company’s business.
SHAREHOLDER RECOMMENDATIONS FOR NOMINATIONS TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
We do not currently have a procedure by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the board of directors. Prior to the listing of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq, as a private company with a limited shareholder base, we did not believe that it was important to provide such a procedure. However, as a publicly traded Nasdaq company with the requirement to hold annual shareholder meetings, we may consider implementing such a policy in the future.
COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Shareholders can mail communications to the board of directors, c/o Secretary, Boxlight Corporation, 2750 Premiere Parkway, Suite 900, Duluth, Georgia 30097, who will forward the correspondence to each addressee.

BY WRITING 2750 Premiere Parkway, Suite 900 |
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE GUIDELINES AND CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS
We have adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of the code will be made available on the Corporate Governance section of our website, which is located at www.boxlight.com. If we make any substantive amendments to, or grant any waivers from, the code of business conduct and ethics for any officer or director, we will disclose the nature of such amendment or waiver on our website or in a current report on Form 8-K.
Insider TRADING POLICY AND ANTI-HEDGING POLICY
We have adopted an insider trading policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities by our directors, officers, and employees that we believe is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and Nasdaq listing standards. Our policy, among other things, prohibits persons covered by the policy from trading in the Company’s securities while in possession of material nonpublic information relating to the Company, other than in connection with a Rule 10b5
Legal PROCEEDINGS
Currently, there are no material proceedings to which any of our directors, officers, affiliates, any owners of record or beneficially of more than five percent of any class of voting securities, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate, or security holder is a party adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries.
ROLE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN RISK OVERSIGHT
Risk is inherent with every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks that we face, while our board of directors, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, our board of directors is responsible for satisfying itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed.
Our board of directors does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through our board of directors as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of the board of directors that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our board of directors is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, including a determination of the nature and level of risk appropriate for us. Our Audit Committee has the responsibility to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. The Audit Committee also monitors oversight of the performance of our internal audit function. Our Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance guidelines, including whether they are successful in preventing illegal or improper liability-creating conduct. Our Compensation Committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs have the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking or promote behaviors contra to our Code of Business Conduct.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Proposal 1: Election of Directors |
|
What am I |
You are being asked to elect five (5) directors at the Annual Meeting. Each of the directors elected at the Annual Meeting will commence their term at the end of the Annual Meeting and serve until the next Annual Meeting and until a successor has been elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier resignation or removal. We believe that each of the nominees brings a set of experience and qualifications that position our board of directors well to lead the Company in the best interest of shareholders. The board of directors therefore recommends you vote “FOR” each of the nominees set forth below. |

Proposal 2: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |
|
What am I |
You are being asked to ratify the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. The board of directors believes that asking shareholders to ratify the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP is consistent with best practices in corporate governance. The board of directors therefore recommends that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP as Boxlight’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. |
The Audit Committee has selected and appointed the firm Cherry Bekaert LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm to examine our financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2026. Cherry Bekaert audited our 2025 financial statements and Forvis Mazars, LLP audited our 2024 annual financial statements. We expect a representative of Cherry Bekaert LLP will attend the Annual Meeting to respond to any shareholder questions that may be asked and will be given the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire.
Ratification of the selection of Cherry Bekaert LLP is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise. The board of directors is submitting the selection to our stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the selection is not ratified, the Audit Committee will consider whether it is appropriate to select another registered public accounting firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different registered public accounting firm at any time after the Annual Meeting if it determines such a change would be in the interests of the Company and its stockholders.
FEES PAID TO THE INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The following table presents fees for professional audit services and other services rendered to us by Cherry Bekaert LLP for our fiscal year ended 2025 and Forvis Mazars, LLP for our fiscal year ended 2024.

(1) Audit fees consist of fees for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-Q reports and for services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.
(2) Tax fees include the preparation of federal tax returns as well as tax planning and consultation on new tax legislation, regulations, rulings, and developments.
(3) All other fees are fees billed for any services not included in the first two categories. For 2024, these fees were related to the Company’s Form S-3 shelf registration statement that was filed with the SEC on January 1, 2025 and the private placement transaction that occurred in February 2025.
AUDIT COMMITTEE POLICY ON PRE-APPROVAL OF AUDIT AND PERMISSIBLE NON-AUDIT SERVICES OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
In accordance with the SEC’s auditor independence rules, the Audit Committee has established the following policies and procedures by which it approves in advance any audit or permissible non-audit services to be provided to the Company by its independent registered public accounting firm.
Prior to the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm for any fiscal year’s audit, management submits to the Audit Committee for approval lists of recurring audits, audit-related, tax and other services expected to be provided by the auditor during that fiscal year. The Audit Committee adopts pre-approval schedules describing the recurring services that it has pre-approved, and is informed on a timely basis, and in any event by the next scheduled meeting, of any such services rendered by the independent registered public accounting firm and the related fees.
The fees for any services listed in a pre-approval schedule 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. The Audit Committee will require additional pre-approval if circumstances arise where it becomes necessary to engage the independent registered public accounting firm for additional services above the amount of fees originally pre-approved. Any audit or non-audit service not listed in a pre-approval schedule must be separately pre-approved by the Audit Committee on a case-by-case basis. Every request to adopt or amend a pre-approval schedule or to provide services that are not listed in a pre-approval schedule must include a statement by the independent registered public accounting firm as to whether, in their view, the request is consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.
The Audit Committee will not grant approval for:
• any services prohibited by applicable law or by any rule or regulation of the SEC or other regulatory body applicable to the Company;
• provision by the independent registered public accounting firm to the Company of strategic consulting services of the type typically provided by management consulting firms; or
• the retention of the independent registered public accounting firm in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the independent registered public accounting firm, the tax treatment of which may not be clear under the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations and which it is reasonable to conclude will be subject to audit procedures during an audit of the Company’s financial statements.
Subject to certain exceptions, tax services proposed to be provided by the auditor to any director, officer or employee of the Company who is in an accounting role or financial reporting oversight role must be approved by the Audit Committee on a case-by-case basis where such services are to be paid for by the Company, and the Audit Committee will be informed of any services to be provided to such individuals that are not to be paid for by the Company.
In determining whether to grant pre-approval of any non-audit services in the “all other” category, the Audit Committee will consider all relevant facts and circumstances, including the following four basic guidelines:
• whether the service creates a mutual or conflicting interest between the auditor and the Company;
• whether the service places the auditor in the position of auditing his or her own work;
• whether the service results in the auditor acting as management or an employee of the Company; and
• whether the service places the auditor in a position of being an advocate for the Company.
VOTE REQUIRED
The affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at our 2026 Annual Meeting is required to ratify Proposal No. 2.

With respect to the audit of Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, the Audit Committee:
• has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management;
• has discussed with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU section 380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T; and
• has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm their independence.
Based on these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the board of directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Respectfully submitted by the members of the Audit Committee of the board of directors:

Analysis of the Information Presented in the Pay versus Performance Table
We generally seek to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore do not specifically align our performance measures with “compensation actually paid” (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table.
Compensation Actually Paid and Net Loss
Our Company has not historically looked to net income (loss) as a performance measure for our executive compensation program, and, accordingly, the “Compensation Actually Paid” to our PEOs and the average amount of compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding our PEOs) is generally not aligned with net income (loss) for 2023, 2024 and 2025. Our net loss was $23.8 million in 2025, $28.3 million in 2024 and $39.2 million in 2023.
Our net loss in 2025 included $1.4million in loss on warrant issuance, $2.9million in IEEPA tariffs and $1.1 million in inventory write downs related to Inventory NRV write-downs, our net loss in 2024 included non-cash accelerated amortization expense of $12.3 million and our net loss in 2023 included non-cash impairment charges of $25.2 million.
Description of Relationship Between CEO and non-CEO Compensation Actually Paid and Company Total Shareholder Return
We do not use cumulative TSR as a performance measure in our executive compensation program, and the amount of total compensation actually paid to our PEOs and the average amount of compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding our PEOs) is generally not aligned with the Company’s cumulative TSR over the three years presented in the table above.

Proposal 3: Amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to Increase the Number of Authorized Shares of Class A common stock to 55,000,000 |
Our board of directors believes it is in the Company’s best interests and the best interests of our shareholders to authorize an increase in the number of our authorized shares of Class A common stock and a corresponding increase in the total number of our shares of authorized stock.
Background and purpose of the proposal
On December 22, 2025, we effected a 1-for-6 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A common stock”) and proportionately decreased the number of total authorized shares of Class A common stock from 25,000,000 shares to 4,166,667 shares. The purpose of the Reverse Stock Split was to manage continued compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share of Class A common stock for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
On April 22, 2026, the Record Date for the Annual Meeting, we had 4,001,707 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding, no shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding, 1,586,620 shares of Series B preferred stock issued and outstanding and no shares of Series C preferred stock issued and outstanding.
As of April 20, 2026, we had reserved an aggregate of 600,000 shares of Class A common stock for future issuance, consisting of (i) 45,077 shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance upon the settlement of outstanding restricted stock units; (ii) 73,500 shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of pre-funded warrants outstanding at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share; (iii) 0 shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of all other outstanding warrants at a weighed exercise price of $19.39 per share (excluding the 2025 Common Warrants, as further discussed below); and (iv) 1,024 shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding stock options with a weighted average exercise price of $50.154 per share.
In order to continue to operate our business, we expect to need to raise additional capital, whether to refinance our outstanding indebtedness, satisfy redemption demands by the holders of our Series B or Series C Preferred Stock or to fund working capital needs. If the Company’s shareholders do not approve the Amendment (as defined below) at the Annual Meeting, the Company will be limited in its ability to raise additional capital through sales of Class A common stock or securities convertible or exercisable into Class A common stock. Furthermore, the Company uses awards of restricted stock units, stock options and other equity awards to attract, retain and incentivize directors, executive officers and employees. We believe it important to be able to continue such equity awards to further align the interest of our directors, executive officers and employees with those of our shareholders. For this reason, in addition to the reasons above, we believe an increase in the authorized shares is critical to the Company’s operations.
Our board of directors is asking our shareholders to approve an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized shares of Class A common stock from 4,166,667 to 55,000,000, and a corresponding increase to the total number of authorized shares of stock from 104,166,667 to 155,000,000 (the “Amendment”). If approved by the shareholders, we expect to file the Amendment shortly after such approval. The Amendment would become effective upon filing of an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada.
Our board of directors believes it is critical for our shareholders to authorize an increase in the number of our authorized shares of Class A common stock and a corresponding increase in the total number of our shares of authorized stock so that the Company can reserve for issuance shares of Class A common stock for the exercise of the 2025 Common Warrants, and the conversion of the Series B and Series C preferred stock, as well as offer the Company the flexibility to raise additional capital through sales of Class A common stock or securities convertible or exercisable into Class A common stock.
The Amendment could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect or delay or prevent a change in control of the Company by providing the Company the capability to engage in actions that would be dilutive to a potential acquiror, to pursue alternative transactions, or to otherwise increase the potential cost to acquire control of the Company. Thus, the proposed amendment may have the effect of discouraging future unsolicited takeover attempts.
The proposed increase in the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Class A common stock will not change the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding, nor will it have any immediate dilutive effect or change the rights of current holders of the Company’s Class A common stock. However, the issuance of additional shares of Class A common stock authorized by the Amendment may occur at times or under circumstances as to have a dilutive effect on earnings per share, book value per share or the percentage voting or ownership interest of the current holders of the Company’s Class A common stock.
Once the Amendment is approved, no further action by the shareholders would be necessary prior to the issuance of additional shares of Class A common stock unless required by law or the rules of any stock exchange or national securities association on which the Class A common stock is then listed or quoted. Under the Amendment, each of the newly authorized shares of Class A common stock will have the same rights and privileges as currently authorized Class A common stock. Adoption of the Amendment will not affect the rights of the holders of currently outstanding Class common stock of the Company nor will it change the par value of the Class A common stock, which will remain $0.0001 par value per share.
The text of the form of amendment to the Articles of Incorporation, which would be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effect the increase in the authorized shares of Class A common stock and the corresponding increase to the total authorized shares of stock, is set forth in Annex A to this Proxy Statement. The text of the form of Amendment accompanying this proxy statement is, however, subject to amendment to reflect any changes that may be required by the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada or that our board of directors may determine to be necessary or advisable ultimately to comply with applicable law and to effect the increase in authorized shares of Class A common stock and the corresponding increase in total authorized shares of stock.
VOTE REQUIRED
Proposal 3 requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock. We believe this proposal is a “routine” matter under Nasdaq continued listing rules, and, accordingly, brokers are allowed to vote on Proposal 3. However, abstentions and, in the event that Proposal 3 is deemed “non-routine” under Nasdaq continued listing rules, broker non-votes, if any, will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” this Proposal.

Proposal 4: Approve the Future Issuance of Shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and/or Securities Convertible Into or Exercisable for our Class A Common Stock Equal to 20% or More of our Class A Common Stock Outstanding in a Non-Public Transaction or Series of Transactions as Required by, and in accordance with, Nasdaq Marketplace Listing Rule 5635(d) |
Background and purpose of the proposal
The Company is seeking shareholder approval, as required by Nasdaq Marketplace Listing Rule 5635(d), to authorize the potential issuance of shares of its Class A Common Stock and/or securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A Common Stock in an amount equal to 20% or more of its outstanding Class A Common Stock in connection with a non-public transaction or series of transactions (“Issuance Proposal”).
In connection with this approval, the Company proposes to enter into an equity line of credit (“ELOC”) with one or more institutional investors, providing for a maximum aggregate commitment of up to $15 million over a term of up to 24 months. The ELOC would allow the Company to draw down funds at its sole discretion, with no obligation to utilize it in full. Any shares issued under the facility would be priced at a discount to the prevailing market price based on the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of up to 5%. The Company may pay a commitment fee of up to 5% of the total commitment, payable in cash, shares, or a combination.
Shares issued pursuant to the ELOC would be registered under an effective Form S-1 registration statement. The issuance would include an investor ownership limitation of 9.99% and would not contain any variable-rate debt features or repayment obligations. The maximum number of shares that may be issued under the proposed arrangement is approximately 50,833,334 shares. The Company intends to use any proceeds from the ELOC for general working capital purposes and to support the commercialization of its newly launched Symphony line, expected to hit the market in the second half of 2026. The Company currently expects to enter into the ELOC arrangement on or before July 31, 2026.
Accordingly, at the Annual Meeting, we are asking our stockholders to consider and approve this Issuance Proposal.
Stockholder Approval Requirement
Our Class A common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and, as such, we are subject to Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(d) requires us to obtain stockholder approval prior to the issuance of our Class A common stock in connection with certain non-public offerings involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by the Company of Class A common stock and/or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock equal to 20% or more of the Class A common stock outstanding before the issuance at a price less than the “Minimum Price.” Shares of our Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of warrants, options, debt instruments or other equity securities issued or granted in such non-public offerings will be considered shares issued in such a transaction in determining whether the 20% limit has been reached, except in certain circumstances. The “Minimum Price” is the lower of: (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price of the Class A common stock (“NOCP”); or (ii) the average NOCP for the five trading days, in either case immediately preceding the signing of a binding agreement.
We need to raise additional capital to maintain our operations and meet our short-term liquidity requirements. If we cannot raise additional capital and satisfy our near-term debt obligations, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We continue to consider all strategic alternatives, including seeking additional debt or equity capital, disposing of assets, other strategic transactions and/or other restructuring measures.
Due to the current market price of our Class A common stock and current market conditions generally, it is unlikely that we would be able to raise a sufficient amount of capital needed to support our ongoing operational and liquidity needs without exceeding Nasdaq’s 20% limitation. Because we may seek additional capital or issue shares that trigger the requirements of Rule 5635(d), we are seeking stockholder approval in advance, so that we will be able to move quickly to take full advantage of any opportunities that may develop. Unless we return to our stockholders for further approval, which would be required by Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(b) in the event such transaction or series of transactions would result in a change of control, any future transaction or series of transactions subject to the approval sought by this Proposal No. 4 will not result in a change of control.
We hereby submit this Proposal No. 4 to our stockholders for their approval of the potential issuance of shares of our Common Stock, or securities exercisable for or convertible into our Common Stock (whether through the sale of equity or convertible debt), in one or more non-public capital-raising transactions, or offerings, subject to the following limitations:
• the aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock (or Class A common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of the securities sold) will not exceed 20,833,334 shares, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions effected prior to the offerings;
• the maximum aggregate dollar amount will not exceed $15.0 million, which would include both the original offering as well as any additional proceeds that might be raised upon exercise of warrants that potentially would be included in the financing transaction;
• the maximum discount to market will not exceed 5% (calculated as described above); and
• the time frame for the issuance of the securities that would be sold in accordance with the approval of this Proposal No. 4 shall not exceed three months from the date of stockholder approval, provided that, in the course of trying to complete such proposed offering, if it appears that we will be unable to complete it within such three-month period, we may seek approval from Nasdaq for additional time, up to a total of six months from the date of stockholder approval.
If this proposal is approved, we will not solicit further authorization from our stockholders prior to the issuance of any shares of our Class A common stock authorized by Proposal No. 4. If our stockholders do not approve this Proposal, we may not use shares of our Class A common stock in excess of the Nasdaq Marketplace Listing Rule 5635(d) 20% share limitation or a similar proposal that is in accordance with Marketplace Rule 5635(d) and, if applicable, Marketplace Rule 5635(b), is obtained. The failure to obtain stockholder approval of this Proposal may have a material negative impact upon us as it will constrain our ability to meet our short-term liquidity requirements.
Potential Effects of this Proposal
The issuance of shares of our Class A common stock, or other securities convertible into shares of our Class A common stock, in accordance with any offerings would dilute, and thereby reduce, each existing stockholder’s proportionate ownership in our Class A common stock. The stockholders do not have preemptive rights to subscribe to additional shares that may be issued by the Company in order to maintain their proportionate ownership of the Common Stock. The issuance of shares of our Class A common Stock could also have a dilutive effect on our book value per share and on any future earnings per share, in the sale or resale of any such shares could cause prevailing market prices of our Class A common Stock to decline.
The issuance of shares of Class A common Stock, or securities convertible into our Class A common Stock, in one or more non-public offerings could have an anti-takeover effect. Such issuance could dilute the voting power of a person seeking control of the Company, thereby deterring or rendering more difficult a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or an extraordinary corporate transaction opposed by the Company.
The level of potential dilution cannot be precisely determined at this time, but as discussed above, we may not issue more than 20,833,334 shares of Class A common stock in the aggregate pursuant to the authority requested from stockholders under this Issuance Proposal (subject to adjustment for any reverse stock split, and including, for this purpose, shares issuable upon conversion, options, warrants, convertible debt or other securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A common stock). It is possible that some of the shares we issue could be acquired by one or
more investors who could hold a large block of our Class A common stock, even if such ownership does not amount to a change of control. Nevertheless, this would concentrate voting power in the hands of a few stockholders who could exercise greater influence on our operations or the outcome of matters put to a vote of stockholders in the future.
Vote Required
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting is required for stockholder approval of this Issuance Proposal. Abstentions, if any, will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum but will not be counted as votes cast and therefore will not be counted for purposes of determining whether this Proposal No. 4 has been approved. Brokerage firms do not have authority to vote customers’ unvoted shares held by the firms in street name on this proposal. As a result, any shares not voted by a customer will be treated as a broker non-vote. Broker non-votes, if any, will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum but will not be counted for purposes of determining whether Proposal No. 4 has been approved.
Board Recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” this Issuance Proposal.

On January 31, 2018, the Company entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with an entity owned and controlled by our now Chairman and former CEO, Michael Pope. The Management Agreement was separate and apart from Mr. Pope’s employment agreement. The Management Agreement was effective as of the first day of the same month that Mr. Pope’s employment with the Company terminates, and for a term of 13 months, Mr. Pope will provide consulting services to the Company including sourcing and analyzing strategic acquisitions, assisting with financing activities, and other services. As consideration for the services provided, the Company will pay a management fee equal to 0.375% of the consolidated net revenues of the Company, payable in monthly installments, not to exceed $250,000 in any calendar year. At his option, Mr. Pope may defer payment until the end of each year and receive payment in the form of shares of Class A common stock of the Company.
On January 4, 2024, Mr. Pope’s employment with the Company terminated. In accordance with the Management Agreement, Mr. Pope is expected to continue providing consulting services to the Company for the subsequent 13 months, with such agreement terminating on February 2025.

On March 30, 2026, in the absence of a chief executive officer, the Company’s board of directors delegated to Mr. Pope the authority and responsibility to perform the functions customarily performed by the principal executive officer of the Company for purposes of applicable U.S. securities laws and related rules.
OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On May 27, 2025, we entered into an inventory financing agreement with J.J. Astor & Co., a Utah corporation (“JJ Astor”). Under the agreement, we may finance 80% of the purchase of certain finished goods inventory from one of our manufacturers and suppliers of such inventory up to an aggregate outstanding amount of $9 million. The term of the agreement is one year. Each advance under the inventory financing agreement is payable by us within 90 days at a rate of $1.0535 per eighty cents advanced by JJ Astor. Any failure by us to make a payment in full when due under the inventory financing agreement constitutes an event of default. In the event of such default by us, the aggregate outstanding balance owing to JJ Astor is automatically increased by 10% and begins to accrue interest at the rate of 19% per annum, compounded daily. Mr. Pope is an affiliate of JJ Astor. Our Audit Committee and Board of Directors have reviewed the terms of the transaction and have deemed the terms to be on an arms-length basis.
Under the Agreement, the Company may finance the purchase of certain finished goods inventory from one of the Company’s manufacturers and suppliers of such inventory up to an aggregate outstanding amount of $6 million. The term of the Agreement is one year. Each advance under the Agreement is payable by the Company within 90 days at a rate of 5.35% of the amount advanced by J.J ASTOR. Title to the product remains with J.J. ASTOR until payment is made by the Company. Any failure by the Company to make a payment in full when due under the Agreement constitutes an event of default. In the event of such default by the Company, the aggregate outstanding balance owing to J.J ASTOR is automatically increased by 10% and begins to accrue interest at the rate of 19% per annum, compounded daily.
On November 3, 2025, the Company and J.J. Astor entered into an amendment and restatement of the Agreement (the “Restated Agreement”). Under the Restated Agreement, the Company may finance 80% of the purchase of certain finished goods inventory from one of the Company’s manufacturers and suppliers of such inventory up to an aggregate outstanding amount of $9 million, a $3 million increase from the maximum amount under the original Agreement. Each advance under the Restated Agreement remains payable by the Company within 90 days at a rate of $1.0535 per $0.80 advanced. The term of the Restated Agreement is until November 3, 2026, unless mutually extended or earlier terminated by J.J. Astor.
Under the Restated Agreement, J.J. Astor may elect from time to time to convert all or a portion of the amounts owed by the Company into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. J.J. Astor can require the Company to register any such shares for public resale with the Securities & Exchange Commission.
On April 1, 2026, Boxlight Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) entered into an amendment to that certain inventory finance agreement, dated May 27, 2025, as amended and restated on November 7, 2025, (as so amended through the date hereof, the “Amended and Restated Agreement”) with J.J. Astor & Co., a Utah corporation (“J.J. Astor”). Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Agreement, $556,200 of the outstanding balance was converted into 600,000 shares of common stock (the “Conversion Shares”) at a conversion price of $0.927 per share (the “Conversion Price”). Further, the parties agreed that, if the aggregate proceeds from the sale of the Conversion Shares are less than $556,200, the Company shall pay the shortfall in cash within five (5) Trading Days. “Proceeds Protection” means the Company’s obligation to ensure aggregate proceeds of at least $556,200 are received by J.J. Astor from the sale of 600,000 Conversion Shares. Michael Pope, Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, and its former president and chief executive officer, is the chief executive officer of J.J. Astor. J.J. Astor is beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by a private investment fund managed by Mr. Pope.

If your shares of our Class A common stock are held by a broker, bank, or other nominee (in “street name”), you will receive instructions from them on how to vote your shares. If your shares are held by a broker and you do not give the broker specific instructions on how to vote your shares, your broker may vote your shares at its discretion on “routine” matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. However, your shares will not be voted on any “non-routine” matters. An absence of voting instructions on any “non-routine” matters will result in a “broker non-vote.”
We believe the following proposals are “routine” matters under Nasdaq rules to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting:
• Proposal 2: Ratification of the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP as the Company’s independent auditor for fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.
• Proposal 3: To amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock from 4,166,667 to 55,000,000.
All other matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting are “non-routine” matters. As such, if you hold all or any portion of your shares in street name and you do not give your broker or bank specific instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will not be voted on the following “non-routine” matters:
• Proposal 1: Election of the five directors named in this Proxy Statement.
• Proposal 4: To approve the future issuance of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and/or securities convertible into or exercisable for our Class A common stock equal to 20% or more of our Class A common stock outstanding in a non-public transaction or series of transactions as required by, and in accordance with, Nasdaq Marketplace Listing Rule 5635(d).

WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF GIVING A PROXY?
WHICHEVER METHOD YOU USE TO TRANSMIT YOUR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS, YOUR SHARES OF BOXLIGHT CLASS A COMMON STOCK WILL BE VOTED AS YOU DIRECT. IF YOU DESIGNATE THE PROXY NAMED ON THE PROXY CARD TO VOTE ON YOUR BEHALF, BUT DO NOT SPECIFY HOW TO VOTE YOUR SHARES, THEY WILL BE VOTED AS FOLLOWS:
• Proposal 1: FOR ALL NOMINEES for the election of directors;
• Proposal 2: FOR the ratification of the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP as the Company’s independent auditor for fiscal year ending December 31, 2026;
• Proposal 3: FOR the approval to amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock from 4,166,667 to 55,000,000;
• Proposal 4: FOR the approval of the future issuance of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and/or securities convertible into or exercisable for our Class A common stock equal to 20% or more of our Class A common stock outstanding in a non-public transaction or series of transactions as required by, and in accordance with, Nasdaq Marketplace Listing Rule 5635(d); and
• For any other matters that may arise at the Annual Meeting, such matters will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the persons voting the proxy on any other matter properly brought before the meeting.
If you vote in advance using one of the methods described above, then you may still attend and vote at the meeting. Please see Revoking a Proxy below for additional details.
If you vote your proxy, your vote must be received by 11:59 p.m. U.S. Eastern Standard Time on June 1, 2026 in order for your vote to be counted.
WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF ABSTENTIONS AND BROKER NON-VOTES?
Abstentions and broker-non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining the presence of quorum but will have no effect on the outcome of the votes for Proposals 1 and 2 and 3 set forth in the Proxy Statement. However, abstentions and, in the event that Proposal 3 and 4 are deemed “non-routine” under Nasdaq continued listing rules, broker non-votes, if any, will have the effect of a vote “against” Proposal 3 and 4.
An abstention represents the action by a shareholder to refrain from voting “for” or “against” a proposal. “Broker non-votes” represent votes that could have been cast on a particular matter by a broker, as a shareholder of record, but that were not cast because the broker (i) lacked discretionary voting authority on the matter and did not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares or (ii) had discretionary voting authority but nevertheless refrained from voting on the matter.
WHAT IS A QUORUM?
Under our amended and restated bylaws, a quorum at all meetings of our shareholders requires 45% of the holders of our shares of capital stock entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy.
HOW MANY VOTES ARE NEEDED FOR APPROVAL OF EACH PROPOSAL?
Proposal 1 requires a plurality of the combined voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote to elect each nominee as a director. Proposal 2 requires the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote for approval of each proposal. Proposal 3 and 4 requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock. Accordingly, abstentions and, in the event that Proposal 3 and 4 are deemed “non-routine” under Nasdaq continued listing rules, broker non-votes, if any, will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” this Proposal 3 and 4.
HOW ARE PROXIES SOLICITED FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING AND WHO IS PAYING FOR SUCH SOLICITATION?
The board of directors of the company is soliciting your vote for the Annual Meeting and the Company will be paying for such solicitation. In addition to sending you these materials and posting them on the internet, some of our employees may contact you by telephone, by mail, by fax, by email or in person. None of these employees will receive any extra compensation for doing this. We may reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians for their reasonable out-of-pocket costs in forwarding these proxy materials to shareholders.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN IF I RECEIVED MORE THAN ONE NOTICE?
This may be in error or otherwise reflect that you hold shares in different names. In addition, we may send reminders to ensure that shareholders vote their shares.
I SHARE AN ADDRESS WITH ANOTHER SHAREHOLDER, AND WE RECEIVED ONLY ONE PAPER COPY OF THE PROXY MATERIALS. HOW MAY I OBTAIN AN ADDITIONAL COPY OF THE PROXY MATERIALS?

Any such shareholder proposal must meet all the requirements for inclusion established by the Securities and Exchange Commission in effect at the time, including Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act.
Any other proposal to nominate a candidate for director or propose any other business at the Company’s 2027 annual meeting of shareholders must be received, in writing, by the Secretary of the Company no later than 90 nor more than 120 days before the meeting (which deadline is currently expected to be between February 2, 2027 and March 4, 2027, respectively); provided, however, that in the event that the date of the Company’s 2027 annual meeting is advanced more than 30 days prior to, or delayed by more than 70 days after, the anniversary of the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting, notice must be delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the Company’s 2027 annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (i) the 90th day prior to the Company’s 2027 annual meeting or (ii) the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the Company’s 2027 annual meeting of shareholders is first made. The written notice provided to the Secretary of the Company must meet the requirements of, and be in compliance with, the Company’s bylaws, as well as Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act for a proposal to nominate a candidate for director. Because the advance notice provisions of the Company’s bylaws require earlier notice than Rule 14a-19, all notices required under Rule 14a-19 must also be received by our Corporate Secretary not later than the close of business on March 4, 2027.
Proposals should be addressed to Attention: Ryan Zeek/Chief Financial Officer, Boxlight Corporation, 2750 Premiere Parkway, Ste. 900, Duluth, Georgia 30097.

Delinquent Section 16(A) Reports |
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors and executive officers and persons who own beneficially more than 10% of our Common Stock to file reports of initial statements of ownership and statements of changes in ownership of our Common Stock with the SEC. To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on the information furnished to the Company, all directors, executive officers, and 10% shareholders complied with all applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Supplemental Information about Financial Measures |
To provide investors with additional insight and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and decision-making surrounding operations, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) with EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both non-GAAP financial measures of earnings.
EBITDA represents net loss before income tax expense, interest expense, net, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA, adjusted for stock compensation expense and changes in fair value of derivative liabilities, purchase accounting impact for fair valuing inventory and deferred revenue, impairment of goodwill, and severance charges. Our management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as financial measures to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to assess the strength of the underlying operations of our business. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measure that is derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. We find this especially useful when reviewing results of operations, which include large non-cash amortizations of intangibles assets from acquisitions. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
