(NASDAQ: SGMA), an electronic manufacturing services company, previously announced in a press release on September 29, 2021 that its Special Meeting of stockholders that was scheduled on that day had been adjourned without conducting any business due to insufficient shareholder votes represented by proxy or in person to constitute a quorum of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock.

Regarding Proposal 1 to approve the issuance to the stockholders of Wagz as merger consideration pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger as described in the Proxy Statement, 87.3% of votes were cast in favor of the Proposal. Regarding Proposal 2 to approve the adoption of the SigmaTron International, Inc. 2021 Employee Stock Option Plan, 83.4% of the votes were cast in favor of the Proposal. Accordingly, both Proposals passed with significant majorities.

I would like to thank the stockholders for their support of the Wagz transaction and both related Proposals. Please note that while both Proposals passed, the closing of the Wagz transaction remains subject to satisfying all conditions to closing set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, for both Wagz and the Company, as described in further detail in the Proxy Statement.
