    Effectiveness of Previously-Announced Management Promotions and Transitions
     
    On May 27, 2025, Bel Fuse Inc. (“Bel” or the “Company”) held its 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2025 Annual Meeting”). On the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting, the previously-announced management transitions and promotions became effective consistent with the Company’s prior disclosures.
     
    More specifically, and consistent with previous disclosures, effective immediately following the 2025 Annual Meeting on May 27, 2025 (the “Effective Time”):  (i) Farouq Tuweiq (who prior to the Effective Time served as Bel’s Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), principal financial officer and Treasurer), became the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer; (ii) Daniel Bernstein (who prior to the Effective Time served as Bel’s President and Chief Executive Officer and as a director of the Company), became non-executive Chairman of Bel’s Board of Directors (the “Board”); and (iii) Lynn Hutkin (who prior to the Effective Time served as Bel’s Vice President of Financial Reporting and Investor Relations, principal accounting officer and Secretary), became Bel’s CFO (principal financial officer), Principal Accounting Officer, Treasurer and Secretary.
     
    Also consistent with previous disclosures, and pursuant to prior Board authorization, on May 27, 2025, the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting, the Board was expanded to ten directors and Mr. Tuweiq’s appointment as a director on the Board (in the class of directors whose terms expired at the 2025 Annual Meeting) became effective. As approved by the Board as previously disclosed, on May 27, 2025, Mr. Tuweiq also took his seat on the Executive Committee of the Board. As reported in this Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 5.07 below, each of Mr. Tuweiq (the Company’s new President and Chief Executive Officer) and Mr. Bernstein (Bel’s new non-executive Chairman of the Board) was elected by the shareholders at the 2025 Annual Meeting to a full three-year term on the Board expiring at the Company’s 2028 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
     
    Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
