Item 8.01.  Other Events.

2021 Annual Meeting Date

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Crawford United Corporation (the “Company”) has determined that the Company’s 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2021 Annual Meeting”) will be held on May 25, 2021. Holders of record of the Company’s Class A and Class B common shares at the close of business on April 9, 2021 will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the meeting. While the expected date of the 2021 Annual Meeting represents a change of more than 30 days from the anniversary of the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2020 Annual Meeting”), because the Company is advancing the date of the meeting, the deadline for the receipt of shareholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2021 Annual Meeting remains the same as was specified in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2020 Annual Meeting.

In addition, the Company may use its discretion in voting shares by proxy with respect to matters proposed at the 2021 Annual Meeting that are not included in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2021 Annual Meeting, unless the Company receives notice of such matters prior to April 9, 2021.
