Item 5.03.          Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
 
Effective June 27, 2025, HG Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) amended its Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) to permit stockholders to take action by less than unanimous written consent upon obtaining the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote were present and voted (the “Amendment”). The Certificate of Incorporation previously provided that any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, or any action which may be taken at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, was signed by all the stockholders entitled to vote thereon. A detailed description of the Amendment is contained in the Company’s definitive proxy statement, as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on Schedule 14A on May 13, 2025.
 
The Amendment was approved by the Company’s board of directors on April 30, 2025, subject to stockholder approval, and approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting (as defined below), as further described in Item 5.07 below.
 
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
 
Item 5.07.          Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
 
The Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) was held on June 26, 2025. At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted upon three proposals. The proposals are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement, as filed with the SEC on Schedule 14A on May 13, 2025. A brief description and the final vote results for each proposal follow. At the Annual Meeting, 1,871,316 shares of common stock, or 75.74% of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote on each matter presented for vote at the Annual Meeting, were represented in person or by proxy.
