PROXY STATEMENT

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

GENERAL INFORMATION

This Proxy Statement is furnished by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Biomerica, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”), in connection with the solicitation of proxies for use at the our Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on December 12, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., Pacific Time (the “Annual Meeting”) or at such other time and place to which the Annual Meeting may be adjourned or postponed. The Annual Meeting will be held both virtually via the internet at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/BMRA2025 by using the 16-digit control number on the proxy card or voting instruction form that accompanied the proxy materials or by attending live at our principal executive office, 17571 Von Karman Avenue, Irvine, California 92614. The Annual Meeting has been called for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Notice”). Our proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement and form of proxy card or voting instruction form and the Notice of Annual Shareholders Meeting, are being provided to shareholders beginning on October , 2025.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING TO BE HELD ON DECEMBER 12, 2025.

Our proxy materials, including our Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting, our annual report for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, and proxy card are available on the Internet at www.proxyvote.com, and at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) rules, we are pleased to take advantage of notice and access and to furnish proxy materials to our stockholders over the Internet.

RECORD DATE AND OUTSTANDING SHARES

The close of business on October 15, 2025, has been set as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”). As of the Record Date, there was outstanding and entitled to vote an aggregate of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.08 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), held of record by approximately stockholders. However, the actual number of shareholders is unknown as brokers and other institutions hold the majority of the Company’s stock on behalf of other beneficial owners.

VOTING RIGHTS, QUORUM, & VOTES REQUIRED

The presence, in-person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock held on the Record Date and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on each matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting.

A broker non-vote occurs when a broker holding shares in street name for a beneficial owner does not receive instructions from the beneficial owner about how to vote its shares. Under applicable law and the listing rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”), brokers have the discretion to vote on routine matters (Proposal Nos. 3, 5, and 6) without instructions from the beneficial owner. If a beneficial owner does not provide its broker instructions on how to vote its shares on non-routine matters (Proposal Nos. 1, 2, and 4), no votes will be cast on its behalf with respect to those proposals. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists.

-2-

The voting requirements to approve each of the proposals to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting, as well as the effects of abstentions and broker non-votes on each of the proposals, are as follows:

PROPOSAL |  | VOTING REQUIREMENT |  | EFFECT OF ABSTENTIONS |  | EFFECT OF BROKER NON-VOTES
Proposal No. 1: To elect five directors, each to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor has been elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, death or removal. |  | Each director nominee shall be elected by a plurality vote of the stockholders of the Company present in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors |  | A “WITHHOLD” vote will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. |  | Broker non-votes will not count as votes cast on this proposal and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.
Proposal No. 2: To approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation paid to our named executive officers. |  | Requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the stockholders of the Company present in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter. |  | An “ABSTAIN” vote will be included in the total number of shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. |  | Broker non-votes will not count as votes cast on this proposal and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.
Proposal No. 3: To ratify the selection of Haskell & White LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending May 31, 2026. |  | Requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the stockholders of the Company present in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter. |  | An “ABSTAIN” vote will be included in the total number of shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. |  | Because a bank, broker, dealer or other nominee may generally vote without instructions on this proposal, we do not expect any broker non-votes in connection with this proposal.
Proposal No. 4: To approve an amendment to our 2024 Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2024 Incentive Plan by 200,000 shares |  | Requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the stockholders of the Company present in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter. |  | An “ABSTAIN” vote will be included in the total number of shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. |  | Broker non-votes will not count as votes cast on this proposal and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.
Proposal No. 5: To approve an amendment to the Articles to authorize the Board, at their discretion, to effect an increase in the number of authorized shares of our Common Stock from 25,000,000 to 300,000,000. |  | Requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast. |  | An “ABSTAIN” vote will not be included in the total number of votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal. |  | Because a bank, broker, dealer or other nominee may generally vote without instructions on this proposal, we do not expect any broker non-votes in connection with this proposal.
Proposal No. 6: To approve an adjournment of the Annual Meeting. |  | Requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the stockholders of the Company present in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter. |  | An “ABSTAIN” vote will be included in the total number of shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. |  | Because a bank, broker, dealer or other nominee may generally vote without instructions on this proposal, we do not expect any broker non-votes in connection with this proposal.

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of elections appointed for the meeting, who will separately tabulate, for each proposal, affirmative and negative votes, abstentions, and broker non-votes.

If the envelope is missing and your shares are held with a broker, please mail your completed voting instruction card to the address specified therein.

TERMS OF THE PROXY

The enclosed proxy indicates the matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting and provides boxes to be marked to indicate the manner in which the stockholder’s shares are to be voted with respect to such matters. By appropriately marking the boxes, a stockholder may specify whether the proxy shall vote for or against or shall be without authority to vote the shares represented by the proxy. The proxy also confers upon the proxy discretionary voting authority with respect to such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

If the proxy is executed properly and is received by the Company prior to the Annual Meeting, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted accordingly. A proxy may be revoked at any time prior to its exercise (i) by resubmitting their vote online or by telephone or (ii) by attending the Annual Meeting and electing to vote at the Annual Meeting.

During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, all directors attended 75% or more of the aggregate meetings of the Board and the Committees on which they served.

NOMINATING AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE

The Company has a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter which may be viewed on the Company’s website at www.biomerica.com.

The Company has a standing Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Governance Committee”). The Governance Committee regularly assesses the appropriate size of the Board and whether any vacancies on the Board are expected due to retirement or otherwise arise. In the event that vacancies are anticipated or otherwise arise, the Governance Committee utilizes a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating director candidates. The Governance Committee will consider candidates recommended by current directors, professional search firms, stockholders or other persons.

To select a director candidate, the Governance Committee undergoes a series of discussions and review of the candidates. Once the Governance Committee has identified a prospective nominee, the Governance Committee will evaluate the prospective nominee in the context of the then current composition of the Board and will consider a variety of other factors, including the prospective nominee’s public company experience, corporate governance experience, business, technology, strategy, and industry experience, finance and financial reporting experience, and other attributes that would be expected to contribute to an effective Board. The Board seeks to identify nominees who possess a diverse range of experience, skills, areas of expertise, industry knowledge, business judgment, and professional ethics and values. Although the Governance Committee does not have a formal policy with respect to diversity, it has a well-established process to identify director nominees, and considers diversity when evaluating candidates for director nominees. The Board does not evaluate stockholder nominees differently than any other nominee.

Our Board will consider stockholder nominations for directors if we receive timely written notice, in proper form, of the nomination. To be timely, the notice must be received within the time frame discussed below in this Proxy Statement under the heading “Date For Submission of Stockholder Proposals For Next Annual Meeting.” To be in proper form, the notice must, among other matters, include each nominee’s written consent to serve as a director for the Company if elected at the next annual meeting, a description of all arrangements or understandings between the nominating stockholder and the nominee, and certain other information about the nominating stockholder and the nominee.

The Governance Committee met four times during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, the Committee consisted of Dr. Jane Emerson, Mr. David Moatazedi and Ms. Catherine Coste with Dr. Jane Emerson serving as Chairperson of the Governance Committee. Following our fiscal year end, on June 4, 2025, Ms. Catherine Coste resigned as an independent member of the Board, thereby vacating her position as a member of the Governance Committee.

On October 7, 2025, Mr. Gary Huff was appointed to serve as a member of the Governance Committee. After the Annual Meeting, it is anticipated that Mr. Gary Huff will serve as Chair of the Governance Committee and Mr. David Moatazedi and Mr. Eric Bing Chin will remain members.

The Compensation Committee may delegate authority to the chief executive officer or the chief financial officer to grant equity incentive plan awards to our non-executive employees consistent with the parameters approved in advance by the compensation committee.

Historically, our Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice-chairperson have provided input and recommendations to the Compensation Committee on the compensation of executive officers and members of the Board. In addition, representatives from our executive management team finance function have provided information or recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding design of any cash and equity incentive programs. Also, while the Compensation Committee does not officially retain an executive compensation consultant, it does obtain industry and peer-group compensation information from certain national compensation consulting firms and other industry resources. The Compensation Committee reviews all of this input and information in determining and setting director and executive officer compensation plans. All decisions affecting executive officer compensation are made by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion.

The Compensation Committee met four times during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. One Compensation Committee meeting was held without management, and three Compensation Committee meetings were held with management attending at least a portion of the meeting. For the fiscal year-end May 31, 2025, the Compensation Committee was comprised of Mr. David Moatazedi, Dr. Jane Emerson and Ms. Catherine Coste, with Mr. David Moatazedi serving as Chairperson of the Compensation Committee.

The Audit Committee has the authority to conduct any investigation appropriate to fulfilling its responsibilities, and it has direct access to all of our employees and to the independent auditor. The Audit Committee also has the ability to retain, at the Company’s expense and without further approval of the Board, special legal, accounting, or other consultants or experts that it deems necessary in the performance of its duties.

The Audit Committee met seven times during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, the Audit Committee consisted of Ms. Catherine Coste, Mr. David Moatazedi, and Dr. Jane Emerson with Ms. Catherine Coste serving as Chairperson of the Audit Committee.

-10-

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

The Board reviews the independence of each director when he or she is elected to the Board and monitors their independence on a continual basis. The Board considers the transactions and relationships between each member and the Company in determining independence. The Board determines independence based on the definition of “Director Independence” as defined by SEC rules and as determined in accordance with Rule 5605 of the Marketplace Rules of Nasdaq. Based upon that review, the Board has affirmatively determined that Mr. Eric Bing Chin, Mr. David Moatazedi, Mr. Gary Huff, and Dr. Jane Emerson are independent, (collectively, the “Independent Directors”).

BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE

The Board selects a Chairperson in a manner it determines to be in the best interests of the Company. It is in the Board’s discretion to determine whether the same individual should serve as both the Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board or whether those roles should be separated. This flexibility permits the Board to organize its functions and conduct its business in a manner it deems most effective in then-prevailing circumstances and to select the individual it considers to be best-suited to serve as Chairperson of the Board at any particular time. At this time, the Board has not yet appointed a new person to serve as the Chairperson of the Board.

BOARD ROLE IN RISK OVERSIGHT

The Board is responsible for oversight of material risks facing the Company, including financial, cybersecurity, and compliance risks, while our management team is responsible for the day-to-day management of risk. In addition, the Board has delegated oversight of certain categories of risk to the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee, which are comprised entirely of independent directors. The Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee respectively report to the Board as appropriate on matters that involve specific areas of risk that each committee oversees.

Financial, Compliance and Controls Risks

The Audit Committee has scheduled periodic and annual reviews and discussions with management regarding significant risk exposures and incident metrics, including those relating to global financial, accounting, and treasury matters, internal audit and controls, and legal and regulatory compliance. These discussions cover the steps management has taken to monitor, control, and report such exposures, as well as the Company’s policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management.

Employee Compensation Risks

The Compensation Committee oversees management of risks relating to the Company’s compensation plans and programs. The Company’s management and the Compensation Committee have assessed the risks associated with the Company’s compensation policies and practices for all employees, including non-executive officers. These include risks relating to setting ambitious targets for our employees’ compensation or the vesting of their equity awards, our emphasis on at-risk equity-based compensation, discrepancies in the values of equity-based compensation depending on employee tenure relative to increases in stock price over time and the potential impact of such factors on the retention or decision-making of our employees, particularly our senior management. Based on the results of this assessment, the Company does not believe that its compensation policies and practices for all employees, including non-executive officers, create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The information in this Report of the Audit Committee is not deemed “soliciting material” or to be “filed” with the SEC.

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process including the systems of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report with management including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

The Audit Committee reviewed with the independent auditors, who are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited consolidated financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, their judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company’s accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) including Auditing Standard No. 1301, “Communication with Audit Committees,” and the SEC. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditors their independence from management and the Company, and the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountant required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB, including Rule 3526 “Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence,” and has discussed with the independent auditors its independence from the Company and its management.

The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their audit. The Audit Committee meets with the independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, their understanding of the Company’s internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board (and the Board has approved) that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Annual Report for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. The Audit Committee and the Board have also recommended the selection of the Company’s independent auditors, Haskell & White LLP.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION OF NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

In December 2024 , our Compensation Committee conducted its annual review of our compensation philosophy and made recommendations to the Board, which set the total compensation plan for our Named Executive Officers. This review included certain market data, other factors, and operational performance of the Company. The focus of the Compensation Committee, the Board, and management is aligning management total compensation with shareholder return. As such, the Company pays below market salaries and cash bonuses (when paid) and focuses on equity awards for Named Executive Officers.

-12-

Cash Compensation

We use salary to compensate our Named Executive Officers for services rendered during the year and to recognize each of their experience, skills, knowledge, and responsibilities required of each Named Executive Officers. Our Compensation Committee considers adjustments to salary to reflect market conditions and Company results.

Equity Compensation

We view equity awards as the critical element of total compensation of our Named Executive Officers. Although we do not specifically tie any portion of a Named Executive Officer’s equity compensation to Company performance, the Company utilizes incentive stock options and restricted stock as equity awards, the value of which bears a direct correlation to total shareholder return. Stock options issued to Named Executive Officers, often vest over a four-year period. Stock options issued to Named Executive Officers are always issued with an exercise price equal to the then current market price of the Company’s Common Stock. As such, the value in these issued stock options is tied to long-term increases in stockholder value. Further, since issued stock options generally vest over four (4) years, these equity awards serve as a means of retaining our Named Executive Officers, as well as other employees of the Company.

The following table sets forth the total compensation earned by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Executive Vice Chairperson and Chief Financial Officer and Secretary (the “Named Executive Officers”) for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2025 and 2024.

ITEM 402(v) PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

The disclosure included in this section is prescribed by SEC rules and does not necessarily align with how the Company or the Compensation Committee view the link between the Company’s performance and named executive officer pay. This disclosure is intended to comply with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K applicable to “smaller reporting companies.” The tabular disclosure of pay versus performance, as required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, pertains to the relationship between executive compensation actually paid and certain financial performance metrics of the Company. The following table sets forth information concerning compensation actually paid (the “CAP”) to our principal executive officer (the “PEO”) and our non-PEO named executive officers (the “NEOs”) versus our total shareholder return (the “TSR”) and net income (loss) performance results for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023. The amounts set forth below under the headings “Compensation Actually Paid to PEO” and “Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs” have been calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. Use of the measurement CAP is required by the SEC’s rules and as a result of the calculation methodology required by the SEC, such amounts differ from compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table (the “SCT”) and the compensation decisions described in the section entitled “Executive Compensation Information”.

(1) | The dollar amounts reported in column (b) are the amounts of total compensation reported for our chief executive officer, Mr. Zackary Irani, (our PEO) for each corresponding year in the “Total” column of the SCT. Refer to “Executive Compensation – Summary Compensation Table”

(3) | The dollar amounts reported in columns (c) and (e) represent the CAP to Mr. Zackary Irani, and the average CAP to our non-PEO NEOs, respectively, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to our NEOs during the applicable year. In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, to calculate CAP, compensation related to equity awards were remeasured based on the following: For stock options, a Black-Scholes (“BSM”) option-pricing model was used as of the applicable year-end date, or, in the case of vested options, the vesting date. The BSM model requires us to make assumptions and judgments regarding the variables used in the calculation, including the expected remaining term, expected volatility, and the expected risk-free rate. For restricted stock awards, the closing market price of the Company’s common stock was used as of the applicable year-end date, or in the case of vested restricted stock awards, the vesting date. The valuation assumptions used to calculate the CAP shown in the table were materially consistent with those used to calculate our share-based compensation expense, as disclosed in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(4) | TSR is determined based on the value of an initial fixed investment of $100 on December 31, 2021. Cumulative TSR is calculated by dividing the sum of the cumulative amount of dividends for the measurement period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and the difference between the Company’s share price at the end of the measurement period and the Company’s share price at the beginning of the measurement period.
(5) | The dollar amounts reported in column (g) represent the amount of net loss reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements for the applicable year.

Required Disclosure of the Relationship between Compensation Actually Paid and Financial Performance Measures

In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following description of the relationship between (1) information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table above and (2) the executive CAP to our PEO and, on average, to our other Non-PEO NEOs over the Company’s three most recently completed fiscal years.

Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income (Loss)

Due to the nature of our Company’s consolidated financials and primary focus on research and development of diagnostic-guided therapy products to treat gastrointestinal diseases, our Company has not historically utilized net income (loss) as a performance measure for our executive compensation program.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Board reviews, approves, and/or ratifies all transactions involving related persons. The purpose of the review is to determine that such transactions are not conducted on terms that are materially less favorable to the Company than what would be usual and customary in transactions between unrelated persons and, in the case of transactions involving directors, to determine whether such transactions affect the independence of a director in accordance with the relevant rules and standards issued by the SEC.

Other than as described under the headings “Executive Compensation” and “Independent Director Compensation” above, since June 1, 2024, there has not been, and there is not currently proposed, any transaction, arrangement or relationship or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which:

| ● | we or our subsidiaries were or will be a participant;
| ● | the amount involved exceeded or exceeds $120,000; and
| ● | any of our directors, executive officers, beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, any member of the immediate family of any such director or executive officer, or any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the household of any such director or executive officer had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no legal proceedings related to any of our directors, director nominees, or executive officers which are required to be disclosed pursuant to applicable SEC rules.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company is providing stockholders with an advisory, non-binding vote on the Company’s compensation paid to its Named Executive Officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement.

Accordingly, in accordance with the rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the following resolution, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” vote, is being submitted for a stockholder vote at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Named Executive Officers of Biomerica, Inc., as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the compensation tables and narrative discussion is hereby APPROVED.”

Stockholders are encouraged to read the accompanying compensation tables and the related narrative disclosure for more information about the Company’s executive compensation program.

Vote Required and Board Recommendation

Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding on our Compensation Committee or our Board. However, the Board intends to consider the outcome of the vote when making future executive compensation decisions and, in particular, to consider any significant negative voting results to the extent they can determine the cause or causes for such votes. The Board has determined that the Company will hold future advisory votes on executive compensation every year.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, and entitled to vote on the subject matter is required to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the Named Executive Officers’ compensation.

Our Board Recommends that the Stockholders Vote “FOR” the Approval, on a Non-Binding Advisory Basis, of the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers.

PROPOSAL NO. 3

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Under applicable law and the procedures adopted by the Company’s Board, the Audit Committee selects the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for each fiscal year. The Audit Committee has selected Haskell & White LLP (“H&W”) to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2026. H&W is a registered independent public accounting firm and has served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm since the fiscal year ended May 31, 2022.

Although stockholder ratification of the Audit Committee’s selection of the independent registered public accounting firm is not required by law or the procedures adopted by the Board, the Audit Committee’s selection of H&W as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2026 is being submitted for ratification by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting because the Company’s Board has determined that such ratification is a matter of good corporate governance practice. If this proposal is not approved at the Annual Meeting, the Audit Committee may reconsider its selection of H&W. Even if the selection of H&W is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may select a different registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Representatives of H&W are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire, and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

The approximate aggregate fees billed for professional services by our auditors in the fiscal years ended May 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

(1) Audit Fees consist of the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements, the reviews of the consolidated financial statements included in our Forms 10-Q, and for any other services that are normally provided by our auditors in connection with our statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

(2) Tax Fees consist of the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.

(3) All Other Fees consist of the aggregate fees billed for products and services provided by our auditors and not otherwise included in Audit Fees, Audit Related Fees, or Tax Fees. These include services such as providing consent for the Form S-3 filing.

The Audit Committee has considered that the provision of the above services has not impaired the principal accountant’s ability to maintain independence.

It is the policy of the Audit Committee that all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm and related fees paid to our independent registered public accounting firm must be approved in advance by the Audit Committee on a case-by-case basis. All of the above-described services provided by our auditors were approved in advance by the Audit Committee under Item 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

Vote Required and Board Recommendation

The vote on this proposal is advisory in nature, so it will not be binding on the Board. However, the Board will consider the outcome of the vote along with other factors, when making its decision about the selection of H&W as the Company’s independent public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2026.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, and entitled to vote on the subject matter is required to ratify, on an advisory basis, the selection of Haskell & White LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2026.

Our Board Recommends that the Stockholders Vote “FOR” the Proposal to Ratify Haskell & White, LLP as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2026.

PROPOSAL NO. 4

TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO OUR 2024 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE THEREUNDER BY 200,000 SHARES

Our Board believes that the incentive awards under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan is a critical tool in enabling eligible employees, officers, non-employee directors and other service providers to develop a sense of proprietorship and personal involvement in our development and financial success, and to encourage them to devote their best efforts to our business, thereby advancing our interests and the interests of our stockholders.

On October 8, 2025, the Board, on the recommendation of our Compensation Committee, approved an amendment to the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2024 Incentive Plan Amendment”), subject to the approval of our stockholders, which we are seeking at the Annual Meeting. A copy of the 2024 Incentive Plan Amendment is attached as Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement.

The 2024 Incentive Plan Amendment increases the total number of shares of our Common Stock available for issuance under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan by 200,000 shares to a total of 400,000 shares. Of the initial 200,000 shares of our Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan, as of the Record Date, 121,127 shares of our common stock have been issued under the 2024 Incentive Plan or are subject to outstanding awards under the 2024 Incentive Plan leaving 78,873 shares available for new awards. The Board believes the 2024 Incentive Plan Amendment is necessary for the Company and its affiliates to continue to attract and retain employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors who serve and will in the future serve the Company and its affiliates by offering them the opportunity to acquire or increase their proprietary interest in the Company and to promote the identification of their interests with those of our stockholders.

If our stockholders approve the 2024 Incentive Plan Amendment, the Compensation Committee will have broad discretion over the grant of the additional shares of our Common Stock to any employee or executive officer of the Company, including but not limited to our named executive officers in such amounts as the Compensation Committee believes to be appropriate and in the best interest of the Company, which may require Board approval but without further stockholder approval. If our stockholders do not approve the 2024 Incentive Plan Amendment, the Company will continue to operate the 2024 Incentive Plan under its current provisions, but will be limited in its ability to make future grants and incentives under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan to individuals we believe are and in the future will be critical to the Company’s success.

Except for the increase in the total number of shares of our Common Stock available for issuance under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan by 200,000 shares to a total of 400,000 shares pursuant to the 2024 Incentive Plan Amendment, the terms of the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan will remain the same.

Description of the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan

The following summary description of the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 4.11 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the SEC on December 20, 2024 and is incorporated herein by reference.

PURPOSE. The 2024 Stock Incentive Plan is intended to provide incentive to employees, officers, directors and others expected to provide significant services to the Company, to encourage proprietary interest in the Company, to encourage such employees to remain in the employ of the Company, to attract new employees with outstanding qualifications, and to afford additional incentive to others to increase their efforts in providing significant services to the Company.

ADMINISTRATION. The 2024 Stock Incentive Plan is administered by the Company’s Compensation Committee Board .

TYPES OF AWARDS. The Company’s 2024 Stock Incentive Plan provides for the grant of (i) incentive stock options (“ISOs”) within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and (ii) stock options that are not intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Code (“NQSOs”; collectively with ISOs, “Options”). The 2024 Stock Incentive Plan also authorizes the award of shares of restricted Common Stock (“Restricted Stock”).

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS. Options granted under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan will vest and become exercisable as determined by the Compensation Committee or the Board. Awards will be subject to the terms and restrictions of the awards made by the Compensation Committee or the Board. Option and Restricted Stock award recipients shall enter into a written stock option or Restricted Stock agreement with the Company. The Compensation Committee or the Board has discretionary authority to select participants from among eligible persons and to determine, at the time an Option or Restricted Stock award is granted, when and in what increments shares covered by the Option or Restricted Stock award will vest and may be purchased. In the case of an Option, the Compensation Committee or the Board also has the discretionary authority to determine, at the time such Option is granted, whether the Option is intended to be an ISO or a NQSO, provided, however, that certain restrictions applicable to ISOs are mandatory, including a requirement that ISOs not be issued for less than 100% of the then fair market value of the Common Stock (110% in the case of a grantee who holds more than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock) and a maximum exercise period of ten (10) years or five (5) years in the case of a grantee who holds more than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock. Fair market value is determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee in good faith, for which the Board or Compensation Committee may refer to the price at which the shares traded at the close of business on the date of valuation as quoted on finance.yahoo.com. Such determination will be conclusive and binding on all persons.

ELIGIBLE PERSONS. All officers, directors, and employees of the Company as well as certain consultants, advisors and other persons expected to provide bona fide services to the Company are eligible to participate in the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan. ISOs and Restricted Stock may be granted to the officers and employees of the Company. NQSOs and Restricted Stock awards may be granted to the directors, officers, employees, agents, and consultants of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. As of October 8, 2025, there were approximately forty employees and three non-employee directors eligible to participate in the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan.

Under current law, ISOs may not be granted to any director or consultant of the Company who is not an employee.

-22-

SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. The aggregate number of shares of our Common Stock currently available for issuance under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan is 200,000 shares. Of that number, 53,627 shares of our Common Stock have been issued under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan or are subject to outstanding awards under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan as of the October 8, 2025. If the 2024 Incentive Plan Amendment is approved by our stockholders, the number of shares of our common stock reserved for issuance under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan will increase by 200,000 shares – from 200,000 shares to 400,000 shares.

TERM OF THE PLAN. Unless previously terminated by the Board, the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan will terminate on December 7, 2033, and no Options or Restricted Stock may be granted under the Plan thereafter, but existing options and Restricted Stock will remain in effect until the Options or Restricted Stock are exercised or vested or terminated by their terms.

TERM OF OPTIONS. Each stock option must terminate no more than ten (10) years from the date it is granted or five (5) years in the case of ISOs granted to an employee who is deemed to own in excess of ten percent (10%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding equity stock. Stock Options may be granted on terms providing for exercise either in whole or in part at any time or times during their restrictive terms, or only in specified percentages at the stated time periods or intervals during the term of the stock option.

OPTION EXERCISE. The exercise price of any Stock Option granted under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan is payable in full in cash. The Company may provide for other payment mechanisms, including making loans available to option holders to exercise stock options evidenced by a promissory note executed by the option holder, which notes may, but are not required to be secured by a pledge of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the option.

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. The Board may, without affecting any outstanding stock options, from time-to-time revise or amend the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan and may suspend or discontinue it at any time. However, no such revision or amendment may, without stockholder approval, increase the number of shares of Restricted Stock or Stock Options that may be issued under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan.

CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES. Following is a brief summary of the principal federal income tax consequences of awards under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan. This summary is not an exhaustive description and does not describe all applicable federal, state, or local tax laws.

INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. A Plan participant is not subject to federal income tax at the time of either the grant or the exercise of an ISO. In the year in which an ISO is exercised, however, the amount by which the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock received upon the exercise of an ISO exceeds the exercise price will constitute an adjustment to the option holder’s income in computing alternative minimum taxable income. Such adjustment could result in the imposition of, or increase the amount of, the option holder’s “alternative minimum tax” under the Code.

If an option holder does not dispose of such shares of Common Stock within two (2) years after the ISO was granted or one (1) year after the ISO was exercised, whichever is later (any such disposition, a “disqualifying event”), then any gain or loss recognized upon such disposition generally will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss. In such event, the Company will not receive a tax deduction on either the exercise of the ISO or on the sale of the underlying Common Stock.

If an option holder makes a “disqualifying disposition,” the option holder will realize ordinary income in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date the ISO is exercised minus the exercise price, or (ii) the sales price received by the option holder on the disposition of such Common Stock minus the exercise price. In such event, the Company will be entitled to a deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the option holder. If a sale is a disqualifying disposition, the option holder also may realize short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, if such shares constitute capital assets in an option holder’s hands. The gain or loss will be measured by the difference between the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise of the ISO and the sales price of the shares.

-23-

NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS. No income is realized by an option holder upon the grant of an NQSO with an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. Upon the exercise of an NQSO, however, the amount by which the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise exceeds the exercise price, will be taxed as ordinary income to an option holder and the Company will be entitled to a deduction in an equal amount. Upon subsequent sales of Common Stock received upon exercise of NQSO’s, an option holder may realize short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, depending upon the holding period of the shares, if such shares constitute capital assets in the option holder’s hands.

RESTRICTED STOCK. Generally, a participant who has been awarded Restricted Stock will not realize taxable income at the time of the award, and the Company will not be entitled to a deduction at that time; provided, however, that the participant may elect to treat the value of the shares as income at the time of receipt (without regard to restrictions) by filing with the IRS (with a copy to the Company) an election under Section 83(b) of the Code no later than thirty (30) days after the issuance date. In the absence of an election under Section 83(b), when the restrictions on the Restricted Stock lapse, the participant will have ordinary income and the Company will have a corresponding deduction. The measure of such income and deduction will be the fair market value of the shares at the time the restrictions lapse.

NEW PLAN BENEFITS. If our stockholders approve this proposal, the additional shares of our Common Stock that would become reserved for issuance under the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan would be immediately available to grant equity awards to eligible plan participants. The number of awards (if any) that may be received by individual employees or groups of employees under our Plan is at the discretion of our Board and therefore cannot be determined in advance.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table sets forth information as of May 31, 2025 relating to all our equity compensation plans:

Equity compensation plans approved by security holders |  |  | 413,866 |  |  | $ | 19.29 |  |  |  | 153,038 |
Equity compensation plans not approved by security holders |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |

Vote Required and Board Recommendation

The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, and entitled to vote on the subject matter is required for the approval of the amendment to the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan.

Our Board Recommends that the Stockholders Vote “FOR” the Proposal to Approve the amendment to the 2024 Stock Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance thereunder by 200,000 shares.

PROPOSAL NO. 5

TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO OUR AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFIATE OF INCORPORATION TO AUTHORIZE THE BOARD, AT THEIR DISCRETION, TO EFFECT AN INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK FROM 25,000,000 TO 300,000,000

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Articles”) authorizes us to issue a total of 8,125,000 shares, consisting of two classes as follows: (a) 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock, and (b) 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”), each with a par value of $0.08 per share. Our Board has approved and is seeking stockholder approval of discretionary authority to file, an amendment to the Articles (the “Authorized Shares Amendment”) to implement an increase in the number of shares of authorized Common Stock from 25,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares (the “Authorized Share Increase”). The form of the proposed amendment to the Articles to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock is attached as Exhibit B to this Proxy Statement.

The Board has unanimously determined that the Authorized Shares Amendment is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders. In accordance with the DGCL, we are hereby seeking approval of the Authorized Shares Amendment by our stockholders and recommend that our stockholders approve the Authorized Share Increase Proposal.

Purpose of the Authorized Share Increase

The Board believes that the proposed increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock will benefit the Company by improving our flexibility to promptly and appropriately use its Common Stock for business and financial purposes in the future. These business opportunities may include, but are not limited to, potential strategic transactions (such as mergers, acquisitions, and other business combinations), future stock dividends, equity or equity-linked offerings and other capital-raising or financing transactions, grants and awards under stock plans, and other types of general corporate purpose transactions. Without an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the Company may be constrained in its ability to raise capital in a timely fashion or at all and may lose important business opportunities, which could adversely affect our financial performance and growth. We believe that it is important to have the flexibility to issue shares of Common Stock beyond the limited amount remaining.

Potential Effects of Approving the Authorized Shares Amendment

The proposed increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock will not have any immediate effect on the rights of our existing stockholders. However, the Board will have the authority to issue the additional shares of Common Stock without requiring future stockholder approval of such issuances, except as may be required by applicable law or rules of any stock exchange on which our securities may be listed. The issuance of additional shares of Common Stock may decrease the relative percentage of equity ownership of our existing stockholders, thereby diluting the voting power of their Common Stock. The perception that there might be additional dilution to our existing stockholders may put pressure on our stock price.

While the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock may be deemed to have potential anti-takeover effects, including by delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company through subsequent issuances of these shares and the other reasons set forth above, which, among other things, could include issuances in one or more transactions that would make a change in control of the Company more difficult, and therefore, less likely, this proposal to increase the authorized shares of Common Stock is not prompted by any specific effort of which we are aware to accumulate shares of our Common Stock or obtain control of the Company. A takeover may be beneficial to independent stockholders because, among other reasons, a potential suitor may offer such stockholders a premium for their shares of Common Stock as compared to the then-existing market price. Although the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect, this proposal to adopt the Authorized Shares Amendment is not in response to any effort to which the Company is aware to accumulate Common Stock or obtain control of the Company.

-25-

The additional authorized shares of Common Stock would have the same rights and privileges as the shares of Common Stock currently outstanding. Stockholders do not have preemptive rights with respect to our Common Stock. Therefore, should the Board determine to issue additional shares of Common Stock, existing stockholders would not have any preferential rights to purchase such shares in order to maintain their proportionate ownership thereof. We can provide no assurance that we will be successful in amending the Articles to increase the number of shares of Common Stock that are available for issuance, or that the Authorized Shares Increase will not have an adverse effect on our stock price.

Potential Effects of Not Approving the Authorized Share Increase Proposal

If the Company’s stockholders do not approve the Authorized Share Increase, then the Company will not be able to increase the total number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 25,000,000 to 300,000,000 which, therefore, could prevent the Company from continuing the pursuit of effective strategies to access capital in the public and private markets.

Vote Required and Board Recommendation

Pursuant to the DGCL, this proposal must be approved by the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast on the matter. Abstentions with respect to this proposal will be counted for purposes of establishing a quorum and, if a quorum is present, will have no effect on this proposal.

Our Board Recommends that Our Stockholders Vote “FOR” Approval Granting the Board Discretionary Authority to Amend the Amended And Restated Certificate Of Incorporation To Increase The Number Of Authorized Shares Of Common Stock from 25,000,000 to 300,000,000.

PROPOSAL NO. 6

APPROVAL OF AN ADJOURNMENT OF THE ANNUAL MEETING

To consider and vote on a proposal to approve any adjournment of the Annual Meeting from time to time, if necessary or appropriate, including to establish a quorum, which proposal we refer to as the “Adjournment Proposal.”

Vote Required and Board Recommendation

Approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, and entitled to vote on the subject matter; provided, that in the absence of a quorum, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, and entitled to vote is required for the Adjournment Proposal. If you properly authorize your proxy by mail, by telephone or through the Internet, but do not indicate instructions to vote your shares “FOR,” “AGAINST”, or “ABSTAIN” on the Adjournment Proposal, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of our Board, which is “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal. Abstentions will have no effect with respect to the vote on the Adjournment Proposal (assuming the presence of a quorum), or, in the absence of a quorum, will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Adjournment Proposal.

Our Board Recommends that Our Stockholders Vote “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal.

-27-

OTHER BUSINESS

Management is not aware of any matters to come before the Annual Meeting other than those stated in this Proxy Statement. However, matters of which management is not currently aware may arise before the occurrence of the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof. The proxy confers discretionary authority with respect to acting on such matters, and the persons named in the proxy intend to vote, act, and consent in accordance with their best judgment with respect thereto.

DIRECTOR ATTENDANCE AT ANNUAL MEETINGS

The annual meeting of stockholders held on December 7, 2024 was attended by all five (5) of the incumbent directors for that year. It is expected that a majority of the directors will be in attendance at the 2025 Annual Meeting.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of securities to file initial reports of ownership of our stock and reports of changes in such ownership with the SEC. To our knowledge, all required filings pursuant to Section 16(a) were timely made during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025.

INSIDER TRADING POLICY

We also maintain a Policy on Insider Trading governing the purchase or sale of our securities by our officers, directors and employees and consultants, that we believe is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and any listing standards applicable to us. We consider it improper and inappropriate for any employee, officer or director to engage in short-term or speculative transactions in our securities. The Policy on Insider Trading specifically prohibits officers, directors and other employees and consultants from engaging in short sales, margin accounts, pledging or hedging transactions of our securities. A copy of the Policy on Insider Trading Policy was filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our 2025 Annual Report.

COMPENSATION RECOVERY POLICY

We believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to create and maintain a culture that emphasizes integrity and accountability and reinforces our pay-for-performance compensation philosophy. We have adopted a compensation recovery policy, which has been filed as an exhibit to our 2025 Annual Report. The compensation recovery policy provides for the recoupment of certain executive compensation in the event of an accounting restatement resulting from material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws and describes certain remedies available to the Board to address executive officers who have engaged in fraudulent or other intentional misconduct. Our compensation recovery policy applies to any compensation paid to executive officers that is granted, earned, or vested based wholly or in part upon attainment of a financial reporting measure.

EMPLOYEE, DIRECTOR, AND OFFICER HEDGING

We have not adopted any policy regarding the ability of our employees (including officers) or directors, or any of their designees, to purchase financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds), or otherwise engage in transactions, that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in the market value of our equity securities.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for the proxy materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single set of the proxy materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

In connection with the Annual Meeting, a number of brokers with account holders who are Company stockholders will be “householding” the proxy materials. A single set of the proxy materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate set of the proxy materials, please notify your broker or the Company. Direct your written request to Biomerica, Inc., 17571 Von Karman Avenue, Irvine, California 92614, Attention: Corporate Secretary. The Company undertakes to promptly deliver a separate set of the proxy materials promptly upon receiving your written request. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers.

SEC rules permit us to print an individual’s multiple accounts on a single set of Annual Meeting materials. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have summarized on one set of Annual Meeting materials all of the accounts registered with the same tax identification number or duplicate name and address, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted stockholder prior to the mailing date. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the Annual Meeting materials, as requested, to any stockholder to which a single copy of those documents was delivered. If you prefer to receive separate copies of the Annual Meeting materials, contact Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. at 1-866-540-7095 or in writing at Broadridge, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717. A number of brokerage firms have instituted householding. They will have their own procedures for stockholders who wish to receive individual copies of the proxy materials.

DATE FOR SUBMISSION OF STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR NEXT ANNUAL MEETING

Any eligible stockholder who desires to have a proposal considered for inclusion in our fiscal year 2026 proxy solicitation materials, including director nominations, must cause their proposals to be received in writing by our Secretary at 17571 Von Karman Avenue, Irvine, California 92614 no later than June 18, 2026. The Board will review new proposals from eligible stockholders if they are received in writing by June 18, 2026. Proposals must be submitted in accordance with our bylaws and must comply with Securities and Exchange Commission regulations promulgated under Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Any notice to the Secretary must include as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting: (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting and the reason for conducting the business at the Annual Meeting, (b) the stockholder’s name and address, as they appear on our records, (c) the class and number of shares which the stockholder beneficially owns, (d) any material interest of the stockholder in the business requested to be brought before the meeting, and (e) any other information that is required to be provided by the stockholder pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in his or her capacity as a proponent of the stockholder proposal.

A stockholder’s notice to the Secretary regarding a nomination for the election of directors must set forth: (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a director, (i) the person’s name, age, business address and residence address, (ii) the person’s principal occupation or employment, (iii) the class and number of shares of capital stock beneficially owned by the person, and (iv) any other information relating to the person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations for proxies for election of directors pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice (i) the name and address of the stockholder, as they appear on our records, and (ii) the class and number of shares of stock that are beneficially owned by the stockholder on the date of the stockholder notice. If the Board so requests, any person nominated for election to the Board shall furnish to our Secretary the information required to be set forth in the notice of nomination pertaining to the nominee.

Nothing in this section shall be deemed to require us to include in our proxy solicitation materials relating to any annual meeting any stockholder proposal or nomination that does not meet all of the requirements for inclusion established by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
