Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously disclosed, on June 16, 2026, AstroNova, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Orion Merger Parent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Orion MergerCo X, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which and upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of investment funds managed by Arcline Investment Management LP (“Arcline”).
The completion of the Merger is conditioned upon, among other things, the expiration or termination of the waiting period (and any extensions thereof) applicable to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”). The HSR Act waiting period expired at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on July 31, 2026, and accordingly the condition to the completion of the Merger relating to the expiration or termination of the HSR Act waiting period has been satisfied. The completion of the Merger remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the other conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the approval of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s shareholders at the Special Meeting (as defined below).
