STANDEX INTERNATIONAL CORPDE

Management has the primary responsibility for creating, maintaining and administering programs to ensure employees’ compliance with the Code of Conduct and the Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Management, (the “Codes”), both of which are available by going toir.standex.com, clicking on “Governance,” and then clicking on “Policies.” The N&CG Committee routinely receives updates from the Corporate Governance Officer on the existing programs and any proposed programs. On an annual basis, employees are presented with a copy of the Code of Conduct and must affirm their compliance with it.

The Company also utilizes an online interactive compliance training program to educate employees on the Codes as well as other regulatory and workplace compliance topics. Employees are assigned training modules on a regular basis to promote ongoing awareness of ethics issues. The Company divisions routinely customize the modules to address ethics issues specific to their organizations.

The N&CG Committee is also responsible for evaluating and approving requests for waivers of the Codes. Any request must be submitted, in writing, to the Chair of the N&CG Committee, who then reports the submission to the whole N&CG Committee. The N&CG Committee then provides their recommendation on the request to the Board. Any waivers granted to executive officers are disclosed to shareholders as soon as practicable via the Company’s website. No waivers have been granted during FY 2024 or during any prior period.

Additionally, a third-party global, multi-language hotline is available 24/7 at every Company location worldwide, for anonymous reporting of financial, accounting, auditing or other employee concerns. This communication tool is a beneficial outlet for employees to express concerns.
