Fellow Stockholders,

You are cordially invited to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Traeger, Inc. at

8:30 a.m. Mountain Time, on Tuesday, June 9, 2026. The Annual Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting, which will

be conducted via live webcast.

The Notice of Meeting and Proxy Statement on the following pages describe the matters to be presented at the Annual

Meeting. Please see the section entitled “Who can attend the Annual Meeting?” on page 58 of the proxy statement for

more information about how to attend the meeting online.

Whether or not you attend the Annual Meeting online, it is important that your shares be represented and voted at the

Annual Meeting. Therefore, I urge you to promptly vote and submit your proxy by phone, via the Internet, or, if you

received paper copies of these materials, by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed

envelope, which requires no postage if mailed in the United States. If you have previously received our Notice of Internet

Availability of Proxy Materials, then instructions regarding how you can vote are contained in that notice. If you have

received a proxy card, then instructions regarding how you can vote are contained on the proxy card. If you decide to

attend the Annual Meeting, you will be able to vote online, even if you have previously submitted your proxy.

At the heart of our brand is a passionate and engaged community called the Traegerhood, which includes everyone from

casual grillers to competition pitmasters and professional chefs. We believe our potential market opportunity is significant

and that our ability to grow within the outdoor grill market is unrivaled. We see opportunities to meaningfully increase

awareness of the Traeger brand and to expand our integrated, connected cooking platform with new technologies and

experiences. Together with the Traegerhood, we are disrupting home cooking.

In 2025, we executed against our strategic priorities in a challenging operating environment. We closed the year with

revenue above the high end of our guidance range and Adjusted EBITDA in the upper half of our guidance range. We

took deliberate actions to navigate tariff pressure, protect profitability, and simplify the business (including through our

Project Gravity initiative) in ways that we believe strengthened our foundation for the long term. As we move into 2026, we

are executing with discipline to focus the business on our highest-return opportunities, while continuing to invest behind

product innovation and brand. We believe these actions are positioning Traeger for stronger long-term performance.

Our Board of Directors continues to play a key role in overseeing this transformation of our business. This year, we

engaged in a comprehensive evaluation process to identify areas of improvement, engage in ongoing director education,

and ensure that our Board of Directors is functioning effectively in overseeing management as it continues to execute

against our strategic pillars.

We believe our employees are the foundation of our success and work to provide them with a world-class experience

through competitive compensation; comprehensive benefits and retirement plans; a flexible workplace policy; health and

safety training programs; and job skills, compliance, and leadership trainings. We are proud of the strides we continue to

make towards our sustainability and corporate responsibility goals to create an even more sustainable way of bringing

people together to create a more flavorful world.

Our confidence in the long-term potential of our brand remains as high as ever. On behalf of our Board of Directors

and the Traegerhood, thank you for your continued trust and support in Traeger, and we look forward to seeing you at

the meeting.

Sincerely,

Jeremy Andrus

CEO and Chairman of the Board
