This 8-K confirms the final terms and execution of LSI Industries' public offering, which was initially announced on February 25, 2026, and priced on February 27, 2026. The company sold 4,600,000 shares at $19.75 per share and, significantly, the underwriters fully exercised their 30-day option to purchase an additional 690,000 shares on February 27, 2026.

The successful completion of this substantial capital raise, especially with the full over-allotment exercise, provides critical funding for the company's strategic growth initiatives and strengthens its financial position following the major acquisition announcement.
