Item 5.07. Submission of Matters toa Vote of Security Holders.

On June 13, 2024, MIND Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) convened and adjourned a virtual special meeting of preferred stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, a total of 1,137,719 shares, or 67.60% of the shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, issued and outstanding as of April 26, 2024, which is the record date for the Special Meeting, were represented virtually or by proxy, constituting a quorum.

At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders considered two proposals, each of which is set forth below and described in more detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the “Proxy Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 22, 2024, as revised on May 8, 2024.

Proposal No. 1: To approve an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of 9.00% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock, to provide that, at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors deciding to file the Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware at any time prior to July 31, 2024, each share of 9.00% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value per share shall be converted into 3.9 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, upon the effective time of the Amendment (the “Preferred Stock Proposal”).

Proposal No. 2: To approve one or more adjournments of the Special Meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Preferred Stock Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

As there were not sufficient votes to approve the Preferred Stock Proposal at the time of the Special Meeting, the sole item of business presented to the preferred stockholders for consideration at the virtual special meeting was a vote on the Adjournment Proposal. The voting results for the Adjournment Proposal are set forth below.

For		Against		Abstentions
792,112		324,281		17,636

In accordance with the authority granted pursuant to the Adjournment Proposal, the Special Meeting was adjourned with respect to the Preferred Stock Proposal to solicit additional proxies in favor of the Preferred Stock Proposal. As announced at the Special Meeting, the Special Meeting will reconvene on June 27, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. Central Time.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On June 13, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing the adjournment of the virtual special meeting of preferred stockholders. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated by reference into Item 7.01.

MIND Technology Adjourns Virtual Special Meeting of Preferred Stockholders

THE WOODLANDS, TX, June 13, 2024 –MIND Technology, Inc. (“MIND” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: MIND; MINDP) convened its virtual special meeting of holders of its 9% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock (the “preferred stock”) on June 13, 2024. Preferred stockholders approved a proposal to adjourn the special meeting to give the Company’s management additional time to solicit additional proxies to approve an amendment to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock Proposal”). If the Preferred Stock Proposal is approved, the proposed amendment provides that each share of preferred stock may be converted into 3.9 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “common stock”) at the sole discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors at any time prior to July 31, 2024. The virtual special meeting will be reconvened on Thursday, June 27, 2024 at 09:00 a.m.

The record date for determining preferred stockholders eligible to vote at the virtual special meeting remains April 27, 2024.

MIND strongly encourages any eligible preferred stockholder that has not yet voted their shares or provided voting instructions to their broker or other record holder, to do so promptly. No action is required by any preferred stockholder who has previously delivered a proxy and who does not wish to revoke or change that proxy.

Rob Capps, President and CEO of MIND, stated, “We are pleased with the response we have received to date to the Preferred Stock Proposal. However, given the diverse holdings of the preferred stock and the requirement to obtain the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the outstanding shares, we think it appropriate to adjourn the virtual special meeting and provide additional time to solicit proxies.”
