Foodservice Distribution

HF Foods Group Inc. announced that its Board of Directors has approved a limited duration stockholder rights plan and declared a dividend distribution of one right for each outstanding share of the company's common stock. This action was taken in response to indications of undisclosed stock accumulation and coordinated group formation activities aimed at gaining control of HF Foods Group. The Rights Plan is designed to protect the interests of all stockholders by ensuring that no entity or group can acquire control without paying a full and appropriate control premium. The plan will be effective immediately and will generally become exercisable if an entity acquires beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the company's outstanding common stock in a transaction not approved by the Board. The plan has a 364-day term, expiring on June 10, 2027. HF Foods Group has retained Arnold & Porter as its legal advisor and will file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the United States — United States Securities and Exchange Commission for additional details.
