Departure of Director

On February 3, 2026, George H. Ellis, a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Liquidity Services, Inc.

Mr. Ellis has served as a director of the Company since May 2010. His retirement comes as part of the Company’s long-term succession planning process and is not as a result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices.

The Company thanks Mr. Ellis for his many years of service and his past leadership as Chair of the Audit Committee, a position he held from 2010 through February 2024.

Immediately following the departure of Mr. Ellis, the Board has agreed the following changes will take effect: (1) the size of the Board will be reduced from 8 to 7 directors; and (2) the size of each of the Audit Committee and the Governance Committee will be reduced from 4 to 3 independent directors.
