LABARRE DENNIS W 4

What Happened
Dennis W. LaBarre, a non-employee director of Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Co. (HBB), received an award of 1,581 shares of Class A common stock on 2026-04-01. The award is denoted as transaction code "A" (grant/award); no per-share price or total dollar value is reported (N/A). This appears to be routine director compensation rather than an open-market purchase or sale.

• Transaction type/code: A (award/grant). Price reported: N/A; value not specified in the filing excerpt.
• Shares awarded: 1,581 Class A common shares.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
• Footnotes: F1 — Shares awarded as "Required Shares" under the Company's Non-Employee Directors' Equity Compensation Plan. F2 — N/A.

Context
"Required Shares" awards are typically part of regular non-employee director compensation (e.g., directors required to take fees in stock). Such awards are routine and do not necessarily indicate the director is buying or selling based on company outlook. Because no dollar value or post-transaction ownership is shown here, investors should treat this as standard compensation disclosure rather than a bullish or bearish insider trade.
