Flushing Financial Reports Annual Shareholder Meeting Results

UNIONDALE, N.Y., May 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Flushing Financial Corporation (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: FFIC), the parent holding company for Flushing Bank (the “Bank”), announced that on May 16, 2023, it held its annual shareholder meeting, in a virtual-only format. At the meeting, by overwhelming majorities all of the Company’s nominees were elected and the shareholders ratified the selection of BDO USA, LLP as Flushing Financial’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2023. In addition, the shareholders supported, also overwhelmingly, the board-sponsored proposals to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers and the one-year frequency of future advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s executive officers.

“We thank all shareholders for their engagement, participation, and ongoing support. Last year was a year filled with market volatility and aggressive rate movements by the Federal Reserve. Despite the challenging environment, the Company recorded its second highest annual core earnings, which followed record earnings in 2021,” stated John R. Buran, President and Chief Executive Officer.

The voting results were verified by the independent inspectors of election and are available on the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 18, 2023.
