WM Argyle Investor Presentation Details the Failures of Broadwind’s Board of Directors and Urges Shareholders to Elect the Fund’s Three Director Nominees

MILWAUKEE, May 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WM Argyle Fund, LLC (the “Fund”), one of the largest investors in Broadwind, Inc. (NASDAQ: BWEN) (“Broadwind” or the “Company”), today released a presentation to Broadwind investors that described the dismal track record of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and urged shareholders to elect the Fund’s nominees. The presentation noted that:

• Shareholders have endured a “lost decade” of financial losses, share dilution and stock-price underperformance;
  

• Three entrenched directors bear the greatest share of responsibility for the Board’s strategic errors and governance failings and should be replaced with the Fund’s three nominees at the annual meeting; and
  

• WM Argyle’s nominees are exceptionally qualified to serve shareholder interests and will bring fresh thinking and greater accountability to the Board.
  

In its presentation, the Fund urged stockholders to vote FOR Ryan Bogenschneider, Christine M. Candela and James M. Robinson IV and to WITHHOLD on incumbent directors David P. Reiland, Thomas A. Wagner and Cary B. Wood.

Additional information regarding the WM Argyle Fund’s director nominees and its plan to improve Broadwind can be found at www.BWEN2023.com.
