Astronics Corporation (Nasdaq: ATRO), a leading provider of advanced technologies for global aerospace, defense, and other mission critical industries, today announced it has initiated an at-the-market (“ATM”) equity offering program for the sale from time to time of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) having an aggregate sales price of up to $30.0 million. The timing and volume of any sales of shares of Common Stock under the ATM program will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company. Shares of Common Stock under the ATM program will be offered through Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (“Wells Fargo”) and HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. (“HSBC”), as sales agents. Wells Fargo and HSBC may sell shares of Common Stock by any lawful method deemed to be an “at-the-market offering” defined by Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including without limitation sales made directly on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, on any other existing trading market for the shares of Common Stock, to or through a market maker or in negotiated transactions. Sales may be made at market prices prevailing at the time of the sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices and, as a result, sales prices may vary.

The prospectus supplement filed today adds to, updates or otherwise changes information contained in the existing prospectus contained in a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-272423), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 20, 2023. Prospective investors should read the prospectus, the prospectus supplement and other documents the Company has filed with the SEC (some of which are incorporated by reference into the prospectus and prospectus supplement) for more complete information about the Company and the ATM program, including the risks associated with investing in the Company. Copies of the prospectus supplement and related prospectus may be obtained from Wells Fargo Securities LLC, 500 West 33rd Street, New York, New York 10001, Attention: Equity Syndicate Department (fax no: (212) 214-5918) and from HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., (ny.equity.syndicate@us.hsbc.com). Investors may also obtain copies of the prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus relating to the ATM offering without charge by visiting the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

This press release is for informational purposes only and is not an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any shares of Common Stock of the Company, which is made only by means of a prospectus supplement and related prospectus. There will be no sale of shares of Common Stock in any jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation of an offer to buy or sale would be unlawful.
