Ancora Comments on Clear Mandate from Forward Air Shareholders That a Well-Run Sale Process is Urgently Needed

Highlights That a Majority of Unaffiliated Shareholders Voted Against the Reelection of Chairman George Mayes, Jr., Director Javier Polit and Director Laurie Tucker

Believes Shareholders Have Sent a Loud and Clear Message About the Board’s Track Record of Value Destruction

Reiterates View That Shareholders Want a Value-Maximizing Sale

Ancora Holdings Group, LLC (together with its affiliates, “Ancora” or “we”), a significant shareholder of Forward Air Corporation (NASDAQ: FWRD) (“Forward Air” or the “Company”), today issued the following statement regarding the announced voting results of the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

“This vote is a clear mandate that shareholders expect Forward Air to expeditiously complete a credible strategic review that leads to a sale at a meaningful premium. Absent the more than 30% of shares that were legally committed to vote for the incumbent Board, Chairman George Mayes, Jr., Javier Polit, and Laurie Tucker lost in a landslide, highlighting the substantial level of concern regarding the legitimacy of the Board’s strategic review. We believe the resignations of these legacy directors will empower the Board to carry out a thorough assessment of value-maximizing opportunities.”
