Pixelworks Corporate Events
On January 14, 2026, Pixelworks implemented a series of board changes as part of its ongoing transformation into a global technology licensing company following the sale of its Shanghai-based subsidiary. Entertainment technology veteran Douglas J. Darrow, a former senior executive at Dolby Laboratories and Laser Light Engines and a long-time leader in digital cinema technologies, was appointed to the board to fill the vacancy created by the voluntary resignation of director Dr. John Liu, which the company said was not due to any disagreement over operations or policies. Darrow, who will sit on the compensation and strategy committees and receive standard non-employee director compensation including restricted stock units, is expected to stand for reelection at the 2026 annual meeting, underscoring Pixelworks’ push to align board expertise with its cinema and entertainment-focused licensing strategy centered on its TrueCut Motion platform. Concurrently, the company further reshaped its governance structure by naming CEO Todd DeBonis as chairman of the board, appointing Dean Butler as lead independent director, and having former chairman Daniel Heneghan remain on the board and continue serving on key committees, leaving the board at five members and signaling a tighter, strategically focused governance framework to support its new business direction.

On January 14, 2026, Pixelworks’ board compensation committee approved the payment of transaction-related bonuses to executives Todd DeBonis and Haley Aman under previously established bonus agreements connected to the sale of its subsidiary, Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., which officially closed on January 6, 2026. The committee waived a timing condition that had required the qualifying transaction to close by December 31, 2025, deeming the few‑day delay immaterial, and also decided that the portion of the bonuses tied to $1.2 million of the sale proceeds currently held in escrow for Chinese tax matters will be paid only after those escrowed funds are released to the company, aligning executive payouts more closely with final cash realization from the transaction.

On January 6, 2026, Pixelworks completed the previously announced sale of all its shares in its Shanghai-based subsidiary, Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., to a special purpose entity led by VeriSilicon Microelectronics (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. Under a series of share purchase, support, and termination and release agreements, Pixelworks and other shareholders transferred 100% of PWSH’s outstanding capital stock to the buyer, resulting in net cash proceeds to Pixelworks of about RMB 357 million (approximately $51 million), with an additional RMB 8.7 million (about $1.2 million) placed in escrow pending resolution of tax matters in China. The deal, which also extinguished all prior repurchase rights held by former shareholders of the Shanghai unit, streamlines Pixelworks’ corporate structure and crystallizes the value of its Chinese semiconductor operations, potentially reshaping its capital allocation and strategic focus while clarifying ownership for partners and customers in that market.

On December 31, 2025, Pixelworks, Inc. reconvened its 2025 Special Meeting of Shareholders, originally convened on November 26 and adjourned twice in December, to vote on two remaining proposals. Shareholders holding approximately 61% of the company’s outstanding common stock on the record date voted in favor of the previously announced sale of all shares of Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. owned indirectly by the company, although the board had earlier determined that this transaction does not constitute a sale of substantially all of Pixelworks’ property and assets and therefore does not require shareholder approval to be completed. In a separate advisory vote, shareholders also approved, by a majority of votes cast, the compensation arrangements for named executive officers that are tied to or otherwise relate to the sale, signaling investor support for both the strategic divestiture and the associated executive pay structure.

On December 19–20, 2025, Pixelworks’ board of directors met and then unanimously resolved by written consent to proceed with the pending sale of all shares of Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. to Tiansui Xinyuan Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., concluding that the deal does not constitute a sale of substantially all of the company’s assets and therefore does not require shareholder approval. The board cited the high capital needs and challenging capital structure of the Shanghai business, the more attractive, capital‑efficient economics of the TrueCut licensing business, the opportunity to eliminate growing repurchase obligations to other PWSH shareholders, and the strategic benefit of refocusing on core visual processing technology and a licensing‑based model; Pixelworks will stop seeking proxies on the sale, will use the December 31, 2025 special meeting only to vote on remaining proposals and adjourn, and expects to close the transaction in early January 2026 while asserting that the sale is in the best interests of the company and its shareholders.

On December 19, 2025, Pixelworks reconvened its 2025 Special Meeting of Shareholders, originally convened on November 26 and later reconvened and adjourned on December 8, but again adjourned the meeting without voting on either of two proposals after failing to secure proxies or voting instructions from holders of at least 67% of its outstanding common shares in favor of a planned sale of all the stock of Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. The company said the Special Meeting, which focuses on shareholder approval for divesting the Shanghai subsidiary, will reconvene via remote communication on December 31, 2025, underscoring ongoing challenges in obtaining sufficient shareholder support for a potentially significant shift in its business footprint.

On December 8, 2025, Pixelworks, Inc. reconvened its 2025 Special Meeting of Shareholders, which was adjourned due to insufficient votes for Proposal 1, concerning the sale of shares of its subsidiary, Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (Shanghai). The meeting will reconvene on December 19, 2025, to allow more time for shareholders to vote, as the proposal requires approval from 67% of outstanding shares. The board supports the proposal, believing it is in the best interest of the company and its shareholders, with recommendations from independent proxy advisory groups to vote in favor.
