[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

#### What is the purpose of our 2026 Annual Meeting?
Our 2026 Annual Meeting will be held to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Director Election Proposal** — a proposal to elect five directors, each for a term expiring at the next annual meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Auditor Ratification Proposal** — a proposal to ratify the selection of Kreit & Chiu CPA LLP as the Company's independent certified public accountants for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2027; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; To transact any other business that is properly presented at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting.

#### How can I attend the Annual Meeting?
You are entitled to attend the Annual Meeting only if you were a holder of record of our Common Stock as of the Record Date or you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. You should be prepared to present photo identification for admittance. If your shares are held by a brokerage firm, bank, or a trustee, you should provide proof of beneficial ownership as of the Record Date, such as a bank or brokerage account statement or other similar evidence of ownership. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please cast your vote as soon as possible.

#### What are the voting rights of Maison stockholders?
Our stockholders will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the Annual Meeting if they owned shares of Common Stock at the close of business on the Record Date. As of the Record Date, there were 4,276,694 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, comprised of 4,052,694 shares of Class A Common Stock, which Class A Common Stock shares are entitled to an aggregate of 4,052,694 votes at the Annual Meeting, and 224,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, which Class B Common Stock shares are entitled to an aggregate of 2,240,000 votes at the Annual Meeting, for an aggregate total of 4,276,694 votes. Under Delaware law, stockholders will not have appraisal or similar rights in connection with any proposal set forth in this Proxy Statement. If your shares are held in "street name" or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted.

Each stockholder of Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share on each matter properly presented at the Annual Meeting for each share of Class A Common Stock owned by such stockholder on the Record Date. Each stockholder of Class B Common Stock is entitled to ten votes per share on each matter properly presented at the Annual Meeting for each share of Class B Common Stock owned by such stockholder on the record date.

#### What constitutes a quorum?
A quorum of our stockholders is necessary to conduct business and hold a valid meeting. The holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote shall be present in person or represented by proxy in order to constitute a quorum for the Annual Meeting. If you submit a properly executed proxy or voting instruction card or properly cast your vote via the Internet or mail, your shares will be considered part of the quorum, even if you abstain from voting or withhold authority to vote as to a particular proposal.

#### What are "broker non-votes ?"
"Broker non-votes" occur when shares held by a brokerage firm are not voted with respect to a proposal because the firm has not received voting instructions from the stockholder and the firm does not have the authority to vote the shares in its discretion. Under applicable exchange rules, the Director Election Proposal is a non-routine proposal, and as such a broker does not have the discretion to vote on such a proposal if such broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares represented. The Auditor Ratification Proposal is a routine proposal, and as such a broker does have discretion to vote on the Auditor Ratification Proposal.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### Will my shares be voted if I do not provide my proxy?
If your shares are held by a brokerage firm and you do not provide the firm specific voting instructions, such firm will not have the authority to vote your shares for the Director Election Proposal and your shares will not be voted, and will be considered "broker non-votes," with respect to this proposal to be presented at the Annual Meeting. Therefore, we urge you to provide voting instructions so that your shares will be voted. If you hold your shares directly in your own name, your shares will not be voted unless you provide a proxy or fill out a written ballot in person at the Annual Meeting.

#### How do I vote?
Maison stockholders of record on June 22, 2026 may submit their proxies as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Through the Internet, by visiting the website established for that purpose at *http://www.vstocktransfer.com/proxy* by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on July 21, 2026 and following the instructions; or

**If you are a beneficial owner, please refer to your proxy card or the information forwarded by your bank, broker or other holder of record to see which options are available to you.**

To vote in person:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If you are a registered holder, attend our Annual Meeting, bring valid photo identification, and deliver your completed proxy card or ballot in person; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If you hold your shares in "street name," attend our Annual Meeting, bring valid photo identification, and obtain a legal proxy from your bank or broker to vote the shares that are held for your benefit, attach it to your completed proxy card and deliver it in person.

#### Can I change my vote after I have voted?
You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. You may vote again on a later date via the Internet, by signing and mailing a new proxy card with a later date, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person (only your latest proxy submitted prior to the Annual Meeting will be counted). However, your attendance at the Annual Meeting will not automatically revoke your proxy unless you vote again at the Annual Meeting or specifically request in writing that your prior proxy be revoked.

<u><u>Proposal 1 — Director Election Proposal.</u></u>

The vote required to elect our five directors, each for a term expiring at the next annual meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified, is a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting.

#### Board Leadership
The Board has no policy regarding the need to separate or combine the offices of Chairman of the Board ("Chairman") and Chief Executive Officer and instead the Board remains free to make this determination from time to time in a manner that seems most appropriate for the Company. The positions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer are currently held by John Xu. We also have a Lead Independent Director elected annually by the majority of the Board of Directors. Mark Willis currently serves as the Lead Independent Director. The Lead Independent Director calls and presides over periodic meetings of our independent directors, prepares agendas for meetings of the independent directors, facilitates communications between management and the independent directors, ensures that the Board fulfills its oversight responsibilities in Company strategy, risk oversight and succession planning, and performs such additional duties as our Board may otherwise determine and delegate from time to time. Our Board has determined that its current structure, with combined Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles and a Lead Independent Chairman, is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders at this time. Our overall corporate governance policies and practices combined with the strength of our independent directors and our internal controls minimize any potential conflicts that may result from combining the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

#### Board Oversight of Enterprise Risk
The Board is actively involved in the oversight and management of risks that could affect the Company. This oversight and management are conducted primarily through the committees of the Board identified above but the full Board has retained responsibility for general oversight of risks. The Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing the risk management function, specifically with respect to management's assessment of risk exposures (including risks related to liquidity, credit, operations and regulatory compliance, among others), and the processes in place to monitor and control such exposures. The other committees of the Board consider the risks within their areas of responsibility.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

#### Director Independence
A majority of our Board is independent under the rules of Nasdaq. Our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of our directors and considered whether any director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities. As a result of this review, our Board has determined that Bin Wang, Mark Willis and Dr. Xiaoxia Zhang qualify as "independent directors" under the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq and the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

#### Code of Ethics
Our Board has adopted a code of ethics (the "Code of Ethics") that establishes the standards of ethical conduct applicable to all of our directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors. The Code of Ethics addresses, among other things, competition and fair dealing, conflicts of interest, financial matters and external reporting, company funds and assets, confidentiality and corporate opportunity requirements and the process for reporting violations of the code of ethics, employee misconduct, conflicts of interest or other violations. Our Code of Ethics is publicly available on the investor relations section of our website at *https://investors.maisonsolutionsinc.com*. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this proxy statement. Any waiver of our Code of Ethics with respect to our directors, executive officers or other principal financial officers may only be authorized by our Board and will be disclosed as required by applicable law and the listing rules of Nasdaq.

#### Corporate Governance Guidelines
Our Board has adopted corporate governance guidelines (the "Corporate Governance Guidelines") to promote the effective functioning of the Board and its committees, and the continued implementation of good corporate governance practices. The Corporate Governance Guidelines address matters such as the role and structure of the Board and its committees, Board meetings, independent director executive sessions, director independence, qualifications for Board membership, director orientation and continuing education, CEO performance review, succession planning and Company policies. A copy of our Corporate Governance Guidelines is publicly available on the investor relations section of our website at *https://investors.maisonsolutionsinc.com*. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this proxy statement.

#### Insider Trading Policy

A copy of our Insider Trading Policy is publicly available on the investor relations section of our website at *https://investors.maisonsolutionsinc.com*. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this proxy statement.

#### Clawback Policy
Our Board has adopted a clawback policy (the "Clawback Policy") in compliance with the SEC's rules and regulations and the Nasdaq listing standards. Our Clawback Policy requires the repayment of certain cash and equity-based incentive compensation provided to current or former executive officers in connection with a restatement of financial statements if such compensation exceeds the amount that the executive officers would have received based on the restated financial statements. A copy of our Clawback Policy is included as Exhibit 97.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended April 30, 2025.

#### Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End ; Option Exercises and Stock Vested
None of our named executive officers have ever held options to purchase interests in it or other awards with values based on the value of its interests.

#### Limitation on Liability and Indemnification Matters
We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and officers that contain provisions that limit their personal liability for monetary damages. Consequently, our directors and officers will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties. With certain exceptions, these agreements provide for indemnification for related expenses including, among other things, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of our directors in any action or proceeding. We believe that these indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors. We also maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance.

Our amended and restated bylaws provide that we shall advance expenses incurred by a director in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in that capacity regardless of whether we would otherwise be permitted to indemnify him or her.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC001)

The limitation of liability represented by the indemnification agreements and the indemnification provisions in our amended and restated bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty of care. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Further, a stockholder's investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers. At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers or employees for which indemnification is sought, and we are not aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification.

#### PROPOSAL 2: AUDITOR RATIFICATION PROPOSAL
We are asking our stockholders to ratify the Audit Committee's selection of Kreit & Chiu CPA LLP ("KC") as our independent certified public accountants for the year ending April 30, 2027. If the stockholders do not ratify the appointment of KC, the selection of our independent certified public accountants may be reconsidered by our Audit Committee. The vote is non-binding and our audit committee retains discretion over the auditor appointment, even though a failed ratification vote may cause our audit committee to reconsider the selection.

Kreit & Chiu CPA LLP ("KC") has served as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm from since January 3, 2023.

The following table sets forth KC's fees for the years ended April 30, 2025 and April 30, 2024, respectively.

(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Audit Fees" means the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by our independent registered public accountant for the audits of our annual financial statements, the auditors' attestation of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, reviews of the related quarterly financial statements, and services that are normally provided by the independent accountants in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements, including reviews of documents filed with the SEC.

(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Audit-Related Fees" means the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by our independent registered public accountant that are related to the performance of the audit or review of the our financial statements and are not reported under "Audit Fees" and includes the review of Current Reports on Form 8-K and comfort letters in connection with public offerings.

(3)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Tax Fees" means the aggregate fees billed for the professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.

(4)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "All Other Fees" means the aggregate fees billed for services provided by our independent registered public accountant, other than the services reported under "Audit Fees," "Audit-Related Fees" and "Tax Fees."

#### Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures for Audit and Permitted Non-Audit Services
The Audit Committee is responsible for pre-approving all auditing services and permitted non-audit services (including the fees for such services and terms thereof) to be performed for the Company by its independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee is also responsible for considering whether the independent registered public accounting firm's performance of permissible non-audit services is compatible with its independence. These policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the provision of such services do not impair the independent registered public accounting firm's independence.

Consistent with these policies and procedures, the Audit Committee approved all of the services rendered by KC for the years ended on April 30, 2025 and April 30, 2024, as described above.

#### Vote Required and Board Recommendation
The vote required for the Auditor Ratification Proposal is a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The Board recommends a vote "**FOR**" the Auditor Ratification Proposal. Broker non-votes are not expected for the Auditor Ratification Proposal because it is a routine proposal, and that if any broker non-votes were to occur, they would have no effect under the votes-cast standard.

#### REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
The Audit Committee reviews the Company's financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. Management has the primary responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for preparing the financial statements and for the report process. The Audit Committee members do not serve as professional accountants or auditors, and their functions are not intended to duplicate or to certify the activities of management or the independent public accounting firm. The Audit Committee hereby reports as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company's audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025 with management.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Audit Committee has discussed with KC the matters required to be discussed by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and the SEC.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from KC required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding KC's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed KC's independence with a representative of KC.

Based on the review and discussion referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board and the Board approved that the audited financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2025 be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025 filed with the SEC.

The foregoing has been furnished by the Audit Committee:

#### DELINQUENT SECTION 16(A) REPORTS
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock (collectively, "reporting persons") to file reports regarding ownership of, and transactions in, our securities with the SEC. Based solely on our review of Forms 3, 4 and 5 and amendments thereto filed electronically with the SEC by the reporting persons, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and ten percent beneficial owners were complied with during the year ended April 30, 2025, except that Form 3 initial statements of beneficial ownership due on June 14, 2023 were not timely filed by Stratton Arms Holding, LLC ("Stratton") and Golden Tree USA Inc. ("Golden Tree") respectively. The failure to timely file the Form 3s was due to oversight, and Stratton and Golden Tree only recently determined that the Form 3s had not been filed. Both Stratton and Golden Tree are currently in the process of completing their EDGAR Next enrollments and intend to file their respective overdue Form 3 promptly after enrollments are completed. As of the date of this proxy statement, the overdue Form 3s have not yet been filed.
