**Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.**

On May 12, 2025, Shefford & Companies, Inc. (the "Company") filed Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of North Carolina to change its corporate name from "Shefford & Companies, Inc." to "Shefford Companies, Inc." (the "Name Change"). The Name Change became effective on May 28, 2026.

A copy of the Articles of Amendment effecting the Name Change is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 8.01. Other Events.** 

The Company is not current in its periodic reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company has initiated a plan to become current in such filings, which includes engaging a Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") registered independent accounting firm to audit its financial statements and working with experienced securities counsel to prepare and file the Company's delinquent Exchange Act reports as promptly as reasonably practicable.

The Company expects to seek relief from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to permit the filing of a comprehensive annual report on Form 10-K that would include information for multiple prior periods, in lieu of filing each missing periodic report separately, and there can be no assurance that any such relief will be granted.

**Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.**
