BY-LAWS OF

As Amended and Restated May 19, 2026

—oOo—

ARTICLE I.

OFFICES

The corporation may have such offices, either within or without the State of Wisconsin, as the business of the corporation may require from time to time.

The address of the registered office of the corporation required by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law may be changed from time to time by the Board of Directors.

ARTICLE II.

STOCKHOLDERS

Section 2.01 <u>Annual Meeting</u>. The annual meeting of the stockholders shall be held at such time and place during the year as determined by resolution of the Board of Directors, for the purpose of electing directors and for the transaction of such other business as may come before the meeting. If the election of directors shall not be held on the day designated for any annual meeting of the stockholders, or at any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors shall cause the election to be held at a special meeting of the stockholders as soon thereafter as may be convenient.

Section 2.02 <u>Special Meetings</u>. Special meetings of the stockholders, for any purpose or purposes unless otherwise prescribed by statute, may be called by the Chair or President or by the Board of Directors.

Section 2.03 <u>Place of Meeting</u>. Annual and special meetings of the stockholders may be held at such place, within or without the State of Wisconsin, as may be specified by the Chair or President or Board of Directors, or in the absence of such specification, as designated by the Secretary in the notice of the meeting. If no such designation is made, the place of the meeting shall be the registered office of the corporation in the State of Wisconsin, but any meeting may be adjourned to reconvene at any place designated by vote of a majority of the shares represented thereat. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that an annual meeting or special meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication in the manner authorized by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law.

Section 2.04 <u>Notice of Meeting</u>. Written notice stating the place (if any), day, hour and means of remote communication (if any) of every meeting of stockholders shall be delivered not less than ten (10) days before the date of the meeting, (unless a longer period is required by law), either personally or by mail, by or at the direction of the Chair or President, or the Secretary, or the Board of Directors calling the meeting, to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting. Notices of special meetings shall also specify the purpose or purposes for which the meeting has been called. For purposes of this Section 2.04, notice by "electronic transmission" (as defined in the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law) is written notice. Written notice is effective (a) when mailed, if mailed postpaid and addressed to the stockholder's address shown on the corporation's current record of stockholders, and (b) when electronically transmitted to the stockholder in a manner authorized by the stockholder.

------

Section 2.05 <u>Closing of Transfer Books or Fixing of Record Date</u>. For the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of stockholders for any other proper purpose, the Board of Directors of the corporation may provide that the stock transfer books shall be closed for a stated period but not to exceed in any case, seventy (70) days. If the stock transfer books shall be closed for the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders, such books shall be closed for at least ten (10) days immediately preceding such meeting. In lieu of closing the stock transfer books, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of stockholders, such date in any case to be not more than seventy (70) days and, in case of a meeting of stockholders, not less than ten (10) days prior to the date on which the particular action, requiring such determination of stockholders, is to be taken. If the stock transfer books are not closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders, or stockholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the close of business on the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or on the date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of stockholders. When a determination of stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall be applied to any adjournment thereof except where the determination has been made through the closing of the stock transfer books and the stated period of closing has expired.

Section 2.06 <u>Voting Lists</u>. The officer or agent having charge of the stock transfer books for shares of the corporation shall, before each meeting of stockholders, make a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of and the number of shares held by each, which list shall be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting for the purposes of the meeting. The original stock transfer books shall be prima facie evidence as to which stockholders may be entitled to examine such list, or transfer books, or to vote at any meeting of stockholders. Failure to comply with the requirements of this section shall not affect the validity of any action taken at such meeting.

Section 2.07 <u>Quorum</u>. Except as otherwise provided by law or the Articles of Incorporation, a majority of the outstanding shares of the corporation entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders, and a majority of votes cast at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be decisive of any motion or election. Though less than a quorum of the outstanding shares are represented at a meeting, a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified.

Section 2.08 <u>Proxies</u>. At all meetings of stockholders, a stockholder entitled to vote may vote by proxy appointed in writing by the stockholder or his or her duly authorized attorney in fact. Such proxy shall be filed with the Secretary of the Corporation before or at the time of the meeting. No proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy.

Section 2.09 <u>Voting of Shares</u>. Each outstanding share entitled to vote shall be entitled to one vote upon each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of the stockholders.

Section 2.10 <u>Voting of Shares by Certain Holders</u>. Shares standing in the name of another corporation may be voted by the President of such corporation, or any other officer or proxy appointed by such President, in the absence of express notice to this corporation, given in writing to the Secretary, of the designation of some other person by the board of directors or the by-laws of such other corporation.

Shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian, conservator, trustee in bankruptcy, receiver or assignee for creditors may be voted by him or her, either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares into his or her name provided that there is filed with the Secretary before or at the time of the meeting, proper evidence of his or her incumbency and the number of shares held. Shares standing in the name of a fiduciary may be voted by him or her, either in person or by proxy.

A stockholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such shares until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and thereafter the pledgee shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred.

Shares of its own stock belonging to the corporation shall not be voted directly or indirectly, at any meeting, and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares entitled to vote at any given time, but shares of its own stock held by it in fiduciary capacity may be voted and shall be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares at any given time.

Section 2.11 <u>Informal Action by Stockholders</u>. Any action required by the Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws, or any provisions of law to be taken at meeting of the stockholders, or any other action which may be taken at a meeting of the stockholders, may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all of the stockholders entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof.

------

Section 2.12 <u>Waiver of Notice by Stockholders</u>. Whenever any notice whatever is required to be given to any stockholder of the corporation under the Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws, or any provision of law, a waiver thereof in writing, signed at any time, whether before or after the time of meeting, by the stockholder entitled to such notice, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice; provided that such waiver in respect to any matter of which notice is required under any provisions of Chapter 180, Wisconsin Statutes, shall contain the same information as would have been required to be included in such notice, except the time and place of meeting.

Section 2.13 <u>Notice of Stockholder Business and Nominations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Annual Meetings of Stockholders</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) At an annual meeting of stockholders, only such nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the corporation and such other business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, nominations or other business must be: (A) specified in the corporation's notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Chair or President or the Secretary; (B) otherwise properly brought before the annual meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors; or (C) otherwise properly brought before an annual meeting by a Proposing Stockholder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a Proposing Stockholder pursuant to clause (C) of paragraph (a)(1) of this Section 2.13, the Proposing Stockholder must have delivered timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the corporation even if such matter is already the subject of any notice to the stockholders or public announcement from the Board of Directors. In addition, any proposed business (other than the nomination of persons for election to the Board of Directors) must be a proper matter for stockholder action under Wisconsin law. To be timely, a Proposing Stockholder's notice shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal offices of the corporation no later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day in advance of the anniversary of the previous year's annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered no later than the close of business on the later of the 60th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. In no event will adjournment or postponement (or public announcement thereof) of an annual meeting for which notice has already been given or for which a public announcement of the meeting date has already been made, commence a new notice time period (or extend any notice time period) for the giving of a stockholder's notice as described above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) For the nomination of any person or persons for election to the Board of Directors pursuant to clause (C) of paragraph (a)(1) of this Section 2.13 or Section 2.13(b), the Proposing Stockholder's notice to the Secretary of the corporation must be timely and must set forth or include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) as to each person, if any, whom the Proposing Stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the name, age, residence address, business address, and principal occupation or employment of such proposed nominee, the class or series and number of shares of stock of the corporation owned beneficially and of record by such proposed nominee, and all other information relating to such proposed nominee that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) a completed and executed written questionnaire with respect to the background, qualification, and independence of such proposed nominee, which questionnaire shall be provided by the Secretary of the corporation upon written request of any stockholder of record within five business days of such request;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) a written statement and agreement executed by each such proposed nominee acknowledging that the proposed nominee consents to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected, and intends to serve as a director if elected for the full term for which such person is standing for election; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) a written representation and agreement executed by each such proposed nominee that the proposed nominee (X) has read and agrees to adhere to the By-Laws and all publicly disclosed corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality, stock ownership and insider trading policies and guidelines of the corporation applicable to directors, (Y) is not and will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement, or understanding with any person or entity as to how such proposed nominee, if elected as a director of the corporation, will act or vote on any nomination or other business proposal, issue, or question (a "Voting Commitment") that has not been disclosed to the corporation or any Voting Commitment that could limit or interfere with such person's ability to comply, if elected as a director of the corporation, with such person's fiduciary duties under applicable law, and (Z) is not and will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement, or understanding with any person or entity other than the corporation with respect to any direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement, or indemnification in connection with such person's nomination for director or service as a director of the corporation that has not been disclosed to the corporation; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) as to the Proposing Stockholder, the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or other business proposal is made and if such Proposing Stockholder or beneficial owner is an entity, as to each director, executive, managing member, or control person of such entity (any such individual or control person, a "control person"):

Each stockholder whose shares are represented in uncertificated form shall receive the written statement, if any, required by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Certificates representing shares of the corporation shall be in such form as shall be determined by the Board of Directors. Such certificates shall be signed by the Chair, President, or a Vice President and by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary; and may be sealed with the seal of the corporation (which may be a facsimile) and countersigned and registered in such manner, if any, as the Board of Directors may prescribe. Whenever any certificate is countersigned by a transfer agent or registered by a registrar, other than the corporation itself or an employee of the corporation, the signatures of the Chair, President, Vice President, Secretary, or Assistant Secretary upon such certificate may be facsimiles. In case any officer who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon such certificate ceases to be such officer before such certificate is issued, it may be issued with the same effect, as if he or she were such officer at the date of its issue. All certificates for shares shall be consecutively numbered or otherwise identified. The name and address of the person to whom the shares represented thereby are issued, with the number of shares and date of issue, shall be entered on the stock transfer books of the corporation. All certificates surrendered to the corporation for transfer shall be canceled. In case of a lost, destroyed, or mutilated certificate a new one may be issued therefore upon such terms of indemnity to the corporation as these By-Laws may prescribe.

Section 6.02 <u>Transfer of Shares</u>. Transfer of shares of the corporation shall be made only on the stock transfer books of the corporation (a) upon presentation of the certificate or certificates representing such shares by the registered holder thereof or by such holder's duly authorized attorney or other legal representative and upon the surrender of such certificate or certificates, or (b) in the case of uncertificated shares, upon receipt by the corporation of proper transfer instructions from the registered owner of such uncertificated shares, or from such owner's duly authorized attorney or other legal representative and the presentation of proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer the shares. The person in whose name shares stand on the books of the corporation shall be deemed by the corporation to be the owner thereof for all purposes.

Section 6.03 <u>Stock Regulations</u>. The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to make all such further rules and regulations not inconsistent with the statutes of the State of Wisconsin as they may deem expedient concerning the issue, transfer, and registration of shares of the corporation.

Section 6.04 <u>Lost or Destroyed Certificates</u>. In case any stockholder shall present to the Secretary evidence satisfactory to the Chair, President, or Vice President and Secretary or Assistant Secretary that a certificate representing shares of this corporation has been lost or destroyed, the officers of the corporation shall issue a replacement certificate for such shares, which certificate shall be marked as a replacement, provided, and on condition, that the stockholder receiving such replacement certificate furnishes a bond in a form and amount satisfactory to the Chair, President, or Vice President and Secretary or Assistant Secretary to return the original certificate to the corporation for cancellation in case the same be found or discovered, and to hold harmless the corporation, its transfer agents and its registrars, of and from any loss, damage, costs, or expense from or on account of, or in connection with the issuance of such replacement certificate. A new certificate may be issued without a bond if, in the judgment of the Board or Directors, or, to the extent permitted under any federal or state law or regulation, or any stock listing requirements governing the corporation's listing on an exchange or over-the-counter market, by the Chair, President or Vice President of the corporation.

ARTICLE VII.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Section 7.01 The corporation shall and does by adoption of these By-Laws indemnify each person who is or was a director or officer of the corporation for such expenses and liabilities in such manner, under such circumstances, and to the full extent as permitted by the laws of the State of Wisconsin as now enacted or hereafter amended. Each person who is or was a director or officer of the corporation and also a director or officer of any other corporation or other enterprise which is served in any capacity at the request of the corporation (each, a "Covered Entity") shall also be indemnified by the corporation in the same manner and to the same extent provided in the preceding sentence for service as a director or officer of each Covered Entity.

Section 7.02

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon written request, the corporation shall advance reasonable expenses to, or where appropriate, in the corporation's discretion and at its expense, undertake the reasonable defense of, every director and officer in any proceeding in which such person was a party because he or she is a director or officer of the corporation (an "indemnified person") prior to the final disposition thereof upon receipt of a written affirmation of his or her good faith and belief that he or she has not breached or failed to perform his or her duties to the corporation and/or corporation's subsidiaries and an undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnified person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the indemnified person is not entitled to indemnification under this Article VII. In addition, the director or officer shall agree to be bound by the provisions of subparagraph (b) below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If an indemnified person shall receive payment from any insurance carrier or from the plaintiff in any proceeding against the indemnified person in respect of the expenses to which the indemnified person is entitled pursuant to Article VII (a) (the "indemnified amount"), the indemnified person shall promptly reimburse the corporation for the amount, if any, by which the sum of such payment by such insurance carrier or such plaintiff and payments by the corporation to the indemnified person exceeds such indemnified amounts; provided, however, that such portions, if any, of such insurance proceeds that are required to be reimbursed to the insurance carrier under the terms of its insurance policy, such as deductible or co-insurance payments, shall not be deemed to be payments to the indemnified person hereunder. In addition, upon payment of indemnified amounts under this Article VII, the corporation shall be subrogated to an indemnified person's rights against any insurance carrier in respect of such indemnified amounts and the indemnified person shall execute and deliver any and all instruments and/or documents and perform any and all other acts or deeds which the corporation deems necessary or advisable to secure such rights. The indemnified person shall do nothing to prejudice such rights of recovery or subrogation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon a director's or officer's written request, the corporation shall pay (in advance or otherwise) or reimburse any and all expenses reasonably incurred by the director or officer in connection with his or her or her appearance as a witness in any proceeding at a time when the director or officer has not been formally named a defendant or respondent to such a proceeding; provided, however, that such appearance shall be or have been required because of such person being a director or officer of the corporation.

ARTICLE VIII.

SEAL

ARTICLE IX.

**NATIONAL PRESTO INDUSTRIES, INC.**

**POLICY STATEMENT**

**REGARDING INSIDER TRADING**

(Updated May 2026)

**<u>SUMMARY</u>**

Federal laws and policies of National Presto Industries, Inc. (the "Company") prohibit transactions in Company stock or other securities when a person is in possession of material non-public information related to the Company. This policy statement assists directors, officers and employees in complying with the federal securities laws (the "the Policy").

Material information is any information that a reasonably prudent investor would consider to be important in making a decision to buy or sell a security. It certainly includes any information the public disclosure of which could be expected to affect the market price for the Company's stock. Either positive or negative information may be material. A person possessing such information must wait at least one full business day following the announcement of material information before engaging in any trade of the Company's securities, assuming at the time of the transaction the person does not have other material information that has not been made public.

This Policy also prohibits disclosure of material non-public information except on a need-to-know basis. Even if the person possessing such information is not engaging in any stock trading activity, the information may not be disclosed to others who have no need to know, including fellow employees, family members, friends and any others outside the Company. This information is owned by the Company and must be protected as such. **Any questions from brokers, securities analysts or the media regarding the Company must be directed to the President, Treasurer or the Secretary.**

This Policy applies to all officers, employees and members of the board of directors of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company, through the Treasurer or the Secretary, may also determine that other persons should be subject to this Policy, such as contractors or consultants who have access to material non-public information. This Policy also applies to family members and other members of the household of a person who is subject to this Policy, and entities that are controlled or influenced by a person who is subject to this Policy.

<u>Family Members</u>. This Policy applies to your family members, other members of a person's household who reside with you, anyone else who lives in your household, and any family members who do not live in your household but whose transactions in Company securities are directed by you or are subject to your influence or control, such as parents or children who consult with you before they engage in a transaction in Company securities (collectively referred to as "Family Members").

<u>Controlled Entities</u>. This Policy applies to any entities that you influence or control, including any corporations, partnerships or trusts (collectively referred to as "Controlled Entities"). Transactions by these Controlled Entities should be treated for the purposes of this Policy and applicable securities laws as if they were for your own account.

This Policy provides additional procedures (set forth below) which apply to certain individuals, due to the nature of their positions, who are assumed to have access to inside information. They are referred to as "restricted personnel" and their ability to trade is more limited than others in that their opportunity to trade is limited to proscribed dates and advance notice of their plan to trade must be provided to the Secretary or Treasurer, who must provide confirmation.

**The Need for a Policy Statement**

The Company's stock is publicly traded; therefore, the Company is required to take active steps to prevent violations of insider trading laws by Company personnel. The consequences of insider trading violations can be severe. <u>For individuals</u> who trade on inside information or tip information to others: a civil penalty, a criminal fine and a jail term. <u>For a company</u> (as well as possibly any supervisory person) that fails to take appropriate steps to prevent illegal trading: a civil penalty and a criminal penalty. In addition, any employee, director or consultant who violates the Company's confidential information and securities trading policy faces discipline or even termination of employment, whether or not the employee's failure to comply results in a violation of law.

------

**<u>POLICY STATEMENT</u>**

No director, officer or other employee of the Company (or any other person designated by this Policy or by the Company's Treasurer or Secretary as subject to this Policy) who is aware of material non-public information relating to the Company may, directly or through Family Members or Controlled Entities, (i) engage in transactions in the securities of the Company, except as otherwise specified below; (ii) recommend the purchase or sale of the Company's securities; or (iii) engage in any other action to take personal advantage of that information or pass that information on to others outside the Company, including family and friends.

Certain individuals, due to the nature of their positions, are assumed to have access to inside information. Referred to as "restricted personnel", these individuals include: (a) members of the Board of Directors of National Presto Industries, Inc., (b) all Officers of National Presto Industries, Inc., (c) full time direct reports to the President, Treasurer and Secretary of National Presto Industries, Inc., (d) members of the Boards of subsidiary companies that have manufacturing operations and/or product sales (e) all Officers of subsidiary companies and divisions thereof that have manufacturing operations and/or product sales, (f) direct reports to the President and Treasurer of subsidiary companies that have manufacturing operations and/or product sales, (g) administrative assistants supporting the persons holding the Officer positions identified in (b) and (e) above, (h) the General Counsel, (i) direct reports to the General Counsel, (j) all accountants working at National Presto Industries, Inc., and subsidiary companies and divisions thereof that have manufacturing operations and/or product sales, and (k) any other position or person (including independent contractors) designated in writing by any individual holding any of the positions identified in (a)-(j) above. To avoid even the appearance of impropriety, restricted personnel may trade only when they possess no material nonpublic information, a trading window is open and even then, as described in more detail below, only after they have submitted a pre-trade clearance form to the Company Secretary or Treasurer in advance and have received confirmation.

In addition, no director, officer or other employee (or any other person designated as subject to this Policy) who, in the course of working for the Company, learns of material non-public information about another company with which the Company does business (including a customer or supplier of the Company or its subsidiaries), may trade in that other company's securities until the information becomes public or is no longer material and may pass that information on to others outside the Company, including family and friends.

Transactions that on the surface may be necessary for independent reasons (such as the need to sell Company stock for money in an emergency situation) are no exception. Securities laws do not recognize any mitigating circumstances.

<u>Material Information</u>. Material information is any information that a reasonable investor would consider important in a decision to buy, hold or sell stock. In short, any information the public disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to affect the price of the stock is deemed to be material. Either positive or negative information may be material. Some examples of information that would ordinarily be regarded as material include:

● Unpublished financial results and financial forecasts;

● Changes in financial information of the Company as a whole or one or more principal subsidiaries from that previously disclosed to the public;

● Payment or omission of a dividend, increases or decreases in the dividend rate or changes in dividend policies;

● Pending or proposed mergers, acquisitions, takeovers or other Company transactions (including negotiations regarding such transactions), and any proposed or anticipated changes in the terms of any such transaction;

● Significant increases or decreases in backlog orders or the award or cancellation of a major contract;

● Gain or loss of a significant customer or supplier, or termination or reduction of a business relationship with a significant customer or supplier;

● Pending or proposed joint ventures;

● Significant changes in operations, such as interruption or curtailment of a major production facility;

● Introduction of new products or the commencement of a new business;

------

● Establishment, and the terms, of a program to repurchase the Company's own securities;

● Adverse change in liquidity, such as a sharply decreased inflow of collections from sales or the unavailability of needed credit;

● Significant changes in management;

● The purchase or sale of substantial assets or a significant change in the value of such assets;

● Bank borrowings or other financing transactions out of the ordinary course;

● Actual or threatened significant litigation or regulatory or governmental investigation of the Company, its management or employees (including decisions or settlements in those matters);

● Major product recalls;

● Restatements of historical financial statements;

● Significant cybersecurity incidents; and

● Any other significant activity which is not in the ordinary course of business, either because of the nature of the activity or the magnitude of the activity.

<u>Disclosing Information To Others</u>. Whether the information is proprietary information about the Company or one of its suppliers or customers, or information that could have an impact on the price of Company's or its supplier's or customer's securities, Company personnel must not pass the information on to others. The above penalties apply whether or not the individual derives any benefit from another's actions. In order to prevent unintentional disclosure, <u>all</u> inquiries and requests for information regarding the Company or the Company's suppliers or customers (e.g., from the media, stockbrokers or securities analysts) must be referred to the President, Treasurer or the Secretary.

<u>When Information Is Public</u>. Information should not be considered public until it has been disclosed broadly to the marketplace (generally through an SEC filing or press release) and the investing public has had time to absorb the information fully. As a general rule, information should not be considered fully absorbed by the marketplace until one full business day has elapsed since the information was released.

<u>Trading Window</u>. Restricted personnel may only conduct transactions in the Company's securities during the window period beginning one business day following the filing of a Form 10-K or 10-Q and ending on the last trading day of the calendar month during which the filing was made. However, even during such trading window, restricted personnel are prohibited from engaging in any transaction if they possess material non-public information. Similarly, the Company, through the Treasurer or Secretary, may impose special blackout periods during which certain persons will be prohibited from buying, selling or otherwise effecting transactions in any stock or other securities of the Company, even though the trading window would otherwise be open. If a special blackout period is imposed, the Company will notify affected individuals, who should thereafter not engage in any transaction involving the purchase or sale of the Company's securities and should not disclose to others the fact of such suspension of trading.

<u>Pre-Clearance.</u> Prior to making any Presto stock transaction (401K transactions, stock option grants or exercises, acquisitions, dispositions, transfers, gifts, etc.), restricted personnel must notify the Secretary or Treasurer of the proposed transaction by submitting the Pre-Trade Notification Form, as updated from time to time by the Company, and await the Secretary's or CFO's confirmation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, even if confirmation is received, restricted personnel are still prohibited from effectuating the transaction if they possess material non-public information or would violate any other provision of this policy or any applicable securities law or regulation. To the extent individuals are uncertain as to whether their knowledge would be deemed material non-public information, they are encouraged to consult with outside counsel. Failure to receive confirmation at all or on a timely basis shall not give rise to any claims against the Company or the Secretary or Treasurer.

------

**Exceptions to this Policy**

This Policy does not apply to the vesting of restricted stock, or the exercise of a tax withholding right pursuant to which you elect to have the Company withhold shares of stock to satisfy tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of any restricted stock. The Policy does apply, however, to any market sale of restricted stock.

This Policy does not apply to purchases of Company's securities in the Company's 401(k) plan resulting from your periodic contribution of money to the plan pursuant to your payroll deduction election. This Policy does apply, however, to changes in elections under the 401(k) plan, including an election to increase or decrease the percentage of your periodic contributions that will be allocated to the Company stock fund.

A transfer or contribution of the Company's securities to a voting trust or other entity that effects only a change in the form of beneficial ownership may be made at any time, subject to pre-approval by the Secretary or Treasurer.

As a limited exception to the prohibition against insider trading, this Policy permits restricted personnel to trade in Company securities regardless of their awareness of material inside information if the trade is made according to a pre-arranged trading plan that was entered into when the person was not in possession of material inside information. Company policy requires such trading plans to be written and to specify the amount of, date on and price at which the securities are to be traded, or to establish a formula for determining such items. Trading plans must be submitted in writing to the Secretary or Treasurer for approval before adoption or amendment.

**Additional Prohibited Transactions**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Trading in Company securities on a short-term basis</u>. Any Company stock purchased in the open market by restricted personnel must be held for a minimum of six months (Note that the SEC's short-swing profit rule prevents certain individuals from selling Company stock within six months of purchase)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Purchases on margin or short sales</u>. Although Presto stock is marginable because it is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, restricted personnel are not permitted, under Company policy, to "margin" Presto stock, whether for the purchase of Presto stock or any other securities. Restricted personnel are also prohibited from "selling short" Presto stock (a "short sale" is a sale of shares which the seller does not own but expects to purchase in the future at a lower price).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Buying or selling puts or calls on Presto securities</u>. Restricted personnel are prohibited from buying and selling "puts" and "calls" on Presto securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Hedging Transactions</u>. Certain forms of hedging or monetization transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts, allow a holder to lock in much of the value of his or her stock holdings, often in exchange for all or part of the potential for upside appreciation in the stock. These transactions allow the holder to continue to own the covered securities, but without the full risks and rewards of ownership. When that occurs, the holder may no longer have the same objectives as the Company's other shareholders. Accordingly, hedging transactions are prohibited by this Policy.

**Post-Termination Transactions**

Restricted personnel in possession of material nonpublic information when their employment terminates, may not trade in Company securities until that information is public or is no longer material.

**Company Assistance**

Any person who has any questions about this Policy Statement or questions about specific transactions should contact the Secretary. The ultimate responsibility for adhering to the Policy Statement and complying with all applicable laws, rests with the individual. Thus, it is imperative to use good judgment.

**<u>Certification</u>**

All persons subject to this Policy must certify their understanding of, and intent to comply with,

this Policy.

**NATIONAL PRESTO INDUSTRIES, INC. ANNOUNCES ELECTION OF DIRECTORS AT ITS ANNUAL STOCKHOLDER MEETING AND THE BOARD**'**S ELECTION OF SHANE STRAW AS ITS VICE PRESIDENT OF ENGINEERING**

Eau Claire, Wisconsin (May 20, 2026) – The stockholders of National Presto Industries, Inc. (NYSE: NPK) re-elected Randy F. Lieble and Joseph G. Stienessen to new three-year terms as directors at the May 19, 2026, annual stockholders meeting. The stockholders also ratified the appointment of RSM US LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026, and in a non-binding vote, the stockholders approved the compensation of the Company's named executive officers. During the meeting, Maryjo Cohen, President and CEO, revealed a change in strategy with respect to its sourcing of Housewares/Small Electric appliances. Rather than attempting to move all products from China to other countries, the segment would instead focus on the placement of new products in other jurisdictions. Finally, during the meeting, new Safety and Housewares segment products were introduced to the stockholders. Both sets of products are described below.

During the Board meeting, the directors elected Shane Straw, Sr. as the Vice President of Engineering. Mr. Straw had been the Housewares/Small Appliance segment's Director of Engineering since July 2025. Prior to joining Presto, he was the Executive Director of Engineering at Springs Windows Fashion in Madison, WI, and successively at Lippert Automotive in Eau Claire, WI, Director – Engineering and Supplier Quality, Director – Manufacturing Engineering and Quality, Director – Engineering and Testing, Director of Production. In commenting on Mr. Straw's new position, Ms. Cohen stated, "Shane Straw's background in all aspects of consumer products including innovation, quality control, manufacturing, and sourcing make him the ideal candidate for his new role. Presto is fortunate to have him on our team."

The Safety segment displayed the ten Rely FX™ fire extinguishers and four heavy-duty brackets officially announced on May 1. Eight of the ten extinguishers are dry chemical extinguishers in sizes ranging from four to twenty pounds, all of which are made in the U.S.A. The dry chemical extinguishers use an aluminum cylinder instead of the traditional steel, providing a corrosion-resistant shell that does not rust. Features include a reduced maintenance schedule and extra firefighting capability, e.g., a 20-pound unit has the same rating as a traditional 30-pound extinguisher. In addition to the dry chemical units, the line includes a water/loaded stream unit and one unit that is the first UL listed extinguisher that incorporates a Fluorine-free foam. Foam extinguishers are the preferred method of putting out liquid fuel fires. Fluorine foams have been banned in many jurisdictions due to health and environmental concerns related to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). There are two brackets for 20-pound extinguishers and one each for the four-pound and ten-pound units. Each is heavy duty. The units have been submitted for Mil-Spec approval, surviving shock and vibration impacts up to 200g forces.

The Housewares/Small Appliance products shown included 16- and 23-quart digital pressure canners and a 30-quart boiling water bath canner that doubles as a stock pot for steaming vegetables and seafood and keeping beverages warm. Each product simplifies and largely automates the canning process, so USDA Safe Canning Guidelines are met. Finally, the segment's restyled HeatDish® Plus parabolic heater was shown. Like its predecessors, the heater uses 1/3 the energy yet provides heat that feels three times as warm as a standard 1500-watt heater.

National Presto Industries, Inc. operates in three business segments. The Housewares/Small Appliance segment designs and sells small household appliances and pressure cookers under the PRESTO® brand name. The segment is recognized as an innovator of new products. The Defense segment manufactures a variety of products, including medium caliber training and tactical ammunition, energetic ordnance items, fuzes, cartridge cases, and metal parts. The Safety segment offers smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and commercial fire extinguishers.

This release contains "forward looking statements" made pursuant to the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions, which could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results and those presently anticipated or projected. In addition to the factors discussed above, other important risk factors are delineated in the Company's various SEC filings.
