Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On May 18, 2026, the Board of Directors of Rocky Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) authorized an increase of the Company’s quarterly dividend to $0.17 per share of outstanding common stock. The increased dividend will be payable on June 15, 2026 to all shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 1, 2026.

 

On May 18, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the increase in quarterly cash dividend, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The information contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Those statements include, but may not be limited to, all statements regarding intent, beliefs, expectations, projections, forecasts, and plans of the Company and its management. These forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, the various risks inherent in the Company’s business as set forth in periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (filed March 11, 2026) and quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2026 (filed May 5, 2026). One or more of these factors have affected historical results, and could in the future affect, the Company’s businesses and financial results in future periods and could cause actual results to differ materially from plans and projections. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 8-K will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the Company, or any other person should not regard the inclusion of such information as a representation that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. All forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 8-K are based on information presently available to the management of the Company. The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
