Shareholders who have not voted are urged to vote FOR Proposal 1

PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 26, 2025 – Pixelworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: PXLW) (“Pixelworks” or the “Company”), a leading provider of innovative video and display processing solutions, today announced that its Special Meeting of Stockholders held on November 26, 2025 (the “Special Meeting”) has been adjourned until December 8, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. Pacific time to give shareholders additional time to vote on Proposal 1. Proposal 1 would authorize the sale of all the shares of the Company’s subsidiary, Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (Shanghai), held indirectly by the Company (the “Sale”). Although the proposal has received significant support based on the shares that had been voted by November 26, 2025, the requisite approval by holders of at least 67% of the outstanding shares of common stock on the record date for the special meeting has not yet been received for Proposal 1.

When the Special Meeting was convened, approximately 98% of the shares that had been voted on Proposal 1 were voted in its favor but represented only approximately 57% of the shares of common stock outstanding on the record date for the Special Meeting. The Board of Directors continues to believe that the approval of Proposal 1 is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and both leading independent proxy voting advisory groups, Institutional Shareholder Services and Glass Lewis, recommended that shareholders vote FOR Proposal 1. Proposal 1 is described in more detail in the proxy statement filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 27, 2025 (the “Special Meeting Proxy Statement”), as supplemented by additional definitive proxy materials filed by the Company on November 4, 2025.

The adjourned Special Meeting will be held in a virtual format and shareholders of record on October 17, 2025, will be able to listen and participate in the reconvened meeting, as well as vote and submit questions during the meeting by dialing 1-888-788-0099. The conference ID number for the Special Meeting is 85737219104.

The Company’s Board of Directors encourages any shareholder as of the record date of October 17, 2025, who has not yet voted their shares on Proposal 1 or is uncertain if their shares have been voted on Proposal 1 to contact their broker or bank to vote their shares as soon as possible, but no later than December 7, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time.

Stockholders who have previously submitted their proxy or otherwise voted on Proposal One at the Special Meeting of Shareholders and who do not wish to change their vote need not take any action. For questions relating to the voting of shares or to request additional or misplaced proxy voting materials, please contact the Company’s proxy solicitor, Alliance Advisors, for assistance in voting your shares toll free (in the U.S.) at 1-855-206-1342 or via email at PXLW@allianceadvisors.com.

Votes must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on December 7, 2025, to be counted. After this time, votes can only be cast by record holders as of October 17, 2025, during the adjourned Special Meeting on December 8, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. Pacific time at 1-855-206-1342 or via email at PXLW@allianceadvisors.com.
