Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(d) On July 17, 2025, Michael D. Magill was elected as a director of Ennis, Inc. (the "Company") to replace the seat of Michael J. Schaefer. For reasons announced on May 6, 2025, the Company’s nominating and governance committee determined that it would not recommend Michael Schaefer for re-election upon the expiration of his term in July. Given the timing of that decision, the Board was unable to screen and approve a third director candidate prior to the preparation and publication of its Proxy Statement. Accordingly, the Board appointed Mr. Magill as director to temporarily fill the third seat after the expiration of Mr. Schaefer’s term in July. Next year, the Board anticipates four director candidates will be presented for a vote: one to complete the last two years of the term for the seat filled by the temporary appointee and the other three candidates for the seats with terms expiring in 2026.
