QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS RELATING TO THE 2025 ANNUAL MEETING

Why did I receive these materials?

Our shareholders as of the close of business on September 11, 2025, which we refer to as the “Record Date,” are entitled to vote at our annual meeting of shareholders, which will be held this year on November 10, 2025. As a shareholder, you are invited to attend the annual meeting and are requested to vote on the items of business (the “Proposals”) described in this proxy statement. We are required to distribute these proxy materials to all shareholders as of the Record Date. This proxy statement provides notice of the annual meeting of shareholders and includes information about the Proposals. The accompanying proxy card enables shareholders to vote on the Proposals without having to attend the annual meeting in person.

What is a proxy?

A proxy is your legal designation of another person (the “proxy”) to vote on your behalf. By completing and returning the enclosed proxy card, you are giving the Company’s Chairman of the Board and/or Chief Executive Officer and/or Chief Financial Officer the authority to vote your shares in the manner you indicate on your proxy card.

Why did I receive more than one set of voting materials?

You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement, multiple proxy cards or multiple voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you may receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a shareholder of record and your shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. If you hold some of your shares in a brokerage account and other shares in your own name, you will receive a voting instruction card from your broker for the shares the broker holds for you and a proxy card for the shares you hold in your own name. You will receive multiple proxy cards if you hold your shares in different ways (e.g., joint tenancy, trusts, and custodial accounts) or in multiple accounts.

If your shares are held by a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee (i.e., in “street name”), you will receive your proxy card or other voting information from your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee, and you should return your proxy card or cards to your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee.

Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and/or voting instruction card that you receive.

What is the difference between a “shareholder of record” and a “street name” holder?

These terms describe how your shares are held. If your shares are registered directly in your name with Computershare Investor Services (“Computershare”), the Company’s transfer agent, you are a “shareholder of record.” If your shares are held in the name of a brokerage, bank, trust or other nominee as a custodian, you are a “street name” holder.

How many shares must be present or represented to conduct business at the annual meeting?

The presence at the annual meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of not less than thirty-three and one-third percent (33⅓%) of the aggregate number of the Company’s common shares outstanding on the Record Date will constitute a quorum, permitting the conduct of business at the annual meeting. Based on 15,935,239 shares, which is the number of our common shares outstanding on September 11, 2025, the presence of holders representing at least 5,311,747 of our common shares will be required to establish a quorum for the annual meeting.

Proxies received but marked as abstentions, votes withheld and broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of votes considered present at the annual meeting for purposes of establishing the presence of a quorum.

Who is entitled to vote at the annual meeting?

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of, and to participate in, the annual meeting. If you were a shareholder of record on the Record Date, you will be entitled to vote all of the shares that you held on that date at the annual meeting, or any postponements or adjournments of the annual meeting.

If you are not a shareholder of record because the shares you own are held in “street name” by a bank or brokerage firm, your bank or brokerage firm is required to vote your shares according to your instructions. In order to vote your shares, you will need to follow the directions your bank or brokerage firm provides you.

Who can attend the annual meeting?

All shareholders as of the close of business on September 11, 2025 may attend the annual meeting. However, seating is limited and will be on a first arrival basis.

To attend the annual meeting, please follow these instructions:

• If you are a shareholder of record, bring proof of ownership of Deswell shares and a form of identification; or

• If a broker or other nominee holds your shares, bring proof of ownership of Deswell shares through such broker or nominee and a form of identification.

Under our Articles of Association, the Chairman of the Board of Directors serves as Chairman of our meetings of shareholders unless she is not present at the meeting, in which case our Chief Executive Officer serves as Chairman of the shareholders meeting. The “Articles of Association” of a business company like Deswell organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands are comparable to a U.S. company’s bylaws. As Ms. Wai Ming Lau, our Chairman, is not expected to be in attendance at our 2025 annual meeting, Mr. Edward So Kin Chung, Deswell’s Chief Executive Officer, will serve as Chairman at our 2025 annual meeting.

How can I vote my shares in person at the annual meeting?

Shares held in your name as the shareholder of record may be voted by you in person at the annual meeting. Shares held by you beneficially in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee may be voted by you in person at the annual meeting only if you obtain a legal proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares.

How can I vote my shares without attending the annual meeting?

Whether you hold shares directly as the shareholder of record or beneficially in “street name,” you may direct how your shares are voted without attending the annual meeting. If you are a shareholder of record (that is, if your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent), you must complete and properly sign and date the accompanying proxy card and return it and it will be voted as you direct. A pre-addressed envelope is included for your use and is postage paid if mailed in the United States. If you are a shareholder of record and attend the annual meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card in person. If you hold shares beneficially in “street name,” you may vote by submitting voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee.

Can I vote by telephone or electronically?

If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote by telephone, or electronically through the Internet, by following the instructions included in your proxy card. If your shares are held in “street name,” please check your proxy card or voting instructions received from your broker, bank or other nominee or contact your broker, bank or other nominee to determine whether you will be able to vote by telephone or electronically and the deadline for such voting.

Can I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes. If you are a shareholder of record, you may revoke or change your vote at any time before the proxy is exercised by delivering to our Secretary at the address shown at the beginning of this proxy statement a notice of revocation, or by signing a proxy card bearing a later date or by attending the annual meeting and voting in person.

For shares you hold beneficially in “street name,” you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee or, if you have obtained a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the annual meeting and voting in person. In either case, the powers of the proxy holders will be suspended if you attend the annual meeting in person and so request, although attendance at the annual meeting will not by itself revoke a previously granted proxy.

How many votes do I have?

You will be entitled to one vote for each common share of Deswell that you own as of the Record Date. As of the Record Date, we had 15,935,239 shares outstanding and eligible to vote.

Who counts the votes?

Votes will be counted and certified by Herman Wong, our Chief Financial Officer and our Inspector of Election. If you are a shareholder of record, your signed proxy card is returned directly to Computershare for tabulation. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee, your broker, bank or other nominee will return one proxy card to Computershare on behalf of its clients. Computershare will then report its tabulations of votes to our Inspector of Election, who will add them to the results of voting by shareholders attending the annual meeting in person.

What are the Board of Director’s recommendations on the Proposals to be considered at the annual meeting?

The Board of Directors’ recommendations are set forth together with the description of each item in this proxy statement. In summary, the Board of Directors recommends FOR the election of directors named in this proxy statement and FOR the ratification of the selection of BDO China Shu Lun Pan Certified Public Accountants LLP as Deswell’s independent registered public accountants for the year ending March 31, 2026.

Will shareholders be asked to vote on any other matters?

To the knowledge of the Company and its management, shareholders will vote only on the matters described in this proxy statement. However, if any other matters properly come before the annual meeting, the persons named as proxies for shareholders will vote on those matters in the manner they consider appropriate.

What vote is required to approve each Proposal?

If a quorum is present at the annual meeting:

• Election of Directors (Proposal 1).

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting is required for the election of each of the directors (Proposal 1). A properly executed proxy marked “WITHHOLD” with respect to the election of one or more directors will not be voted with respect to the director or directors indicated, although the votes represented by the proxy will be considered present at the annual meeting for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.

• Ratification of selection of BDO China Shu Lun Pan Certified Public Accountants LLP as Deswell’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 (Proposal 2).

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or represented by proxy on Proposal 2 is required for approval. Abstentions on this Proposal will not be treated as votes cast, but the votes represented by the proxy will be considered present at the annual meeting for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.

How are votes counted?

In the election of directors (Proposal 1), you may vote “FOR” all or some of the nominees or your vote may be marked “WITHHOLD” with respect to one or more of the nominees. You may not cumulate your votes for the election of directors.

For Proposal 2, you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN.” If you elect to “ABSTAIN,” the abstention will not be treated as a vote cast, but the votes represented by the proxy will be considered present for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.

If you hold your shares in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee rather than directly in your own name, then your broker, bank or other nominee is considered the shareholder of record, and you are considered the beneficial owner of your shares. We have supplied copies of our proxy statement to the broker, bank or other nominee holding your shares of record, and they have the responsibility to send it to you. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares at the annual meeting. The broker, bank or other nominee that is the shareholder of record for your shares is obligated to provide you with a voting instruction card for you to use for this purpose. If you hold your shares in a brokerage account but you fail to return your voting instruction card to your broker, your shares may constitute “broker non-votes.” Generally, broker non-votes occur on a matter when a broker is not permitted to vote on that matter without instructions from the beneficial owner and instructions are not given. Broker non-votes are counted in determining whether a quorum is present. However, in tabulating the voting results for any particular proposal, shares that constitute broker non-votes are not considered present and entitled to vote on that proposal.

If a quorum is present at the annual meeting, the election of each of the directors requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting (Proposal 1).

Similarly, if a quorum is present at the annual meeting, the ratification of the appointment of our independent auditors (Proposal 2) requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting.

Because of certain rules of the New York Stock Exchange, and their interpretation, which govern when brokers may or may not vote their brokerage clients’ voting securities in the absence of instructions from the beneficial owners, brokers may not vote on Proposal 1 without receiving instructions from the beneficial owners.

If brokers neither receive instructions from the beneficial owners nor vote on any of the Proposals, but nevertheless return signed proxies without voting, a broker non-vote on Proposal 1 would occur. That broker non-vote would count for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the annual meeting, but would not be voted on Proposal 1.

Deswell’s audit committee consists of Messrs.

Mr. Allen Yau-Nam Cham currently acts as the Chairman of the Audit Committee.

Other Committees; NASDAQ Compliance

Various corporate governance practices required of public companies with securities listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market are not required of “controlled companies” such as Deswell.

PROPOSAL 2

RATIFY SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

The Board of Directors has selected BDO China Shu Lun Pan Certified Public Accountants LLP, which is sometimes referred to in this proxy statement as “BDO China,” as independent registered public accountants of the Company for the year ending March 31, 2026 and further directed that the Company submit the selection of its independent registered public accountants for ratification by shareholders at the Company’s annual meeting.

BDO China acted as Deswell’s principal accountants for the audit of its financial statements at, and for the years ended, March 31, 2024 and 2025.

The following table presents the aggregate fees for professional services and other services rendered to Deswell by BDO China for the years ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025.

	Year ended March 31,

Tax fees(3)		—		—
All other fees(4)		—		—
	$	420	$	428

____________

(1) Audit Fees consist of fees billed for the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements. They also include fees billed for other audit services, which are those services that only the external auditor reasonably can provide, and include the provision for consents relating to the review of documents filed with the SEC.

(2) There were no other audit-related fees billed by the principal accountant during the last two fiscal years for assurance and related services that were reasonably related to the performance of the audit not reported under “Audit Fees” above.

(3) There were no tax fees billed by the principal accountants during the last two fiscal years for advice services.

(4) There were no other fees billed by the principal accountants during the last two fiscal years for products and services provided.

The Board of Directors recommends that the shareholders ratify the selection of BDO China as independent registered public accountants of the Company for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the Company present at the annual meeting in person or by proxy is required to ratify the selection of BDO China as independent registered public accountants of the Company for the year ending March 31, 2026.

If the appointment of BDO China is not ratified, the Board of Directors will evaluate the basis for the shareholders’ vote when determining whether to continue the firm’s engagement, but may ultimately determine to continue the engagement or engage another audit firm without re-submitting the matter to shareholders. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may act to engage a different independent auditing firm at any time during the year if the Board of Directors determines that such a change would be in the Company’s and its shareholders’ best interests.

Audit Committee Pre-approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit related services provided by the independent auditors. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services. Management will periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided and the fees for the services performed by the independent auditors in accordance with this pre-approval policy. The Audit Committee may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis.

OTHER BUSINESS

The Board of Directors knows of no other business to be acted upon at the annual meeting. However, if any other matter shall properly come before the annual meeting, the proxy holder named in the proxy accompanying this statement will have discretionary authority to vote all proxies in accordance with his best judgment.
