Edward Smolyansky has filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ahead of Lifeway Foods Inc.'s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The filing continues Edward Smolyansky's effort to bring comprehensive changes to Lifeway Foods' board, citing concerns about governance, shareholder value, and leadership practices. He is urging shareholders to vote for his nominees-George Sent and Edward Smolyansky-via the GREEN universal proxy card. The proxy statement also proposes the formation of a new board committee made up exclusively of independent directors appointed or elected after September 30, 2025, to review executive leadership and the company's strategic direction. The shareholder group has criticized the current board for not appointing previously promised independent directors or setting a definitive date for the 2025 Annual Meeting.
