On December 9, 2025, HealthStream, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (the “Company”) announced in a press release that the Company’s chief executive officer, Robert A. Frist, Jr., has contributed approximately $3.5 million of his personally owned shares of Company common stock to the Company, without any consideration paid to Mr. Frist, for the benefit of over 700 HealthStream employees, excluding executive officers, vice presidents, and associate vice presidents. The press release also announced that the Company has approved the grant of that same number of shares under its 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan to these employees. These shares, which will not be subject to any vesting conditions, will be issued effective immediately. In addition, the press release announced that Mr. Frist has contributed approximately $275,000 of additional shares to the Company, without any consideration paid to Mr. Frist, which amount is equivalent to the estimated Company costs associated with the equity grants, such as administrative expenses and employer payroll taxes associated with the grants. A copy of the press release making this announcement is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
