PROXY STATEMENT

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is soliciting your proxy with this Proxy Statement. Your proxy will be voted at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time, at the corporate offices of Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc., 3033 Riviera Drive, Suite 200, Naples, Florida 34103, and any adjournment or postponement thereof. This Proxy Statement and the Company’s Annual Report to Stockholders are first being made available to stockholders on or about May 29, 2026.

VOTING SECURITIES

Voting Rights and Outstanding Shares

Only stockholders of record on the books of the Company as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern time, May 26, 2026, which is the “Record Date,” will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on May 26, 2026, the Company had 975,280 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding (the “Class A Common Stock”) and 833,137 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding (the “Class B Common Stock,” and together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”).

Under the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), in the election of directors, the holders of the Class A Common Stock are entitled to vote as a separate class, exclusive of all other stockholders, to elect two of the Company’s directors, with each Class A Common Stock being entitled to one vote. With respect to the election of the other five directors and all other matters submitted to the stockholders for vote, the holders of Common Stock shall vote as a single class, with each Class A Common Stock being entitled to one vote and each Class B Common Stock entitled to ten votes.

Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Annual Meeting will be tabulated by the Inspector of Elections with the assistance of the Company’s transfer agent. Except with respect to the election of directors (which is discussed separately under “Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors”), the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast in person or by proxy at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is present is required under our Bylaws for approval of the proposals presented in this Proxy Statement.

The Inspector will also determine whether or not a quorum is present. Our Bylaws provide that a quorum consists of the presence in person or by proxy of at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on a matter to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. An abstention is deemed present but it is not deemed a vote cast. Broker non-votes occur when a broker, bank or other nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker, bank or other nominee does not have discretionary voting power on that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Abstentions and broker non-votes are included in determining whether a quorum is present but are not included in the tabulation of the voting results. As such, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the voting results with respect to the election of directors or the proposals requiring the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is a routine proposal on which brokers, banks or other nominees possess discretionary voting power absent instructions from the beneficial owner. Thus, the Company does not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal.

Stockholders of record may submit their proxy by telephone or via the Internet prior to the Annual Meeting, rather than filling out and mailing a proxy card. To help explain this process, we have included a brief question and answer section below.

How do I vote my shares without attending the Annual Meeting?

If you are a stockholder of record, you can vote by telephone or via the Internet by following the instructions on the Notice of Availability of Proxy Materials.

If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee, follow the voting instructions on the form that you receive from them. The availability of telephone and Internet voting will depend on the process of the bank, broker or other nominee. Your bank, broker or other nominee will not be permitted to exercise voting discretion as to the matters to be acted upon other than the ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Therefore, please give voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee.

How will my proxy be voted?

Your proxy, when properly submitted by telephone or via the Internet and not revoked, will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If any other matter is properly presented, the persons named as proxies will have discretion to vote in their best judgment.

Unless you give other instructions when you cast your vote by telephone or Internet, the persons named as proxies will vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors and a vote will be cast FOR the election of each of the nominees for director, FOR the advisory vote to approve named executive officer compensation, FOR the ratification of Crowe LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026, and as the proxy holders deem advisable on other matters that may come before the meeting. If a bank, broker or other nominee indicates on the proxy that it does not have discretionary authority as to certain shares to vote on a particular matter, those shares will not be considered as present with respect to that matter. The Company believes that the tabulation procedures to be followed by the Inspector are consistent with the general statutory requirements in Delaware concerning voting of shares and determination of a quorum.

May I revoke or change my vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may revoke your proxy at any time before it is actually voted by:

• giving written notice of revocation to Chris Ornelas, Secretary, Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc., 3033 Riviera Drive, Suite 200, Naples, Florida 34103;

• by delivering a proxy bearing a later date (including by telephone or via the Internet); or

• by attending and voting in person at the Annual Meeting.

Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you specifically make that request. If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your bank, broker or other nominee, or, if you have obtained a legal proxy from your bank, broker or other nominee giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

How do I vote my shares in person at the Annual Meeting?

Shares held in your name as the stockholder of record may be voted in person at the Annual Meeting. Shares held beneficially in street name may be voted in person at the Annual Meeting only if you obtain a legal proxy from the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also submit your proxy or voting instructions as described above and on the Notice of Availability of Proxy Materials, so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

What is the deadline for voting my shares?

If you are a stockholder of record, and plan to vote by telephone or via the Internet, your vote must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on July 21, 2026. If your shares are held in street name, you should return your voting instructions in accordance with the instructions provided by the bank, broker or other nominee that holds the shares on your behalf.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition, the Company may reimburse brokerage firms and other persons representing beneficial owners of shares for their expenses in forwarding solicitation material to such beneficial owners.

Proxies may also be solicited by certain of the Company’s directors, officers and regular employees, without additional compensation, personally, by telephone or via electronic communications.

PROPOSAL NO. 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Seven directors are to be elected at the Annual Meeting to hold office until the next Annual Meeting of stockholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified.

Nominees for election to the Board of Directors shall be approved by the following vote:

• For Nominees to be Elected by the Holders of the Class A Common Stock: by a majority of the votes cast by all the holders of Class A Common Stock entitled to vote, whether present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, with each share being entitled to one vote.

• For Nominees to be Elected by the Holders of All Classes of Common Stock: by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of all classes of Common Stock present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, with each Class A Share being entitled to one vote and each Class B Share being entitled to ten votes.

Abstentions from voting on the election of directors and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors. In the event any nominee is unable or unwilling to serve as a nominee, the proxies may be voted for the balance of those nominees named and for any substitute nominee designated by the present Board of Directors or the proxy holders to fill such vacancy, or for the balance of those nominees named without nomination of a substitute, and/or the size of the Board of Directors may be reduced in accordance with the Bylaws of the Company. The nominees named below have agreed to serve if elected, and the Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any of the persons named will be unable or unwilling to serve as a nominee or as a director if elected.

The Board of Directors believes that each of the nominees listed brings strong skills and extensive experience to the Board, giving the Board as a group the appropriate skills to exercise its oversight responsibilities.

Unless otherwise indicated, proxies received will be voted FOR the election of each of the nominees named above.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors:

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “ FOR ” the election of each of the nominees named above.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES

The Company’s Board of Directors met five times during 2025. Each of the then-current members of the Board attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings held during 2025 of the Board of Directors and the committees of the Board of Directors of which he or she was a member. The Company does not have a formal policy regarding director attendance at annual meetings of stockholders, but encourages directors to attend. All of our then-current directors attended the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Controlled Company

The Company qualifies as a “controlled company,” within the meaning of Rule 5615(c)(1) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. The Company currently qualifies as a controlled company because more than 50% of the Company’s voting power is controlled by the entities affiliated with the Beasley family. As a result, the Company is not required

to have a Board of Directors consisting of a majority of directors who are independent or a compensation committee or nominating committee composed solely of independent directors.

Leadership Structure

The Board of Directors believes that the appropriate leadership structure should be based on the needs and circumstances of the Board, the Company and its stockholders at a given point in time, and that the Board should remain adaptable to shaping the leadership structure as those needs change in the future.

The Board of Directors currently has determined that having Caroline Beasley serve as both Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders. The Board of Directors believes that this leadership model is efficient and effective for the Company at this time because it creates clear lines of command throughout the entire Company. In her position as Chief Executive Officer, Ms. Beasley has primary responsibility for the day-to-day operations of the Company and provides consistent leadership on the Company’s key strategic objectives. In her role as Chair of the Board, she sets the strategic priorities for the Board, presides over its meetings and communicates its strategic findings and guidance to management. The Board of Directors believes that this structure reduces the likelihood of confusion about leadership roles and duplication of efforts. This structure also allows the Board of Directors to benefit from Ms. Beasley’s detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges facing the Company, as it positions her to identify the key risks facing the organization and ensure that these are brought to the attention of the Board of Directors.

The Company has procedures to ensure a strong and independent Board of Directors. The Audit and Compensation Committees consist entirely of non-management directors. The non-management directors of the Board are well positioned, as members of the Audit Committee, to assist the Board in overseeing the Company’s enterprise risk management program that includes processes used to identify and assess the Company’s most significant risks and actions taken by management to manage and mitigate such risk exposures. The non-management directors are also well positioned to provide input on the design of the Board, including committee oversight responsibilities. In addition to their responsibilities on these Committees, these independent directors meet in executive sessions after each meeting of the Board of Directors without any members of management present and at the direction of the lead independent director, Mr. Fiorile. The purpose of these executive sessions is to promote open and candid discussion among the non-management directors.

Lead Independent Director Role in Risk Oversight

In connection with these processes and in addition to management’s regular reviews of significant risks with the Board and committees, the Board believes that Mr. Fiorile is uniquely qualified in his role as the lead independent director to assist the Board in overseeing the identification, assessment, and management of the Company’s exposure to various risks as a result of his extensive public company risk management experience. The Board believes Mr. Fiorile has effectively leveraged his experience to provide leadership and help guide the Board’s independent oversight of the Company’s risk exposures as the lead independent director by collaborating with the Chair to help identify matters to be brought to the Board, chairing executive sessions of the non-management directors, facilitating communications between independent directors.

The Board of Directors Role in Risk Oversight

Management is responsible for the Company’s day-to-day risk management activities, and the role of the Board of Directors is to engage in informed risk oversight. In fulfilling this oversight role, the Board of Directors focuses on understanding the nature of our short-term, immediate-term and long-term enterprise risks, including our operations and strategic direction, as well as the adequacy of our risk management processes and overall risk management system. The Board and its committees provide effective oversight through regularly scheduled meetings with management to discuss in-depth the strategic objectives of the company and associated risks.

The Board of Directors performs this function by receiving management updates on the Company’s business operations, financial results and strategy at its regularly scheduled meetings. The Audit and Compensation

Committees, which consist entirely of independent directors, assist the Board of Directors in its oversight of risk management. Currently, the risk areas reported to the Board of Directors relate to credit risk, liquidity risk, fraud risk and operational risks, including regulatory, economic, competitive, cybersecurity, legal, and mergers and acquisitions risks.

The Board of Directors administers its risk oversight function by (i) identifying key areas of risk exposure facing the Company; (ii) discussing the level of risk the Company is willing to take and the variance from stated risk tolerance that is considered acceptable; (iii) identifying and discussing the key risk indicators and the early warning signs of increased risk exposure; and (iv) discussing with management the Company’s guidelines for monitoring risk indicators and encouraging communication of key risk indicators to management and the Board of Directors.

Director Independence

Our Board of Directors currently consists of seven members. Our Board of Directors has determined that all of our directors and nominees for election as directors, other than Caroline Beasley, Bruce G. Beasley and Brian E. Beasley, qualify as “independent” in accordance with the listing requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”). In addition, former Board members Leslie V. Godridge and Charles M. Warfield, Jr. qualified as "independent" in accordance with the listing requirements of Nasdaq during the time that they served on the Board during 2025. The Nasdaq independence definition includes a series of objective tests, including that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director nor any of his or her family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, as required by Nasdaq Listing Rules, our Board of Directors has made a subjective determination as to each independent director that no relationships exist, which, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In making these determinations, our Board of Directors reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.

Board Composition

The Board of Directors does not have a specific policy regarding the composition of the Board of Directors. However, as a matter of practice, the Board of Directors recommends candidates based on their business or professional experience, background, talents and perspectives. The Board of Directors considers various backgrounds and perspectives in the context of the Board of Directors as a whole and takes into account the personal characteristics, including gender, ethnicity, age, experience, including financial expertise, and educational and professional background of current and prospective directors. The Board of Directors believes this process will best facilitate Board deliberations that reflect a broad range of perspectives and lead to a more effective decision-making process.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee.

The Board of Directors currently does not have a nominating committee or a committee performing the functions of a nominating committee. The Board of Directors is not required to have a nominating committee because the Company is a controlled company as defined in the Nasdaq Listing Rules and believes it is appropriate for the full Board of Directors to perform the nominating functions. Although there are no formal procedures for stockholders to nominate persons to serve as directors, the full Board of Directors will consider recommendations from stockholders in the same manner and using the same criteria as for other candidates. Candidate recommendations should be addressed to Chris Ornelas, Secretary, Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc., 3033 Riviera Drive, Suite 200, Naples, Florida 34103. The Company has not adopted a formal process because it believes that the informal consideration process has been adequate to date.

The Audit Committee, established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), consists of Mr. Fiorile, Mr. Smith and Mr. Bordes, each of whom qualifies

as independent under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Fiorile is an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined in the Exchange Act. The purpose and responsibilities of the Audit Committee, as set forth in its written charter, include:

• Overseeing the integrity of the Company’s financial statements;

• Overseeing the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;

• Appointing and retaining independent auditors to conduct the annual audit of the Company’s financial statements;

• Overseeing the independent auditor’s qualifications and independence;

• Overseeing the performance of the Company’s independent auditor;

• Reviewing the proposed scope of the audit and approving the audit fees to be paid;

• Reviewing the Company’s accounting and financial controls with the independent auditors and its financial and accounting staff; and

• Reviewing and approving transactions, other than compensation matters, between the Company and its directors, officers and affiliates.

The Audit Committee met four times and acted via unanimous written consent once during 2025. The current charter of the Audit Committee is available on the Company’s website at www.bbgi.com/corporate-governance.

The Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Fiorile, Smith and Bordes, each of whom qualifies as independent under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. This Committee is responsible for establishing compensation policies for the Company’s executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer, and reviewing the Company’s compensation plans to ensure that they meet corporate objectives. The responsibilities of the Compensation Committee also include administering and interpreting the Company’s equity incentive award plans. The Compensation Committee met one time during 2025. As a “controlled company,” the Compensation Committee is not required to, and does not, have a charter.

In May 2026, the Board established a Strategic Alternatives Committee. The Strategic Alternatives Committee has sole and exclusive authority and power to explore, review, consider, evaluate, and negotiate any debt or equity or other financing, asset sale, restructuring, recapitalization, bankruptcy, or strategic transaction and other similar opportunities and transactions for the Company and its subsidiaries. The Strategic Alternatives Committee consists of Messrs. Fiorile and Goldberg, and Ms. Beasley

Stockholder Communication with Board Members

Although the Company has not to date developed formal processes by which stockholders may communicate directly to directors, it believes that the informal process (in which stockholder communications received by the Secretary for the Board of Directors’ attention, or summaries thereof, will be forwarded to the Board of Directors) has served the Board’s and the stockholders’ needs. In view of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements relating to this issue, the Board of Directors may consider developing more specific procedures. Until any other procedures are developed and posted on the Company’s corporate website, any communications to the Board of Directors should be sent to it in care of Chris Ornelas, Secretary, Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc., 3033 Riviera Drive, Suite 200, Naples, Florida 34103.

PROPOSAL NO. 2: ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION.

Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, we provide our stockholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on a non-binding, advisory

basis, the overall compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement. This advisory vote is commonly referred to as “say-on-pay.”

In 2025, the Board of Directors recommended that this say-on-pay vote be conducted annually, and stockholders voted in favor of this recommendation by a substantial majority. Accordingly, the Board of Directors has determined that it will include an advisory resolution to approve named executive officer compensation annually until the next vote to determine the frequency of such an advisory vote in 2031.

Our executive compensation programs are designed to convey recognition of services performed by the recipients and motivate and retain the recipients over the long term. The purpose of the executive compensation program is to provide competitive compensation in order to attract, motivate, and retain talented and experienced executives, who are instrumental to our success, and to reward the executive officers for the achievement of short-term and long-term strategic and operational goals and the creation of enhanced value for our stockholders. We seek to closely align the interests of our named executive officers with the interests of our stockholders, and our Compensation Committee regularly reviews named executive officer compensation against peer companies, general market trends and other industry data to ensure that such compensation is consistent with our compensation philosophy.

Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to vote on the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Summary Compensation Table and other disclosure in the “Executive Compensation” section of the Proxy Statement.”

This advisory resolution is non-binding on the Board of Directors. Although non-binding, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee will carefully review and consider the voting results when evaluating our executive compensation program.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors:

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “ FOR ” proposal number 2.

PROPOSAL NO. 3: RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.

The Audit Committee has appointed Crowe LLP (“Crowe”) as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 and is proposing that the stockholders ratify such appointment. Crowe has served as the Company’s independent auditors since 2006.

Although ratification is not required by law, the Audit Committee believes that our stockholders should be given an opportunity to express their views on the subject. Since the Audit Committee cannot abdicate this authority to the stockholders, the ratification of the appointment is not binding. Any failure of the stockholders to ratify the appointment of Crowe as our independent registered public accounting firm would, however, be considered by the Audit Committee in determining whether to continue the engagement of Crowe.

In making this appointment, the Audit Committee considered whether the audit and non-audit services Crowe will provide are compatible with maintaining the independence of the Company’s outside auditors. The Audit Committee has adopted a policy that sets forth the manner in which the Audit Committee will review and approve all services to be provided by Crowe before the firm is retained. The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permitted non-audit services to be performed for the Company by its independent public accountants. The chairperson of the Audit Committee may represent the entire committee for the purposes of pre-approving permitted non-audit services. The Audit Committee does not consider the provision of the permitted non-audit services to be incompatible with maintaining the independent public accountant’s independence.

Representatives of Crowe are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so. They are also expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Audit Fees, Other Fees and Services of Independent Registered Public Accountants

The following table summarizes fees billed to the Company by Crowe in 2024 and 2025:

Audit fees (1)	$ 366,000	$ 366,500
Audit-related fees	—	—
Tax fees	—	—
All other fees	—	—
	$ 366,000	$ 366,500

(1) Includes fees billed for (i) the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements in 2024 and 2025, (ii) the review of the Company’s quarterly financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q in 2024 and 2025, and (iii) the annual audits of the Company’s benefit plan in 2024 and 2025.

All of the services provided to the Company by Crowe during 2024 and 2025 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors:

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “ FOR ” proposal number 3.

In September 2021, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Brian E. Beasley, effective as of July 1, 2021, pursuant to which he serves as Chief Operating Officer.

Each of the employment agreements also contains a confidentiality provision and non-competition covenant that applies for one year following termination of employment, except that if a named executive officer is terminated by the Company other than for cause or resigns employment for good reason, then the non-competition period will end on the earliest of one year following termination of employment, the date the executive waives any right to receive severance payments under the employment agreement or the date of termination if the executive is not entitled to receive any severance payments in connection with the employment termination.

Executive Compensation

Our executive compensation program consists primarily of base salary, which is intended to provide a fixed component of compensation reflecting the executive’s skill set, experience, role, and responsibilities, and two forms of incentive compensation, annual cash bonuses and equity awards. The annual cash bonus component is typically designed to convey an immediate recognition of services performed by the recipient, while the equity component is tied to vesting requirements and is designed not only to compensate but also to motivate and retain the recipient over the vesting period.

All of our named executive officers receive an annual base salary and are eligible to receive annual cash bonuses under our Performance Incentive Plan and equity-based awards under our 2025 Equity Incentive Award Plan.

2025 Base Salaries

Our named executive officers receive a base salary to compensate them for services rendered to our Company. The base salaries of our named executive officers are reviewed from time to time and adjusted when our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee determines an adjustment is appropriate.

2025 Cash Bonuses

Annual cash bonus awards are determined based upon our Company’s achievement against a pre-established financial performance metric and the Compensation Committee’s subjective assessment of performance. Target bonus award levels are set for each of Caroline Beasley and Brian Beasley, and awards may be earned above or below the target level based on the total performance assessment, as determined by our Compensation Committee, although no pre-set formulas are established for this purpose. Subjective performance factors that are considered from time to time include station ratings, acquisition and divestiture activity, the Company’s ability to manage extraordinary events and market conditions and the Company’s overall performance relative to other similarly situated radio companies. For 2025, the target bonus award levels for Caroline Beasley and Brian Beasley were $1,250,000, and $525,000, respectively. The amount of the cash bonus, if any, for Bruce Beasley is determined by the Compensation Committee based on criteria established by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion.

In 2025, our Compensation Committee assessed the Company’s achievement against financial performance metrics, and generally determined on a subjective basis that performance satisfied expectations for the year. In making its subjective determination of performance, our Compensation Committee took into account our overall

financial and operational performance for the year, including successfully navigating through the operating challenges presented by the continued slow recovery of the US economy after the COVID-19 pandemic as well as efforts to restructure the Company’s debt. Despite the extraordinary efforts from our named executive officers throughout 2025, our named executive officers were awarded below target annual bonuses for the year. The actual cash bonuses earned by our named executive officers for 2025 are as set forth in the 2025 Summary Compensation Table in the column entitled “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation.”

2025 Equity Awards

No equity or equity-based incentive awards were granted to our named executive officers in 2025, though each named executive officer held restricted stock units as December 31, 2025 as shown in the table entitled “2025 Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End” below.

We do not currently use stock options to compensate our directors, officers or employees.

Retirement Plans

We have a Section 401(k) Savings/Retirement Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) that covers eligible employees of the Company and any designated affiliate, including our named executive officers. The 401(k) Plan permits employees to defer up to 100% of their annual compensation, subject to certain limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The employees’ elective deferrals are immediately vested and non-forfeitable upon contribution to the 401(k) Plan. All employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan at any time after their date of hire.

2025 OUTSTANDING EQUITY AWARDS AT FISCAL YEAR-END

The following table summarizes equity awards outstanding as of December 31, 2025 for each of the named executive officers.

Name	Stock Awards — Number of Shares or Units of Stock That Have Not Vested (#)	Market Value of Shares or Units of Stock That Have Not Vested ($)(2)
Caroline Beasley	10,000	(1)	$ 50,100
Bruce G. Beasley	3,750	(1)	$ 18,788
Brian E. Beasley	8,500	(1)	$ 42,585

(1) The restricted stock units vest on each of June 30, 2026 and 2027, subject to the executive’s continued employment on the vesting date and accelerated vesting of a pro-rata portion of the restricted stock units in the event of the executive’s termination due to the executive’s death or disability.

(2) Market value was determined by multiplying the number of restricted stock units that have not vested by the closing stock price of $5.01 on December 31, 2025.

TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL PAYMENTS

Potential Termination Payments

Each of our named executive officers entered into an employment agreement with us, as described in more detail above under the section entitled “Employment Agreements.” The employment agreements provide that in the event of a termination of the named executive officer by us without “cause,” a resignation by the named executive officer for “good reason,” or termination of the named executive officer due to death or disability, the terminated executive (or, in the case of death, the executive’s estate or legal representative) will be entitled to receive (i) continued payment of the executive’s base salary and the amount payable by the executive for coverage under the Company’s employee benefit plans (including premiums for Medicare supplemental insurance for Bruce Beasley), plus an additional amount equal to the taxes payable by the executive as a result of such benefit plan payments through July 1, 2027, or for one year following termination, whichever is greater, (ii) a lump sum payment equal to $1,250,000 for Caroline Beasley, $600,000 for Bruce Beasley and for Brian Beasley, his annual base salary (computed in accordance with the terms of the employment agreement), or the highest annual bonus paid to the executive over the preceding three-year period, whichever is greater, (iii) payment (without duplication to the amounts described in clause (i)) for benefit coverage pursuant to COBRA for the executive and the executive’s eligible dependents for up to 18 months following termination, and (iv) accelerated vesting of all of the executive’s outstanding equity awards; provided, that, if such termination occurs in connection with or within two years following a change in control, then, if higher than the amounts set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above, the executive will be entitled to receive, in lieu of such amounts set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above, a severance payment equal to two times the sum of the executive’s base salary (or $1,200,000 for Bruce Beasley) and the highest annual bonus paid to the executive during the preceding three-year period, which amount shall be paid in a lump sum to the extent a lump sum payment does not result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Under the employment agreements, “cause” means the executive’s (i) fraud, theft, embezzlement or proven gross negligence in connection with performing the executive’s duties and responsibilities, (ii) conviction of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude, or (iii) breach of any material provision of the employment agreement, including, without limitation, the restrictive covenants contained therein, subject to an opportunity for notice and cure. Under the employment agreements, “good reason” means the occurrence of any of the following events without the prior written consent of the executive, subject, in each case, to an opportunity for notice and cure, (i) the Company’s failure to make payment or provide benefits to the executive under the employment agreement, (ii) a material diminution in the executive’s base salary, payments for benefit coverage and payments for taxes payable by the executive as a result of such benefit payments, (iii) a material diminution in the executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities, (iv) a material diminution in the budget over which the executive retains authority, (v) a material change in the geographic location at which the executive must perform services under the employment agreement, (vi) any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach by the Company of the employment agreement, or (vii) a change in control.

Receipt of the severance payments and benefits under each employment agreement is subject to the executive (or the executive’s estate or legal representative) executing a release of claims in our favor.

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

In accordance with the SEC’s disclosure requirements regarding pay versus performance, this section presents the SEC-defined “Compensation Actually Paid,” or CAP. Also required by the SEC, this section compares CAP to various measures used to gauge our performance. CAP is a supplemental measure to be viewed alongside performance measures as an addition to the philosophy and strategy of compensation-setting discussed elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, not in replacement.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS

AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

The following table sets forth certain information regarding beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of May 26, 2026 by:

• Each person who is known by the Company to own beneficially more than 5% of our Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock;

• Each of the Company’s directors;

• Each of the named executive officers; and

• All executive officers and directors as a group.

Beneficial ownership of shares is determined under the rules of the SEC, and generally includes any shares over which a person exercises sole or shared voting or investment power. Each stockholder possesses sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares listed, unless otherwise noted. Shares of Class B Common Stock are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis at the option of the holder at any time and are all deemed outstanding for calculating the percentage of outstanding shares of the person holding those shares of Class B Common Stock but are not deemed outstanding for calculating the percentage of any other person. Shares of Class A Common Stock subject to options currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of May 26, 2026 are deemed outstanding for calculating the percentage of outstanding shares of the person holding those options but are not deemed outstanding for calculating the percentage of any other person. Restricted shares of Class A Common Stock that are currently vested or that will be vested within 60 days (but no other shares of restricted common stock) are deemed outstanding for calculating the percentage of outstanding shares of the person holding those shares of restricted stock. All restricted shares of Class A Common Stock currently outstanding, whether or not vested, are deemed outstanding for calculating the aggregate number of shares outstanding. The address of each beneficial owner, unless stated otherwise, is c/o Beasley Broadcast Group, 3033 Riviera Drive, Suite 200, Naples, Florida 34103.

(1) For the purpose of calculating the percentage of Class A Common Stock held by each stockholder, the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding does not include the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock.

Michael J. Fiorile, Chair

Peter A. Bordes, Jr.

The material in this report is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” with the SEC for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall the material in this section be deemed to be “soliciting material” or incorporated by reference in any registration statement or other document filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Related Party Transactions

Review and Approval of Related Party Transactions. In 2007, the Board of Directors adopted the Company’s Related Party Transaction Policy (the “Policy”). The written Policy applies to any transaction, or series of transactions in which the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates is or will be a participant, the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $100,000 in any calendar year, and in which any related party has or will have a direct or indirect interest. A related party for purposes of the policy includes:

• any Company executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director;

• an owner of 5% or more of Company stock; and

• any immediate family member of any person listed above.

Under the Policy, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews the facts relating to all related party transactions and either approves or disapproves the Company’s entry into the transaction. If advance Audit Committee approval of a transaction is not feasible, then the Audit Committee will consider the transaction and, if it determines the transaction to be appropriate, will ratify the transaction at the Committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting.

As adopted, the Policy has standing pre-approvals for transactions that meet specific criteria or are not considered related person transactions by the SEC. Pre-approved transactions include:

• any transaction with another company where the related party’s only relationship with such other company is as an employee (other than an executive officer), director or beneficial owner of less than 10% of that other company’s shares;

• any charitable contribution, grant or endowment by the Company to a charitable organization, foundation or university at which a related party’s only relationship is as an employee (other than an executive officer) or a director, if the aggregate amount involved does not exceed the lesser of $100,000, or two percent of the charitable organization’s total annual receipts;

• any transaction where the related party’s interest arises solely from the ownership of the Company’s Common Stock and all holders of the Company’s common stock received the same benefit on a pro rata basis ( e . g ., dividends); and

• any transaction involving a related party where the rates or charges involved are determined by competitive bids.

During 2024 and 2025, the Company engaged in several transactions in which our executive officers and other members of the Beasley family were participants. These transactions are described below. While the Policy had not been adopted at the time certain of these transactions and arrangements were entered into or commenced, each has been subsequently ratified by the Audit Committee pursuant to the Policy.
