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

On June 15, 2026, Helios Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). At the Annual Meeting, the shareholders of the Company, upon recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), approved the amendment and restatement of the Helios Technologies, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”).

The amendment and restatement of the 2023 Plan modifies the terms of the 2023 Plan to increase the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”) available for awards thereunder by 1,000,000 shares. The Board approved the Amendment upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board, after consideration of its alignment with the Company’s compensation philosophy and long-term incentive objectives. Other than such share increase, the amended and restated 2023 Plan does not make any other material changes to the 2023 Plan.

The foregoing description of the amended and restated 2023 Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the amended and restated 2023 Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
