This Schedule 13D/A filing, dated May 7, 2026, reports that 22NW Fund, LP and its affiliates have completely exited their position in Farmer Brothers Co (FARM).

On May 5, 2026, Merger Sub merged with and into Farmer Brothers Co, which now continues as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Royal Cup, Inc. Under the terms of the merger, each share of common stock was automatically canceled and converted into the right to receive $1.29 in cash. Consequently, the reporting persons, including Aron R.
