INTRODUCTION

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of Taitron Components Incorporated, a California corporation (the “Company”), for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders (“Annual Meeting”), to be held on Thursday, May 27, 2021,26, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific time, at our corporate headquarters, located at 28040 West Harrison Parkway, Valencia, CA 91355. Accompanying this Proxy Statement is the Board of Directors’ Proxy for the Annual Meeting, which you may use to indicate your vote as to the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

The expense of this solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. Solicitations will be made only by use of the mail except that, if deemed desirable, officers and regular employees of the Company may solicit proxies by telephone, electronic mail or personal calls. Brokerage houses, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries will be requested to forward the proxy soliciting material to the beneficial owners of the stock held of record by those persons and the Company will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses incurred in this regard.

The purpose of the meeting and the matters to be acted upon are set forth in the attached Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board of Directors knows of no other business that may be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. All proxies which are properly completed, signed and returned to the Company prior to the Annual Meeting and which have not been revoked will be voted in favor of the proposals described in this Proxy Statement unless otherwise directed. A shareholder of record may revoke his or her proxy at any time before it is voted either by filing with the Secretary of the Company, at its principal executive offices, a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the Annual Meeting and expressing a desire to vote his or her shares in person. If you are the beneficial owner of your shares, you must contact the broker or other nominee holding your shares and follow their instructions to change your vote or revoke your proxy. If any other business properly comes before the meeting, votes will be cast pursuant to those proxies in respect of any other business in accordance with the judgment of the persons acting under those proxies.

The Company’s principal executive offices are located at 28040 West Harrison Parkway, Valencia, CA 91355. It is anticipated that the mailing to shareholders of this Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy will commence on or about May 3, 2021.2, 2022.

OUTSTANDING SECURITIES AND VOTING RIGHTS

The close of business on April 23, 2021,22, 2022, has been fixed as the record date (“Record Date”) for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice and to vote at the Annual Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof. As of the Record Date, the Company had outstanding 5,062,2355,113,568 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, (the “Class A Common Stock”), and 762,612 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock,” and together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”). The Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock are the only outstanding voting securities of the Company. As of the Record Date, the Company had 14 holders of record of the Class A Common Stock. The Company believes there are approximately 500 additional beneficial holders of its Class A Common Stock. There is one (1) holder of the Class B Common Stock.

A holder of Class A Common Stock is entitled to cast one (1) vote for each share held on the Record Date on all matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting. A holder of Class B Common Stock is entitled to cast ten (10) votes for each share held on the Record Date on all matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting.

A quorum, which is a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote as of the Record Date, must be present to hold the Annual Meeting. A quorum is calculated based on the number of shares represented by the shareholders attending in person and by their proxy holders. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in the determination of shares present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum.

An abstention represents a stockholder’s affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Under California law, abstentions are considered present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As a result, abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum and will also count as votes against a proposal in cases where approval of the proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. However, because the outcome of Proposal No. 1 (election of directors) will be determined by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, abstentions will have no impact on the outcome of the proposal as long as a quorum exists.

A broker non-vote occurs when a broker or other nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker or other nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to such proposal and has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares. Broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting, but will not be counted for purposes of determining the number of votes cast. Therefore, a broker non-vote will make a quorum more readily attainable.

With respect to Proposal No. 1, you may vote (i) FOR all nominees, (ii) WITHHOLD your vote as to all nominees, or (iii) vote FOR all nominees except for those specific nominees from whom you WITHHOLD your vote. The five (5) nominees receiving the most FOR votes will be elected. If you WITHHOLD your vote as to all nominees, your vote will be treated as if you had ABSTAINED from voting on Proposal No. 1, and your abstention will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. With respect to Proposal No. 2, you may vote FOR, AGAINST or ABSTAIN. If you ABSTAIN from voting on this proposal, the abstention will have the same effect as a vote AGAINST the proposal. The approval of Proposal No. 2 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the Company’s shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

PROPOSAL 1 - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Proposal 1 is the election of five (5) members of the Board of Directors. In accordance with the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company, the Board of Directors consists of not less than three (3) nor more than nine (9) members, the exact number to be determined by the Board of Directors. At each annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company, directors are elected for a one-year term. The Board of Directors is currently set at five (5) members, and there currently are no vacancies. At the 20212022 Annual Meeting, each director will be elected for a one (1)-year term expiring at the 20222023 Annual Meeting.

Unless marked otherwise, proxies received will be voted FOR the election of each of the nominees named below. If any person is unable or unwilling to serve as a nominee for the office of director at the date of the Annual Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof, the proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee, designated by the present Board of Directors to fill the vacancy. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unwilling or unable to serve if elected a director.

Should any of the nominees fail to receive the vote required to be elected in accordance with the Company’s Bylaws, the term of his or her service as a director will end on the date that is the earlier of (i) 60 days after the date on which the voting results are determined pursuant to California law or (ii) the date on which the Board of Directors selects a person to fill the office held by that director, unless he or she has earlier resigned.

The following table sets forth the nominees the Board of Directors proposes to be electedfor election at the Annual Meeting, the year each such nominee was first elected a director and the current position(s) with the Company held by each nominee:

Code of Ethics. The Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Ethics for all officers, including its principal executive officer and its principal financial officer which is posted on our website, www.taitroncomponents.com, under the link “Investors”.

Board Leadership Structure. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines describe our policies concerning, among other things, the role of the Board of Directors and management, proper Board functions, independence, and committee matters. The positions of Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer are currently held by different persons, although we do not have a policy requiring that to be the case. Instead, our Board of Directors has the authority to choose its Chairman in any way it deems best for us at any given point in time. Accordingly, our Board of Directors reserves the right to vest the responsibilities of the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman in the same person or in two (2) different individuals depending on what it believes is in our best interest. At this time, our Board of Directors has determined that separation of these roles most appropriately suits us. Mr. Ku is uniquely qualified to serve as our Chairman given his leadership of our Board of Directors since inception in 1989 and his extensive international and domestic business experience. Further, our Board of Directors believes that this division of roles allows Mr.Wang to focus more of his efforts to achieving the goals and objectives of our strategic plan. Our Board of Directors believes that there is no single leadership structure that would be most effective in all circumstances and, therefore, retains the authority to modify our Board's structure to best address our circumstances as and when appropriate.

Role of Our Board of Directors in Risk Oversight. The Board of Directors, as a whole and at the committee level, has overall responsibility for overseeing our risks, including general oversight of our executive officers’ management of risks relevant to the Company. A fundamental part of risk oversight is not only understanding the material risks a company faces and the steps management is taking to manage those risks, but also understanding what level of risk is appropriate for the Company. The involvement of our Board of Directors in reviewing our strategic plan is an integral aspect of the Board’s assessment of management’s tolerance for risk and also its determination of what constitutes an appropriate level of risk for the Company.

Director Independence. The Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that each of the Company’s current non-employee directors and all current members of each of the Company’s Audit and Compensation Committees (Messrs. Chiang, Miller and Ms. Chung) are independent within the meaning of the director independence standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act. The Company has also determined that Ms. Pineda, who will serve on the Company’s Audit Committee if elected at the Annual Meeting, is independent within the meaning of the director independence standards of NASDAQ and the SEC, including Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act.

Annual Meeting Attendance. We encourage, but do not require, all incumbent directors and director nominees to attend our annual meetings of shareholders. At the 20202021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, only Mr. Wang was in attendance.

Director Meeting Attendance. During fiscalthe past year, 2020, the Board of Directors held one (1) meeting.

Committees of the Board of Directors and Meetings. The Board currently has, and appoints the members of, a standing Audit Committee and Compensation Committee. Each committee is comprised solely of non-employee Directors, reports regularly to the full Board and annually evaluates its performance. The members of the committees are identified in the following table:

Audit Committee – The Audit Committee generally has direct responsibility and oversight for our accounting policies and internal controls, financial reporting practices, and legal and regulatory compliance. More specifically, the Audit Committee has responsibility to review and discuss the annual audited financial statements and disclosures with management and the independent auditor; review the financial statements and disclosures provided in our quarterly and periodic reports with management and the independent auditor; and oversee the external audit coverage, including appointment and replacement of the independent auditor and pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services to be performed by the independent auditor.

All members of the Audit Committee satisfy the current independence standards promulgated by the SEC and NASDAQ, as such standards apply specifically to members of audit committees. The Board has determined that Mr. Miller is an “audit committee financial expert,” as the SEC has defined that term in Item 407 of Regulation S-K. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors, which is available online by accessing our website at www.taitroncomponents.comwww.taitroncomponents.com under "Investors", but does not constitute part of this Proxy Statement.

During fiscal year 2020,2021, our Audit Committee held one (1) meeting. In addition, the audit committee discussed the results of the annual audit with management and the independent registered public accounting firm prior to the filing of our annual financial statements. The audit committee received and reviewed the results of the quarterly reviews with management and the independent registered public accounting firm prior to the filing of our quarterly financial statements.

Compensation Committee – The Compensation Committee reviews, makes recommendations and approves the compensation level of executive officers and key employees based on an evaluation of their performance in light of our goals and objectives, including administration of our equity based compensation plan. The Compensation Committee does not operate under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors. Typically, our chief executive officer makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee, often attends committee meetings and is involved in the determination of compensation for the executive officers that report to him, except that he does not make recommendations as to his own compensation. The Compensation Committee then reviews the recommendations and other data and makes decisions as to total compensation for each executive officer other than the chief executive officer, as well as each individual compensation component. The Compensation Committee makes recommendations to the board regarding compensation for the chief executive officer. The independent members of the Board of Directors make the final decisions regarding executive compensation for our chief executive officer.

During fiscal year 2020,2021, our Compensation Committee held one (1) meeting.two (2) meetings.

Nominating Committee – We do not have a standing nominating committee. The Board of Directors does not believe that it is necessary for us to have a standing nominating committee since we have a relatively small Board of Directors and our independent directors will serve in the capacity of a nominating committee when necessary. All of our directors participate in the consideration of director nominees. However, consistent with applicable NASDAQ listing standards, each director nominee must be selected or recommended for the Board of Directors’ selection by a majority of the independent directors of the Board of Directors. In considering candidates for directorship, the Board of Directors considers the entirety of each candidate’s credentials and does not have any specific minimum qualifications that must be met in order to be recommended as a nominee. The Board of Directors does believe, however, that all Board members should have the highest character and integrity, a reputation for working constructively with others, sufficient time to devote to Board matters and no conflict of interest that would interfere with their performance as a director of a public corporation.

The Board of Directors may employ a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating nominees for director, including shareholder recommendations. Periodically, the Board of Directors assesses its size, the need for particular expertise on the Board of Directors and whether any vacancies are expected due to retirement or otherwise. If vacancies are anticipated or otherwise arise, the Board of Directors will consider various potential candidates for director who may come to the Board of Directors’ attention through current Board members, professional search firms or consultants, shareholders or other persons. The Board of Directors may hire and pay a fee to consultants or search firms to assist in the process of identifying and evaluating candidates. In the most recent fiscal year, no professional search firms or consultants were needed and, accordingly, no fees were paid in this regard to professional search firms or consultants. The Board of Directors does not evaluate candidates differently based on who made the recommendation for consideration.

Shareholder nominations for director. Shareholders who wish to nominate a director for election in our proxy statement at an annual shareholder meeting, must submit their recommendations at least 120 days before the date of the next scheduled annual meeting of shareholders. Shareholders may recommend candidates for consideration by the Board of Directors by writing to the Company’s Corporate Secretary at 28040 West Harrison Parkway, Valencia, California 91355, giving the candidate’s name, contact information, biographical data, and qualifications. A written statement from the candidate consenting to be named as a candidate and, if nominated and elected, to serve as a director should accompany any shareholder recommendation. There were no director candidates put forward by shareholders for consideration at the prior year Annual Meeting.

SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Shareholders may communicate with the Board of Directors by sending a letter to Board of Directors of Taitron Components Incorporated, c/o Office of the Corporate Secretary, 28040 West Harrison Parkway, Valencia, California 91355. All communications must contain a clear notation indicating that they are a “Shareholder — Board Communication” or “Shareholder — Director Communication” and must identify the author as a shareholder. The office of the Corporate Secretary will receive the correspondence and forward it to the Chairman of the Board or to any individual director or directors to whom the communication is directed, unless the communication is unduly hostile, threatening, illegal, does not reasonably relate to the Company or its business, or is similarly inappropriate. The office of the Corporate Secretary has authority to discard any inappropriate communications or to take other appropriate actions with respect to any inappropriate communications.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

Since 1995, the Company has had an Audit Committee composed entirely of independent directors. The members of the Audit Committee meet the independence and experience requirements of NASDAQ listing standards. The Audit Committee has adopted, and the Board of Directors approved, a charter outlining the practices it follows.

During the fiscal year 2020,2021, the Audit Committee held one (1) formal meeting with the senior members of the Company’s financial management team. During that meeting, management reviewed the audited financial statements in the Annual Report with the Audit Committee, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements. Additionally, the Audit Committee discussed written disclosures from the independent auditors’ discussing matters required by PCAOB Auditing Standard 1301, “Communications with Audit Committees” and confirmed the auditors’ independence with respect to the Company in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Rule 3526, “Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence”. The Audit Committee also has considered whether the independent auditors’ provision of non-audit services to the Company is compatible with the auditors’ independence. The Audit Committee has concluded that the independent auditors are independent from the Company and its management. The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their respective audit. In addition, the audit committee discussed the results of the annual audit with the independent registered public accounting firm prior to the filing of our financial statements for related periods and also received and reviewed the results of the quarterly reviews with management and the independent registered public accounting firm prior to the filing of our quarterly financial statements.

In performing all of these functions, the Audit Committee acts only in an oversight capacity. In its oversight role, the Audit Committee relies on the work and assurances of the Company’s management, which has the primary responsibility for financial statements and reports, and of the independent auditors, who, in their report, express an opinion on the conformity of the Company’s annual financial statements to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

In reliance on these reviews and discussions, and the report of the independent auditors, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, for filing with the SEC.

Craig Miller, Chairman

The information in this Audit Committee Report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material,” or to be “filed” with the SEC or to be subject to Regulation 14A or 14C as promulgated by the SEC, or to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference in future filings with the SEC except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates it by reference into a document filed under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee and Board of Directors appointed the firm of Ramirez Jimenez International CPAs (“RJI”) as its independent registered public accounting firm for 2021.2022. A representative of their firm is not expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. However, if present, representatives of RJI will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Fees Paid to Independent Registered Public Accounting Firms. The following table presents the aggregate fees billed for the indicated services performed for the last two (2) fiscal years ended December 31:

Audit Fees. Fees for audit services, as approved by the Audit Committee and provided by our principal accountants, including fees associated with the annual audit and quarterly interim reviews.

The Company paid fees totaling approximately $4,000 in each of the last two (2) fiscal years to an independent professional tax accountant, for services related to the preparation of our tax provision.

The Company paid fees totaling approximately $5,000 in each of the last two (2) fiscal years to an independent professional tax accountant, for the preparation of our federal and multi-state tax returns.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services. Consistent with policies of the SEC regarding auditor independence, the Audit Committee has responsibility for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent auditors. In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit Committee has established a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditors. Our Audit Committee will consider whether the provision of non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the independent auditor’s independence, and will approve such services, should such a situation arise.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

During the year ended December 31, 2020,2021, the Company purchased electronic component products of approximately $61,000$198,000 from Princeton Technology Corporation (“PTC”), a company controlled by Mr. Chiang, a director of the Company. All of these purchases were for products carried by the Company in inventory and the Company considers these purchases to be in the normal course of business and negotiated on an arm’s length basis. The Company has entered into a distributor agreement with PTC, and accordingly, the Company expects to continue purchasing from PTC in the future.

REVIEW, APPROVAL OR RATIFICATION OF TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS

The Company’s Board of Directors has adopted a related person transactions policy. The Audit Committee reviews transactions that may be “related-person transactions,” which are transactions between the Company and related persons in which the aggregate amount involved exceeds or may be expected to exceed $120,000 and in which a related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. For purposes of the policy, a related person is a director, executive officer, nominee for director, or a greater than 5% beneficial owner of the Company’s common stock, in each case, since the beginning of the last fiscal year, and their immediate family members.
