Activist investor Doug Bergeron won control of Ethan Allen's board by securing three of five seats, ousting longtime CEO Farooq Kathwari and director Cynthia Ekberg Tsai. Bergeron launched a proxy fight citing poor company performance and undisclosed past allegations against Tsai involving misuse of funds at a former biopharma company.
