U S GLOBAL INVESTORS INC

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2024, was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2024, due to the existence of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below (which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures).

The material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting that were disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, were also present as of March 31, 2024. Notwithstanding the material weaknesses, we believe that the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the date, and for the period, presented, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Other than as described above, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.** **
