Item 11. Executive Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Oversight of Executive Compensation Program
Our Board has established a Compensation Committee that operates under a written charter approved by our Board. Our Compensation Committee is comprised of Vincent Della Volpe, David Kong and Gloria Ballesta. Mr. Della Volpe is the Chairperson of our Compensation Committee. All of the members of our Compensation Committee meet the compensation committee independence standards of the NYSE American. Our Board has determined that none of our Compensation Committee members have any material business relationships with us. The independence of the Compensation Committee members is re-assessed regularly by the Company.
Our Compensation Committee of our Board is responsible for overseeing our executive and director compensation.
The responsibilities of our Compensation Committee, as stated in its charter, include the following:
| ● | review and approve our compensation guidelines and structure; |
| ● | review and approve on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives with respect to compensation for the CEO and our other executive officers; |
| ● | evaluate on an annual basis each of our executive officer’s individual performance in light of the goals and objectives referred to above and, based upon such evaluations, determine and recommend for approval by the Board each executive officer’s annual compensation, including base compensation, bonus, incentive and equity compensation; and |
| ● | periodically review and make recommendations to our Board regarding the compensation of non-executive directors. |
Our Compensation Committee is responsible for developing the executive compensation philosophy and reviewing and recommending to our Board for approval all compensation policies and compensation programs for our executive team.
Independent Compensation Advisor
Our Compensation Committee retains on an annual basis an independent compensation advisor to provide advice on the structure and levels of compensation for our executive officers and directors and to undertake a comprehensive review of our incentive plans. In Fiscal 2026, our Compensation Committee retained Global Governance Advisors (“GGA”) to provide independent compensation advice to our Compensation Committee and to our Board. GGA is an internationally recognized, independent advisory firm that provides counsel to boards of directors on matters relating to executive compensation and governance and has significant experience in the mining sector. GGA is retained to continually review the compensation levels for our executive officers and directors and short- and long-term incentive plans, and to evaluate and make recommendations based on competitive market trends on our overall executive and director compensation philosophy, objectives and approach.
GGA’s services in Fiscal 2026 included:
| ● | compensation philosophy validation; |
| ● | peer group review; |
| ● | executive compensation review and recommendations for our CEO, Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President and Senior Vice President, U.S. Operations; |
| ● | review and design of our annual non-equity incentive plan; |
| ● | review and design of our equity incentive plan, including performance criteria and vesting conditions; |
| ● | non-executive director compensation review; and |
| ● | review of our compensation discussion and analysis included herein. |
In Fiscal 2026, with the recommendations put forth by GGA (the “GGA Recommendations”), our Compensation Committee maintained the following general principles in determining our executive and non-executive director total compensation plans.
We recognize that people are our primary asset and our principal source of establishing a competitive advantage. In order to recruit, motivate and retain the most qualified individuals as senior executive officers, we strive to maintain an executive compensation program that is competitive in the mining industry, which is a competitive, global labor market.
Our Compensation Committee’s objective is to establish a compensation program that is designed to align with industry trends and attract and retain the best available talent while efficiently utilizing available resources, while also aligning management’s compensation with the long-term interests of our stockholders. These objectives are achieved primarily through base compensation, short-term non-equity incentive compensation and long-term equity compensation designed to be competitive with comparable companies. In determining executive management’s compensation, our Compensation Committee also takes into consideration our performance and financial condition.
In order to accomplish our goals and to ensure that our executive compensation program is consistent with our direction and business strategy, the compensation program for our senior executive officers is based on the following objectives:
| ● | to attract, motivate, retain and reward a knowledgeable and driven management team and to encourage them to attain and exceed performance expectations within a calculated risk framework; and |
| ● | to reward each executive based on individual and corporate performance and to incentivize such executives to drive our current growth and sustainability objectives. |
The following key principles guide our overall compensation philosophy:
| ● | compensation is designed to align executives to the critical business issues facing us; |
| ● | compensation should be fair and reasonable to stockholders and be set with reference to similar positions of comparable companies; |
| ● | a substantial portion of total compensation is at risk and linked to individual efforts as well as divisional and corporate performance. This ensures the link between executive pay and business performance; |
| ● | an appropriate portion of total compensation should be equity-based, aligning the interests of executives with our stockholders; and |
| ● | compensation should be transparent to our Board, executives and stockholders. |
Benchmarking Compensation and Peer Groups
In Fiscal 2026, our Compensation Committee commissioned a Peer Group review from GGA as part of a competitive compensation market review of executive and director compensation in order to stay abreast of changes in the external market and to ensure that we continued to benchmark compensation with appropriate market comparators. In addition to external market trends, our Compensation Committee considered the complexity of our operations and the range of size of several of the appropriate comparable companies and, with the GGA Recommendations provided to them, revised our Peer Group from the prior fiscal year to address changes in the external market and to better reflect our business. Our Peer Group used to benchmark our executive and director compensation program for Fiscal 2026 remained relatively consistent with the prior fiscal year’s peer group and included uranium and precious metals mining companies and consumable fuel companies publicly traded on major North American exchanges that were of similar size to us, primarily based on market capitalization, with greater emphasis on revenue and total assets. Our Peer Group was used by the Compensation Committee to establish the compensation levels for our executive officers and our directors.
In Fiscal 2026, with the GGA Recommendations, our compensation philosophy used the median of our Peer Group as the primary reference point for our executive officers’ compensation, while retaining the discretion to position individual compensation above or below the median to reflect factors such as an individual’s experience, tenure, scope of responsibilities, sustained performance and retention considerations. At the time of our Peer Group review, we were positioned at the 63 rd percentile on a market capitalization basis, and at the 18 thand 17 th percentile on a total assets and last twelve months total revenue basis, respectively, compared with our Peer Group.
In Fiscal 2026, the following companies were removed from or added to our Peer Group:
| Removed | Added |
|---|---|
| Centrus Energy Corp. | Core Natural Resources, Inc. |
| Energy Fuels Inc. | Matador Resources Company |
| NGEx Minerals Ltd. | MP Materials Corp. |
| Vital Energy, Inc. | Murphy Oil Corporation |
| USA Rare Earth, Inc. | |
| X-Energy, Inc. |
The peers removed from our prior fiscal year’s peer group were linked to changes in the external market or reflected the increased scale and complexity of our operations. The peers added to our prior fiscal year’s peer group were approved on the merit of industry/sector relevance where we are directly competing for talent, operations and size. Overall, adjustments made for our Peer Group were completed to address our operational growth. When examining peer alternatives, a balanced approach that examined other uranium mining and consumable fuels company peer groups was used to ensure that our Peer Group aligned within market norms.
In Fiscal 2026, our Peer Group was comprised of the following companies:
| Peer Group | ||
|---|---|---|
| Cameco Corporation | Magnolia Oil & Gas Corporation | Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. |
| Comstock Resources, Inc. | Matador Resources Company | NuScale Power Corporation |
| Core Natural Resources, Inc. | MP Materials Corp. | Oklo Inc. |
| Denison Mines Corp. | Murphy Oil Corporation | USA Rare Earth, Inc. |
| Gulfport Energy Corporation | NexGen Energy Ltd. | X-Energy, Inc. |
Named Executive Officers
Our named executive officers (collectively, the “Named Executive Officers” or “NEOs”) for Fiscal 2026 were:
| ● | Amir Adnani, President and CEO; |
| ● | Josephine Man, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary; |
| ● | Scott Melbye, Executive Vice President; and |
| ● | Brent Berg, Senior Vice President, U.S. Operations. |
Compensation Elements and Rationale
Our executive compensation program consists of base compensation, short-term non-equity incentive compensation and long-term incentive equity compensation.
Base Compensation
Base compensation is intended to reflect the scope of our NEOs’ responsibilities, performance, skills and experience as compared with relevant and comparable companies within our industry and the marketplace where we compete for talent. Base compensation is a fixed component of the compensation program and is used as the base to determine elements of incentive compensation and benefits.
The base compensation paid to our NEOs is more particularly described below under “Executive Services Agreements”.
Short-Term Incentive Awards
Our short-term incentive plan (the “STIP”) is a variable component of compensation and has the objective of motivating our executive officers to achieve corporate objectives over a one-year period and to provide a means to reward the achievement of corporate milestones and fulfillment of our annual business plan. Our STIP provides an opportunity for an annual cash payout based on performance relative to the achievement of corporate performance and individual goals and metrics. Our STIP has a maximum payout opportunity, which is 200% of each executive officer’s target STIP.
Our Compensation Committee establishes STIP performance goals, metrics, weightings and targets in the first quarter of each fiscal year. Each of our executive officers has a target STIP set as a percentage of their base compensation (each, a “Target Award”), with payouts based on a performance multiplier dependent on our corporate and individual performance. The performance multiplier and payouts achieved can range between 0% and 200% of each Target Award. No payout is awarded if our Compensation Committee deems that performance goals were not achieved. To determine Target Awards our Compensation Committee considers the breadth, scope and complexity of each executive officer’s role, internal equity and whether the executive officer’s incentive compensation is competitive relative to similarly situated executives at companies in our Peer Group.
The following sets forth our Fiscal 2026 base compensation and the formula for the payment of STIP awards.
The following sets forth the Target Awards expressed as a percentage of base compensation along with the corresponding corporate and individual performance weightings for our NEOs for Fiscal 2026.

| Brent BergSenior Vice President, U.S. Operations | $342,000 | 50% | $171,000 | 65% | 35% |
Performance Scorecard
Our Compensation Committee establishes a performance scorecard in the first quarter of each fiscal year that sets out performance goals and metrics to guide and motivate the executives to execute on our strategy. At the end of each fiscal year, our Compensation Committee evaluates actual performance relative to the performance goals and metrics and recommends to our Board the payment of STIP awards.
In the first quarter of Fiscal 2026, our Compensation Committee selected performance goals and metrics within a performance scorecard. At the end of Fiscal 2026, our Compensation Committee evaluated performance achieved relative to our performance goals and metrics. The corporate goals are viewed as critical to adding value to stockholders and cover a mix of operational, balance sheet, health and safety and business development criteria. The key performance indicators are provided in the balanced scorecard below. Each executive officer was also evaluated on a set of individual performance objectives tied to their unique role, responsibilities and time commitment.
The following sets forth the performance scorecard for Fiscal 2026.
| Weight · Performance Levels | ||||

Secondary Performance and Discretionary Considerations
To address sustainability related objectives, under the STIP, the corporate scorecard can be reduced by up to 10% of the overall corporate multiplier based on an assessment of performance in connection with sustainability goals and objectives. This sustainability-related performance consideration does not act to increase the multiplier. For Fiscal 2026, our Sustainability Committee and Compensation Committee monitored overall satisfaction on the results of the following areas: in Wyoming and Texas - enhancing reclamation efforts for exploration drilling by implementing sediment control, soil recontouring and revegetation; in Wyoming - optimizing 11(e)2 byproduct management by using a bailer compactor, reducing waste volume and fuel consumption for shipments and continuing reclamation in Mine Unit 2 to meet expectations of stakeholders, including regulatory agencies and landowners; and at our Roughrider Project - continuing to advance environmental baseline studies.
In addition, after the formulaic scorecard results are determined, the Compensation Committee may, in its discretion, increase or decrease each executive’s STIP award by up to a maximum of 20% based on its holistic assessment of overall company performance, including financial, operational, safety, environmental, sustainability and governance, and other strategic milestones, and the executive’s individual performance. Any upward adjustment is subject to the plan’s maximum payout of 200% of target.
Performance Goals and Metrics
Our Compensation Committee selected the following performance goals and metrics within our performance scorecard on the belief that these performance goals and metrics were aligned with our corporate strategy and could be impacted by our executive officers. In Fiscal 2026, the payout opportunities for threshold, target and breakthrough performance levels were set at 50%, 100% and 200% of each Target Award, respectively, with interpolation between performance levels.
**Operational Objectives:**Our Compensation Committee selected this metric based on the belief that achieving operational objectives will advance our ability to scale production and support additional extraction capacity. This metric consisted of the following operational objectives: (i) at Christensen Ranch and Irigaray, construct header houses in wellfields 10-ext., 11 and 12 and refurbish the Irigaray CPP to support 24/7, two-shift operations; (ii) at Burke Hollow, complete construction and commence operations; (iii) at Sweetwater, advance permitting and licensing activities with the BLM and WDEQ, complete an analysis of mill refurbishment and the design of an ion exchange circuit, and advance exploration drilling in support of S-K 1300 resource reporting; and (iv) at Roughrider, complete delineation drilling required to support a pre-feasibility study. The target level of performance required us to achieve any three of four operational objectives, the threshold level of performance required us to achieve any two of four operational objectives and the breakthrough level of performance required us to achieve all four operational objectives. As of July 31, 2026, we had completed three of the four operational objectives and substantial progress was achieved on the fourth operational objective, resulting in performance at 150%. Work continues to assess the refurbishment requirements for the Sweetwater Mill for both conventional and ISR operations.
Balance Sheet: Our Compensation Committee selected this metric based on the belief that strengthening our balance sheet with at least $75 million of liquid assets comprised of cash and the fair value of physical uranium and equity holdings is important to support our growth initiatives. $100 million of liquid assets represented the target level of performance, $75 million of liquid assets represented the threshold level of performance and $150 million of liquid assets represented the breakthrough level of performance. As of July 31, 2026, we had cash, equities and inventory (excluding 368,597 pounds of precipitated uranium and dried and drummed uranium concentrate at our Irigaray CPP and Hobson CPP) of approximately $752.8 million (based on closing prices as of July 31, 2026), resulting in performance at 200%.
Total Recordable Injury and Illness Incidence Rate: The Compensation Committee selected this metric based on the belief that the Total Recordable Injury and Illness Incidence Rate (“IIR”) is critical to our overall approach to promoting high performing safe environments. Our Company’s IIR is calculated by multiplying the total number of recordable injuries and illnesses at our operations, as determined in accordance with the safety standards established by the OSHA by 200,000 and dividing that result by the total number of hours worked by all employees at our operations. In this formula, 200,000 represents the number of hours that would be worked by 100 employees working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year and provides the standard base for calculating incidence rates for a year pursuant to OSHA guidance. An IIR below 3.2 represented the target level of performance, an IIR below 4.8 represented the threshold level of performance and an IIR below 1.6, with no work-related fatalities, represented the breakthrough level of performance. For Fiscal 2026, we achieved an IIR of 3.45 and had no work-related fatalities among employees at our operations, resulting in performance at 87.5%.
Business Development: Our Compensation Committee selected this metric based on the belief that the successful launch of UR&C and completion of its initial funding would advance our strategic objective of building a vertically integrated uranium company spanning mining, processing and planned refining and conversion capabilities, while strengthening the domestic nuclear fuel supply chain. The launch of UR&C represents a significant long-term opportunity for us. No threshold or target award opportunities were established for this metric. The result was breakthrough performance at 200%.
Individual Performance: Our Compensation Committee made a subjective determination of individual performance for each executive officer to determine whether the executive officer earned an award for performance in Fiscal 2026. Individual performance goals are defined for each executive based on their core area of responsibility. The CEO’s individual objectives are set by the Compensation Committee, while the CEO’s direct reports are determined by the CEO and approved by our Compensation Committee. Individual objectives are defined as either qualitative, quantitative or both.
Review of Executive Officer Performance
In Fiscal 2026, the following milestones were attained as a result of the executive officers having met their performance goals:
| ● | as announced on August 5, 2025, our Sweetwater Mill in Wyoming was designated by the U.S. Government for fast-track permitting to add ISR capability; |
| ● | in September 2025, we announced the launch of UR&C, a wholly owned subsidiary, and progressed our strategy towards building a vertically integrated uranium company. More than 50 sites across America have undergone a siting review, including a comparative modeling process that includes conditional modeling, risk assessment and 20-year financial model resulting in a shortlist of three sites for detailed analysis and final selection; |
| ● | we completed construction at and commenced uranium extraction from our Burke Hollow Mine in Texas; |
| ● | we completed planned construction of header houses in wellfields 10-extension, 11 and 12 at our Christensen Ranch Mine in Wyoming and commenced uranium extraction from wellfield 11; |
| ● | we completed the upgrade of our Irigaray CPP, including refurbishment of our calciner to increase throughput of dried yellowcake; |
| ● | drying and packaging at our Irigaray CPP commenced with 24/7, two shift operations; |
| ● | we completed a 200-hole delineation drilling program at our Sweetwater Project in Wyoming; |
| ● | we completed a 240-hole delineation drilling program at our Ludeman Project in Wyoming; |
| ● | we completed a drilling program of 36,000 meters at our Roughrider Project in Saskatchewan, Canada, to support the planned pre-feasibility study; |
| ● | we generated revenue of $37.3 million from sales of 400,000 pounds of U3O8, at a weighted average price of $93.13 per pound from our Physical Uranium Program, generating a gross profit of $16.9 million; and |
| ● | as of July 31, 2026, we had $752.8 million in liquid assets(1). |
Note:
| (1) | As at July 31, 2026. Liquid assets consist of cash, equity securities and uranium inventories. Does not include inventory in-process or dried and drummed uranium concentrate at our Irigaray CPP or Hobson CPP. Market values for securities are based on applicable closing prices as at July 31, 2026 and for uranium inventories are based on the spot price quoted on UxC ConverDyn as of such date. |
Long-Term Incentive Program
Our long-term incentive program (the “LTIP”) provides for, among other awards, the granting of stock options, performance stock options (“PSOs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) to executive officers to both motivate executive performance and retention, as well as to align executive officer interests with those of our stockholders. In awarding long-term incentive awards, we compare our long-term incentive program to those of the Peer Group and evaluate such factors as the number of shares available for awards under our 2024 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2024 Stock Incentive Plan”) and the number of awards outstanding relative to the number of shares of our common stock outstanding.
Each LTIP grant is based on the level of the position held and overall market competitiveness. Our Compensation Committee takes into consideration previous grants when it considers new grants of equity awards. Our Compensation Committee administers the granting of equity awards in accordance with our 2024 Stock Incentive Plan.
In each of Fiscals 2023 and 2024 performance based long-term equity incentive plan awards were awarded to the executive officers in the form of PRSUs. The PRSUs are measured based on our three-year TSR relative to the Global X Uranium ETF. The PRSUs cliff vest and settle based on the achievement of the performance criteria at the end of 36 months. The number of PRSUs that may vest at the end of 36 months is contingent on the level of performance achieved and ranges from 0% to 200% of the PRSU target number of units. Regardless of our relative TSR performance versus the Global X Uranium ETF TSR, if our absolute TSR is negative between the grant date and the 36 th month share price, the maximum number of PRSUs that can vest is capped at 100%. In Fiscal 2025, the Compensation Committee requested that GGA complete a stress test and review of the Global X Uranium ETF and relative TSR methodology. Two areas were identified for potential change as a result of the findings of this review. The first finding was that as the uranium sector has evolved in the public markets, there are more benchmark indices and peers to evaluate performance against. Secondly, as we have grown, measuring TSR on a relative basis point methodology results in a volatile performance multiplier that does not necessarily reflect the stockholder experience. A TSR ranking methodology on the other hand provides more stability tied to the stockholder experience. As a result of this review, the Compensation Committee amended the Fiscals 2023 and 2024 PRSU grants based on this analysis as described in more detail below. The Compensation Committee adjusted the multiplier design to address potential volatility that could misalign payouts with stockholder returns and result in excessive rewards or penalties, which was a decision made based on the findings from the PRSU stress test. The PRSUs granted in Fiscal 2023 vested on July 31, 2026, and the PRSUs granted in Fiscal 2024 vest on July 31, 2027.
The following table summarizes the Fiscals 2023 and 2024 PRSU vesting schedules.

The following table summarizes the payouts earned by NEOs in Fiscal 2026 pursuant to PRSUs granted in Fiscal 2023. The TSR for our shares of common stock outperformed the Global X Uranium ETF by approximately 8,600 basis points for the applicable performance period from July 29, 2023 to July 31, 2026, exceeding the maximum performance threshold of 2,500 basis points. During such performance period, the absolute TSR was also positive. Accordingly, the PRSUs granted in Fiscal 2023 achieved payouts at 200% of target pursuant to the applicable performance period as summarized below.
| Name and Principal Position | Target Payout | Payout Earned | Payout |
|---|---|---|---|
| Amir Adnani, President and CEO | 210,897 PRSUs | 200% | 421,795 shares |

In Fiscal 2026, our Compensation Committee reviewed the market prevalence of long-term equity incentive plans within our Peer Group and determined that PRSUs and RSUs were the most appropriate form of long-term equity incentive to grant due to market practice. The LTIP awards awarded to our executive officers in Fiscal 2026 are more particularly described below in the “Grants of Plan Based Awards” table.
In Fiscal 2026, performance based long-term equity incentive plan awards were awarded to the executive officers in the form of PRSUs. The PRSUs accrue over 36 months but will not settle until the end of the 36-month period and are contingent on the level of performance achieved. Each vested PRSU represents the opportunity to receive a share of common stock or its cash equivalent at the discretion of our Compensation Committee. The PRSUs are measured based on our TSR relative to the TSR of the Performance Peer Group described below, the constituents of which were presented to our Compensation Committee by GGA for its determination. Our TSR will be ranked against the selected constituents. The PRSUs are evaluated using relative TSR over three annual periods and one 36-month period. The measurement periods are weighted as to 15% in each of years one, two and three and 55% over a 36-month period. The number of PRSUs that may accrue at the end of each annual period and at the end of the 36-month period is contingent on the level of performance achieved over each measurement period and ranges from 0% to 200% of the PRSU target number of weighted units.
The following table summarizes the Fiscal 2026 PRSU vesting schedule.

Our compensation policy for Mr. Berg is based on comparisons of other companies’ remunerations made to their Senior Vice Presidents and the value of Mr. Berg’s expertise.
Retirement, Resignation or Termination Plans
Our contracts for services with our NEOs have notice requirements which permit pay in lieu of notice.
Each of our executive services arrangements with Messrs. Melbye and Berg, Adnani Corp. and Ms. Man contemplates the case of termination due to various provisions whereby the NEOs will receive termination payments, as described below under “Executive Services Agreements”.
Compensation and Risk
As part of its oversight of our compensation program, our Compensation Committee considers whether our compensation policies and practices, taken as a whole, encourage excessive or inappropriate risk-taking by our executive officers and other employees. Based on this review, we do not believe that any risks arising from our compensation policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. We have designed our executive compensation program so that it does not incentivize risk outside of our risk appetite. Some of the key features that help us manage compensation risk are as follows:
| ● | appointed a Compensation Committee which is composed entirely of independent directors to oversee the executive compensation program; |
| ● | our Compensation Committee has retained an independent compensation advisor, GGA, to provide advice on the structure and levels of compensation for our executive officers and directors; |
| ● | our STIP has a cap on the total amount of payment any position may receive; |
| ● | the use of performance based long-term incentive compensation to encourage a focus on long-term corporate performance; |
| ● | disclosure of executive compensation to stakeholders; |
| ● | established a clawback policy applicable to all cash and equity incentive compensation; and |
| ● | adoption of say-on-pay. |
Clawback Policy
We adopted our Clawback Policy, with an effective date of November 20, 2023, in order to comply with Section 10D of the Exchange Act, Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act (“Rule 10D-1”) and Section 811 of the NYSE American Company Guide (collectively, the “Final Clawback Rules”). Our Board has designated the Compensation Committee of our Board as the administrator of the Clawback Policy.
Our Clawback Policy provides for the mandatory recovery of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation from our current and former executive officers, as defined in Rule 10D-1 (each, a “Covered Officer”), in the event that we are required to prepare an accounting restatement in accordance with the Final Clawback Rules. The recovery of such compensation applies regardless of whether a Covered Officer engaged in misconduct or otherwise caused or contributed to the requirement of an accounting restatement. Under the Clawback Policy, we may recoup from the Covered Officers erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation received within a lookback period of the three completed fiscal years preceding the date on which we are required to prepare an accounting restatement.
A copy of our Clawback Policy is included as Exhibit 97.1 to this Annual Report.
Timing of Stock Awards and Disclosure of Material Nonpublic Information
We donot follow a predetermined scheduled for granting stock-based compensation. Typically, our Board and our Compensation Committee consider granting stock-based compensation on an annual basis in the last quarter of each fiscal year or for new hires around the hire date and outside of the filing of our financial results. The granting of awards under our2024 Stock Incentive Plan is contingent on our performance.
Our Board and our Compensation Committee review and approve these awards. They ensure that material nonpublic information (“MNPI”) is taken into account when determining the timing and terms of the awards and, if MNPI is present, the awards will be deferred until such information has been publicly disclosed.
We donot time the disclosure of MNPI to influence the value of executive compensation. All material information is disclosed promptly in accordance with SEC rules and regulations and our internal policies.
Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy
We adopted an Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy (the “Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy”). Our Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy provides that, unless otherwise previously approved by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, none of our or our subsidiaries’ directors, officers or employees or, to the extent practicable, any other person (or their associates) in a special relationship (within the meaning of applicable securities laws) with us, may, at any time: (i) purchase financial instruments, including prepaid variable forward contracts, instruments for the short sale or purchase or sale of call or put options, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchangeable funds that are based on fluctuations of our debt or equity instruments and that are designed to or that may reasonably be expected to have the effect of hedging or offsetting a decrease in the market value of our securities; or (ii) purchase our securities on a margin or otherwise pledge our securities as collateral for a loan. Any violation of our Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy will be regarded as a serious offence. Our Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy is available on our website atwww.uraniumenergy.com.
Stock Ownership Guidelines
We adopted Stock Ownership Guidelines for our executive officers to further align the interests of our executive officers and stockholders (the “Stock Ownership Guidelines”). The Stock Ownership Guidelines provide that each executive officer should attain a specified level of ownership of shares of our common stock equal to a multiple of their base compensation within five years of the executive officer’s first appointment to their role. The stock ownership requirement is three times (3x) base compensation for our President and CEO and one times (1x) base compensation for our other executive officers. Unvested equity awards are not included in calculating compliance with the Stock Ownership Guidelines. As of the date of this Annual Report, each of our executive officers meet such guidelines. While there is no formal guideline for non-executive directors currently, each of the non-executive directors currently have meaningful ownership of shares of our common stock in an amount equal to at least three times their annual retainer, with average ownership among our non-executive directors equal to approximately 16 times their respective annual retainers.
Consideration of Most Recent Stockholder Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation
At our 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, we held an advisory vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. The proposal received strong support, with approximately 97.9% of votes cast in favor. We viewed this level of support as an endorsement of our executive compensation philosophy and performance-based structure. We believe this reflects the alignment of our pay outcomes and long-term stockholder value creation. As such, we did not implement any significant changes to our executive compensation program based on this advisory vote. Consistent with the preference expressed by our stockholders at our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, where an annual frequency was approved, we currently hold our say-on-pay advisory vote on an annual basis, and we expect to hold our next say-on-pay advisory vote at our 2027 annual meeting of stockholders. We expect to hold our next advisory vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes no later than our 2029 annual meeting of stockholders.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
No person who served as a member of our Compensation Committee during Fiscal 2026 was a current or former officer or employee of us or engaged in certain transactions with us required to be disclosed by regulations of the SEC. Additionally, during Fiscal 2026, there were no Compensation Committee “interlocks”, which generally means that none of our executive officers served: (i) as a member of a Compensation Committee (or other committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of another entity which had an executive officer serving as a member of our Compensation Committee; (ii) as a director of another entity which had an executive officer serving as a member of our Compensation Committee; or (iii) as a member of the Compensation Committee (or other committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of another entity which had an executive officer serving as a director on our Board of Directors.
Compensation Committee Report
The members of the Compensation Committee have reviewed and discussed the contents of the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with our management. Based on such review and discussions with management and our independent compensation consultant, and subject to the limitations on the role and responsibility of the Compensation Committee, the Compensation Committee recommended to our Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Annual Report.

Notes:
| (1) | These amounts represent fees paid by us to our Named Executive Officers during the year pursuant to various executive services agreements, between us and the Named Executive Officers, which are more particularly described below. |
| (2) | These amounts represent the aggregate grant date fair value of RSUs and PRSUs for the fiscal years noted. For Fiscal 2026, the grant date fair value of each RSU is $9.74 per share based on the closing price of our common stock as of the grant date of July 30, 2026 and the grant date fair value of each PRSU granted on July 30, 2026 is $3.37 per unit, which incorporates the potential to vest, depending on the performance, from 0% to 200% of the number of PRSUs. For Fiscal 2025, the grant date fair value of each RSU is $6.21 and $8.68 per share based on the most recent closing price of our common stock as of the grant dates of October 1, 2024 and July 31, 2025, respectively, and the grant date fair value of each PRSU granted on July 31, 2025 is $3.22 per unit, which incorporates the potential to vest, depending on the performance, from 0% to 200% of the number of PRSUs. For Fiscal 2024, the grant date fair value of each RSU is $5.49 per share based on the most recent closing price of our common stock as of the grant date of July 26, 2024, and the grant date fair value of each PRSU is $5.41 per unit, which incorporates the potential to vest, depending on the performance, from 0% to 200% of the number of PRSUs. The fair value of PRSUs is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model that uses the following assumptions: (i) expected volatility based on the historical price volatility of UEC and the designated peer group; (ii) expected risk-free interest rate based on the U.S. Treasury rates as of the grant date; and (iii) expected term. |
| (3) | These amounts represent cash awards under our STIP. The payments for the fiscal years noted were made after our year-end results were evaluated in August 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. |
| (4) | This compensation reflects all amounts paid, both directly and indirectly, through Adnani Corp. |
| (5) | These amounts represent discretionary bonuses paid in the fiscal year noted. |
| (6) | Ms. Man was appointed as our Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary effective October 1, 2024 (during Fiscal 2025). |
| (7) | These amounts represent the grant date fair value of the stock options which were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following assumptions were used to value the stock options granted on October 1, 2024: exercise price: $6.21; expected risk free interest rate: 3.48%; expected annual volatility: 79.75%; expected life in years: 5.0; expected annual dividend yield: $nil; and Black-Scholes value: $4.09. |
| (8) | The items comprising “All Other Compensation” for Fiscal 2026 are: for Mr. Melbye, $18,671 reflecting Company matching contributions to his 401(k) plan, and for Mr. Berg, $17,840 reflecting Company matching contributions to his 401(k) plan. |
| (9) | The amount reported for Messrs. Melbye and Berg in the “All Other Compensation” column for Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024 has been revised from $nil, as previously reported in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, filed on September 24, 2025 and September 27, 2024, respectively, and definitive proxy statements on Schedule 14 filed on June 10, 2026 and June 6, 2025, to $17,588 and $16,192 for Messrs. Melbye and Berg, respectively, for Fiscal 2025 and to $15,058 and $2,000 for Messrs. Melbye and Berg, respectively, for Fiscal 2024. The amount previously reported understated the Company’s matching contributions under the Company’s 401(k) plan due to an administrative error in compiling the data. The revised amounts reflect the matching contributions actually credited to Messrs. Melbye and Berg’s account for the 2025 and 2024 plan years. The “Total” column for Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024 has been revised accordingly. |
| (10) | This amount represents a one-time sign-on bonus paid to Mr. Berg. |

Pay Ratio
As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, and Item 402(u) of SEC Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees and the annual total compensation of Amir Adnani, our President and CEO (the “CEO Pay Ratio”). For Fiscal 2026, our last completed fiscal year:
| ● | the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees (other than our CEO) was $69,375; and |
| ● | the annual total compensation of our CEO, including incentive based compensation, as reported in the “Summary Compensation Table” above, was $9,283,450. |
Based on this information, for Fiscal 2026 the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees was approximately 134 to 1.
We believe our CEO Pay Ratio for Fiscal 2026 demonstrates our pay-for-performance philosophy. Our compensation program consists of both fixed and variable components and is designed to motivate all employees to produce superior short- and long-term corporate performance. A substantial portion of our CEO’s total compensation consists of variable, at-risk incentive compensation (i.e., annual bonus, RSUs and PRSUs) tied to individual and corporate performance, while the fixed portion of our CEO’s compensation is positioned near the 50 th percentile of his position per the Peer Group review conducted by GGA. Given our CEO’s level of responsibility, experience and potential, our Compensation Committee awards the CEO a mix of compensation with a higher variable component. As a result, a substantial percentage of our CEO’s total compensation is at risk every year, providing our CEO with greater incentive to increase stockholder value and improve corporate performance over the long term.
To identify the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees, we took the following steps:
| ● | we selected July 31, 2026 as the date upon which we would identify the median employee to allow sufficient time to identify the median employee given the global scope of our operations; |
| ● | we determined that, as of July 31, 2026, our employee population consisted of approximately 256 individuals, excluding our CEO, working for us and our consolidated subsidiaries, with approximately 79% of these individuals located in the United States, 14% in Canada and 8% in Paraguay. This population consisted of our full-time and part-time employees. We do not have temporary and seasonal employees; |
| ● | to identify the median employee from our employee population, we examined the annual base compensation and annual bonus target for Fiscal 2026 for all employees employed by us and our consolidated subsidiaries at the start of business on July 31, 2026. We believe that these pay elements are appropriate because it was impractical to gather actual data from multiple payroll systems utilized to pay our worldwide workforce, and the actual achievement of the variable portion of compensation can vary widely from year to year; |
| ● | we annualized compensation for any permanent employees that were only employed for part of Fiscal 2026; |
| ● | no adjustments were made for cost-of-living differences; |
| ● | an average exchange rate for the U.S. dollar for Fiscal 2026 was applied to compensation reported in a foreign currency; and |
| ● | all employees except for our CEO were ranked from lowest to highest with the median determined from this list. |
Once we identified our median employee, we combined all of the elements of such employee’s compensation for Fiscal 2026 in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K, resulting in annual total compensation of $68,387. With respect to the annual total compensation of our CEO, we used the amount reported in the “Total” column of our “Summary Compensation Table” included above.
The CEO Pay Ratio reported above is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules, based on our internal records and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. Accordingly, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the CEO Pay Ratio reported above, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may use different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.
