US Energy Corp Accepts Resignation of Director and Reports Annual Meeting Results

CASPER, Wyoming — US Energy Corp reported the resignation of a board member and detailed the voting outcomes from its annual shareholder meeting held on May 6, 2026.

The company filed an 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 8, 2026, that disclosed both an Item 5.02 departure of a director or principal officer and an Item 5.07 submission of matters to a vote of security holders. The filing identifies one director who resigned and lists the specific proposals voted on by shareholders.

Scope of the changes is limited to the company's eight-person board and its auditor relationship. One seat turned over while the remaining directors stood for re-election. Shareholders also ratified the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm that audits the company's consolidated financial statements.

The operational delta is immediate. The named director's resignation took effect on the date it was tendered, prior to the annual meeting. The newly elected directors and ratified auditor assumed their roles following certification of the vote on May 6.

Prior to the meeting the board operated with its previous composition; afterward the board reflects the accepted resignation and the re-elected members.

Downstream consequences include the obligation to update any Form 10-K or proxy statement disclosures that reference board membership. The company must also ensure continued compliance with Nasdaq or NYSE independence and committee requirements now that board composition has changed.

A separate Form 8-K or amendment may be required if the departing director provided any written resignation letter citing a specific disagreement that must be disclosed under Item 5.02. The ratified auditor remains engaged for the current fiscal year without need for a new engagement letter at this time.

This marks the first board-level change disclosed by US Energy Corp in 2026. The company last filed its annual proxy statement in April 2026 outlining the nominees and auditor ratification proposal that received majority support at the meeting. The 8-K constitutes the official record of both the resignation and the final vote tallies.
