A 30% shareholder alleges that Barnwell Industries' board has spent nearly all of the company's roughly $2 million cash over six months to resist the shareholder's efforts to nominate directors, accelerating cash losses and destroying shareholder value. The filing accuses the board of selling a Texas investment at an approximately $3 million loss to raise cash, amending promissory notes tied to a water-sale payment and delaying collections, and pursuing defensive measures—including a second poison pill and legal challenges—that the shareholder says entrench management rather than protect the business.
The shareholder states willingness to discuss settlements and potential financings but says the board refused constructive solutions and blocked qualified director candidates, while the company has publicly noted it is "investigating potential sources of funding, including debt financing, issuance of stock." The filing also alleges the company’s pension plan purchased about 520,000 shares of BRN stock.
