Rule 14a-8 regulatory
"To be included in the proxy materials for the FY26 Annual Meeting, stockholder proposals submitted in compliance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act"
Rule 14a-8 is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regulation that lets eligible shareholders put proposals on a public company’s proxy ballot for an annual meeting, provided they meet basic ownership and filing requirements. It matters to investors because it creates a formal way to raise governance or strategic issues and force a company-wide vote—like getting an item onto the agenda of a neighborhood association meeting once you’ve lived there long enough—so shareholders can push for change or influence management decisions.
Second Amended and Restated Bylaws regulatory
"In accordance with the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”), if a stockholder wishes to present a proposal"
universal proxy rules regulatory
"stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees at the FY26 Annual Meeting must comply with the “universal proxy rules,” Rule 14a-19"
Universal proxy rules require that when shareholders vote to elect directors in a contested election, the proxy card mailed to investors can include candidates nominated by both the company and dissident shareholders, letting investors mix and match their choices on a single ballot. This matters to investors because it makes their vote more flexible and easier to use, like replacing separate lists with one common ballot, which can influence who controls the board and the company’s future direction.
Rule 14a-19 regulatory
"including providing written notice on a timely basis no later than August 14, 2026, which is 60 days prior the date of the FY26 Annual Meeting"
Rule 14a-19 is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rule that governs how independent proxy advisory firms produce and distribute voting recommendations for shareholders. It requires these advisers to provide companies with notice of their recommendations and a chance to respond, and to disclose certain conflicts; think of it as a referee ensuring both sides see a game plan before fans cast votes. Investors care because proxy advisers influence voting outcomes and corporate governance, so the rule affects transparency, potential bias, and the reliability of guidance that many investors rely on when voting shares.
record date financial
"The record date, time and location of the FY26 Annual Meeting will be as set forth in the Company’s proxy statement"
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

As previously disclosed in the proxy statement of U.S. Gold Corp. (the “Company”) for its annual meeting of stockholders held on April 27, 2026 (the “April 2026 Annual Meeting”), the Company expected to return to a more normalized schedule for its next annual meeting of stockholders to be held in fiscal year 2026 and anticipated that the date of that meeting would change by more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the April 2026 Annual Meeting. The proxy statement also stated that, if the deadlines for stockholder proposals and director nominations changed, the Company would announce the new dates in a Form 10-Q or Form 8-K.

 

On May 22, 2026, the board of directors of the Company established October 13, 2026 as the date of the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in fiscal year 2026 (the “FY26 Annual Meeting”). As the date of the FY26 Annual Meeting has advanced by more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the April 2026 Annual Meeting, in accordance with Rule 14a-5(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company is informing its stockholders of such change. The record date, time and location of the FY26 Annual Meeting will be as set forth in the Company’s proxy statement for the FY26 Annual Meeting (the “Proxy Statement”).

 

To be included in the proxy materials for the FY26 Annual Meeting, stockholder proposals submitted in compliance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act (“Rule 14a-8”) must be received in writing at the following address, U.S. Gold Corp., 1910 East Idaho Street, Suite 102-Box 604, Elko, Nevada 89801, Attention: Secretary, on or before July 27, 2026, which the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin printing and mailing its proxy materials for the FY26 Annual Meeting.

 

In accordance with the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”), if a stockholder wishes to present a proposal before the FY26 Annual Meeting but does not wish to have a proposal considered for inclusion in the Proxy Statement and proxy in accordance with Rule 14a-8 or to nominate someone for election as a director, the notice of stockholder proposals or director nominations for the FY26 Annual Meeting must be received not earlier than close of business on June 15, 2026 and not later than close of business on July 15, 2026.

 

In addition, if applicable, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees at the FY26 Annual Meeting must comply with the “universal proxy rules,” Rule 14a-19 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as required by and in addition to the Bylaws, including providing written notice on a timely basis no later than August 14, 2026, which is 60 days prior the date of the FY26 Annual Meeting, and providing certain information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act (including a statement that such stockholder intends to solicit the holders of shares representing at least 67% of the voting power of the Company’s shares entitled to vote on the election of directors in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees) to the Company.

 

All proposals, nominations, and/or notices must be delivered to the Company in compliance with all applicable SEC rules and regulations and the Bylaws.
