Yellow Cake plc ("Yellow Cake" or the "Company")

Review of Long-term Incentive Plan

 

Yellow Cake, a specialist company operating in the uranium sector holding physical uranium ("U3O8") for the long term, held its Annual General Meeting on 6 September 2023 ("AGM").

At the time of the AGM announcement, the Company noted that Investor Shareholder Services ("ISS"), a proxy advisory firm, raised concerns regarding the conditions of vesting of the Company's long-term incentive options. While the related resolution was passed by a majority of shareholders, the Company undertook to consult with those shareholders who voted against this resolution to better understand their specific concerns. The Company continues to engage with the relevant shareholders and will provide an update on this in due course in line with the UK Corporate Governance Code.

ABOUT YELLOW CAKE

Yellow Cake is a London-quoted company, headquartered in Jersey, which offers exposure to the uranium spot price. This is achieved through its strategy of buying and holding physical triuranium octoxide ("U3O8"). It may also seek to add value through other uranium related activities. Yellow Cake seeks to generate returns for shareholders through the appreciation of the value of its holding of U3O8 and its other uranium related activities in a rising uranium price environment. The business is differentiated from its peers by its ten-year Framework Agreement for the supply of U3O8 with Kazatomprom, the world's largest uranium producer. Yellow Cake currently holds 20.16 million pounds of U3O8, all of which is held in storage in Canada and France.
