Western Uranium & Vanadium (CSE: WUC, OTCQX: WSTRF) held its annual general meeting on June 26 in Nucla, Colorado. Proxy votes represented 43% of outstanding common shares. Shareholders re-elected all four management-proposed directors: George Glasier, Bryan Murphy, Andrew Wilder and Michael Skutezky. MNP LLP was reappointed as auditor.
The 2023 Incentive Stock Option Plan was reapproved and must come before shareholders again within three years. The 2023 Shareholder Rights Plan was confirmed for another three-year term. That rights plan limits how large a stake any single buyer can accumulate without board approval. Western has kept that defense in place since the last uranium-price rally attracted unsolicited interest in small-cap producers. With spot uranium near $85 a pound and the U.S. Nuclear Fuel Security Program pushing domestic supply, the renewal extends the plan through 2029 and gives the board control over any large stake accumulation.
