Record Date, Voting Rights and Quorum

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on June 8, 2026 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting or at any adjournment thereof.

The holders of a majority of the 18,596,301 shares of Common Stock present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote, will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting.

Proxies marked “withheld” as to any director nominee or “abstain” or “against” as to a particular proposal and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum.

“Broker non-votes” are shares held by brokers or nominees which are present in person or represented by proxy, but which are not voted on a particular matter because instructions have not been received from the beneficial owner. The effect of proxies marked “withheld” as to any director nominee or “abstain” or “against” as to a particular proposal and broker non-votes on each Proposal is discussed under each respective Proposal.

Costs of Proxy Solicitation

The cost of preparing, assembling, and mailing the proxy materials and proxy card will be borne by the Company who is the party making this proxy solicitation.

The Company will reimburse such persons for their expenses in forwarding soliciting material.

PROPOSAL NO. 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors will consist of six directors who will be elected by the stockholders as of the Record Date at the 2026 Annual Meeting to hold office until the 2027 Annual Meeting and until their successors are elected. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders named in the proxy card will vote the proxies received by them for the six nominees of the Board of Directors named below.

Each nominee of the Board of Directors has indicated that he or she is willing and able to serve as director if elected. If any nominee of the Board of Directors becomes unavailable for any reason before the election, proxies will be voted for the election of such substitute nominee or nominees, if any, as shall be designated by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unavailable to serve.

Vote Required

The six nominees who receive the highest number of affirmative votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote, a quorum being present, shall be elected as directors. Only votes cast “FOR” a nominee will be counted, except that an executed proxy will be voted “FOR” all nominees in the absence of instructions to the contrary. Broker non-votes and proxies marked “withheld” as to one or more nominees will have no effect on the election since only votes “FOR” a nominee are counted in order to determine the six nominees with the highest number of votes.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE NOMINEES NAMED BELOW.

The following six nominees, all of whom are current directors of the Company, are the nominees of the Board of Directors.

Controlled Company Exemption

Directors J. Casey Crenshaw and Stacey B. Crenshaw control a majority of the voting power represented by our common stock. As a result, we are a “Controlled Company” within the meaning of the corporate governance rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”). Under these rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by an individual, a group or another company is a “Controlled Company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements. As a Controlled Company we are exempt from the NASDAQ governance requirements that (i) listed companies have compensation and nominating committees composed solely of independent directors, (ii) the compensation of executive officers be determined by a majority of the independent directors or a compensation committee composed solely of independent directors, (iii) director nominees are selected or recommended to the board of directors for selection, either by a majority of the independent directors, or a nominating committee composed solely of independent directors, and (iv) that the board of directors be composed of a majority of independent directors.

Director Independence

The Board of Directors discussed and reviewed whether each nominee is independent in accordance with the director independence standards established by NASDAQ. In determining independence, the Board reviews and seeks to determine whether directors have any material relationship with the Company, direct or indirect, which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Board reviews business, professional, charitable and familial relationships of the independent directors in determining independence. The Board determined that Peter C. Mitchell, Matthew W. Morris, and Edward L. Kuntz are independent.

Information about the Nominating Process

The Company’s Board of Directors undertakes the activities of identifying, evaluating and recommending nominees to serve as directors. The Board has not established a separate nominating committee because the Board believes that all directors should participate in the selection of director candidates.

Nomination of Director Candidates by Stockholders

The policy of the Board of Directors is to consider nominations of candidates for membership on the Board of Directors that are submitted by stockholders. Any such recommendations should include the nominee’s name and qualifications for Board membership and a consent signed by such candidate to serve as a director if elected and should be directed to Andrew L. Puhala, Corporate Secretary, Stabilis Solutions, Inc., 11750 Katy Freeway, Suite 900, Houston, TX 77079.

Stockholders who comply with the requirements of our Bylaws with respect to advance written notice of stockholder director nominations at the Annual Meeting, including certain information that must be provided concerning the stockholder and each nominee, may nominate candidates for election as directors at the Annual Meeting by attending the meeting and offering the candidates into nomination at the time of the election of directors. Our Amended and Restated Bylaws were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 8-K on September 18, 2020, and can be viewed by visiting the SEC website at http://sec.gov. You may also obtain a copy of the Bylaws by writing to Andrew L. Puhala, Corporate Secretary, Stabilis Solutions, Inc., 11750 Katy Freeway, Suite 900, Houston, TX 77079. Such information must be provided within the period set forth below under “Stockholder Proposals for Next Annual Meeting.”

For a stockholder’s nominees to be included in the Company’s Proxy Statement for next year’s annual meeting the stockholder must give timely notice to the Company by the date set forth below under “Stockholder Proposals for Next Annual Meeting.”

Director Qualifications

The Board of Directors has not established any minimum qualifications for nomination as a director of the Company but has identified the following qualities and skills necessary for our directors to possess:

•

Integrity

•

Commitment to enhancing stockholder value

•

Ability to objectively analyze complex business problems and develop creative solutions

•

Pertinent expertise, experience and achievement in education, career and community

•

Familiarity with issues affecting the Company’s business

•

Availability to fulfill the required time commitment

•

Ability to work well with other directors

Identifying and Evaluating Nominees for Directors

Candidates for director may come from a number of sources including, among others, recommendations from current directors, recommendations from management, third-party search organizations, and stockholders. Director candidates are evaluated to determine whether they have the qualities and skills set forth above. Such evaluation may be by personal interview, background investigation and other appropriate means. The Board of Directors does not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of diversity in identifying director nominees. However, in identifying nominees for director, the Board does seek to have directors with a diversity of business experience and skills which allow for the expression of diverse viewpoints.

Director Attendance at the Annual Meeting

We encourage but do not require our directors to attend the Annual Meeting. All of the directors attended the 2025 Annual Meeting.

Stockholder Communications with the Board

Stockholders may communicate with the Board in writing by addressing mail to “Board of Directors” c/o Andrew L. Puhala, Corporate Secretary, Stabilis Solutions, Inc., 11750 Katy Freeway, Suite 900, Houston, TX 77079. Any such communication will be distributed to each of the Company’s directors. A communication addressed to any individual director at the same address will be distributed only to that director.

Board Leadership Structure

The objective of the Board's leadership structure is to provide effective oversight of management on behalf of all stockholders. The Board's two standing committees are described below. J. Casey Crenshaw serves as the Executive Chairman of the Board as well as the interim principal executive officer. The Company does not currently have a lead independent board member. Prior to serving as the Executive Chairman and interim principal executive officer, Mr. Crenshaw served as the Board's Chairman since July 26, 2019; Mr. Crenshaw was not the principal executive officer during this period.

The Board believes its current leadership structure is appropriate for a closely held public company, as it combines the founders' long-term strategic alignment and institutional knowledge with meaningful independent oversight from directors who have substantial business experience as well as experience navigating public company governance, compliance, and accountability obligations. The Board's three independent directors — each with significant public company experience — provide robust oversight of management.

Board Committees

The Board of Directors of the Company has a standing Audit Committee and Compensation Committee.

Audit Committee

The Board adopted its current Audit Committee Charter on May 4, 2026. The principal functions of the Audit Committee are to review and monitor the Company’s financial reporting and the internal and external audits. The committee’s functions include, among other things: (i) to select and replace the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; (ii) to review and approve in advance the scope and the fees of our annual audit and the scope and fees of non-audit services of the independent registered public accounting firm; (iii) to receive and consider a report from the independent registered public accounting firm concerning their conduct of the audit, including any comments or recommendations they might want to make in that connection; and (iv) to review compliance with and the adequacy of our major accounting and financial reporting policies and controls. The members of the Audit Committee are currently Peter C. Mitchell (Chairman), Matthew W. Morris, and Edward L. Kuntz. The Audit Committee met four times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The Board has determined that Messrs. Mitchell, Morris, and Kuntz are “independent” as defined in the rules of the NASDAQ and that Messrs. Mitchell and Kuntz each qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. A copy of the Audit Committee charter is available at https://stabilis-solutions.com.

Compensation Committee

The Board of Directors established the Compensation Committee as a standing committee on September 11, 2019. The primary functions of the Compensation Committee are to review and approve the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and the other executive officers of the Company, to recommend the compensation of the directors, to review and approve the terms of any employment agreements with executive officers and to produce an annual report for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement. The Compensation Committee also administers and interprets the Company’s equity compensation and employee benefit plans and grants all awards under the Amended and Restated 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan. The members of the Compensation Committee are currently J. Casey Crenshaw (Chairman), Peter C. Mitchell, Matthew W. Morris, and Edward L. Kuntz. The Compensation Committee met three times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The Board of Directors determined that Messrs. Mitchell, Morris, and Kuntz are considered independent as defined in the rules of the NASDAQ. A copy of the Compensation Committee charter is available at https://stabilis-solutions.com.

Board’s Role in Risk Management

The Board of Directors, through the Audit Committee, provides oversight of the implementation and operation of the Company’s risk management processes.

Code of Ethics

The Company has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics for its directors, officers and employees. A copy of the code of business conduct and ethics is available at https://www.stabilis-solutions.com.

Attendance at Meetings

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Board of Directors held six meetings. No member of the Board of Directors attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board, and meetings of committees on which the director served, held in 2025.

Director Compensation

For 2025, the Board has established cash compensation for its independent directors at $125,000 per annum payable quarterly. However, the Board can elect to pay 50% of such compensation in Company common stock in any year with one-year vesting by Board resolution at the first meeting of the Board in such year.

Directors who are not independent receive no separate compensation for director service. The Company pays each director’s reasonable travel, lodging, meals and other expenses connected with their Board service.

2025 Director Compensation

The following table describes the compensation earned by each individual who served as an independent director during 2025.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Casey Crenshaw as President and Ben Broussard (a member of our Board) as Chief Financial Officer of The Modern Group.

The new office lease is effective October 1, 2025. From January 1, 2025 through September 30, 2025, the Company paid The Modern Group $0.2 million related to its sublease.

Other Purchases

The Company purchases supplies and services from a subsidiary of The Modern Group.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, purchases from The Modern Group were $0.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The Company had no sales to The Modern Group in 2025 or 2024. There was no receivable due from The Modern Group as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and amounts due to The Modern Group were immaterial.

Chart Energy & Chemicals, Inc. (“Chart E&C”) beneficially owns 7.9% of our outstanding common stock. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had total purchases from Chart E&C of $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

Based on our review of the copies of such reports, we believe that all such reports required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act were in compliance with such filing requirements during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 with the exception of one late Form 4 by Mr. Ballard.

The Audit Committee pre-approved all of the fees described above.

The Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of the above services other than audit services is compatible with maintaining auditor independence.

Pay Versus Performance Table

As required under SEC rules adopted pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation and certain measurements of the Company's performance.

The following table sets forth the information of our NEOs, consisting of the Company's primary executive officer ("PEO") and primary financial officer ("PFO") for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023.

Amounts in column (c) represent "compensation actually paid"("CAP"), computed under the definition of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K; and do not represent the actual amount of compensation paid or earned during the applicable year. Accordingly, stock-based awards have been adjusted to reflect fair value based on the Company's stock price at either the end of the applicable year or at the vesting date, as opposed to the price at the date of grant under FASB ASC 718. The following is a detail of the adjustments, reconciling column (b) to column (c) on the above "Pay versus Performance" Table:

Amounts in column (e) represent "compensation actually paid"("CAP"), computed under the definition of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K; and do not represent the actual amount of compensation paid or earned during the applicable year. For Column (e), the amount is based on the Company's non-PEO NEO. Accordingly, stock-based awards have been adjusted to reflect fair value based on the Company's stock price at either the end of the applicable year or at the vesting date, as opposed to the price at the date of grant under FASB ASC 718. A detail of the adjustments, reconciling column (d) to column (e) on the above "Pay versus Performance" Table is set forth in the table below. 2025 amounts are the same for Mr. Crenshaw with "compensation actually paid" reflecting no equity awards or related fair value recasts for Mr. Crenshaw.

Relationship Between "Compensation actually paid" and Performance Measures

The following illustrates and describes the relationship between the “compensation actually paid” to our named executive officers and the financial performance metrics disclosed in the pay versus performance table above. Below is the comparison of the "compensation actually paid" to our PEO and PFO to (a) Total Shareholder Return (TSR) and (b) Net Income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2024 and 2025:

					Change 2024 vs 2023 (1)								Change 2025 vs 2024 (1)

While the table above denotes correlations in TSR, note that in its pay deliberations, the Compensation Committee evaluates performance based on progress against a broad range of plan goals and objectives and performance measures and industry benchmarks. See "Elements of Compensation" and "Annual Cash Bonuses and Annual Non-equity Incentive Plan Compensation" below for further information.

For 2025, PEO 2 "compensation actually paid" increased primarily due to the revaluation of stock options due to the modification of the option terms related to the former PEO separation. PEO 2 compensation on the Summary Compensation Table as well as "compensation actually paid" increased for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024 due to separation pay. For 2025, PFO "compensation actually paid" increased, reflecting an improvement in the Company's stock price at vesting in 2025. TSR decreased for the year ended December 31, 2025 reflecting the lower stock price at year end.

Net income decreased for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company does not directly use net income to determine compensation levels. The Company evaluates executive compensation based on a broad range of plan goals and objectives, including Adjusted EBITDA, of which net income is a component. For further information on our compensation philosophy, structure, and compensation decisions, see "Elements of Compensation" and "Annual Cash Bonuses and Annual Non-equity Incentive Plan Compensation" below.

For additional information on our compensation see "Elements of Compensation" and "Annual Cash Bonuses and Annual Non-equity Incentive Plan Compensation" below.

Overview and Objectives

We believe our success depends on the continued contributions of our named executive officers. We have established our executive compensation program to attract, motivate, and retain our key employees in order to enable us to maximize our profitability and value over the long term. Our policies are also intended to support the achievement of our strategic objectives by aligning the interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders through operational and financial performance goals and equity-based compensation. We expect that our compensation program will continue to be focused on building long-term shareholder value by attracting, motivating and retaining talented, experienced executives and other key employees. Currently, our Principal Executive Officer oversees the compensation programs for our executive officers.

Elements of Compensation

Historically, we have compensated our named executive officers with annual base salaries, non-equity annual cash incentive compensation and employee benefits. We expect that these elements will continue to constitute the primary elements of our compensation program, although the relative proportions of each element, and the specific plan and award designs, will likely evolve. Additionally, our named executive officers may be awarded long-term equity incentives in the form of restricted stock awards, stock options, stock appreciation rights and other awards under the Amended and Restated 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

Base Salary

Base salary is the fixed annual compensation we pay to each of our named executive officers for carrying out their specific job responsibilities. Base salaries are a major component of the total annual cash compensation paid to our named executive officers. Base salaries are determined after taking into account many factors, including (a) the responsibilities of the officer, the level of experience and expertise required for the position and the strategic impact of the position; (b) the need to recognize each officer’s unique value and demonstrated individual contribution, as well as future contributions; (c) the performance of the Company and each officer; and (d) salaries paid for comparable positions in similarly-situated companies.

For the amounts of base salary that our named executive officers received in 2025 and 2024, see “Executive Compensation-Summary Compensation Table.”

Our Board reviews the base salaries for each named executive officer periodically as well as at the time of any promotion or significant change in job responsibilities and, in connection with each review, our Board considers individual and company performance over the course of the relevant time period. The Board may make adjustments to base salaries for named executive officers upon consideration of any factors that it deems relevant, including but not limited to: (a) any increase or decrease in the named executive officer’s responsibilities, (b) the named executive officer’s job performance, and (c) the level of compensation paid to senior executives of other companies with whom we compete for executive talent, as estimated based on publicly available information and the experience of our directors.

Annual Cash Bonuses and Annual Non-equity Incentive Plan Compensation

Our annual non-equity incentive compensation plan is designed to reward executive officers and other key employees for their contributions based on achievement of annual performance objectives. For 2025, our Board approved a defined financial performance target based upon adjusted EBITDA and other non-financial performance targets, including Health Safety and Environment ("HSE") and other corporate goals. Our Board believes that these were appropriate measures on which to base the Company's 2025 non-equity incentive compensation because they encourage our executives to improve operational execution, efficiencies, profitability, safety and other components. Our Board reviews and monitors the Company's annual non-equity incentive compensation plan to ensure that established targets are consistent with the compensation strategy for the Company. Established targets are set that allow executives and key employees to earn up to a maximum of 150% of their annual non-equity incentive compensation target. With respect to the Adjusted EBITDA target for 2025, the approved target was consistent with the Company’s annual business plan. For the year ended December 31, 2025, actual Adjusted EBITDA and the Company's non-financial performance exceeded the threshold that allowed executives and employees to earn an average of 81.4% of their annual non-equity incentive compensation target. Mr. Crenshaw's compensation structure does not include a performance award. Mr. Ballard did not earn the performance award for 2025 performance because he separated from the Company in early 2025 and also did not receive a performance award for 2024 performance since the separation was prior to the payout. Mr. Puhala earned a performance award of $142,363 for 2025 performance. For the year ended December 31, 2024, actual Adjusted EBITDA and the Company's non-financial performance exceeded the threshold that allowed executives and employees to earn between 90% and 110% of their annual non-equity incentive compensation target. Mr. Puhala earned a performance award of $122,472 for 2024 performance.

Other Benefits

We offer participation in broad-based retirement, health and welfare plans to all of our employees.

Risk Considerations

The Compensation Committee considers whether the Company’s compensation policies and practices for both executives and other employees encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking.

Base salaries are not believed to encourage excessive risk taking. The Company’s Executive Performance Bonus Program does focus on achievement of annual Company and/or individual performance goals, but both the Company and individual goals are considered appropriate for achievement without unnecessary and excess risk taking.

Pension Benefits

We have not maintained and do not currently maintain a defined benefit pension plan or a supplemental executive retirement plan. Instead, our employees, including our named executive officers, may participate in a retirement plan intended to provide benefits under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “401(k) Plan”) pursuant to which employees are allowed to contribute a portion of their base compensation to a tax-qualified retirement account in a defined safe harbor 401(k) Plan, subject to limitations.

Non-Qualified Defined Contribution and Other Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plans

We have not had and do not currently have any defined contribution or other plan that provides for the deferral of compensation on a basis that is not tax-qualified.

The Amended and Restated 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan

The Company has a long-term incentive plan, originally approved by the Board of Directors in 2019. In July 2021 and in August 2023, the plan was amended (the “Amended and Restated Plan”) to increase the maximum number of shares of common stock available for issuance from its original 1,675,000 shares to 4,000,000 (in July 2021) and to 5,500,000 (in August 2023). The plan provides for the award of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, dividend equivalents, substitute awards, other stock-based awards, cash awards and/or any combination of the foregoing which may be granted to employees, officers and directors of the Company and affiliates or to any other person who performs services to the Company and affiliates, including independent contractors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries.

No participant may receive a grant covering more than 2,000,000 shares of our common stock in any year and a non-employee member of the Board may not be granted more than 100,000 shares in any year. In the event of certain changes in the Company’s common stock such as recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, stock dividends or the like, appropriate adjustment will be made in the number and kind of shares available for issuance under the Amended and Restated Plan as well as the purchase price, if any, per share.

The maximum number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Amended and Restated 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan is 5,500,000 shares. As of June 8, 2026, the number of securities remaining available under the Plan is 3,872,379.

Employment agreements with executive officers

All current named executive officers are “at will” employees and are eligible to receive employee benefits generally available to all employees of the Company or the subsidiary by which they are employed and other benefits approved by the Compensation Committee.

Employment, Severance or Change in Control Agreements

Management Transition

On January 31, 2025, the Company appointed the Company’s Chairman of the Board, J. Casey Crenshaw, as its Executive Chairman, and Interim President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Crenshaw replaced Westervelt T. Ballard, Jr., who mutually agreed with the Company to terminate his employment as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and voluntarily resigned his position as a director. Mr. Crenshaw co-founded the Company in 2013. In his new role, Mr. Crenshaw assumed day-to-day operations leadership. In connection with Mr. Crenshaw’s position as Executive Chairman, the Company’s Board of Directors and Compensation Committee have approved annual cash compensation of $500,000 to Mr. Crenshaw. Mr. Crenshaw will not receive additional compensation for his roles as interim President and Chief Executive Officer.

Policies and Practices for Granting Equity Awards

The Compensation Committee has the responsibility for developing and maintaining an executive compensation policy including the granting of equity awards, consisting of stock appreciation rights, stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock awards and similar instruments. The Board monitors the results of such policies. The Compensation Committee does not have a set policy regarding the timing of the approval and grant of equity awards; however, the Company does not grant and has not granted equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information, nor timed the release of material nonpublic information based on grant dates of such instruments for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, (i) none of our NEOs were awarded stock options with an effective grant date during any period beginning four business days before the filing or furnishing of a Form 10-Q, Form 10-K or Form 8-K that disclosed material nonpublic information, and ending on business day after the filing or furnishing of such reports, and (ii) we did not time the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
