As previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by U.S. Energy Corp. (the “Company”, “we” and “us”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 9, 2025 (the “October 2025 Form 8-K”), on October 9, 2025, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated as of October 9, 2025, with Roth Principal Investments, LLC (“Roth Principal Investments”). Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion, to sell to Roth Principal Investments up to $25,000,000 of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), subject to certain conditions and limitations contained in the Purchase Agreement, from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement.

 

Since the Company’s last periodic report on Form 10-Q filed with the Commission on November 12, 2025, the Company has issued and sold an aggregate of 2,022,539 shares of Common Stock to Roth Principal Investments pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,002,509.10. These issuances represent approximately 5.7% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock as of September 30, 2025, with a sale transaction completed on February 10, 2026 resulting in the 5% threshold being exceeded and triggering the disclosure requirements of Item 3.02 of Form 8-K.

 

The shares were issued in a private transaction in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering. Roth Principal Investments represented that it is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act and that it acquired the shares for investment purposes and not with a view to distribution. The Company filed a Form S-1 Registration Statement to register the resale of the shares sold under the Purchase Agreement as discussed above, which was declared effective with the Commission on December 1, 2025.

 

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit10.1 to the October 2025 Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
