Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
Change in Company Name
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of U.S. Energy Corp. (the “Company”, “we” and “us”), approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”), to change the Company’s name to Big Sky Industrial Inc. (the “Name Change”). On June 3, 2026, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Charter, which will effect the Name Change effective at 12:01 a.m. on June 8, 2026. Pursuant to Section 242(d)(1) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”), the Name Change did not require approval of the Company’s stockholders and will not affect the rights of the Company’s security holders. A copy of the Certificate of Amendment is included as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
Additionally, the Board approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws solely to reflect the Name Change (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”). The Amended and Restated Bylaws will become effective immediately after the Name Change on June 8, 2026. In accordance with the DGCL and the provisions of the Company’s organizational documents, the Board approved the Amended and Restated Bylaws, and stockholder approval was not required for such amendment. A copy of the Amended and Restated Bylaws is included as Exhibit 3.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
There were no other changes to the Charter or the Bylaws except as disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On June 4, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the Name Change and Symbol Change (discussed below). A copy of the press release is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, and is not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
New Nasdaq Ticker Symbol
At the market open on June 8, 2026, the trading symbol of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market is expected to change to “BSIN”, to better reflect the Company’s new name (the “Symbol Change”).
There will be no change in the Company’s CUSIP number in connection with the Name Change.
New Corporate Website
In connection with the Name Change, the Company launched a new corporate website: www.bigskyindustrialinc.com. The Company’s investor relations information, including press releases and links to the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, will now be found on this website. The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to these reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Company’s corporate governance documents, including the charters of the committees of the Board and Code of Ethics and Conduct, are available on this website. Any amendments to or waivers of the Company’s Code of Ethics and Conduct will be disclosed on this website.
Certificates
The Name Change and Symbol Change do not affect the rights of the Company’s security holders. The Company’s common stock will continue to be traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Following the Name Change, the stock certificates of the Company which reflect the former name of the Company, will continue to be valid. Certificates reflecting the Name Change will be issued in due course as old stock certificates are tendered for exchange or transfer to the Company’s transfer agent.
