On May 28, 2026, Comstock Inc. (the “Company”) held its Annual General Meeting of Stockholders (the “AGM”). During the AGM, common stockholders of the Company were asked to consider and vote on four proposals: (1) election of the eight Board of Directors nominees set forth in the Company's 2026 Proxy Statement, (2) ratification of the appointment of Assure CPA, LLC (“Assure”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, (3) approval of a non-binding advisory resolution approving the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, and (4) approval of the Comstock Inc. 2026 Equity Incentive Plan.
