RNS Number : 5132S  Yellow Cake PLC  25 July 2025

25 July 2025

 

Yellow Cake plc ("Yellow Cake" or the "Company" or "Group")

Board Change

Yellow Cake, a specialist Group operating in the uranium sector, holding
physical uranium ("U(3)O(8)") for the long term and engaged in uranium-related
commercial activities, is pleased to confirm the appointment of Zoe Rizzuto as
an independent non-executive director with effect from 25 July 2025.

Zoe Rizzuto is an Executive Director at Langham Hall Fund Management (Jersey)
Limited, having joined the firm in August 2014. She brings over 25 years of
experience in Jersey's financial services industry. Ms Rizzuto holds
board-level responsibility for the fund administration business in Jersey and
has overseen all departments within Langham Hall Jersey during her tenure.

Ms Rizzuto has extensive expertise in both private client services and fund
administration, with over a decade spent in senior roles across these areas.
She has worked with a diverse range of clients, structures, assets, and
jurisdictions.

She currently serves on the boards of several regulated and unregulated Jersey
vehicles, managing a wide variety of assets, including residential and
commercial property, investment portfolios, and debt structures. Ms Rizzuto is
approved to act as a key person by the Jersey Financial Services Commission.
Ms Rizzuto is a Chartered Secretary and an Associate of The Chartered
Governance Institute.

Ms Rizzuto's appointment follows the resignation of Claire Brazenall as an
independent non-executive director with effect from 25 July 2025. The Board
would like to take this opportunity to express its sincere gratitude to Claire
for her significant contribution to Yellow Cake.

Further information in relation to the Director appointment

Zoe Rizzuto

Zoe Rizzuto is an Executive Director at Langham Hall Fund Management (Jersey)
Limited. Langham Hall provides administration services to the Group, which
will include the services of Ms Rizzuto.  The Board acknowledges the
potential impairment of Ms Rizzuto's independence owing to its business
relationship with Langham Hall, as outlined in provision 10 of the UK
Corporate Governance Code (which the Company elects to comply with insofar as
appropriate given the Group's size, business and resources).

The Board nevertheless regards Ms Rizzuto as an independent non-executive
director and undertook a rigorous evaluation to reach this conclusion. Ms
Rizzuto did not participate in her own assessment.

Ms Rizzuto brings valuable expertise, particularly in governance, compliance,
and the Jersey regulatory environment, along with extensive knowledge of asset
management and administration. Her insights are expected to enhance Board
discussions and provide objective scrutiny and constructive challenge to both
management and fellow directors.

In addition, the Group's business relationship with Langham Hall is not
considered material. Langham Hall has multiple similar relationships and Ms
Rizzuto does not directly benefit from any fees paid by the Group to Langham
Hall. No element of her compensation from Langham Hall is tied to her role as
a director of Yellow Cake.

Ms Rizzuto will not serve on the Company's audit, remuneration, or nomination
committees.

Zoe Amy Rizzuto (aged 48) has held the following directorships and/or
partnerships in the past five years:

ABOUT YELLOW CAKE

Yellow Cake is a London-quoted company, headquartered in Jersey, which offers
exposure to the uranium spot price. This is achieved through its strategy of
buying and holding physical triuranium octoxide ("U(3)O(8)"). It may also seek
to add value through other uranium-related activities. Yellow Cake and its
wholly owned subsidiary (the "Group") seek to generate returns for
shareholders through the appreciation of the value of its holding of U(3)O(8)
and its other uranium-related activities in a rising uranium price
environment. The business is differentiated from its peers by its ten-year
Framework Agreement for the supply of U(3)O(8) with Kazatomprom, the world's
largest uranium producer. The Group currently holds 21.68 million pounds of
U(3)O(8), all of which is held in storage in Canada and France.
