Warning signs in its filings

Problems the company itself reported to the SEC, in its own words.

2 serious warning signs in U S Global Investors’ filings.

We look for five warning signs: doubt it can keep going, weak checks on its own accounts, a notice that its past accounts can't be relied on, a change of auditor, and one customer bringing in a big share of sales. We don't check lawsuits, investigations or debt yet.

We checked the auditor's report, internal controls, restatement notices, auditor changes and big customers in the 10-K filed 3 Sep 2026, and no later 8-Ks.

  • Weak checks on its own accounts

    Serious

    The company said its checks on its own accounts did not work at year end. Mistakes could slip into the numbers.

    “Based on that evaluation, and because of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2026.”

    Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is: (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (2) accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. An evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026. Based on that evaluation, and because of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2026.

    From the 10-K filed 3 September 2026, Item 9A. Controls and Procedures. Read it in the filing

  • Its past accounts can't be relied on

    Serious

    It told the SEC its earlier accounts should no longer be relied on, usually because they contained errors.

    8-K Item 4.02 filed 2 Jun 2026: the company said its earlier financial statements should no longer be relied on.

    From an 8-K filed 2 June 2026: Previously issued accounts should no longer be relied on. Open the filing

A 10-K is the yearly report every US company files with the SEC. An 8-K is a short notice of a big event.

The deep dive

Everything above is arithmetic on public filings. The deep dive reads the last ten years of annual reports, the proxy statements, and the earnings calls, then argues the case the way Buffett, Klarman, and Hohn would, and checks every claim against the source.
