Vulcan Energy Resources Ltd. ( (AU:VUL) ) has issued an announcement.
Vulcan Energy’s board has approved significant remuneration adjustments for its Chief Executive Officer, Cris Moreno, and Group Chief Financial Officer, Felicity Gooding, effective 1 January 2026, reflecting the company’s transition from development into full execution of its Phase One Lionheart Project in Germany. Fixed pay for both executives has been increased, their short-term incentive opportunity has doubled to 50% with a portion subject to extended vesting, and long-term incentive percentages are unchanged but rise in absolute value, while Moreno and Gooding also assume expanded governance roles in key German subsidiaries. The board links these changes to the increasing scope, complexity and international governance demands as Vulcan moves into construction of its commercial Geothermal Lithium Extraction Plant, advances its upstream Field Development Plan and targets first commercial lithium production in 2028, underlining the strategic importance and scale of the Lionheart development for the company’s growth trajectory.
The most recent analyst rating on (AU:VUL) stock is a Hold with a A$4.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Vulcan Energy Resources Ltd. stock, see the AU:VUL Stock Forecast page.
