Governance Assessment
- Board effectiveness: Bromiley’s tenure and CPA background strengthen audit oversight; she serves on the Audit Committee with an SEC-defined “financial expert” (Kimble), supporting robust financial reporting and controls .
- Independence and attendance: She is independent; the Board reports strong participation (≥75% for all directors) and full nominee attendance at the annual meeting, bolstering investor confidence .
- Alignment: Bromiley’s equity holdings and increased equity retainer in 2024 enhance alignment; directors are subject to stock ownership guidelines (4x cash retainer) and anti-hedging/pledging policies .
- Conflicts/related party: No Bromiley-specific related party transactions disclosed; NOG has a formal related person transaction policy with Audit Committee review .
- Compensation governance: Compensation Committee is fully independent and uses an external consultant (WTW); 2024 Say-on-Pay support was ~84%—a neutral/positive signal on pay practices oversight by the Board .
RED FLAGS: None identified for Bromiley specifically—no pledging/hedging, no options repricing, no related-party transactions disclosed involving her, and independence affirmed .
Monitoring items: Elevated Chair compensation is above market per Board disclosure (justified by workload), but not directly tied to Bromiley; continue to monitor committee workloads and director equity mix to ensure sustained alignment .
