Jamieson Wellness Inc. (“
Jamieson Wellness” or the
“
Company”) (TSX: JWEL) announced today that it has
received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the
“
TSX”) to renew its prior normal course issuer bid
(the “
NCIB”). The Company may purchase for
cancellation up to 3,502,925 common shares of the Company pursuant
to the NCIB, which represents approximately 10% of the Company's
public float (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX)
as of January 20, 2025. The NCIB will commence on February 3, 2025
and will expire on the earlier of February 2, 2026, or the date on
which the Company has either acquired the maximum number of common
shares allowable or otherwise decided not to make any further
repurchases. As of January 20, 2025, there were 41,950,837 common
shares issued and outstanding.
The average daily trading volume for the six
months ended December 31, 2024 (“ADTV”),
calculated in accordance with the rules of the TSX for purposes of
the NCIB, was 46,979 common shares. Under the rules of the TSX,
Jamieson is entitled to repurchase, during each trading day, up to
25% of the ADTV or up to 11,744 common shares (excluding any
purchases made pursuant to the block purchase exception in
accordance with TSX rules) through the TSX.
The purchases will be made by means of open
market transactions through the facilities of the TSX and through
alternative trading systems in Canada. The price to be paid by the
Company for any such repurchased common shares will be the market
price at the time of acquisition or such other price as a
securities regulatory authority may permit. All common shares
repurchased under the NCIB will be cancelled.
The Company has entered into an automatic share
purchase plan (“ASPP”) with a designated broker,
to allow for purchases of its common shares during certain
pre-determined black-out periods, subject to certain parameters.
The ASPP constitutes an “automatic securities purchase plan” under
applicable Canadian securities laws, has been approved by the TSX
and will be implemented effective February 3, 2025.
