Fancamp Announces Delay in Filing Annual Financial Results and Issuance of Management Cease Trade Order
30 August 2023 - 9:49AM
Fancamp Exploration Ltd. (“
Fancamp” or the
“
Corporation”) (TSX Venture Exchange:
FNC) today announced a delay in filing its audited
annual financial statements and management discussion &
analysis for the financial year ended April 30, 2023, and the CEO
and CFO certificates, all as required by National Instrument 51-102
– Continuous Disclosure Obligations and National Instrument 52-109
– Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim
Filings (collectively, the “
Documents”).
The delay in filing the Documents is due to the
Company’s auditors requiring additional time to complete their
audit of the annual financial statements for the financial year
ended April 30, 2023 due to, among other things, ongoing
consideration and review of the accounting presentation in respect
of certain of the Company’s equity security holdings and the fair
value assessment of certain convertible promissory notes and
warrants held by the Company.
Accordingly, the Company has informed the
British Columbia Securities Commission (the
“BCSC”) of its delay in filing the Documents and
has applied for and been granted a management cease trade order
(“MCTO”) from the BCSC pursuant to National Policy
12-203 – Management Cease Trade Orders (“NP
12-203”), pending the filing of the Documents, which MCTO
prohibits the Company’s management from trading in the securities
of the Company until such time as the Documents are filed. The MCTO
does not affect the ability of any other shareholders of the
Company to trade securities of the Company.
During the period of default and until the
filing of the Documents, the Company intends to satisfy the
provisions of the “alternative information guidelines” as set out
in NP 12-203, including the requirement to file bi-weekly status
reports in the form of news releases containing prescribed updating
information. The Company intends to work diligently and
expeditiously with its auditors and expects to file the Documents
on or around September 11, 2023.
Until the Company has filed the Documents, the
Company’s management are subject to an insider trading black-out.
The Company confirms that, other than as disclosed in prior press
releases and material change reports, there have been no material
business developments since the filing of the Company's latest
interim financial report. The Company is not currently subject to
any insolvency proceedings.
