Mr. Troy Grant reports
ELCORA ANNOUNCES POSSIBLE LATE FILING OF ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND MANAGEMENT CEASE TRADE ORDER
As a result of delays to the company's audit, Elcora Advanced Materials
Corp.'s annual financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, may not be finalized by July 29, 2025, being the date that such filings are due under applicable Canadian securities law requirements. Accordingly, the company will apply to the Nova Scotia Securities Commission for a management cease trade order (MCTO).
The company's inability to finalize its annual filings on time is due to a delay in receiving sufficient information from the issuer's 100-per-cent-owned subsidiary, Ermazon SARL, which is located in Morocco.
If the MCTO is granted, the company will comply with the alternative information guidelines set out in National Policy 12-203, Management Cease Trade Order, for issuers that have failed to comply with a specified continuous disclosure requirement within the times prescribed by applicable securities laws. The guidelines, among other things, require the company to issue biweekly default status reports by way of a news release so long as the annual filings have not been filed. During the MCTO, the general investing public will continue to be able to trade in the company's listed common shares. However, the company's chief executive officer, chief financial officer and directors will not be able to trade in the company's common shares.
The company will provide an update on its application of the MCTO in an upcoming news release.
