Allied GOLD Provides Update ON Transactions with Ambrosia Investment Holding and NYSE Listing
NEWS RELEASE
ALLIED GOLD PROVIDES UPDATE ON TRANSACTIONS WITH AMBROSIA
INVESTMENT HOLDING AND NYSE LISTING
TORONTO, ON – April 14, 2025 ─ Allied Gold Corporation (TSX: AAUC, OTCQX:
AAUCF) (“Allied” or the “Company”) announces that it will not proceed with the previously
announced private placement with Ambrosia Investment Holding L.L.C – S.P.C (“Ambrosia”) as
certain conditions precedent to the completion of the private placement were not secured. As the
$3.40 price protection provided by the Toronto Stock Exchange for the private placement was set
to expire, the Company chose not to request a further extension of the period for closing at that
price. The Company considered the time and effort involved, the significant increase in gold price
and its share price in the interim period, the evolution and impacts in trading liquidity and eligibility
for index inclusion, as well as meaningful improvements in its business plan and outlook, all of
which is expected to support a higher share price than contemplated in the private placement.
Ambrosia has indicated a willingness to continue advanced discussions relating to a joint venture
and long-term power supply arrangement for the Sadiola mine in Mali, substantively on terms as
previously disclosed and independently of the private placement. As the Company evaluates its
broader strategic objectives, alternatives and opportunities regarding Sadiola, the Company is
advancing its ongoing optimizations and expansions of Sadiola with the first phase expansion
expected to be completed on budget and on schedule later this year with the second phase
expansion to follow after that.
NYSE Listing
As previously disclosed (see March 26, 2025 press release), Allied is pursuing a listing on the
New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and has reserved the ticker symbol “AAUC” in connection
with the proposed listing. The Company is pleased to provide the update that it has now been
cleared by the NYSE to file its formal listing application. The Company is advancing its listing
application and expects to be listed on the NYSE by the beginning of the third quarter of 2025;
however, there can be no assurance that it will receive listing approval from the NYSE to complete
such listing. Allied believes that listing on the NYSE will provide the Company with, among other
things, access to a broader investor audience, increased sources of potential capital, improved
trading liquidity in Allied's common shares , and increased research coverage from U.S.
investment banks. Finally, the listing is expected to provide the opportunity for broader index
inclusion.
