Alamos Gold Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid
Toronto, Ontario (December 20, 2018) – Alamos Gold Inc. (TSX:AGI; NYSE:AGI) (“Alamos”
or the “Company”) today announced that it has filed with and received acceptance from the
Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), for a Notice of Intention to make a Normal Course Issuer Bid
permitting Alamos to purchase for cancellation up to 25,513,043 Class A Common Shares
(“Common Shares”), representing 10% of the Company’s public float of the Common Shares
as of December 14, 2018, being 255,130,432 Common Shares. As at December 14, 2018, there
were 391,248,754 Common Shares issued and outstanding.
Alamos may purchase Common Shares under the Normal Cours e Issuer Bid over the next
twelve-month period beginning December 24, 2018 and ending December 23, 2019. Any
purchases made under the Normal Course Issuer Bid will be effected through the facilities of
the TSX, alternative Canadian trading systems and/or t he New York Stock Exchange. The
maximum number of Common Shares that Alamos may purchase on the TSX on a daily basis,
other than block purchase exceptions, is 191,200 Common Shares.
The price for any repurchased Common Shares will be the prevailing market price at the time
of the purchase. All Common Shares purchased by Alamos will be cancelled. Purchase and
payment for the Common Shares will be made by Alamos in accordance with the requirements
of the TSX and applicable securities laws.
A Normal Course Issuer Bid is being undertaken as the Company and its Board of Directors
believe the share price of its Common Shares from time to time to be not reflective of the
underlying value of the Company. The Company believes it advantageous to its shareholders
to engage in repurchases of Common Shares, from time to time, when they are trading at prices
which reflect a discount from their value by increasing the proportionate share of ownership of
the Company to remaining shareholders. Alamos has not purchased any of the Common
Shares in the preceding twelve months.
