Altiplano Makes Application for Management Cease Trade Order
As Part of the 2026 Audit Filing Process
EDMONTON AB, July 21, 2026 – Altiplano Metals Inc . (TSXV: APN) (WKN: A2JNFG) ( “Altiplano” or the
“Company”) announces that it anticipates a delay in filing its annual financial statements for the year
ended March 31, 2026, management's discussion and analysis, and the related CEO and CFO certifications
(collectively, the "Required Filings"), which are due on July 29, 2026, as required under Part 4 of National
Instrument 51 -102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations . Accordingly, the Company has applied for a
management cease trade order (the "MCTO") under National Policy 12-203 – Management Cease Trade
Orders to provide additional time to complete the Required Filings.
The delay is primarily attributable to the Company's current financial position, which has impacted the
timing of payment of the outstanding audit fees required to complete the audit. Management has agreed
to loan the Company the funds necessary to satisfy the outstanding audit fees, and the Company expects
that payment of such fees will enable the audit to be completed and the Required Filings to be made as
soon as practicable.
The Company remains committed to completing the audit and making the Required Filings as
expeditiously as possible and, in any event, no later than September 28, 2026. The Company expects to
file its interim first-quarter financial statements within one week thereafter.
In connection with the anticipated delays in making the Required Filings within the time periods mandated
by the Instrument, the Company has made an application under National Policy 12 -203 Management
Cease Trade Orders (“ NP 12-203”) to the Alberta Securities Commission, as principal regulator for the
Company, requesting that a MCTO be issued. If granted, the MCTO will restrict all trading by the
Company’s CEO and CFO in securities of the Company, whether direct or indirect. The i ssuance of the
MCTO will not affect the ability of persons who are not directors, officers or insiders of the Company to
trade their securities. MCTO will remain in effect until it is revoked or varied.
The Company confirms that it intends to satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines
described in NP 12 -203 by issuing bi -weekly default status reports in the form of a news release until it
meets the Required Filings requirement. The Company has not taken any steps towards any insolvency
proceeding and the Company has no material information relating to its affairs that has not been generally
disclosed.
