Oct. 6, 2020
/CNW/ - Sailfish Royalty Corp. (TSX-V: FISH)
(the "Company" or "Sailfish") announces that it has filed with the TSX Venture Exchange (the
"Exchange") a notice of its intention to amend its previously announced Normal Course Issuer Bid
(the "Bid") to increase the number of common shares of the Company (the "Shares") which the
Company may repurchase for cancellation under the bid from 2,089,799 Shares, or 5% of the
Company's issued and outstanding Shares as of the date of commencement of the Bid, less
819,000 common shares of the Company purchased under the Company's previous normal course
issuer bid between
October 8, 2019
and
June 24, 2020
, to 2,963,322 Shares, representing 5% of
the Company's 75,646,451 Shares issued and outstanding as of October 2, 2020, less the 819,000
common shares of the Company purchased under the Company's previous normal course issuer bid
between
October 8, 2019
and June 24, 2020.
Under the Bid, which commenced on
July 6, 2020
, the Company has repurchased a total of
1,237,400 Shares at a weighted average price of
$1.4359
per Share as of the date hereof.
Other than the increase to the maximum number of Shares which may be purchased by the
Company pursuant to the Bid, no further amendments have been made to the Bid, and the Bid is still
set to terminate on
July 6, 2021
. For further details regarding the Bid, please refer to the Company's
prior news release dated
July 6, 2020
.
The Board of Directors of the Company continue to believe that the recent market prices of the
Shares do not properly reflect the underlying value of such shares. As a result, depending upon
future price movements and other factors, the Board believes that the purchase of the Shares would
be an appropriate use of corporate funds and in the best interests of the Company and its
shareholders. Furthermore, the purchases are expected to benefit all persons who continue to hold
Shares by increasing their equity interest in the Company if the repurchased Shares are cancelled.
The amendment to the Bid is subject to Exchange approval.
