FINANCIAL RESULTS DUE TO DELAYS CAUSED BY COVID-19
TORONTO, ONTARIO, May 29, 2020 — Conic Metals Corp. (“Conic ” or the “ Company”) (TSXV:
NKL) today provided an update on timing of the release and filing of its financial results for the period
ended March 31, 2020.
In response to the ongoing global COVID- 19 pandemic, the Canadian S ecurities Administrators have
recently announced temporary blanket relief allowing market participants an additional 45 days in which
to complete certain regulatory filings required to be made on or before June 1, 2020 (including financial
statements and management’s discussion and analysis). Accordingly, the Company intends to rely on this
blanket relief for the filing of the Company’s quarterly financial statements for the period ended March 31,
2020 (and related management’s discussion and analysis thereon) (collectively, the “ Q1 2020 Disclosure
Documents”) as a result of delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company, under this temporary
relief, is making every effort to issue and file the Q1 2020 Disclosure Documents at the earliest opportunity
and currently expects to file them no later than July 14, 2020.
The Company confirms that there have been no material business developments since filing its Listing
Application on November 7, 2019, which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com . Until such time as
the Q1 2020 Disclosure Documents are filed, the Company’s management and other insiders will observe
a trading blackout consistent with the principles contained in section 9 of National Policy 11-207 – Failure
to File Cease Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions.
