Perth, Australia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 12, 2024) - Golden Horse Minerals Limited (TSXV: GHML) ("Golden Horse" or the "Company") announces that, following approval by its board of directors, the Company will consolidate its issued and outstanding common shares ("Common Shares") at a ratio of four (4) pre-consolidation Common Shares to one (1) post-consolidation Common Share ("Consolidation"). The Common Shares will commence trading on a post-Consolidation basis at the start of trading on July 17, 2024.
The Consolidation was undertaken in connection with the Company's planned dual listing on the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") which is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2024. Pursuant to ASX listing requirements, a minimum A$0.20 share price must be demonstrated prior to the listing date.
No fractional Common Shares will be issued as a result of the Consolidation. The holdings of any shareholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional Common Share as a result of the Consolidation shall be rounded up to the next higher whole number if the fraction is 0.5 or greater, and rounded down to the next lower whole number if the fraction is less than 0.5.
Letters of transmittal have been mailed to all registered shareholders of the Company with instructions on how to exchange existing share certificates for new share certificates or DRS statements.
Registered shareholders who hold their Common Shares via DRS are not required to complete a letter of transmittal. A sample letter of transmittal is also available on the Company's profile page on SEDAR+, if a registered shareholder does not receive a letter of transmittal in respect of its Common Shares represented by share certificates.
Non-registered shareholders (i.e. beneficial shareholders) who hold their Common Shares through an intermediary (i.e. a securities dealer, bank or financial institution) should note that the intermediary may have different procedures for processing the Consolidation from those that will be put in place by the Company for registered shareholders. Shareholders who hold their Common Shares through an intermediary who have questions in this regard should contact their intermediary for more information.
Prior to implementing the Consolidation, the Company had 183,341,252 Common Shares issued and outstanding and immediately after implementing the Consolidation, the Company will have 45,835,332 Common Shares issued and outstanding (subject to final immaterial rounding).
The Company's new CUSIP number is 38107G205 and its new ISIN number is CA38107G2053.
The Company's outstanding warrants, options, performance rights and other convertible securities will be adjusted on the same basis as the Consolidation with respect to the underlying Common Shares exercisable pursuant to the warrants, options and other convertible securities, with proportionate adjustments being made to exercise or conversion prices, as applicable.
Graeme Sloan, Golden Horse's Chairman said: "The Consolidation is an important part of the Company's plans to list on the Australian Securities Exchange, as the listing price of the Company's securities at the date of listing must be at least A$0.20. We see the ASX listing as a key part of the Company's growth strategy and our ability to attract new investors whilst adding to the liquidity of the Company's securities. The Consolidation will have no effect on the percentage shareholding interest of any individual shareholder."
