CALGARY, Alberta, May 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
阿爾伯塔省卡爾加裡,2023年5月30日(環球通訊社)
PrairieSky Royalty Ltd. ("PrairieSky" or the "Company") (TSX: PSK) is pleased to announce that the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") has accepted the notice of PrairieSky's intention to commence a normal course issuer bid (the "NCIB").
PrairieSky Royalty Ltd.(“普雷裡耶天空“或”公司“)(多倫多證券交易所股票代碼:PSK)很高興地宣佈,多倫多證券交易所(The”The“)多倫多證券交易所“)已接受PrairieSky有意開始正常路線發行人投標的通知(”NCIB“)。
On April 17, 2023, PrairieSky announced its intention to seek TSX approval to renew its NCIB for an additional one-year period. The NCIB allows the Company to purchase up to 16,624,000 common shares which represents 7.0% of the common shares outstanding, being 238,916,940 as of May 26, 2023, and 10% of the public float of 166,424,841 common shares which is defined as the common shares outstanding after excluding common shares beneficially owned by directors and executive officers of PrairieSky and persons who beneficially own or exercise control or direction over more than 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of PrairieSky. The NCIB will commence on June 1, 2023 and will expire no later than May 31, 2024.
2023年4月17日,PrairieSky宣佈打算尋求多倫多證交所批准將其NCIB延長一年。NCIB允許本公司購買最多16,624,000股普通股,相當於2023年5月26日已發行普通股的7.0%,即238,916,940股普通股,以及166,424,841股普通股公眾流通股的10%,普通股定義為剔除PrairieSky董事和高管以及實益擁有或控制或管理PrairieSky超過10%已發行和已發行普通股的人士實益擁有的普通股後的已發行普通股。NCIB將於2023年6月1日開始生效,至遲於2024年5月31日到期。
Under the NCIB, common shares may be repurchased in open market transactions on the TSX, and/or other Canadian alternative trading platforms. In accordance with the rules of the TSX governing normal course issuer bids, the total number of common shares the Company is permitted to purchase is subject to a daily purchase limit of 129,317 common shares, representing 25% of the average daily trading volume of common shares on the TSX calculated for the six-month period ended April 30, 2023, being approximately 517,270 common shares. However, the Company may make one block purchase per calendar week which exceeds the daily repurchase restriction. Any common shares that are purchased under the NCIB will be cancelled upon their purchase by PrairieSky.
根據NCIB,普通股可以在多倫多證券交易所和/或其他加拿大另類交易平臺的公開市場交易中回購。根據多倫多證券交易所管理正常進程發行人投標的規則,公司獲準購買的普通股總數受每日購買上限129,317股普通股的限制,相當於截至2023年4月30日的六個月期間計算的多倫多證券交易所普通股日均交易量的25%,約為517,270股普通股。然而,公司可能會在每個日曆周進行一次超過每日回購限制的大宗購買。根據NCIB購買的任何普通股將在PrairieSky購買後註銷。
PrairieSky currently intends to purchase up to a maximum of 16,624,000 common shares to effect NCIB purchases over the next 12 months through its broker BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. PrairieSky did not purchase any common shares under its current normal course issuer bid that commenced on May 26, 2022 and ran to May 25, 2023. Since instituting the normal course issuer bid in 2016 to March 31, 2023, PrairieSky has purchased and cancelled an aggregate of 16.7 million common shares at a weighted average price per share of $14.77.
PrairieSky目前打算在未來12個月內通過其經紀商BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc.購買最多16,624,000股普通股,以實現NCIB的購買。PrairieSky沒有根據其目前的正常路線發行人報價購買任何普通股。該報價從2022年5月26日開始,一直持續到2023年5月25日。自2016年啟動正常路線發行人競標以來,截至2023年3月31日,PrairieSky已以每股14.77美元的加權平均價格購買和註銷了總計1670萬股普通股。
The Company believes that from time to time the market price of the Common Shares may not reflect their underlying value. The purchase of Common Shares will increase the proportion of interest of, and be advantageous to, all remaining shareholders. In addition, any purchases by the Company will afford increased liquidity to those shareholders of the Company who may wish to dispose of their Common Shares.
本公司相信,普通股的市價可能不時不能反映其潛在價值。購買普通股將增加所有剩餘股東的權益比例,並對其有利。此外,公司的任何購買將為那些可能希望出售其普通股的公司股東提供更多的流動資金。
