TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 10, 2022 / Signal Gold Inc. (“Signal Gold” or the “Company”) (TSX:SGNL) (OTCQX:SGNLF) is pleased to announce that it has completed the private placement announced on May 18, 2022 and later upsized on June 2, 2022 (the “Offering”). Pursuant to the Offering, the Company issued 3,652,375 flow-through units of the Company (the “FT Units”) at a price of $0.56 per FT Unit, and 8,070,298 units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of $0.49 per Unit. Each FT Unit consisted of one common share issued as a “flow-through share” as defined in subsection 66 (15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant issued on a non-flow-through basis (each whole common share purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Unit consisted of one common share and one-half of one Warrant. Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company (a “Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.74 until June 9, 2025. The Warrants contain an acceleration clause whereby, after the expiration of the statutory hold period, if the common shares of the Company trade at a volume weighted average price of $1.24 or more for 10 consecutive trading days, the Company will have the right to accelerate the exercise period to a period ending at least 30 days from the date that notice of such acceleration is provided to the holders of the Warrants.
“Despite a very challenging market for the industry, we were pleased to see significant institutional interest for the Company’s private placement financing even beyond the upsized amount, demonstrating the strong interest in Signal Gold’s continued growth potential. With the financing now completed, the Company is well positioned to further enhance the value of its assets going forward, especially at our Goldboro Gold Project.”
~Kevin Bullock, President and CEO, Signal Gold Inc.
The gross proceeds from the Offering will be used primarily to advance activities for development and exploration at the Goldboro Gold Project in Nova Scotia and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Each of the Units and FT Units issued under the Offering is subject to a hold period under Canadian law that will expire on October 10, 2022. The Offering remains subject to final approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange.
