VANCOUVER, April 23, 2019 /CNW/ - Maverix Metals Inc.
(the "Company" or "Maverix") (TSX-V: MMX) is proposing a
consolidation of its issued and outstanding common shares (the
"Common Shares") on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation Common
Share for every two (2) pre-consolidation Common Shares (the
"Consolidation").
"A consolidation would allow Maverix to pursue a dual listing on
a U.S. stock exchange, which is consistent with our strategy of
expanding our potential shareholder base", said President and CEO
Dan O'Flaherty. "This would be an
exciting step in the growth of the Company."
The Company currently has 215,896,666 issued and outstanding
Common Shares. If approved at the Company's upcoming Annual General
and Special Meeting of Shareholders (the "AGM"), the Consolidation
would reduce the issued and outstanding Common Shares to
approximately 107,948,333 Common Shares. The exercise or conversion
price of outstanding stock options and warrants would be
proportionately adjusted based on the consolidation ratio. The
proposed Consolidation is also subject to approval by the TSX
Venture Exchange.
Full details regarding the proposed Consolidation are included
in the information circular mailed on April
23, 2019 to all Maverix shareholders of record as of
April 4, 2019 and posted on
www.sedar.com in connection with the Company's AGM, which is
scheduled to be held on Tuesday, May 14,
2019. No assurances can be given that the Company will be
successful in achieving a listing of its securities on a U.S.
exchange.
