Business Wire
Almonty Industries Inc. (“Almonty” or the
“Company“) (TSX: AII / ASX: AII / OTCQX: ALMTF / Frankfurt:
ALI) is pleased to announce that the holders of common shares in
the capital of the Company (“Shareholders”) have
overwhelmingly voted to approve Almonty’s proposed continuance from
Canada to the State of Delaware, USA (the “US
Domestication”). A special resolution permitting the Company to
effect the US Domestication was approved by 99.96% of the votes
cast at a special meeting of Shareholders held earlier today.
Details of the voting results will be filed under the Company’s
profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
“The Domestication gives Almonty great optionality going forward
and reflects the growing importance of the United States in our
strategic positioning, particularly given its strong regulatory
framework for critical materials such as tungsten and molybdenum,”
said Lewis Black, CEO of Almonty. “It will also align our corporate
structure with the location of a significant portion of our
Shareholder base and is expected to enhance Almonty’s long-term
competitiveness in light of global geopolitical tensions and
policies in key economies shifting to encourage domestic sourcing
of critical raw materials. I want to thank shareholders for
overwhelmingly supporting this important milestone initiative for
Almonty.”
The US Domestication, if completed, will be effected through a
court-approved plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) under
Section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act. The Company
will apply for a final order of the Ontario Superior Court of
Justice (Commercial List) for approval of the Arrangement on March
4, 2025. While Shareholders were entitled to exercise rights of
dissent with respect to the Arrangement, no such dissent rights
were exercised.
Completion of the US Domestication is subject to court and
certain regulatory approvals. Notwithstanding receipt of any such
approvals, the US Domestication will be completed if and when
determined by the Company’s board of directors.
