Urbana Corporation – Renewal of Normal Course Issuer Bid
05 September 2024 - 3:00PM
Urbana Corporation (“Urbana”) (TSX & CSE: URB & URB.A)
announced today that the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) has
accepted its notice of intention to conduct a normal course issuer
bid to enable it to purchase up to 3,107,404 of its non-voting
Class A shares (the “Class A Shares”), representing 10% of the
public float, pursuant to TSX rules (the “Notice”).
Purchases under the bid may commence on
September 9, 2024, and will terminate on the earlier of September
8, 2025, the date Urbana completes its purchases pursuant to the
notice of intention to make a normal course issuer bid filed with
the TSX, and the date of notice by Urbana of termination of the
bid.
Purchases will be made on the open market
through the facilities of TSX, the Canadian Securities Exchange or
alternative Canadian trading systems, or by such other means as may
be permitted by the applicable securities regulator. Caldwell
Securities Ltd. will make all purchases pursuant to the bid on
behalf of Urbana. The price that Urbana will pay for any such
shares will be the market price of such shares at the time of
acquisition. Class A Shares purchased under the bid will be
cancelled. Urbana will not purchase on any given day, in the
aggregate, more than 4,767 Class A Shares (the “Daily Limit”)
through the TSX, being 25% of the average daily volume for the most
recently completed six months prior to the submission of the
Notice, which is 19,070 shares (the “ADTV”), calculated in
accordance with the TSX rules. Notwithstanding the above-mentioned
Daily Limit, Urbana may make one block purchase per calendar week
through the TSX that exceeds the Daily Limit in accordance with TSX
rules. A block purchase under TSX rules means a purchase that (a)
has a total purchase price of at least $200,000, (b) is at least
5,000 shares and has a total purchase price of at least $50,000, or
(c) is at least 20 board lots and at least 150% of the ADTV.
Under a previous notice of intention to conduct
a normal course issuer bid, Urbana sought and received approval
from the TSX to purchase up to 3,107,298, Class A Shares for the
period of September 7, 2023 to September 6, 2024. As of August 30,
2024, Urbana has purchased no Class A shares under that bid. As of
August 30, 2024, the issued and outstanding number of Class A
shares is 31,395,100 shares and the public float of the Class A
shares is 31,074,040 shares.
Urbana believes that the market price of its
Class A Shares at times may be attractive and that the purchase of
Class A Shares from time to time would be an appropriate use of
corporate funds in light of potential benefits to the remaining
shareholders.
