IBC Advanced Alloys Announces Delay in Filing Annual Financial Statements
FRANKLIN, IN (October 29, 2018) – IBC Advanced Alloys Corp. (“IBC” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: IB; OTCQB: IAALF) announces that the filing of its audited annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 and its management’s discussion and analysis relating to the Annual Financial Statements (collectively, the “Required Filings”) will be delayed beyond the filing deadline of October 29, 2018. The Company expects to file the Required Filings on or before Friday, November 9, 2018.
The Company’s late filing of the Required Filings is due to delays resulting from determining the proper presentation of the Company’s convertible debt. The Company’s management is diligently working through the various issues in order to expedite the finalization of the Required Filings.
As a result of this delay, the Company has applied to the British Columbia Securities Commission and other relevant securities regulatory authorities under applicable securities legislation for the issuance of a management and insider cease trade order (“MCTO”) in connection with the anticipated filing delay. If an MCTO is granted, it will prohibit the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and possibly the directors and other insiders of the Company, from trading in securities of the Company for so long as the Required Filings have not been completed.
The issuance of an MCTO would generally not affect the ability of persons who are not, or who have not been, directors, officers or other insiders of the Company to trade in the Company’s securities.
In the event a MCTO is granted, the Company intends to satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines under National Policy 12-203 – Management Cease Trade Orders by issuing biweekly default status reports in the form of news releases so long as it remains in default of the filing requirements set out above.
