Kootenay Update on Filing Annual Financial Statements

2020-04-28 / @newswire

 

VANCOUVER, April 28, 2020 /CNW/ - Kootenay Silver Inc.  (TSXV: KTN) (the "Company" or "Kootenay") reports an update on the status of the filing of its audited annual financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis for the financial year ended December 31, 2019 (collectively, the "Annual Filings"), which are required to be filed by April 29, 2020 under National Instrument 51-102 Continuous Disclosure Obligations.

On March 23, 2020, the Canadian Securities Administrators published substantively harmonized temporary exemptions from certain regulatory filing requirements that provide issuers with a 45-day filing extension for filings required on or before June 1, 2020 to allow issuers the time needed to focus on the many other business and financial reporting implications of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company will rely on this exemption with respect to the Annual Filings in accordance with BC Instrument 51-515 -Temporary Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance Requirements ("BCI 51-515").

The Company expects to file the Annual Filings before the extension deadline required by the Canadian Securities Administrators and anticipates no further delays to future required filings. Until the Annual Filings are filed, management and other insiders of the Company continue to be subject to a trading black-out policy that reflects the principles in section 9 of National Policy 11-207 - Failure-to-File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions.

Kootenay is well financed with $6.7 million in cash, no debt and possesses quality silver assets that will continue to strongly position the Company once the markets emerge from this crisis. The Company confirms that other than as previously disclosed by the Company, there have been no material business developments since the date of the Company's most recent filing of its interim Financial Statements and Management Discussion and Analysis.
