Silver Storm Mining Ltd. Provides Update on MCTO Progress
Update on MCTO Status by Silver Storm Mining Ltd.
Silver Storm Mining Ltd. (“Silver Storm” or the "Company") (TSX.V: SVRS | OTCQB: SVRSF | FSE: SVR) has shared crucial insights regarding its management cease trade order (MCTO). This update is intended to keep stakeholders informed about the status of the MCTO, issued by the relevant securities authority as the Company continues to navigate a complex financial environment.
Understanding the Management Cease Trade Order
The MCTO was initiated on July 30, 2024, due to Silver Storm's inability to meet the filing deadline for its annual financial documents. These documents include management’s discussion and analysis as well as required officer certifications for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024. The official filing deadline was set for July 29, 2024.
Impact of Delayed Financial Reporting
Due to this delay, the Company was also unable to file its unaudited interim financial statements for the quarter ending June 30, 2024. This set of reports is collectively referred to as the Required Documents. According to National Instrument 51-102, these interim filings should have been submitted by August 29, 2024.
As previously communicated, the delays stem from various complications linked to the acquisition of the La Parrilla assets. The accounting processes are still underway. On September 27, 2024, the British Columbia Securities Commission (BCSC) granted an extension, allowing until October 11, 2024, for the Company to finalize its Annual Filings. Once completed, the Interim Filings will follow suit and are expected to be submitted within five business days.
Regulatory Compliance and Status Reporting
The MCTO remains in effect until two full business days after the BCSC receives all required filings from the Company, including the necessary documents under the British Columbia securities laws. However, it’s important to note that this order does not hinder other shareholders from trading the Company's securities.
Maintaining Transparency and Communication
Silver Storm confirms that no new material changes have occurred since the last update. The Company continues to adhere to the Alternative Information Guidelines outlined in NP 12-203. This involves issuing regular bi-weekly updates in the form of news releases for as long as it remains in default regarding its Required Documents.
Additionally, the Company reassures its stakeholders that there are no ongoing insolvency proceedings against it. Thus far, it has not encountered any anticipated defaults related to unresolved filings.
