St. James Gold Corp. Resolves Debt and Readies Trading Resumption
Reinstatement of Trading on TSX Venture Exchange
St. James Gold Corp. has recently announced the reinstatement of its common shares for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange. This favorable decision comes after the Exchange completed an extensive review of the company.
Financial Health and Debt Management
The company’s financial statements revealed a working capital deficiency of $1,905,769 as of March 31, 2025. In response, St. James Gold has initiated several measures to rectify this situation and maintain compliance with the Exchange's listing requirements.
Debt Resolution Initiatives
To address its outstanding obligations, St. James has entered into agreements with its primary short-term creditors. These agreements involve the issuance of unsecured notes that will mature 18 months after their issuance. They are anticipated to resolve approximately $1,580,052.49 of short-term debt, pending further review and acceptance by the Exchange.
Write-offs and Financial Adjustments
Additionally, the company has made the critical decision to write off $317,725 of debt which was deemed to exceed the statutory limitation period. Following these transactions and the upcoming private placement, the adjusted working capital as of March 31, 2025 is projected to be around $129,209.49.
Management Fees and Notes Issued
Among the total short-term debt resolved, a significant portion, $1,222,758, pertains to management fees owed to both current and former management personnel. Notably, agreements associated with these fees were not filed or accepted by the Exchange, leading to one aspect of this situation.
Moreover, $917,068 of the management fees exceeded the permissible limits set forth by the Exchange policies. Consequently, the notes pertaining to these fees are non-interest bearing and will require approval from the company’s disinterested shareholders prior to any payment or conversion into stock.
Future Plans and Shareholder Engagement
The company is formulating plans to seek shareholder approval for a shares-for-debt arrangement as soon as trading resumes and market conditions stabilize. St. James Gold recognizes the importance of engaging with disinterested shareholders for any such arrangements involving restricted notes.
