TORONTO, Aug. 29,
2023 /CNW/ - NamSys Inc. (TSX-V:
CTZ) announced today that the TSX Venture Exchange (the
"Exchange") has accepted a notice filed by NamSys Inc.
(the "Company") of its intention to make a Normal
Course Issuer Bid (the "Bid") to be transacted through
the facilities of the Exchange.
The notice provides that the Company may, during the 12-month
period commencing August 30, 2023 and
ending August 30, 2024, purchase up
to 1,364,316 Common Shares ("Shares"), being 5% of the total
number of Shares outstanding as at August
24, 2023 and approximately 14.13% of the Company's Public
Float (as that term is defined in the policies of the Exchange).
The price which the Company will pay for any such Shares will be
the prevailing market price at the time of acquisition. The actual
number of Shares which may be purchased pursuant to the Bid and the
timing of any such purchases will be determined by management of
the Company. Purchases under the Bid will be made from time to time
by Canaccord Genuity Corp. on behalf of the Company. The timing of
purchases will be determined by management of the Company.
All Share purchases will be made on the open market through the
facilities of the Exchange and will be purchased for cancellation.
The funding for any purchase pursuant to the Bid will be financed
out of the working capital of the Company.
The Board of Directors believes the current market value of its
Shares does not reflect their underlying value. As a result,
depending upon future price movements and other factors, the Board
believes that the Shares may represent an attractive investment to
the Company and that the purchase of the Shares would be an
appropriate use of corporate funds and in the best interests of the
Company and its shareholders. Furthermore, the purchases are
expected to benefit all persons who continue to hold Shares by
increasing their proportionate share interest in the Company when
the repurchased Shares are cancelled.
A copy of the Company's notice filed with the Exchange may be
obtained, by any shareholder without charge, by contacting the
Company's Chief Operating Officer.
