Greenfields Petroleum Corporation Announces Update on the Filing of 2019 Year-End and 2020 First Quarter Results
July 02 2020 - 4:00PM
Greenfields Petroleum Corporation (the "
Company"
or "
Greenfields") (TSX VENTURE: GNF), a production
focused company with operating assets in Azerbaijan, provides an
update with respect to the management cease trade order (the
"MCTO") issued by the Alberta Securities Commission on June 16,
2020. The MCTO was issued in connection with the filing of its
annual financial statements, management's discussion and analysis,
statement of reserves data required by National Instrument 51-101 -
Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities and related
certifications for the financial year ended December 31, 2019
(collectively the “Annual Filings”). The MCTO does not affect the
ability of shareholders who are not insiders of the Company to
trade their securities.
The Company is working on the steps required to
complete the Annual Filings and expects to file the Annual Filings
by July 15, 2020. The financial audit and reserves reporting
processes are taking longer than usual due to the continued impact
of COVID-19. In particular, delay has resulted from travel
restrictions imposed by the Cabinet of Ministers of the Azerbaijan
Republic, including the suspension of all flights and other
passenger traffic to and from Azerbaijan until August 1, 2020.
The Company is also working on the steps
required to complete the interim financial statements, management's
discussion and analysis and related officer certifications for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2020 (the “Interim Filings”) and
expects to file the Interim Filings by the extended filing deadline
of July 16, 2020.
The Company is providing this status update in
accordance with the provisions of the Alternative Information
Guidelines set out in National Policy 12-203 Management Cease Trade
Orders.
The Company confirms as of the date of this news
release that there has been no material change in the information
contained in the announcement issued on June 18, 2020 and there is
no other material information concerning the affairs of the Company
that has not been generally disclosed.
