MONTREAL, May 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Elixxer Ltd. (the “Corporation” or “Elixxer”) (TSX-V: ELXR and OTC-QB: ELIXF) provides update that, further to its press release of April 27, 2020 in respect of its annual filings for the 15-month period ended December 31, 2019, it will also rely on the blanket exemption provided by the Autorité des marchés financiers and similar exemptions provided by the other members of the Canadian Securities Administrators pursuant to which issuers are granted an additional 45 days to complete their regulatory filings due to logistics and delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, in respect of:
- the requirement of Corporation to file its interim financial statements for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 (the “Interim Financial Statements”) within 60 days after the end of the interim period as required by Regulation 51-102 respecting Continuous Disclosure Obligations (“Regulation 51-102”);
- the requirement of the Corporation to file its management discussion and analysis for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 (the “MD&A”) within 60 days of the end of the interim period as required by Regulation 51-102; and
- the requirement to file certifications of the Interim Financial Statements (the “Certifications” and together with the Interim Financial Statements and MD&A, the “Interim Filings”) as required by Regulation 52-109 respecting Certification of Disclosure in Issuer’s Annual and Interim Filings.
Elixxer anticipates that its Interim Filings will be filed on or about July 14, 2020. Until such time as the Interim Filings are filed, as required by the conditions of the extension, Elixxer’s management and other insiders will be subject to a trading black-out that reflects the principles in Section 9 of Policy Statement 11-207.
Other than as previously disclosed by Elixxer in news releases, including the information herein, there are no other material developments since the date of the Corporation’s most recent filings of its interim financial statements and related management’s discussion and analysis for the period ended September 30, 2019.
Elixxer is also relying on the blanket exemptions provided by the Canadian Securities Administrators to postpone the filing of its executive compensation disclosure required by Regulation 51-102 until such time as it is filed and delivered to shareholders as part of the Corporation’s information circular relating to its next annual meeting of shareholders.
