VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 31, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hunter Technology Corp. (TSX- V: HOC; OTCQB: HOILF; WKN: A2QEYH, FSE: RWPM, ISIN: CA4457371090) (“Hunter” or the “Company”) is providing a bi-weekly default status update in accordance with its filing obligations under National Policy 12-203 – Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203").
As previously announced in the Company’s press releases dated May 4, 2022 and May 17, 2022, Hunter is subject to a management cease trade order ("MCTO") issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission dated May 3, 2022. The MCTO prohibits the directors and executive officers of the Company from trading in or acquiring securities of the Company until two full business days after the Company files its audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the related management’s discussion and analysis and certifications (collectively, the “Annual Filings”). The MCTO does not affect the ability of investors who are not insiders to trade in the securities of the Company.
The Company also announces that the filing of its unaudited interim financial statements, management's discussion and analysis and related certifications for the three-months ended March 31, 2022 (the “Interim Filings”, and together with the Annual Filings, the "Required Documents"), will be delayed beyond the filing deadline of May 30, 2022 as a result of the delay in completing the Annual Filings. The Company expects the Interim Filings to be filed concurrently with the Annual Filings. The MCTO will remain in effect until two (2) full business days following the receipt by the British Columbia Securities Commission of all filings the Company is required to make under Canadian securities law (including the Required Documents).
The Company advises that aside from the British Columbia Securities Commission granting the MCTO: (i) there have been no material changes to the information contained in the Company's news releases dated May 4, 2022 and May 17, 2022; (ii) it intends to continue to comply with the alternative information guidelines of NP 12-203; (iii) except as previously disclosed, there are no subsequent specified defaults (actual or anticipated) within the meaning of NP 12-203; and (iv) there is no other material information concerning the affairs of the Company that has not been generally disclosed.
