WESTERN URANIUM & VANADIUM ANNOUNCES NORMAL COURSE ISSUER BID
Western Uranium & Vanadium Corp. has implemented a normal course issuer bid to purchase up to 6,672,291 of its common shares, representing approximately 10 per cent of the company's public float, as defined under the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange.
The company may purchase shares under the NCIB over a 12-month period beginning on Dec. 19, 2025, and ending no later than Dec. 18, 2026. All shares purchased under the NCIB will be purchased on the open market through the facilities of the CSE or Canadian alternative trading systems at the prevailing market price of the shares at the time of purchase and in accordance with the policies of the CSE and applicable Canadian securities laws. All shares purchased under the NCIB will be cancelled.
The company will finance the purchases of shares under the NCIB with cash on hand. The exact timing and amount of any purchases of shares made pursuant to the NCIB will depend on market conditions and other factors. The company has no obligation to acquire any shares, and may suspend or discontinue purchases under the NCIB at any time. The actual number of shares which may be purchased under the NCIB and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by management of the company, subject to applicable laws and the rules of the CSE.
Under the NCIB, the company may purchase on the CSE up to a number of shares equal to 2 per cent of its issued and outstanding shares over any 30-trading-day period. Western will have Canaccord Genuity Corp. conduct the NCIB transactions on its behalf.
The board of directors of Western believes that the shares have been trading in a price range which does not adequately reflect the value of the company's business and prospects, and, therefore, purchasing shares for cancellation is an appropriate strategy for increasing long-term shareholder value.
The purchase of shares pursuant to the NCIB may have an effect on the anticipated use of funds described in the listed issuer financing exemption offering document dated Oct. 14, 2025, prepared for the private placement that closed as of the same date. It is anticipated that such effect (if any) will be discussed in the annual management's discussion and analysis to be prepared for the financial year ending on Dec. 31, 2025.
To the knowledge of the corporation, no director, senior officer or other insider of the corporation currently intends to sell any shares under the NCIB. The corporation has not repurchased any of its shares on the CSE or otherwise in the previous 12 months.
