GALORE RESOURCES ANNOUNCES MANAGEMENT CEASE TRADE ORDER
Vancouver, B.C., Galore Resources Inc. (TSX-V: GRI) (OTCQB: GALOF) ("Galore" or the "Company") announces that the British Columbia Securities Commission (the "BCSC") has, in accordance with its guidelines, issued a Management Cease Trade Order ("MCTO") that prohibits, effective immediately, all trading of the securities of the Company by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. The MCTO is being issued with respect to the Company's delay in meeting the deadline for filing its annual financial statements, Management Discussion and Analysis and related CEO / CFO certifications due July 29, 2024 (the "Filings").
The Company has not been able to meet the required deadline for the Filings due to the Company's present auditor requesting that the Company engage a new auditor due to the changes in the Audit and Assurances Standards and their lack of personnel to carry out the current customer base. The Company has been actively searching for a replacement auditor, but has encountered difficulty, due to the recent changes in the Canadian Public Accounting Board ("CPAB") regulations, which has impacted the ability of auditing firms to engage new clients. The Company is in the process of engaging a suitable qualified firm who is able to conduct the required audit to complete the balance of the Filings within the time constraints allowed under National Policy 12-203 and in any event no later than September 27, 2024, at which time it will request that the MCTO be lifted by the BCSC. The Company will formally announce the change in auditor once the necessary process has been completed.
Until the MCTO is lifted, the general investing public will continue to be able to trade in the Company's listed common shares. However, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and such other directors, officers and persons as determined by the applicable regulatory authorities, will not be able to trade the Company's shares in order to comply with the alternative information guidelines set out in National Policy 12-203 - Management Cease Trade Orders for issuers who have failed to comply with a specified continuous disclosure requirement within the times prescribed by applicable securities laws.
On behalf of the Board of Directors
Michael McMillan,
President and Chief Executive Officer
