Hi Ho Silver Resources Announces Late Filing of Annual Financial Statements
Vancouver, December 1, 2020 - Hi Ho Silver Resources Inc. (CSE: HHS) (OTC Pink: HHSRF) (FSE: H9) ("Hi Ho" or the "Company") announced today that it has not filed its annual financial statements for the financial year ended July 31, 2020 (the "Financial Statements") and its management's discussion and analysis relating to the Financial Statements (collectively, the "Required Filings") before the prescribed deadline of November 30, 2020 (the "Filing Deadline").
The reason for the default is that the Company's auditors have not yet begun the audit of the financial statements included in the Required Filings. The Company intends to provide all required information to the auditors shortly so that the audit can commence. The Required Filings are expected to be filed as soon as they are available and within a reasonable period, and in any event by no later than January 29, 2021.
The Company is in the process of making an application with the British Columbia Securities Commission and other applicable securities regulators under National Policy 12-203 - Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203") requesting that a management cease trade order (the "MCTO") be imposed in respect of the late filing of the Required Filings. There is no guarantee that a MCTO will be granted. If the MCTO is granted, the MCTO will prohibit the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, and possibly the directors, other officers and other insiders of the Company from trading in securities of the Company for so long as the Required Filings are not filed. The issuance of such cease trade order does not generally affect the ability of persons who are not directors, officers or other insiders of the Company to trade in the Company's securities.
The Company confirms that it will satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines under NP 12-203 by issuing bi-weekly default status reports in the form of news releases so long as it remains in default of the filing requirements set out above.
