Target Capital Inc. (TSX:TCI)

CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA, September 28, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Target Capital Inc. d.b.a. CBi2 Capital (“CBi2” or the “Company”) provides an update on the filing of its audited financial statements and management discussion and analysis for the financial year ended March 31, 2020 (the “Annual Filings”) and unaudited financial statements and management discussion and analysis for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 (the “Interim Filings”).
As an update to the news releases issued on August 6, 2020, August 28, 2020 and September 15, 2020 where the Company announced it would be relying on the exemption provided in Alberta Securities Commission Blanket Order 51-519 and similar exemptions provided by the other Canadian securities regulators which provide for an extension of up to 45 days from the original filing date (July 29, 2020) for the Company’s Annual Filings, due to Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and its unprecedented impact on the general business environment in the Province of Alberta and worldwide, the Company is working with its auditors and to complete the preparation of the Annual Filings no later than October 30, 2020.

As the anticipated filing date for the Annual Filings is outside the 45 day “extension period” associated with the blanket relief, the Alberta Securities Commission, as principal regulator for the Company, has granted a management cease trade order under National Policy 12-203 – Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203") throughout the duration of the default in respect of the Annual Filings.

The management cease trade order will generally not affect the ability of persons who are not or have not been management of the Company to trade in its 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 for so long as it remains in default of the above-noted filing requirements.
The Company is also working on the steps required to complete the Interim Filings and expects to file the Interim Filings by the extended filing deadline of October 15, 2020, relying on the exemption provided in Alberta Securities Commission Blanket Order 51-519 and similar exemptions provided by the other Canadian securities regulators which provide for an extension of up to 45 days from the original filing date (August 31, 2020).
Other than as previously disclosed by the Company or disclosed in this press release, the Company confirms that there have been no material business developments since the filing of the unaudited interim quarterly financial statements for the period ending December 31, 2019.
The Company acknowledges that management and other insiders are subject to an insider trading black-out policy, that reflects the principles in section 9 of National Policy 11-207, Failure-to-File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions, until the second trading day after the Annual Filings and Interim Filings have been disclosed.
