Xtra-Gold Announces 2019 Normal Course Issuer Bid and Results of 2018 Bid

08.02.2019  |  Newsfile

Toronto, February 8, 2019 - Xtra-Gold Resources Corp. (TSX: XTG) (OTCQB: XTGRF) ("Xtra- Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce today that the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") has accepted a noticed filed by the Company of its intention to renew its prior normal course issuer bid for a further one year period. The Company intends to proceed with a normal course issuer bid to purchase up to 4,000,000 common shares of the Company (the "2019 Bid").

The Company is commencing the 2019 Bid because it believes that the current market price of its common shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Company's business and its future business prospects. The Company believes that the purchase of common shares for cancellation is in the best interests of the Company's shareholders by increasing the respective proportionate shareholdings and therefore increasing the respective equity interest in the Company for all remaining shareholders.

As of January 31, 2019 the Company has 46,245,917 common shares issued and outstanding. The 4,000,000 common shares that may be purchased by the Company under the 2019 Bid represent approximately 10% of the public float (42,400,062 as of January 31, 2019) of the Company. The 2019 Bid will commence on February 13, 2019 and will terminate on February 12, 2020 or at such earlier date in the event that the number of shares sought in the 2019 Bid has been repurchased. The Company reserves the right to terminate the 2019 Bid earlier if it feels that it is appropriate to do so.

All shares will be purchased on the open market through the facilities of the TSX, and payment for the common shares will be in accordance with TSX policies. The price paid for the common shares will be the market price at the time of purchase. Purchasing may be suspended at any time, and no purchases will be made other than by means of open market transactions during the term of the 2019 Bid.

The maximum number of common shares that may be purchased on a daily basis is 2,837 common shares representing 25% of the average daily trading volume for the last six calendar months, except where purchases are made in accordance with "block purchases" exemptions under applicable TSX policies. The common shares purchased by the Company will be cancelled.

The Company has engaged Haywood Securities Inc. to act as broker through which the 2019 Bid will be conducted.

Previous purchases were made by the Company under a prior normal course issuer bid (the "2018 Bid"), the results of which are noted hereunder.

Results of 2018 Bid

Pursuant to a previous notice of intention to conduct a normal course issuer bid, under which Company sought and received approval from the TSX to purchase up to 4,000,000 Common Shares for the period of January 11, 2018 to January 10, 2019, the Company has purchased, as of November 30, 2018, 1,536,500 Common Shares on the open market at an average purchase price of $0.235 per share. As of January 31, 2019, the issued and outstanding number of Common Shares is 46,245,917 shares and the public float of the Common share is 42,400,062 shares.
