Any repurchases under the New NCIB Program will be made in Canada through the facilities of the TSX or alternative Canadian trading systems. Geodrill will pay the prevailing market price at the time of purchase (with a maximum purchase price of not more than 105% above the 5 day VWAP) or such other price as may be permitted by the TSX. The actual number of Ordinary Shares repurchased under the New NCIB Program and the timing of such repurchases will be at Geodrill's discretion and shall be subject to the limitations set out in the TSX Company Manual. Daily purchases on the TSX will be limited to 6,981 Ordinary Shares, representing 25% of 27,926 (the average daily trading volume on the TSX for the prior six months ending May 31, 2022), other than block purchase exceptions. The Ordinary Shares repurchased by Geodrill will be cancelled.
Management and the Board of Directors of Geodrill believes that the underlying value of the Company may not be reflected in the market price of the Ordinary Shares from time to time and that, accordingly, the purchase of Ordinary Shares will increase the proportionate interest in the Company of, and be advantageous to, all remaining shareholders of the Company.
Geodrill has been successful in establishing a leading market position in Ghana, Burkina Faso and Cote d'Ivoire. The Company also operates in other African jurisdictions including Mali and Egypt and is expanding its geographic presence in South America. With the largest fleet of multi-purpose rigs, Geodrill provides a broad selection of diverse drilling services, including exploration, delineation, underground and grade control drilling, to meet the specific needs of its clients. The Company's client mix is made up of senior mining, intermediate and junior exploration companies.
