TORONTO, Dec. 18, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Duncan Park Holdings Corporation ("Duncan Park" or the "Company") (TSXV: DPH) announced today that, further to its August 23, 2018 press release, it intends to proceed with a consolidation of its common shares on the basis of one (1) post-consolidated share for every forty (40) pre-consolidation shares.
Shareholders of the Company passed a resolution at an annual and special meeting of shareholders held today granting the board of directors of the Company the discretion to consolidate the common shares using a consolidation ratio of one (1) post-consolidated share for up to forty (40) pre-consolidation shares.
The consolidation remains subject to the receipt of exchange and other requisite approvals.
The Company currently has 126,076,108 common shares issued and outstanding. Following the consolidation, it is anticipated that the Company will have approximately 3,151,903 common shares issued and outstanding.
The exercise or conversion price and the number of common shares issuable under any of the Company's outstanding (and issuable) securities as well as the shares issuable pursuant to the Company's previously announced proposed shares for debt transaction (which remains subject to exchange approval) will be adjusted to reflect the consolidation in accordance with their respective terms.
The board of directors of the Company believes that completion of the consolidation may provide the Company with greater flexibility to arrange future growth opportunities and financings. There can be no assurance that any future opportunities will be identified or financings undertaken or completed.
The Company intends to provide shareholders with further information regarding the consolidation as applicable. The Company does not plan to change its name in conjunction with the consolidation.
