NexGold and Signal Gold Announce Merger to Create one of Canada’s Most Advanced Near-Term Gold Developers with a Combined 4.7 million Gold Ounces of Measured and Indicated Resources and a Plan to Achieve 200,000+ ounces of Annual Production

 

 

 

 

 

Concurrent $11.5 Million Private Placement Equity Financing and Proposed Debt Restructuring

 

NexGold Mining Corp. (TSX-V: NEXG) (OTCQX: NXGCF) and Signal Gold Inc. (TSX: SGNL) (OTCQB: SGNLF) are pleased to announce that they have entered into a definitive arrangement agreement dated October 9, 2024 to combine the two companies and create a top near-term gold developer advancing NexGold’s Goliath Gold Complex Project in Northern Ontario and Signal’s Goldboro Gold Project in the historic Goldboro Gold District in Nova Scotia. All dollar references in this release are to Canadian dollars, unless otherwise stated.

 

Transaction Highlights:

  • Two Canadian, near-term development projects, with Environmental Assessment Approvals in place, and a plan to attain production of over 200,000 ounces per year.
  • Combined 4.7 million gold ounces of Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources and 1.3 million gold ounces of Inferred Mineral Resources between both companies*.
  • Significant growth potential at both Projects, across a combined property package of more than 60,000 hectares (600 km2) with potential along strike, at depth, and through new discoveries, including recent high-grade drill results at the western extension of the Goldboro Deposit.
  • Concurrent non-brokered private placement financing for up to $11.5 million with NexGold Board and Management to subscribe for up to $1.0 million in the financing. In addition, current greater than 10% NexGold shareholder, Frank Giustra, will be participating in a meaningful way.
  • Elimination of single asset risk for both Signal and NexGold, as both Projects are in advanced stages of permitting, with the completion of project permits expected in 2025. The Goliath Project has Federal Environmental Assessment Approval and the Goldboro Project has Provincial Environmental Assessment Approval.
  • Combined team brings complementary skills and experience required for successful development, including geology, engineering, finance and capital markets, governance and sustainability.
  • Robust Financial Position – The concurrent financing, proposed debt restructuring, and available cash resources provide significant funding to advance both projects towards a construction decision while deleveraging the combined entity.
  • Value Creation – Operational and administrative synergies and savings with workflow sequencing and phased development approach for the two projects have the potential to unlock significantly more value for NexGold and Signal shareholders than could be realized on a standalone basis.
  • Growth and consolidation strategy – The combined company will focus on showing growth in the Goldboro and Goliath Districts through drilling while assessing further opportunities for corporate growth.
  • Restructured Credit Facility with Nebari to deleverage combined entity:
    • It is proposed that Signal’s outstanding credit facility of approximately US$20.4 million with Nebari and NexGold’s US$6.0 million facility with Extract Capital will be repaid.
    • NexGold is working to arrange a new US$12 million secured credit facility with Nebari over a term of 30 months and the issuance of US$4.0 million of NexGold shares, with a one (1) year right to place.
    • The arrangement would also grant a 0.6% NSR on the Goldboro Project to Nebari for US$6 million with a 100% buy-back right at the Company’s option for the first 30 months.

Morgan Lekstrom, President of NexGold, commented: “This will be a transformative transaction that combines two near-term buildable projects in Canada on a potential path to a production profile of over 200,000 ounces per year. This reflects the execution of NexGold’s strategy of targeting high-value gold projects with potential production of over 100,000 ounces and a capital expenditure of under $400 million. I am proud to have led this acquisition and worked closely with Kevin, Orin, Jeremy, and the entire team to execute on this vision of combining these two companies. With the Transaction, we have significantly de-risked the combined company as it will no longer be a single asset company but rather a company with a pipeline of low-cost, low risk, high return mine development and expansion projects in Canada. Not only do we have a path to construction on both Projects when project financing is obtained, but both historic gold districts have demonstrated tremendous expandability and upside potential that could contribute to larger, longer-life Projects.”

 

Kevin Bullock, President and CEO of Signal, commented: “I believe that the Transaction brings together two cornerstone Canadian gold projects and presents an exciting opportunity to create a leading gold development company in Canada during a time of increasing gold prices. The combined company will be led by an experienced and skilled leadership team and will benefit from a strong balance sheet. I am excited to work towards unlocking significant value for the shareholders of NexGold after the completion of this transformative business combination.”

 

Jeremy Wyeth, CEO of NexGold, commented: “The combination of the Goliath and Goldboro Projects and the experience and skills of the combined team positions the Company uniquely with two of the next few gold mines to be built in Canada, as both projects are already significantly advanced in permitting. The synergies in the teams allows the new NexGold executive to specifically focus on core areas of expertise and competence as we progress towards a construction decision on one of our assets and continue to advance project financing discussions. We are well-positioned to become the next mid-tier gold producer in Canada.”

Concurrent Financing

 

In connection with the Transaction, each of Signal and NexGold will conduct a concurrent non-brokered private placement for the sale of units of Signal comprised of one common share and one-half of one warrant and units of NexGold comprised of one flow-through common share and one-half of one warrant, issued on a non-flow-thorough basis, for total gross proceeds of up to C$11,500,000. Each of Signal and NexGold will have the option to sell up to an additional 50% of the NFT Units and FT Units.

 

Hard Dollar Financing

 

The NFT Units will be issued by Signal at a price of C$0.08705 per NFT Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$6,500,000. Each NFT Unit Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Signal Share at a price of $0.11818 for a period of 24 months after the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined). At the effective time of the Transaction, the Signal Shares underlying the NFT Units will be exchanged pursuant to the Transaction for NEXG Shares at the Exchange Ratio, and the NFT Unit Warrants will be adjusted in accordance with their terms such that the NFT Unit Warrants will be exercisable to acquire NEXG Shares based on the Exchange Ratio.

 

Signal will offer up to 74,669,730 NFT Units at a price of C$0.08705 per NFT Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$6,500,000. If the Option is fully exercised, an additional 37,334,865 NFT Units will be issued, for additional gross proceeds of C$3,250,000. The net proceeds of the Hard Dollar Financing are expected to be used by the combined company to fund the retirement of certain debt, the exploration and advancement of the Goliath Project and Goldboro Project and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

The Hard Dollar Financing is being conducted in all of the provinces and territories of Canada, and/or in jurisdictions other than Canada, including the United States, pursuant to applicable exemptions from the prospectus and/or registration requirements.

 

FT Financing

 

The FT Units will be issued by NexGold at a price of $0.80 per FT Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$5,000,000 million. If the Option is fully exercised, an additional 3,125,000 FT Units will be issued for additional gross proceeds of C$2,500,000. The FT Shares will be issued as “flow-through shares” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

 

Each FT Unit Warrants will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one NEXG Share at a price of C$1.05 for a period of 24 months following the date of issuance. Each FT Unit Warrant will be exercisable by the holder to acquire one common share of NexGold at a price of C$1.05 for a period of two years following the Closing Date.

 

The FT Financing is being conducted in all of the provinces and territories of Canada pursuant to applicable prospectus exemptions. The NEGX Shares to be issued in connection with the FT Financing will be subject to a statutory four-month and one day hold period from the closing date.

 

The securities to be offered in the Concurrent Financing have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

 

An amount equal to the gross proceeds from the issuances of the FT Shares will be used to fund advancement of NexGold’s projects. NexGold will, in a timely and prescribed manner and form, incur expenses which will: (i) constitute “Canadian exploration expenses,” and (ii) constitute “flow-through mining expenditures,” (as all such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)), in an amount equal to the gross amount raised pursuant to the sale of FT Shares. NexGold will, in a timely and prescribed manner and form, renounce the Canadian exploration expenses (on a pro rata basis) to each subscriber with an effective date of no later than December 31, 2024, in accordance with the Income Tax Act (Canada), as applicable, all in accordance with the terms of the subscription and renunciation agreements to be entered into by NexGold and the subscribers in the FT Financing.

 

Completion of the Concurrent Financing is subject to TSX, TSXV and other necessary regulatory approvals, including disinterested shareholder approval of the Hard Dollar Financing by Signal shareholders. Closing of the Concurrent Financing is expected to occur two days prior to the closing of the Transaction in early December 2024 or such other date or dates as Signal and NexGold may agree in writing. Toronto Stock Exchange and shareholder approval is required for the completion of the Signal Offering.

 

It is anticipated that the NexGold Board and Management will subscribe for up to $1.0 million in the Concurrent Financing. In addition, current greater than 10% NexGold shareholder, Frank Giustra, will be participating in a meaningful way. By virtue of their participation, the Concurrent Financing would constitute a “related party transaction” under applicable Canadian securities laws. NexGold expects to file a material change report including details with respect to the related party transaction less than 21 days prior to the closing of the Concurrent Financing, which NexGold deems reasonable in the circumstances so as to be able to avail itself of potential financing opportunities and complete the Concurrent Financing in an expeditious manner. As the related party transaction will not exceed specified limits and will constitute a distribution of securities for cash, it is expected that neither a formal valuation nor minority shareholder approval will be required in connection with the Concurrent Financing, and that NexGold will be entitled to rely on applicable exemptions therefrom under applicable Canadian securities laws.

 

Debt Restructuring

 

NexGold has agreed to certain indicative terms with Nebari to complete a restructuring of the two entities’ respective debt facilities, which will significantly reduce the debt profile of the combined entity going forward. It is proposed that Signal’s outstanding credit facility of approximately US$20.4 million with Nebari and NexGold’s US$6.0 million facility with Extract Capital will be repaid. A new US$12.0 million facility with Nebari is contemplated that will have a 30-month term with an interest rate of 11.4%, payable monthly in arrears and secured against both the Goliath and Goldboro Projects. Existing warrants associated with the Nebari facility with Signal will be cancelled, and 3,160,602 new warrants will be issued to Nebari with an exercise price of $1.00 per NEXG Share with a term of 30 months. In addition, the arrangement contemplates the granting of a 0.6% NSR on the Goldboro Project to Nebari for US$6.0 million, which includes a 100% buy-back right for the first 30 months at the Company’s option. If the royalty is not repurchased during the 30-month period, then the royalty rate shall increase to 2.0%.

 

The proposed new loan and royalty, together with a proposed US$4.0 million equity placement with Nebari and certain proceeds from the Hard Dollar Financing, will be used to retire the existing debt. The Debt Restructuring is subject to reaching a binding agreement with Nebari and agreements with Extract Capital and Sprott Private Resource Streaming and Royalty (B) Corp. with respect to the early repayment and subordination of certain existing security.
