Rivalry Provides Update on Management Cease Trade Order
Rivalry Corp., is providing this update on the status of a management cease trade order granted on May 1, 2025 (the “MCTO”) by its principal regulator, the Ontario Securities Commission (the “OSC”), under National Policy 12-203 – Management Cease Trade Orders (“NP 12-203”). On May 2, 2025, the Company announced that there would be a delay in the filing of its annual financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis and related CEO and CFO certificates for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (collectively, the “Annual Filings”), as required under applicable Canadian securities laws (the “Default Announcement”). The Company expects to complete the Annual Filings by June 30, 2025. The Company further announces that it expects to file its unaudited financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and related certifications (collectively, the “Q1 Filings”) on or prior to July 14, 2025. The OSC has advised the Company that the MCTO will remain in place until the Q1 Filings have been completed.
The Company advises that: (i) other than in respect of the Q1 Filings, there have been no material changes to the information contained in the Default Announcement; (ii) it intends to continue to comply with the alternative information guidelines of NP 12-203; and (iii) except as previously disclosed, there are no subsequent specified defaults (actual or anticipated) within the meaning of NP 12-203.
The MCTO will remain in effect until the Company is no longer in default with respect to its filing requirements and the OSC lifts the cease trade order.
