Titanium Transportation Group Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid


BOLTON, Ontario, May 14, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Titanium Transportation Group Inc. ("Titanium" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TTR) announces it has received approval to undertake, at the Company’s discretion, a normal course issuer bid program to purchase up to 1,839,267 of its common shares (the “NCIB”).

The Company is commencing the NCIB because it believes that from time to time the market price of its common shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Company’s business, and that the repurchase of its common shares at those times would be in the best interests of its shareholders.

As of the date hereof, the Company has 36,785,359 common shares issued and outstanding. The maximum number of common shares that may be purchased by the Company under the NCIB represents approximately 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares. The Company received acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) to commence the NCIB on May 17, 2019.

The NCIB will terminate on May 16, 2020, or on an earlier date in the event that the maximum number of common shares sought in the NCIB have been repurchased. The Company reserves the right to terminate the NCIB at any time. All common shares purchased pursuant to the NCIB will be returned to treasury and cancelled.

Purchases pursuant to the NCIB are expected to be made through the facilities of the TSXV, or such other permitted means (including through alternative trading systems in Canada), at prevailing market prices or as otherwise permitted by the policies of the TSXV.

The Company has engaged Canaccord Genuity Corp. to act as the broker through which the NCIB will be conducted.
