The Company is commencing the 2014 Bid because it believes that the current market price of its Shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Company's business and its future business prospects. The Company believes that the purchase of Shares for cancellation is in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders by increasing the respective proportionate shareholdings and therefore increasing the respective equity interest in the Company for all remaining shareholders.
As of February 11, 2014, the Company had 32,191,667 Shares issued and outstanding. The 2,575,166 Shares that may be purchased by the Company under the 2014 Bid represent approximately 10% of the public float of the Company. The 2014 Bid will commence on February 13, 2014 and will terminate on February 13, 2015 or at such earlier date in the event that the number of Shares sought in the 2014 Bid has been repurchased. The Company reserves the right to terminate the 2014 Bid earlier if it feels that it is appropriate to do so.
All Shares will be purchased on the open market through the facilities of the TSX-V, and payment for the Shares will be in accordance with TSX-V policies. The price paid for the Shares will be the market price at the time of purchase. Purchasing may be suspended at any time, and no purchases will be made other than by means of open market transactions during the term of the 2014 Bid. The Shares purchased by the Company will be cancelled.
The Company has engaged Haywood Securities Inc. to act as broker through which the 2014 Bid will be conducted.
Previous purchases were made by the Company under the 2013 Bid, the results of which are noted hereunder.
Results of 2013 Bid
Buccaneer acquired 392,000 Shares at an average price of $0.03 per share under the 2013 Bid which commenced on February 11, 2013 and expired on February 11, 2014.
