Teck Announces Sale of Fort Hills Interest

27.10.2022  |  GlobeNewswire

VANCOUVER, Oct. 26, 2022 - Teck Resources Ltd. (TSX: TECK.A and TECK.B, NYSE: TECK) ("Teck") announced today it has agreed to sell its 21.3% interest in the Fort Hills Energy Limited Partnership ("Fort Hills") and certain associated downstream assets to Suncor Energy Inc. ("Suncor") for gross proceeds of approximately $1 billion in cash, subject to customary closing adjustments reflecting a November 1, 2022 effective date. The transaction value is consistent with the current outlook for the Fort Hills business reflected in the most recent in-depth review of Fort Hills conducted by Suncor and the resulting long-range plan for the project.

"This transaction advances our strategy of pursuing industry leading copper growth and rebalancing our portfolio of high-quality assets to low carbon metals," said Jonathan Price, CEO. "We will review the use of proceeds in accordance with our capital allocation framework early in 2023."

Closing of the transaction is subject to customary conditions including receipt of relevant regulatory approvals, and is expected to occur in the first quarter of 2023.

As a result of the transaction, we expect to record an after-tax, non-cash impairment charge of approximately $950 million in the third quarter of 2022.

RBC Capital Markets and J.P. Morgan Securities Canada have acted as financial advisors to Teck in connection with this transaction.
