Current report
Our two largest shareholders, 22NW and WWT, are able to exercise a significant amount of control over the Company due to their significant ownership of our common shares, and their interests may conflict with or differ from the interests of our other shareholders. In addition, the Amended and Restated SRP and the Support Agreement will limit the concentration of ownership of our common shares by shareholders other than 22NW and WWT, which may make it more difficult for a shareholder to acquire the Company.
Current report
As of August 5, 2024, 22NW and Aron English (collectively, the “22NW Group”) and WWT and Shaun Noll (collectively, the “WWT Group”) each owned 29.8% and 27.7% of our common shares, respectively, together beneficially owning approximately 57.5% of our common shares. So long as the 22NW Group and WWT Group and their respective affiliates continue to directly or indirectly own a significant amount of our common shares, they will be able to exercise a significant level of control over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors, amendments to our amended and restated articles of amalgamation, and approval of significant corporate transactions, barring any requirement for such shareholder to recuse itself from any such vote pursuant to applicable securities law, corporate law or the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchanges. Further, Aron English and Shaun Noll, who serve as the investment manager and Managing Member of the 22NW Group and WWT Group, respectively, also serve as directors on the Company’s Board of Directors. This control could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of the Company or changes in management, and would make the approval of certain transactions difficult or impossible without the support of these shareholders.
Current report
Since the 22NW Group and WWT Group each exercise a significant amount of control over the Company due to their significant ownership of our common shares, if the 22NW Group and WWT Group were to disagree about key decisions with respect to the Company we may not be able to effectively address challenges facing our business, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Current report
In addition, the Board has adopted the Amended and Restated SRP in order to help ensure that all shareholders of the Company are treated fairly and equally in connection with any unsolicited take-over bid or other acquisition of control of the Company. The Amended and Restated SRP may discourage, delay, or prevent a change of control or acquisition of the Company, even if such action may be considered beneficial by some shareholders, and could limit the price that investors would be willing to pay in the future for the Company’s common shares. The Amended and Restated SRP is currently effective but is subject to ratification by shareholders at the SRP Meeting to be held later this year. If ratified, the Amended and Restated SRP may prevent any current or prospective shareholder from obtaining a number of common shares that would allow it to exercise a similar level of control or influence over the Company as the 22NW Group and WWT Group currently have.
Current report
The repurchase and cancellation of our Debentures in 2024 may not enhance shareholder value and could adversely affect the price or liquidity of the Debentures.
Current report
On March 22, 2024, the Company completed the Issuer Bid in which the Company repurchased for cancellation C$4.7 million of the principal balance of the January Debentures and C$5.8 million of the principal balance of the December Debentures.
Current report
On August 2, 2024, the Company and 22NW closed the Debenture Repurchase in which the Company purchased for cancellation an aggregate of C$18,915,000 principal amount of the January Debentures and C$13,638,000 principal amount of the December Debentures. Following the Issuer Bid and Debenture Repurchase, C$16,642,000 principal amount of the January Debentures and C$15,587,000 principal amount of the December Debentures remain outstanding.
Current report
The Issuer Bid and Debenture Repurchase decreased the number of outstanding Debentures, and therefore could decrease their liquidity in the market of the Debentures and increase the volatility of the prices at which they trade. The Debenture Repurchase may also cause the prices of the Debentures to differ from what they would be in the absence of the Debenture Repurchase. While the Debenture Repurchase decreased our indebtedness, it also decreased our cash reserves, which could impact our ability to operate and develop our business. There can be no assurance the Debenture Repurchase will ultimately enhance shareholder value.
