Altiplano Makes Application for Management Cease Trade Order As Part of the 2025 Audit Filing Process
Altiplano Metals (TSXV: APN) has announced a potential delay in filing its required financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025. The company has applied for a Management Cease Trade Order (MCTO) as a precautionary measure, anticipating completion of the audit by August 1, 2025, with a potential extension to August 30, 2025.
The delay stems from the time needed to complete remaining audit procedures, auditor review processes, and delayed financial information from Chilean subsidiaries. If granted, the MCTO will restrict trading by the CEO and CFO but won't affect other shareholders. The company will issue bi-weekly status updates until the required filings are completed.
Altiplano Metals (TSXV: APN) ha annunciato un possibile ritardo nella presentazione dei bilanci finanziari richiesti per l'anno conclusosi il 31 marzo 2025. La società ha richiesto un Ordine di Sospensione della Negoziazione per la Direzione (MCTO) come misura precauzionale, prevedendo di completare la revisione contabile entro il 1 agosto 2025, con una possibile estensione fino al 30 agosto 2025.
Il ritardo è dovuto al tempo necessario per completare le procedure di revisione rimanenti, i processi di revisione del revisore e alle informazioni finanziarie ritardate dalle filiali cilene. Se concesso, il MCTO limiterà le negoziazioni da parte del CEO e del CFO, ma non influirà sugli altri azionisti. La società fornirà aggiornamenti sullo stato della situazione ogni due settimane fino al completamento delle presentazioni richieste.

Altiplano Metals (TSXV : APN) a annoncé un retard potentiel dans le dépôt de ses états financiers requis pour l'exercice clos le 31 mars 2025. La société a demandé une Ordonnance de Suspension de Négociation pour la Direction (MCTO) à titre préventif, anticipant la finalisation de l'audit d'ici le 1er août 2025, avec une possible prolongation jusqu'au 30 août 2025.
Ce retard est dû au temps nécessaire pour achever les procédures d'audit restantes, les processus de révision de l'auditeur et aux informations financières retardées des filiales chiliennes. Si elle est accordée, la MCTO limitera les transactions du PDG et du CFO, sans affecter les autres actionnaires. La société publiera des mises à jour bimensuelles jusqu'à ce que les dépôts requis soient complétés.
Altiplano Metals (TSXV: APN) hat eine mögliche Verzögerung bei der Einreichung der erforderlichen Finanzberichte für das zum 31. März 2025 endende Geschäftsjahr angekündigt. Das Unternehmen hat vorsorglich eine Management-Handelssperre (MCTO) beantragt und rechnet mit dem Abschluss der Prüfung bis zum 1. August 2025, mit einer möglichen Verlängerung bis zum 30. August 2025.
Die Verzögerung resultiert aus der Zeit, die für die verbleibenden Prüfungsverfahren, die Überprüfung durch den Wirtschaftsprüfer und verzögerte Finanzinformationen von chilenischen Tochtergesellschaften benötigt wird. Wird die MCTO gewährt, beschränkt sie den Handel des CEO und CFO, beeinträchtigt jedoch nicht andere Aktionäre. Das Unternehmen wird alle zwei Wochen Statusupdates veröffentlichen, bis die erforderlichen Einreichungen abgeschlossen sind.
- None.
- Delay in filing required annual financial statements beyond the July 29, 2025 deadline
- Delayed receipt of financial information from Chilean subsidiaries affecting audit completion
- Management Cease Trade Order application indicates significant filing compliance issues
Edmonton, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - July 24, 2025) - Altiplano Metals Inc. (TSXV: APN) (WKN: A2JNFG) ("Altiplano" or the "Company") today announces that it anticipates a delay in the filing of the financial statements required pursuant to Part 4 of National Instrument 51-102 Continuous Disclosure Obligations (the "Instrument"). The potential for delay arises from the Company's and its auditors' joint assessment of the time required to complete the remaining audit procedures and the auditors' review process, as well as the delayed receipt of financial information from Altiplano's Chilean subsidiaries. The Company currently anticipates that the audit will be completed by August 1, 2025. However, as the outcome of the auditor's partner-level review remains uncertain, there may be additional follow-up items that could impact the timeline. Accordingly, the Company has allowed for a potential completion date of up to August 30, 2025. As a precautionary measure, the Company is pursuing a Management Cease Trade Order ("MCTO") to provide additional time, if required. Both the Company and its auditors remain fully committed and are working diligently toward the completion and filing of the financial statements.
The Instrument requires that the Company's audited financial statements, MD&A, and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") certifications relating to the audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025 be filed by July 29, 2025. The Company and its auditor are in the process of completing the associated audit work to complete the audited consolidated financial statements. The Company expects that the audited financial statements, MD&A, and CEO and CFO certifications relating to the audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025 (collectively, the "Required Filings") will be completed and filed on or before August 30, 2025.
In connection with the anticipated delays in making the Required Filings within the time periods mandated by the Instrument, the Company has made an application under National Policy 12-203 Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203") to the Alberta Securities Commission, as principal regulator for the Company, requesting that a MCTO be issued. If granted, the MCTO will restrict all trading by the Company's CEO and CFO in securities of the Company, whether direct or indirect. The issuance of the MCTO will not affect the ability of persons who are not directors, officers or insiders of the Company to trade their securities. The MCTO will remain in effect until the Required Filings are filed or until it is revoked or varied.
The Company confirms that it intends to satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines described in NP 12-203 by issuing bi-weekly default status reports in the form of a news release until it meets the Required Filings requirement. The Company has not taken any steps towards any insolvency proceeding and the Company has no material information relating to its affairs that has not been generally disclosed.
