LaFleur Announces Closing of Bought Deal Equity Offerings for Gross Proceeds of C$11 Million

Mill Restart Financing Closes Amidst Steady Downtrend; Dilution Weighs on Share Price

Executive Summary
  • LaFleur Minerals announced the closing of a bought deal equity offering, raising aggregate gross proceeds of C$11,015,760.
  • The capital raise comprises 10,532,000 public units at C$0.50/unit, 6,199,000 flow-through charity units at C$0.68/unit, and 2,692,000 private flow-through units at C$0.57/unit.
  • Each unit includes one common share and one warrant exercisable at C$0.75/share until June 2029.
  • Net proceeds will fund the commissioning and restart of the Beacon Gold Mine, exploration at the Swanson Gold Project, and general working capital.
  • The closing follows an initial May 26, 2026 announcement that was progressively upsized from C$8M to C$10M, and finally to C$11M with the partial exercise of the over-allotment option.
Material Impact
  • The financing provides essential runway to advance the company's transition from exploration to production, directly supporting the mill restart and Swanson exploration programs.
  • The issuance of approximately 19.42M new units represents significant dilution (~18-20% of current shares outstanding) at a blended price well below the current market price of $0.37.
  • The market typically prices in bought deals prior to closing; the stock declined from $0.45 in late May to $0.37 post-closing, indicating the dilution and offering discount were already reflected in the price.
  • No new strategic partnerships, production milestones, or valuation re-ratings are attached to this capital raise.
