Majestic Gold Corp. Responds to Shareholder Requisition and Announces Date of Annual General Meeting

Majestic faces a governance dispute over dilutive financing that clouds its Q1 production recovery and $50M capital raise.

Executive Summary
  • Majestic Gold Corp. has formally rejected a shareholder requisition from Mr. Fan Zhong Kong, deeming it invalid under the BC Business Corporations Act for lacking director nominees and sufficient detail.
  • Mr. Kong has filed a lawsuit in the B.C. Supreme Court seeking an injunction to halt the May 21, 2026 non-brokered private placement of up to CAD$50M and to remove four directors.
  • The company intends to contest the lawsuit vigorously.
  • The Annual General Meeting of Shareholders is officially scheduled for July 31, 2026, with a management information circular to be distributed prior to the event.
Material Impact
  • The June 15 release is a direct, expected response to the June 2 shareholder objection. It escalates the governance dispute into active litigation but does not introduce new operational or financial data.
  • The core material issue remains the CAD$50M dilutive private placement at CAD$0.13/share. At this price, the company values itself at ~57% of its cash balance, effectively paying a premium for cash while issuing 36.9% more shares.
  • The lawsuit introduces regulatory and legal risk that could delay or block the financing, impacting stated growth plans.
  • The market has already reacted: the stock declined from ~$0.14 in late May to $0.12, reflecting the dilution concern and governance friction. This is a Routine - Negative development as the dispute was telegraphed and the company's response is standard legal posturing.
