STRACON Group Holding Inc. Rejects False Claims Made by SLC Holdings Inc.

STG · Price

Executive Summary

  • STRACON Group Holding Inc. rejects false claims by SLC Holdings Inc. and will contest SLC’s application to the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) seeking a trading halt of STRACON shares.
  • The company reaffirms that the long‑form amalgamation with STRACON Peru, completed on November 1 2025, is fully effective under both Canadian and Peruvian law; all assets, liabilities and operations of STRACON Peru have been transferred to STRACON’s Peruvian branch.
  • SLC’s litigation in Peru seeks US$26.8 million in damages but has no legal basis to reverse the merger; STRACON expects a favorable outcome before the OSC.

Key Details

  • Merger Completion: Long‑form amalgamation between STRACON Group Holding Inc. and STRACON Holdings S.A. (“STRACON Peru”) became effective on 1 Nov 2025, transferring all assets, liabilities, operations, rights and obligations to STRACON’s Peruvian branch.
  • SLC Application: On 22 Jan 2026, SLC filed an application with the OSC alleging that STRACON does not own former subsidiaries of STRACON Peru and requesting a halt to trading in STRACON shares.
  • Company Position: STRACON states the allegation is without merit; the merger is valid under both Canadian (Yukon Business Corporations Act) and Peruvian law (Peruvian Companies Law, Sections 344 & 353).
  • Litigation Background: SLC previously initiated litigation in Peru, objecting to the merger on 5 Dec 2025 (served on STRACON on 30 Dec 2025) and seeking US$26.8 million in damages. The objection is aimed at securing that claim, not challenging merger effectiveness.
  • Next Steps: The SLC application will be posted on the OSC website; STRACON will contest the filing and provide expert evidence supporting the merger’s validity.
  • Forward‑Looking Statements: STRACON expects its position to be vindicated before the OSC, though outcomes are subject to regulatory and legal risks.
