30 Gennaio 2025 - 12:00AM
North American Construction Group Ltd. (“
NACG” or
“the
Company”) (TSX:NOA/NYSE:NOA) announced today
that it has delivered notice to the holders of the Company’s
outstanding 5.5% convertible unsecured subordinated debentures due
June 30, 2028 (the “
Debentures”) that pursuant to
Section 4.3 of the trust indenture governing the Debentures dated
June 1, 2021 (the “
Trust Indenture”), the Company
will, effective February 28, 2025 (the “
Redemption
Date”), redeem all issued and outstanding Debentures, plus
accrued interest thereon.
In accordance with the Trust Indenture, holders
of these Debentures may convert the outstanding Debentures into
common shares of the Company at a price of $24.23 per share, which
is at a discount to the closing price of NACG’s common shares of
$28.45 per share on January 29, 2025, the date of this press
release.
The Company encourages individual holders of
Debentures (“Debentureholders”) to review redemption instructions
from their financial institution to ensure a request for conversion
is submitted in advance of the cutoff time set by the
Debentureholder’s financial institution. This can be several days
in advance of the Redemption Date and is not controlled by the
Company.
As of the date hereof, there was $74,106,000
($1,000 per Debenture) aggregate principal amount of Debentures
issued and outstanding. Accordingly, on the Redemption Date,
subject to compliance with the Trust Indenture, the holder of each
Debenture (unless converted prior to the Redemption Date in
accordance with the terms of the Trust Indenture) will receive a
total payment of $1,008.86111 (the “Redemption
Price”), comprised of a principal repayment of $1,000.00
and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the interest
payment date of December 31, 2024 of $8.86111 until the Redemption
Date. All interest on the Debentures shall cease from and after the
Redemption Date.
The Company intends to pay the Redemption Price
in cash. Subject to regulatory approval, the Company intends to
have the Debentures de-listed from the Toronto Stock Exchange
following their redemption.

words “will”, “intends”, “may”, “could” or similar expressions. In
particular, this news release contains forward-looking statements
and information relating to the redemption of the Debentures, the
issuance of Common Shares as payment of the Redemption Price, the
payment of cash in respect of interest and fractional shares and
the anticipated de-listing of the Debentures. These forward-looking
statements are being made by NACG based on certain assumptions that
NACG has made in respect thereof as at the date of this news
release, regarding, among other things that all required regulatory
approvals will be obtained on the necessary terms in a timely
manner; and that NACG will, on the Redemption Date, meet all of the
required terms and conditions of the Debentures (including those
set forth in the applicable debenture indentures) in order to
effect the redemption on the terms currently contemplated (which
includes assumptions respecting trading prices of the Common
Shares). These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of
future performance and are subject to a number of known and unknown
risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to: the risk
that regulatory approvals will not be obtained in the timelines or
on the terms required thereby delaying the redemption or causing it
to not occur at all; the risk that NACG will not be able to meet
the requirements for redemption on the Redemption Date, including
with respect to the price of its Common Shares, which ability may
be impacted by a number of risk factors. The material factors or
assumptions used to develop the above forward-looking statements
and the risks and uncertainties to which such forward-looking
statements are subject are highlighted in the Company’s MD&A
for the year ended December 31, 2023 and quarter ending September
30, 2024. Actual results could differ materially from those
contemplated by such forward-looking statements because of any
number of factors and uncertainties, many of which are beyond
NACG’s control. For more complete information about NACG, please
