20 Novembro 2024 - 11:32AM
Urbana Corporation ("Urbana") (TSX and CSE: URB, URB.A) is pleased
to announce that at a special general meeting held on November 13,
2024, Members and Preference Shareholders of Integrated Grain
Processors Co-operative Inc. ("IGPC") approved a conversion of IGPC
from a co-operative corporation to a business corporation and the
subsequent sale of all shares of IGPC under a statutory plan of
arrangement (the “Arrangement”) to Alco Energy SA, through its
Canadian subsidiary, Alco Energy Canada Corp.
IGPC is Canada's largest cooperatively owned
fuel ethanol producer and Urbana currently holds 2,052,066 Class E
preferred shares or 18.7% of the equity in IGPC.
Completion of the proposed Arrangement is
subject to certain conditions, including regulatory approval. The
closing of the Arrangement is expected to occur in December
2024.
Urbana’s original investment in IGPC totaled
approximately $7.5 million. To date, Urbana has received
approximately $11.9 million in dividends and capital
distributions.
The current distribution, comprised of sale
proceeds and additional dividends, is expected to approximate $64.8
million to Urbana. Much of this amount has already been accrued but
it is expected that Urbana’s Net Assets per share (after-tax) will
incrementally increase by approximately $0.16.
On behalf of Urbana’s Board of Directors Thomas
S. Caldwell, C.M.
