TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / May 20, 2020 / Stans Energy Corp. (the "Company" or "Stans") (TSXV:HRE) wishes to provide an update on the coronavirus pandemic ("COVID-19") as it affects the Company and the status of the filing of its annual financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis, and related CEO and CFO certifications, for the financial year ended December 31, 2019.
Following notification received on April 30, 2020 from the Ontario Securities Commission ("OSC") regarding enactment on April 23, 2020 of the Ontario Instrument 51-502 Temporary Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance Requirements (the "OSC Temporary Exemption") providing a 45-day extension for certain periodic filings required to be made on or prior to June 1, Stans issued on May 7, 2020 the Press Release notifying public that it will be relying on this extension period due to delays experienced as result of COVID-19. It took us less then 5 business days to prepare this complicated announcement given that no guidelines were provided for the filing of this extension.
To our surprise OSC issued a Cease Trading Order (CTO) on May 6, 2020 apparently triggered by our slow reaction to its notice. Whatever the reasons we must complete our financial reporting in order to remove this CTO.
We will provide an update as per regulators requirements before June 15, 2020.
Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
