    We are subject to the continued listing criteria of the CSE and the continued qualification requirements of the OTCQB, and our failure to satisfy these criteria may result in delisting of our Common Stock from the CSE and/or removal of our Common Stock from trading on the OTCQB.

    Our Common Stock is currently listed for trading on the CSE, a securities exchange in Canada, and quoted on the OTCQB, an inter-dealer trading market in the United States. In order to maintain the listing on the CSE or any other securities exchange we may trade on, we must maintain certain financial and share distribution targets, including maintaining a minimum number of public shareholders. In addition to objective standards, these exchanges may delist the securities of any issuer if, in the exchange's opinion, our financial condition and/or operating results appear unsatisfactory; if it appears that the extent of public distribution or the aggregate market value of the security has become so reduced as to make continued listing inadvisable; if we sell or dispose of our principal operating assets or cease to be an operating company; if we fail to comply with the listing requirements; or if any other event occurs or any condition exists which, in their opinion, makes continued listing on the exchange inadvisable. If the CSE or any other exchange were to delist the Common Stock, investors may face material adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, a lack of trading market for the Common Stock, reduced liquidity, decreased analyst coverage, and/or an inability for us to obtain additional financing to fund our operations. Quotation of our Common Stock on the OTCQB provides us with a trading platform in the United States.  In order to continue to qualify to trade on the OTCQB, we must continue to meet the criteria set out in the OTCQB Standards, which include meeting ongoing disclosure obligations and financial standards.  In the event we no longer qualified to trade on the OTCQB, we would have to seek qualification on the new OTCID market tier of the OTC Markets to continue to provide investors with a trading platform in the United States.

    We are subject to the continued listing criteria of the CSE and the continued qualification requirements of the OTCQB, and our failure to satisfy these criteria may result in delisting of our Common Stock from the CSE and/or removal of our Common Stock from trading on the OTCQB.

    Our Common Stock is currently listed for trading on the CSE, a securities exchange in Canada, and quoted on the OTCQB, an inter-dealer trading market in the United States. In order to maintain the listing on the CSE or any other securities exchange we may trade on, we must maintain certain financial and share distribution targets, including maintaining a minimum number of public shareholders. In addition to objective standards, these exchanges may delist the securities of any issuer if, in the exchange's opinion, our financial condition and/or operating results appear unsatisfactory; if it appears that the extent of public distribution or the aggregate market value of the security has become so reduced as to make continued listing inadvisable; if we sell or dispose of our principal operating assets or cease to be an operating company; if we fail to comply with the listing requirements; or if any other event occurs or any condition exists which, in their opinion, makes continued listing on the exchange inadvisable. If the CSE or any other exchange were to delist the Common Stock, investors may face material adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, a lack of trading market for the Common Stock, reduced liquidity, decreased analyst coverage, and/or an inability for us to obtain additional financing to fund our operations. Quotation of our Common Stock on the OTCQB provides us with a trading platform in the United States.  In order to continue to qualify to trade on the OTCQB, we must continue to meet the criteria set out in the OTCQB Standards, which include meeting ongoing disclosure obligations and financial standards.  In the event we no longer qualified to trade on the OTCQB, we would have to seek qualification on the new OTCID market tier of the OTC Markets to continue to provide investors with a trading platform in the United States.

    Our share price may be volatile and as a result you could lose all or part of your investment.

    In addition to volatility associated with equity securities in general, the value of your investment could decline due to the impact of any of a wide variety of factors, including the following, upon the market price of the Shares: Delays in or disappointing results from our efforts to establish, through litigation, that mining operations on the I-M Mine Property are a Constitutionally protected vested use and that a use permit is therefore not required for mining operations to continue; Disappointing results from our exploration efforts; Decline in demand for our Common Stock; Downward revisions in securities analysts' estimates or changes in general market conditions; Technological innovations by competitors or in competing technologies; Investor perception of our industry or our prospects; and General economic trends. Our share price on the CSE and the OTCQB has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. Stock markets in general have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, and the market prices of securities have been highly volatile. These fluctuations are often unrelated to operating performance and may adversely affect the market price of the Shares. As a result, you may be unable to sell any Shares you acquire at a desired price.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    Investors' interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share of Common Stock if we issue additional employee/director/consultant options or if we sell additional Common Stock and/or warrants to finance our operations.

    In order to further expand our operations and meet our objectives, any additional growth and/or expanded exploration activity will likely need to be financed through sale of and issuance of additional Common Stock, including, but not limited to, raising funds to explore the I-M Mine Property. Furthermore, to finance any acquisition activity, should that activity be properly approved, and depending on the outcome of our exploration programs, we likely will also need to issue additional Common Stock to finance future acquisitions, growth, and/or additional exploration programs of any or all of our projects or to acquire additional properties. We will also in the future grant to some or all of our directors, officers, and key employees and/or consultants options to purchase Common Stock as non-cash incentives. The issuance of any equity securities could, and the issuance of any additional Common Stock will, cause our existing stockholders to experience dilution of their ownership interests. If we issue additional Common Stock or decide to enter into joint ventures with other parties in order to raise financing through the sale of equity securities, investors' interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share of Common Stock depending on the price at which such securities are sold.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4
    The issuance of additional shares of Common Stock may negatively impact the trading price of our securities.

    We have issued Common Stock in the past and will continue to issue Common Stock to finance our activities in the future. In addition, newly issued or outstanding options, warrants, and broker warrants to purchase Common Stock may be exercised, resulting in the issuance of additional Common Stock. Any such issuance of additional Common Stock would result in dilution to our stockholders, and even the perception that such an issuance may occur could have a negative impact on the trading price of the Common Stock.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
