VANCOUVER, BC, June 4, 2025 /CNW/ - OceanaGold Corporation (TSX: OGC), (TSX: OTCQX) (TSX: OCANF) ("OceanaGold" or the "Company") is pleased to report the voting results from the Company's 2025 Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting") held today.
A total of 538,458,035 common shares were voted at the meeting, representing 77.12% of the votes attached to all outstanding common shares. Shareholders voted in favour of each of the items of business at the Annual Meeting as follows:
Election of Directors
Resolutions electing each of the director nominees listed in OceanaGold's Management Information Circular dated April 23, 2025 as directors of the Company were passed by ordinary resolution.
Detailed results of the vote for each director are set out in the table below:
Share Consolidation
A special resolution approving the consolidation of all issued and outstanding common shares of the Company on a consolidation ratio of up to three (3) pre-consolidation common shares for one (1) post-consolidation common share (the "Consolidation") was passed.
The Company is exploring the benefits of a dual listing of its common shares on a major U.S. exchange, including the New York Stock Exchange, for a potential listing in the first half of 2026. The Company believes a U.S. listing could lead to increased interest by a wider audience of potential investors and result in increased marketability and trading liquidity. The principal reason for the Consolidation is to raise the per share trading price of the common shares in order to better comply with minimum trading price requirements of such exchanges.
Subject to approval by the Toronto Stock Exchange, OceanaGold expects the Consolidation to be effective on or around June 23, 2025, and intends to issue a detailed press release to provide a further update and final details on the Consolidation.

TORONTO, June 5, 2025 /CNW/ - SolarBank Corporation (Nasdaq: SUUN) (Cboe CA: SUNN) (FSE: GY2) (" SolarBank" or the " Company") announces that following the filing of its new short form base shelf prospectus, it is proceeding with a renewal of its at-the-market equity program (the " ATM Program"). The Company is required to renew the ATM Program due to the expiry of the Company's 2023 short form base shelf prospectus. The Company has entered into an equity distribution agreement (the " Distribution Agreement") with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (" Wainwrigh t"), Research Capital Corporation (" RCC"), Research Capital USA Inc. (together with Wainwright and RCC, the " Agents") to renew the ATM Program. There can be no assurance that the Company will issue and sell any common shares under the ATM Program. The timing of any sales and the number of shares sold, if any, will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company. Under the Distribution Agreement, the Company may issue common shares of the Company having an aggregate offering price of up to US$15,000,000 (the " Offered Shares") under the ATM Program. The Offered Shares will be issued by the Company to the public from time to time, through the Agents, at the Company's discretion. The Offered Shares sold under the ATM Program, if any, will be sold at the prevailing market price at the time of sale. Since the Offered Shares will be distributed at trading prices prevailing at the time of the sale, prices may vary between purchasers and during the period of distribution. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from sales of Offered Shares under the ATM Program, if any, to advance the Company's business objectives and for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, funding ongoing operations or working capital requirements, repaying indebtedness outstanding from time to time, discretionary capital programs and potential future acquisitions. Sales of Offered Shares, if any, will be made through the Agents in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in National Instrument 44-102 – Shelf Distributions and an "at-the-market offering" as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on the Cboe Canada Inc. (" Cboe") and the Nasdaq Stock Market, or any other applicable "marketplace" for the common shares in Canada. The Company is not obligated to make any sales of Offered Shares under the Distribution Agreement. The Company will pay the Agents a commission of up to 3.0% of the gross offering proceeds from each sale of Offered Shares and has agreed to provide the Agents with customary indemnification and contribution rights. The Company will also reimburse the Agents for certain specified expenses in connection with the entering into and performance of the Distribution Agreement. The ATM Program is being made in Canada pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated June 5, 2025 (the " Prospectus Supplement") to the Company's final short form base shelf prospectus dated May 7, 2025 (the " Base Prospectus"), and in the United States pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated June 5, 2025 (the " U.S. Prospectus Supplement") to the Company's final base shelf prospectus contained in the Company's effective registration statement on Form F-10 (File No. 333-287070) (the " Registration Statement") filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the " SEC"). Prospective investors should read the Base Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement and other documents the Company has filed with the SEC (some of which are incorporated by reference into the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement) for more complete information about the Company and the ATM Program, including the risks associated with investing in the Company.
