Brisbane, Australia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 13, 2025) - Adyton Resources Corp. (TSXV: ADY) (FSE: 701) ("Adyton" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has completed its previously announced brokered private placement financing (the "Offering") for total gross proceeds of C$14,000,000 from the sale of 35,000,000 units of the Company (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.40 per Unit (the "Offering Price"). Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a "Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Share at a price of $0.60 for a period of 24 months following the date of closing.
Clarus Securities Inc. ("Clarus") and PowerOne Capital Markets Limited ("PowerOne" and, together with Clarus, the "Lead Agents") acted as agents for the Offering.
In connection with the Offering, the Company paid a cash commission to the Lead Agents equal to 6.5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering and also issued to the Lead Agents an aggregate of 2,275,000 non-transferable compensation options (each, a "Compensation Option"). Each Compensation Option entitles the holder to acquire one Unit at the Offering Price for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.
Concurrent with the Offering, the Company also completed a non-brokered private placement of 15,000,000 units of the Company (the "NB Units") at the Offering Price per NB Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of C$6,000,000 (the "Non-Brokered Offering"). The NB Units have the same terms as the Units. The purpose of the Non-Brokered Offering was primarily to enable the board of directors and management of the Company, along with residents of Papua New Guinea, to participate in a financing of the Company on similar terms as the Offering and to use the net proceeds from the Non-Brokered Offering to advance the Company's exploration and development activities. No finder's fees were paid in connection with the Non-Brokered Offering.
Two insiders of the Company, Company Chairman Sinton Spence and Independent Director Michael Gray, participated in the Offering and subscribed for an aggregate of 1,225,775 Units. Such participation constitutes a "related-party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company has relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities issued to the insiders nor the consideration paid by them exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization (as determined in accordance with MI 61-101).
The Units and NB Units were issued pursuant to applicable exemptions from the prospectus requirements under applicable securities laws. The securities issued pursuant to the Offering and the Non-Brokered Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus one day from the date of closing, in accordance with applicable securities legislation.
The securities issued under the Offering and the Non-Brokered Offering have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.
