Crown Capital Partners Announces Renewal of Normal Course Issuer Bid

Canada NewsWire

CALGARY, April 8, 2019 /CNW/ - Crown Capital Partners Inc. ("Crown" or the "Corporation") (TSX: CRWN), a capital partner to entrepreneurs and growth businesses, today announced that it has received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") to renew its normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") for a 12-month period commencing April 10, 2019.

The renewed NCIB will follow the current NCIB, which ends on April 9, 2019 and under which Crown purchased 99,683 shares at a volume-weighted average price per share of $10.07 up to April 5, 2019.

Under the terms of the renewed NCIB, Crown will have the right to purchase up to 300,000 of its common shares (the "Shares") representing approximately 5.3% of the public float and approximately 3.1% of the 9,610,827 issued and outstanding Shares as at March 31, 2019. The number of Shares that can be purchased pursuant to the renewed NCIB is subject to a daily maximum of 1,391, which is 25% of 5,565 (being the average daily trading volume for the Shares on the TSX for the six months ended March 31, 2019). Shares purchased by the Corporation pursuant to the renewed NCIB will be cancelled. Purchases made pursuant to the renewed NCIB will be made in the open market through the facilities of the TSX and alternative trading systems, if eligible. The renewed NCIB will commence on April 10, 2019 and remain in effect until the earlier of April 9, 2020, the termination of the renewed NCIB by Crown, and Crown purchasing the maximum number of Shares permitted under the renewed NCIB.

In the opinion of the Corporation's board of directors and senior management, the renewed NCIB provides Crown with the flexibility to utilize its capital to acquire Shares from time to time under the appropriate circumstances. At December 31, 2018, Crown's total equity per basic common share was $10.91.
