Largo Resources Further Reduces its Debt with Repurchase of US$26 Million of its 9.25% Senior Secured Notes Due 2021

Canada NewsWire

TORONTO, Dec. 16, 2018 /CNW/ - Largo Resources Ltd. ("Largo" or the "Company") (TSX: LGO) (OTCQX: LGORF) is pleased to announce that it has repurchased and retired an additional US$26.0 million in aggregate principal amount plus premium and accrued and unpaid interest in consideration for the payment of US$27.4 million in cash. Following this repurchase for cancellation the remaining aggregate principal amount outstanding on the Company's 9.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2021 (the "Notes") is US$92.8 million, representing a significant decrease of approximately 22%. The Notes were repurchased at 105.125% and the Company worked with Jefferies LLC who arranged for and facilitated the repurchase of the Notes.

Mark Smith, Chief Executive Officer for Largo, stated: "We are very proud to report that upon completion of this additional Note repurchase Largo's outstanding debt balance is now less than US$100 million, highlighting another notable achievement by the Company as a direct result of its strong financial performance. We anticipate having the remainder of the Company's outstanding balance repaid in Q2 2019 but will continue to repurchase additional debt going forward should the opportunity arise and terms be favorable."
