Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 7, 2020) - Synex International Inc. (TSX: SXI) ("Synex" or the "Company") announces today that, notwithstanding the COVID-19 pandemic, which has impacted all businesses, the Company has maintained its operation of providing electricity to BC Hydro and other customers with minimal financial impact to the Company. The supply of electricity is considered to be an essential service so the Company's operations remain largely uninterrupted. Further, most of the Company's employees are able to work remotely. The small number of part-time plant operators and contractors who cannot work remotely are still able to safely practice "social distancing" objectives at work. The Company continues to closely monitor the situation so it can react promptly to changing circumstances.

Additionally, the Company is postponing the filing of the following documents (collectively, the "Disclosure Documents") in reliance on BC Instrument 51-515 - Temporary Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance Requirements (the "Instrument"), and similar exemptions provided by other Canadian securities regulators:

  • The Company's interim financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2020 as required by section 4.4 of National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations ("NI 51-102"); and

  • The Company's management discussion & analysis for the period ended March 31, 2020 as required by subsection 5.1(2) of NI 51-102.

The Instrument provides the Company with an additional 45 days from the deadline otherwise applicable under applicable Canadian securities laws to make the filing. The Company's management and other insiders are subject to a trading blackout reflecting the principles contained in section 9 of National Policy 11-207 - Failure to File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions. The Company expects to file the Disclosure Documents on or prior to May 29, 2020.

Other than as disclosed herein, there have been no material business developments since the date of the Company's interim financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2019, which are available under the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.
