First Majestic Silver Corp. has received regulatory approval for a 12-month extension of its share repurchase program, allowing the company to buy back up to 10 million common shares, representing about 4.5% of its outstanding shares. The program aims to enhance shareholder value by increasing equity interests, especially when shares may not reflect the company's underlying value. The repurchase will occur through the Toronto Stock Exchange, with a daily limit on purchases. The previous repurchase program did not result in any share buybacks.
First Majestic Silver Corp. is acquiring Jerritt Canyon Canada Ltd. from Sprott Mining Inc. for $470 million in shares and 5 million share purchase warrants. This acquisition enhances First Majestic's operational platform in Nevada, an attractive mining jurisdiction, and strengthens its portfolio with expected pro forma production of 30-33 million silver equivalent ounces. The transaction includes a $30 million private placement from Eric Sprott, post-acquisition, owning approximately 13.1% of First Majestic's common shares.
First Majestic Silver Corp. (AG) has issued a detailed response to recent misleading Mexican media reports about its ongoing tax dispute with the Mexican government. The company asserts that it is compliant with tax regulations in both Canada and Mexico. Notably, First Majestic filed a NAFTA Request for Arbitration to resolve differences regarding the tax assessments, which total approximately US$260 million. The dispute arose from tax assessments on PEM based on market prices instead of actual revenue, contradicting the previously agreed Advance Pricing Agreement with Mexican tax authorities.
