IBC Advanced Alloys (OTCQB:IAALF, TSX-V:IB) approved the issuance of 1,039,105 common shares to its directors as compensation for service from July 2025 through June 2026, at a deemed price of C$0.16 per share, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.

The new shares will carry a four-month-and-one-day hold period from the issuance date. According to IBC, the recipient directors (Mark A. Smith, Geoffrey Hampson, Simon Anderson, Michael Jarvis and Chris Huskamp) currently hold about 27.69% of outstanding shares. The issuances are considered related party transactions under MI 61-101, but IBC is relying on exemptions from formal valuation and minority approval because the fair market value is below 25% of its market capitalization.
