VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / May 15, 2025 / Tectonic Metals Inc. ("Tectonic" or the "Company") (TSXV:TECT)(OTCQB:TETOF) is pleased to announce that, further to its news release dated April 24, 2025, the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V") has approved the Consolidation of its issued and outstanding common shares ("Common Shares") on the basis of one (1) Post-Consolidated Common Share (a "Post-Consolidated Common Share") for every ten (10) Pre-Consolidated Common Shares (the "Consolidation"). The Consolidation will become effective at the opening of trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on May 20, 2025. The Company's shareholders previously approved the Consolidation at the Company's annual general and special meeting held on September 21, 2023, and further approval at the 10:1 ratio was provided by the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution passed on April 24, 2025.

The Share Consolidation initiative is not driven by necessity, but rather by strategic foresight, aimed at positioning the Company and its shareholders to fully capitalize on strengthening gold prices, increasing institutional interest in gold, and Tectonic's own imminent, high-impact catalysts. There will be no name or symbol change in conjunction with the Consolidation. The new CUSIP will be 87877T608 and the new ISIN number will be CA87877T6088 for the Post-Consolidated Common Shares.

As of the date hereof, there are a total of 419,853,777 Common Shares issued and outstanding. Accordingly, upon the Consolidation becoming effective and subject to adjustments for rounding, a total of 41,985,378 Post-Consolidated Common Shares will be issued and outstanding, excluding any Post-Consolidated Common Shares issuable under the Company's previously announced non-brokered private placement. No fractional Post-Consolidated Common Shares will be issued as a result of the Consolidation, and any fractional share interest will be rounded down to the nearest whole Post-Consolidated Common Share. No cash consideration will be paid in respect of fractional shares.

The exercise or conversion price and the number of Common Shares issuable under any of the Company's outstanding warrants and stock options will be proportionately adjusted to reflect the Consolidation in accordance with their respective terms.

A letter of transmittal will be mailed to registered shareholders as at the Effective Date, providing instructions with respect to surrendering share certificates representing pre-Consolidation Shares in exchange for post-Consolidation Shares issued as a result of the Consolidation. Until surrendered, each certificate representing pre-Consolidation Shares will be deemed to represent the number of post-Consolidation Shares the holder received as a result of the Consolidation. Shareholders who hold their Shares in brokerage accounts or in book-entry form are not required to take any action.
