Urbana renews normal course issuer bid
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 4, 2026) - Urbana Corporation (TSX: URB) (TSX: URB.A) (CSE: URB) (CSE: URB.A) ("Urbana") announced today that the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") has accepted its notice of intention to conduct a normal course issuer bid to enable it to purchase up to 3,101,391 of its non-voting Class A shares (the "Class A Shares"), representing 10% of the public float, pursuant to TSX rules (the "Notice").
Purchases under the bid may commence on September 9, 2026, and will terminate on the earlier of September 8, 2027, the date Urbana completes its purchases pursuant to the notice of intention to make a normal course issuer bid filed with the TSX, and the date of notice by Urbana of termination of the bid.
Purchases will be made on the open market through the facilities of TSX, the Canadian Securities Exchange or alternative Canadian trading systems, or by such other means as may be permitted by the applicable securities regulator. Caldwell Securities Ltd. will make all purchases pursuant to the bid on behalf of Urbana. The price that Urbana will pay for any such shares will be the market price of such shares at the time of acquisition. Class A Shares purchased under the bid will be cancelled. Urbana will not purchase on any given day, in the aggregate, more than 2,575 Class A Shares (the "Daily Limit") through the TSX, being 25% of the average daily volume for the most recently completed six months prior to the submission of the Notice, which is 10,301 shares (the "ADTV"), calculated in accordance with the TSX rules. Notwithstanding the above-mentioned Daily Limit, Urbana may make one block purchase per calendar week through the TSX that exceeds the Daily Limit in accordance with TSX rules. A block purchase under TSX rules means a purchase that (a) has a total purchase price of at least $200,000, (b) is at least 5,000 shares and has a total purchase price of at least $50,000, or (c) is at least 20 board lots and at least 150% of the ADTV.
Under a previous notice of intention to conduct a normal course issuer bid, Urbana sought and received approval from the TSX to purchase up to 3,107,305, Class A Shares for the period of September 9, 2025 to September 8, 2026. As of August 31, 2026, Urbana has purchased 58,800 Class A shares under that bid. As of August 31, 2026, the issued and outstanding number of Class A shares is 31,336,300 shares and the public float of the Class A shares is 31,013,913 shares.
Urbana believes that the market price of its Class A Shares at times may be attractive and that the purchase of Class A Shares from time to time would be an appropriate use of corporate funds in light of potential benefits to the remaining shareholders.
