Canada Nickel Raises $34 Million From Flow Through Financing, Clearing Up Questions Over Agnico Eagle Stake

Canada Nickel Company (TSXV: CNC) provided clarity this morning to Friday’s announcement by Agnico Eagle (TSX: AEM) that it had taken a major 12% stake in the company.

While Agnico’s move to take a 12.0% interest in the company via a private purchase of units was viewed as a positive, investors were left confused over the weekend as to what units they actually acquired. Agnico had disclosed that they purchased 19.6 million flow through units from a third party, yet Canada Nickel had not disclosed it was raising funds.

As it turns out, Canada Nickel was in fact raising funds under a flow through offering that was not previously disclosed. Under the terms of the financing, the company sold 19.6 million units of the company at $1.77 per flow through unit, with each unit containing on flow through common share and 0.35 of a purchase warrant. The offering raised gross proceeds of $34.7 million for Canada Nickel.

Agnico Eagle then subsequently acquired those units for $1.18 a piece from the initial purchasers.

The company also disclosed it expects to close offtake initiatives prior to January 18, 2024, when a US$12 million loan from Auramet comes due.

Canada Nickel last traded at $1.14 on the TSX Venture.
