GreenBank to Revise Financial Statement Disclosure

GreenBank to Revise Financial Statement Disclosure

This news release is not for distribution or dissemination in the United States of America


Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - GreenBank Capital Inc (CSE: GBC and OTCMKTS: GRNBF) ("GreenBank or the Company") announces that, as a result of review by staff of the Ontario Securities Commission (“OSC”) it will be revising the financial statement disclosure in its next annual filing for the period ended July 31, 2017.

The revised disclosure is being made with respect to the basis for valuation of the GreenCoinX portfolio owned by the Company’s former subsidiary GreenCoinX Inc prior to the completion of the plan of arrangement on September 8, 2017. The financial statements of the Company disclosed a value of $nil for the GreenCoinX portfolio, as well as disclosing in a Note to the financial statements that at the most recent market price of CAD$1.53 per GreenCoinX the portfolio is valued at $90,000,000. The Note also stated that there is no guarantee that, if sold in the market, the GreenCoinX portfolio would realize the current market price. OSC staff noted that referencing market price and market value could be misleading as (1) GreenCoinX is solely traded on a non-arms length exchange, (2) there is very limited trading on the exchange, and the average daily trading volumes were less than $1,000 over the previous year, and (3) as a result, if GreenCoinX Inc were to have liquidated its portfolio of GreenCoinX it likely would not have received a market price of CAD$1.53 per GreenCoinX. The reference to market price first appeared in the April 30, 2016 filings and was subsequently mentioned in all financial statements and MD&A filings. The revised disclosure will be a restatement of information included in previous annual and interim filings and will occur in the Company’s upcoming July 31, 2017 annual filings to be filed on or before November 28, 2017.
