Kobo Resources shareholders approved an amendment to the long-term incentive plan, increasing potential share issuance to 10% of outstanding. The TSX Venture Exchange must still approve the change.
Kobo Resources shareholders approved an amendment to the company's long-term incentive plan, increasing the maximum number of shares issuable under options from a fixed 7.3 million to a rolling 10% of outstanding shares. That works out to roughly 13.5 million shares based on current counts, the company said. The change still needs a green light from the TSX Venture Exchange.
Shareholders also elected seven directors: Edouard Gosselin, Paul Sarjeant, Frank Ricciuti, Patrick Gagnon, Jeff Hussey, Brian Scott and Vivek Dharni. MNP LLP was reappointed as the company's auditor for the coming year.
Kobo is a gold exploration outfit focused on Côte d'Ivoire, where it owns 100% of the Kossou Gold Project, about 20 km northwest of Yamoussoukro. The property sits next to one of the region's largest gold mines, which has established processing facilities. Since 2023, Kobo has drilled more than 43,000 metres of diamond core, nearly 5,887 metres of reverse circulation, and cut over 7,200 metres of trenching. Drilling has confirmed mineralization at the Jagger, Road Cut and Kadie zones, with the latest phase refining structural controls on the gold. The company is also advancing work at its Kotobi Permit and looking to expand its land position in the country.
The plan amendment, if approved by the TSXV, would give Kobo more flexibility to grant stock options without needing repeated shareholder votes to raise the fixed cap. The company's circular, filed on SEDAR, contains the full terms. The TSXV's decision is the next milestone.
