North Bay Resources Inc. Announces Completion of Reverse Stock Split

17.02.2015  |  Accesswire
SKIPPACK, PA / ACCESSWIRE / February 17, 2015 / North Bay Resources Inc. ("North Bay" or the "Company") (OTC: NBRI) (PINKSHEETS: NBRI) (OTC: NBRID) (PINKSHEETS: NBRID), today announced that the Company has completed its recapitalization in the form of a 1-for-200 reverse split of its common stock previously disclosed in its SEC filings on January 6, 2015 and January 16, 2015. The reverse split was approved by FINRA to take effect today at the market open, at which time North Bay's common stock will trade on a split-adjusted basis under new CUSIP number 657488300 and temporary symbol "NBRID", with the "D" appended to signify that the reverse stock split has occurred. North Bay's trading symbol will revert to "NBRI" after 20 trading days.

The reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding from approximately 1.92 billion to approximately 9.6 million. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Any remaining fractional shares will entitle a shareholder to receive a full share of post-split shares. Further details of the reverse stock split are contained in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 13, 2015.

The reverse stock split is intended to improve market awareness of the Company's common stock and position the Company to regain compliance for the renewed listing of its common stock on the OTCQB exchange. Notwithstanding the reverse stock split, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the OTCQB minimum bid price listing requirements or to maintain its renewed listing should it be achieved.

The Company also reports that discussions on a joint-venture and/or other non-dilutive funding for the Ruby Mine are continuing. As well, discussions have also been underway with several prospective buyers of one or more of our Canadian properties. The Company is also working to secure a large debt consolidation loan that will provide non-dilutive funding to extinguish most if not all of the existing debt on our balance sheet as well as operational funding for the next 12 months at the Ruby Mine. We remain optimistic that news on these initiatives will be forthcoming in the near future. However, there is no certainty as of yet when or if any of these prospective transactions will be consummated. We will provide additional updates in the near future to keep shareholders informed of any new developments as soon as there is material news to report.

North Bay CEO Perry Leopold explains, "Over the past five months we have been focused on paying down debt as much as current market conditions will allow. No new debt has been incurred since last September, and we have temporarily cutback on all projects, including Fraser River and the Ruby Gold spinoff, to conserve our available cash as much as possible as we continue to reduce the debt on our balance sheet. Despite our cost saving measures and commitment to reduce debt, our share price has been inexplicably held down at an artificially low level for several months now, such that our present market cap does not in any way reflect the fair value of our assets. This persistent low valuation has caused dilution to get out of control, as we have had to issue ten times the number of shares for same dollar amount of debt conversion than would have been otherwise required had our share price remained where it was last October when we announced the suspension of operations at the Ruby for the winter. By the time our outstanding shares exceeded one billion it was clear that we had no alternative but to recapitalize our capital structure through a reverse split to help restore some semblance of rationality to our share price. We sincerely regret the need for this action and its effect on shareholders, but we remain optimistic that the initiatives we are working on will allow us to strengthen our balance sheet and resume operations in the near future at all of our projects. The fully-permitted Ruby Mine remains a viable near-term revenue opportunity. Mt. Washington and Tulameen Platinum remain compelling projects, each with significant mineralization worthy of further development. Fraser River and Monte Cristo remain low-cost placer mines that can be in production once government agencies are satisfied there will be no impact to any sites of historical interest. And the option on our Brett West property remains scheduled to be a source of additional cash flow over the next 2 years. None of these things are presently reflected in our market cap. We believe this is a severe and unjustified market distortion, one which we are determined to see corrected as we move forward to achieve our goals."
