The INX Digital Company, Inc. Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB)

NEW YORK and TORONTO, Sept. 16, 2024 /CNW/ -The INX Digital Company, Inc. (CBOE: INXD) (INXATS: INX) (OTCQB: INXDF) (“INX” or the “Company“), the owner of digital asset trading platforms, is pleased to announce that it intends to renew its normal course issuer bid (the “NCIB“) program to repurchase common shares of the Company (“Common Shares“).

Pursuant to the NCIB, which has been accepted by CBOE Canada (“CBOE“), the Company may purchase up to a maximum of 15,185,615 Common Shares, representing approximately 10% of the public float of its Common Shares as of August 30, 2024, provided that the aggregate purchase price for any Common Shares acquired under the NCIB, and the aggregate purchase price for any tokens of INX Limited (“INX Tokens“) acquired under its previously disclosed token repurchase program must not exceed US$5 million.

Purchases under the NCIB may be made through open market transactions on the CBOE based on the prevailing market price. In accordance with CBOE rules, daily purchases (other than pursuant to a block purchase exception) under the NCIB cannot exceed 8,881 Common Shares, representing 25% of the average daily trading volume on the CBOE, being 35,526 Common Shares as measured from February 28, 2024 to August 30, 2024. Any Common Shares purchased under the NCIB will be cancelled.

Transactions under the NCIB will depend on future market conditions. The Company will retain discretion whether to make purchases under the NCIB, and to determine the timing, amount, and acceptable price of any such purchases, subject at all times to applicable CBOE and other regulatory requirements. The Company believes that the purchase of Common Shares from time to time can be undertaken at prices that do not fully reflect their value. The Company believes that, in such circumstances, the repurchase of Common Shares represents an appropriate use of the Company’s available funds to support shareholder value.

The Company has appointed PI Financial Corp. as the broker through which the Company will conduct purchases under the NCIB. The purchases will be completed pursuant to the policies of the CBOE.

The period during which the Company will be authorized to make purchases under the NCIB will commence on September 19, 2024 and end the earlier of (i) September 18, 2025, and (ii) such earlier date on which the maximum number of Common Shares are purchased under the NCIB.

Under its prior NCIB that commenced on August 11, 2023 and expired on August 10, 2024, INX received approval from the CBOE to purchase up to a maximum of 12,713,823 Common Shares. As of August 10, 2024, INX had purchased 147,000  Common Shares under its prior NCIB through open market purchases on the CBOE. As of September 16, 2024, no INX Tokens have been repurchased by the Company under the token repurchase program, which was announced on December 20, 2021.
