Key Points
- Lithium Chile provided a corporate update following the appointment of PI Financial Corp. as its corporate adviser.
- The company is encouraged by the interest from third parties regarding a possible transaction related to its Salar de Arizaro assets in Argentina and its Chilean asset portfolio.
- Lithium Chile is considering a restructuring initiative to separate its Argentinian and Chilean assets into independent companies to unlock the value of its Chilean projects and facilitate transactions involving the Salar de Arizaro assets.
Lithium Chile Inc. has provided a corporate update following its Sept. 25, 2023, press release announcing the appointment of PI Financial Corp. as its corporate adviser to assist in evaluating various options on behalf of the board of the company and its shareholders.
At this stage of the Process, Lithium Chile is encouraged by the level of interest shown from third parties and looks forward to ongoing engagement with these parties in connection with a possible transaction relating to the Company’s Salar de Arizaro assets in Argentina and its Chilean asset portfolio.
Lithium Chile is also investigating the potential of a restructuring initiative involving the separation of the Company’s Argentinian and Chilean assets into separate independent companies. The Company believes that its current share price does not fully recognize the value of the Chilean assets and that by separating the Chilean asset portfolio from the assets in Argentina by way of a “spin-out”, the Company and its shareholders may benefit from unlocking the value of the Chilean projects. Additionally, a spin-out should allow for a more straightforward transaction for third parties that are particularly interested in a transaction involving the Salar de Arizaro assets in Argentina.
Lithium Chile looks forward to providing additional updates and comprehensive details concerning the Process in the coming months.
