McEwen Inc. Closes Combination with Canadian Gold; Requires Vote for CEO Shares

What Happened

  • McEwen Inc. announced on January 6, 2026 that it has closed the previously announced business combination with Canadian Gold Corp. by way of a statutory plan of arrangement. Canadian Gold shareholders approved the Arrangement on December 5, 2025 and the British Columbia Supreme Court issued a final order approving the Arrangement on December 10, 2025 (as amended).
  • The company entered an amendment to the Arrangement that requires shareholder approval before issuing any McEwen common stock to Robert McEwen (Chairman and CEO) in exchange for the Canadian Gold shares he holds. The Amendment is expected to be filed as an exhibit to McEwen’s next Form 10-K. A press release dated January 6, 2026 is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the 8-K.

Key Details

  • Closing announced: January 6, 2026.
  • Canadian Gold shareholder approval: December 5, 2025; BC Supreme Court final approval: December 10, 2025.
  • Amendment requires advance shareholder approval for any issuance of McEwen common stock to CEO Robert McEwen in exchange for his Canadian Gold shares.
  • The Amendment will be filed with the SEC as an exhibit to McEwen’s next Form 10-K; press release is Exhibit 99.1 to the 8-K.

Why It Matters

  • The filing confirms completion of the announced transaction, which affects McEwen’s corporate structure and the conversion of Canadian Gold equity into McEwen shares.
  • The Amendment adds a shareholder-approval step before shares are issued to the company’s CEO, intended to ensure compliance with New York Stock Exchange requirements and to clarify the timing and process of any ownership change.
  • Investors should watch for the company’s forthcoming Form 10-K and the filed Amendment for more detail on potential share issuance, dilution, and changes to ownership or voting power. The 8-K and press release also include forward‑looking cautionary statements; consult McEwen’s SEC filings for full risk disclosures.
