PETRO-VICTORY ENERGY CORP. AND AZEVEDO & TRAVASSOS ENERGIA S.A. SIGN BINDING MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
DALLAS, July 4, 2025 /CNW/ - Petro-Victory Energy Corp. (TSXV: VRY) (" Petro-Victory" or the " Company") and Azevedo & Travassos Energia S.A. (" ATE") are pleased to announce the signing of a binding memorandum of understanding on July 2, 2025 (" MOU") pursuant to which Petro-Victory and ATE intend to complete an arm's length business combination by the acquisition by ATE of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company (the " Transaction"). The Transaction is intended to combine the businesses and assets of ATE and the Company and result in the Company becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of ATE. Under the Transaction, the current shareholders of the Company will become shareholders of ATE. The combination of the Company and ATE is expected to increase shareholder value through the development of ATE's growth strategy with the supplementation of the Company's diversified portfolio of production and exploration assets. Transaction Summary Pursuant to the Transaction, ATE will complete a capital increase by way of a private placement of 205,479,453 Units of ATE (" Units") at an issue price of R$0.73 (CAD$0.18) per Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of R$150,000,000.69 (or US$27,683,955.13 and CAD$37,533,870.17 based on today's conversion rate) (" Capital Increase"). Following the completion of the Capital Increase and all other conditions precedent, certain shareholders of the Company will convert certain claims held by them against the Company and its affiliates into new common shares in the capital of the Company (" PV Shares"). Thereafter, ATE will purchase 100% of the issued and outstanding PV Shares and will issue, in favor of the Company's shareholders, 266,000,000 ATE Shares, all of which are registered and without par value based on a price per ATE Share equal to R$0.73 (CAD$0.18) (" Share Consideration"). The Share Consideration shall be provided proportionately to the holders of PV Shares in their respective interests. As part of the Transaction, the Company's shareholders of record at closing will be entitled to a gross overriding royalty (" GORR") in the percentage of ten percent (10%) on the gross revenue from all new production arising from fields that already exist in the concessions owned by the Company prior to the MOU or that will be created after the date of the MOU in the concessions owned by the Company (" PV Fields"), except with respect to the production of the reservoirs of the São João Field that are the subject of the partnership between PVE and Eneva S.A. (" Eneva"). The GORR will apply, for each PV Field, for a period of fifteen (15) years from the start of its commercial production or, for existing fields that are already in production, from the Closing Date. The Company's shareholders of record at closing will also be entitled to receive certain contingent payments in connection with certain existing partnerships between the Company and its affiliates with third parties. In addition, ATE will assume all outstanding debt of the Company with the estimated enterprise value of the Transaction being approximately USD$39.5 million (CAD$53.6 million) including net debt and before considering any valuation for contingent payments (" Transaction Value"). The Transaction, Transaction Value and price of the Share Consideration will be subject the polices, rules and approvals of the TSX Venture Exchange (" TSXV") or such other recognized stock exchange upon which the Share Consideration is listed for trading. The Share Consideration represents a premium of approximately CAD$2.15 to the Company's shareholders based on the closing price of the Company as of the market close on July 2, 2025 and based on the target price of R$0.73 (CAD$0.18) per share for the Share Consideration. The Transaction is subject to a number of conditions precedent including the completion of the Capital Increase on or before July 12, 2025, subject to a thirty (30) day extension in the sole discretion of ATE. Additionally, the Transaction is subject to a number of terms and conditions following the completion of the Capital Increase within one hundred and twenty (120) days of such completion, including, but not limited to, the parties entering into a definitive agreement (the " Definitive Agreement") with respect to the Transaction (such agreement to include representations, warranties, conditions and covenants typical for a transaction of this nature), the obtaining by both the Company and ATE of all corporate and governmental approvals applicable to their respective jurisdictions, the obtaining by both the Company and ATE of any consents from third parties of financial institutions, as applicable, and the completion of an audit by both the Company and ATE of any and all information relevant to the performance of financial, legal, operational, environmental, accounting and regulatory audits. Where applicable, the Transaction cannot close until the required shareholder approval is obtained. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all. Trading in the securities of the Company and ATE should be considered highly speculative. There will be no finder's fees associated with the Transaction. As of the date of this news release, the conversion rate between the Brazilian Real and the Canadian Dollar is 1:0.25 and the conversion rate between the Canadian Dollar and the US Dollar is 1:0.74. As such, the conversion rate between the Brazilian Real and the US Dollar is 1:0.18. Due Diligence In order to advance the Transaction to the point where a Definitive Agreement can be negotiated, each of the parties will conduct customary due diligence on the other party and following completion of satisfactory due diligence reviews, the parties expect to negotiate and execute a Definitive Agreement on or before the date that is one hundred and twenty (120) days from the date of the completion of the Capital Increase. Shareholder and TSXV Approval The Transaction, if completed as contemplated, will be a Reviewable Disposition, as defined in TSXV Policy 5.3, by the Company, and as such will be subject to the requirements of TSXV Policy 5.3. If the Transaction is completed, the Company will be making an application to voluntarily delist from the TSXV under TSXV Policy 2.9, as the acquisition by ATE of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company will cause the Company to no longer meet the listing requirements of the TSXV. The completion of the Transaction and the subsequent delisting is subject to the approval of both the shareholders of the Company and the TSXV, in accordance with TSXV requirements. The Company will seek the approvals of the TSXV and the Company's shareholders once the Capital Increase is complete and the Company and ATE enter into a Definitive Agreement.

Almonty fires up the turbo: Reaching new heights with tungsten and foresight
(Source: Pixabay ) Stockhouse does not provide investment advice or recommendations. All investment decisions should be made based on your own research and consultation with a registered investment professional. The issuer is solely responsible for the accuracy of the information contained herein. Almonty Industries (TSX:AII) is set to become a key player in strategic raw material security in 2025, and with good reason. Despite a fourfold increase in its share price and a market value of over CAD 1.2 billion, the story is far from over. Of particular concern are the intensifying international tensions between the power blocs of the US, Europe, and China, which show no signs of easing. At recent summit meetings, it became clear that neither side is willing to make concessions, even on minor issues. Tariffs, inflation, high debt, and a dire supply situation on the commodity markets are further exacerbating the political rifts between East and West. At the center of this storm are commodity producers and industrial buyers who depend on stable supply chains. Here is an update on our top pick: Almonty Industries. From niche player to key player: Almonty's global mission Almonty Industries (TSX:AII is one of the most dynamic rising stars of the year and is on the verge of a possible paradigm shift. What is currently unfolding in South Korea with the reopening of the Sangdong mine is nothing less than the establishment of the largest tungsten producer outside China at a time when geopolitical tensions are dramatically tightening the market for critical metals. Western governments are responding with strategic stockpiling policies and are increasingly turning to suppliers such as Almonty. The demand for non-Chinese supply chains is meeting a highly developed, almost operational project with enormous leverage. The fact that US defense companies are already securing long-term purchase agreements is an expression of deep confidence in the business model and an anticipation of future earnings jumps. Almonty is thus much more than a pure mining operator; the Company is poised to become a key geopolitical player in the supply of critical raw materials. The market is beginning to recognize the potential, but there is still a huge gap in terms of value compared to other listed critical raw material companies. Yesterday, the Company announced a technical change to its share structure: This involves a reverse split at a ratio of 1.5 to 1. The reason: To meet Nasdaq listing requirements, which mandate minimum share prices, typically above USD 3. Although Almonty's share price has already exceeded this threshold, the consolidation gives the Company additional security for the upcoming listing. Important for investors: The Consolidation of the share will take place on Monday. Anyone wishing to make value comparisons should therefore note the position value after the close of trading on Friday. Short sellers are unlikely to be happy at this point, as custodian banks tend to close positions before such dates. If settlement processes such as the conversion of securities accounts are delayed, some short sellers could find themselves under pressure in the short term. But what makes shorties sweat could mean special returns for long-term investors! It is like the equivalent of a seal of nobility The preparations for entry into the prestigious US market underscore the Company's intention to focus more on international investors in the future. A listing on the Nasdaq not only opens up access to well-capitalized funds and institutional investors, but also increases the chances of further index inclusions and greater visibility on the global market. For companies like Almonty, this is equivalent to a seal of quality, because only those who meet strict transparency, financial, and governance requirements make it to the world's most recognized stock exchange. In the long term, this could result in significant advantages in terms of capital raising and company valuation. **In the short term, it will lead to a notable increase in liquidity. Exciting times ahead! Stockhouse visits the Panasqueira mine in Portugal Recently, a visit was made to the Panasqueira site in Portugal. The mine, which is wholly owned by the Company, is located near Covilhã in the Castelo Branco region and is one of the world's oldest continuously operated tungsten mines. Since it began operations in 1896, it has developed into one of the most reliable sources of high-purity tungsten concentrate. Today, the mine processes around 700,000 to 800,000 tons of ore annually, producing approximately 100 to 120 tons of concentrate per month. The current focus is on developing a new mining level (Level 4), which is expected to increase production volumes and improve operational efficiency. Click here for an interesting video report: The share price continues to perform dynamically. Procyclical support from rising trading volumes and upward momentum. The journey is likely to continue! Source: LSEG as of July 3, 2025 The Almonty story is nothing short of impressive. There are likely only a few stocks worldwide whose business model aligns so perfectly with the current geopolitical landscape. Scarcity, global tensions, and fears of a new supply chain collapse: a volatile mix with plenty of fuel!
