Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 19, 2024) - Torex Gold Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "Torex") (TSX: TXG) announces that it has received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") of its notice of intention to make a normal course issuer bid (the "NCIB").

Under the NCIB, Torex is authorized to purchase up to 7,116,777 of its common shares ("Common Shares"), representing approximately 10% of the public float as of November 13, 2024, during the period commencing on November 21, 2024 and ending on November 20, 2025. As of November 13, 2024, Torex had a total of 85,986,971 Common Shares issued and outstanding and a public float of 71,167,776 Common Shares.

Torex believes that the establishment of the NCIB provides the Company with the flexibility to acquire Common Shares from time to time as an effective means of returning capital to its shareholders in accordance with its corporate strategy.

Purchases under the NCIB will be made on the open market through the facilities of the TSX and other alternative trading systems in Canada at a price per Common Share representative of the market price at the time of acquisition. The number of Common Shares that can be purchased pursuant to the NCIB is subject to a current daily maximum of 66,028 Common Shares (which is equal to 25% of the average daily trading volume of 264,115 Common Shares on the TSX for the six full calendar months ending October 31, 2024), subject to the Company's ability to make one block purchase of Common Shares per calendar week that exceeds such limits. All Common Shares purchased under the NCIB will be cancelled after their purchase. The Company intends to fund any purchases under the NCIB from its available working capital.

Outside of blackout periods, Common Shares may be purchased under the NCIB based on the discretion of Torex's management, in compliance with the rules of the TSX and applicable securities laws.

Although Torex has the present intention to acquire its Common Shares pursuant to the NCIB, Torex will not be obligated to make any purchases and purchases may be suspended by Torex at any time. Decisions regarding any future repurchases will depend on certain factors, such as market conditions, share price and other opportunities to invest capital for growth.
