BROOKFIELD, NEWS, May 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Corporation ("Brookfield") (NYSE: BN, TSX: BN) today announced it has received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") for the renewal of its normal course issuer bid to purchase up to 142,988,844 Class A Limited Voting Shares ("Class A Shares"), representing 10% of the public float of Brookfield's outstanding Class A Shares. Purchases under the bid will be made on the open market through the facilities of the TSX, the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), and/or alternative trading systems. The period of the normal course issuer bid will extend from May 27, 2024 to May 26, 2025, or an earlier date should Brookfield complete its purchases. Brookfield will pay the market price at the time of acquisition for any Class A Shares purchased or such other price as may be permitted.

布魯克菲爾德新聞,2024年5月23日(GLOBE NEWSWIRE)——布魯克菲爾德公司(“布魯克菲爾德”)(紐約證券交易所代碼:BN,多倫多證券交易所股票代碼:BN)今天宣佈,已獲得多倫多證券交易所(“TSX”)的正常發行人續購最多142,988,844股A類有限表決股票(“A類股票”)的申請,佔布魯克菲爾德公衆持股量的10% 已發行的A類股票。出價下的買入將通過多倫多證券交易所、紐約證券交易所(“NYSE”)和/或替代交易系統的設施在公開市場上進行。正常課程發行人的出價期限將從2024年5月27日延長至2025年5月26日,如果布魯克菲爾德完成收購,則更早的日期。布魯克菲爾德將爲購買的任何A類股票支付收購時的市場價格或其他可能允許的價格。

As at May 17, 2024, the number of Class A Shares issued and outstanding totaled 1,642,975,156 of which 1,429,888,442 shares represented the public float. In accordance with the rules of the TSX, the maximum daily purchase on the TSX under this bid will be 399,711 Class A Shares, which is 25% of 1,598,845 (the average daily trading volume for Class A Shares on the TSX for the six months ended April 30, 2024).

截至2024年5月17日,已發行和流通的A類股票總數爲1,642,975,156股,其中1,429,888,442股代表公衆持股量。根據多倫多證券交易所的規定,此次出價下多倫多證券交易所的最大每日購買量爲399,711股A類股票,佔1,598,845股(截至2024年4月30日的六個月中多倫多證券交易所A類股票的平均每日交易量)的25%。

Of the 142,042,619 Class A Shares approved for purchase under Brookfield's prior normal course issuer bid that commenced on May 25, 2023 and will expire on May 24, 2024, Brookfield purchased 27,869,934 Class A Shares as of May 17, 2024; 8,551,236 Class A Shares through open market purchases on the TSX and 19,318,698 Class A Shares through open market purchases on the NYSE. The weighted average price that Brookfield paid per Class A Share acquired under this bid was US$37.24.

在布魯克菲爾德此前於2023年5月25日開始並將於2024年5月24日到期的正常股權發行人競標下批准購買的142,042,619股A類股票中,布魯克菲爾德截至2024年5月17日購買了27,869,934股A類股票;通過在多倫多證券交易所公開市場購買了8,551,236股A類股票,通過公開市場購買在紐約證券交易所購買了19,318,698股A類股票。布魯克菲爾德在本次出價下收購的每股A類股票的加權平均價格爲37.24美元。

Brookfield is renewing its normal course issuer bid because it believes that, from time to time, the market price of its Class A Shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of its business and its future business prospects. Brookfield believes that, in such circumstances, the outstanding Class A Shares represent an attractive investment for Brookfield, since a portion of its excess cash generated on an annual basis can be invested for an attractive risk adjusted return through the issuer bid. All Class A Shares acquired by Brookfield under this bid will be cancelled and/or purchased by a non-independent trustee pursuant to the terms of Brookfield's long-term incentive plans.

布魯克菲爾德之所以延長其正常發行人的出價,是因爲它認爲其A類股票的市場價格不時可能無法完全反映其業務的潛在價值和未來的業務前景。布魯克菲爾德認爲,在這種情況下,已發行的A類股票對布魯克菲爾德來說是一項有吸引力的投資,因爲其每年產生的部分多餘現金可以通過發行人的出價投資以獲得誘人的風險調整後回報。根據布魯克菲爾德長期激勵計劃的條款,布魯克菲爾德在本次出價下收購的所有A類股票將由非獨立受託人取消和/或購買。

Brookfield intends to enter into an automatic share purchase plan on or about the week of June 17, 2024 in relation to the normal course issuer bid. The automatic share purchase plan will allow for the purchase of Class A Shares, subject to certain trading parameters, at times when Brookfield ordinarily would not be active in the market due to its own internal trading black-out period, insider trading rules or otherwise. Outside of these periods, Class A Shares will be repurchased in accordance with management's discretion and in compliance with applicable law.

布魯克菲爾德打算在2024年6月17日當週左右就普通股發行人的出價簽訂自動股票購買計劃。自動股票購買計劃將允許在某些交易參數的前提下購買A類股票,此時布魯克菲爾德由於自己的內部交易封鎖期、內幕交易規則或其他原因通常不會活躍在市場上。在這些期限之外,將根據管理層的自由裁量權和適用法律回購A類股票。

Forward-Looking Statements

前瞻性陳述

This news release contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of Canadian provincial securities laws and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and in any applicable Canadian securities regulations (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). Forward-looking statements include statements that are predictive in nature, depend upon or refer to future results, events or conditions, and include, but are not limited to, statements which reflect management's current estimates, beliefs and assumptions and which are in turn based on our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors management believes are appropriate in the circumstances. The estimates, beliefs and assumptions of Brookfield are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and other uncertainties and contingencies regarding future events and as such, are subject to change. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "expect", "anticipate", "believe", "foresee", "could", "estimate", "goal", "intend", "plan", "seek", "strive", "will", "may" and "should" and similar expressions. In particular, the forward-looking statements contained in this news release include statements referring to potential future purchases by Brookfield of its Class A Shares pursuant to the company's normal course issuer bid and automatic share purchase plan.

本新聞稿包含加拿大省級證券法所指的 “前瞻性信息” 和1933年《美國證券法》、1934年《美國證券交易法》、1995年《美國私人證券訴訟改革法》的 “安全港” 條款以及任何適用的加拿大證券法規(統稱爲 “前瞻性陳述”)所指的 “前瞻性陳述”。前瞻性陳述包括本質上是預測性的、取決於或涉及未來業績、事件或狀況的陳述,包括但不限於反映管理層當前估計、信念和假設的陳述,這些陳述反過來又基於我們對歷史趨勢、當前狀況和預期未來發展的經驗和看法,以及管理層認爲適合具體情況的其他因素。布魯克菲爾德的估計、信念和假設本質上受有關未來事件的重大商業、經濟、競爭和其他不確定性和突發性的影響,因此可能會發生變化。前瞻性陳述通常使用 “期望”、“預測”、“相信”、“預見”、“可以”、“估計”、“目標”、“打算”、“計劃”、“尋求”、“努力”、“將”、“可能” 和 “應該” 等詞語以及類似的表述來識別。特別是,本新聞稿中包含的前瞻性陳述包括提及布魯克菲爾德未來可能根據公司正常發行人的出價和自動股票購買計劃購買其A類股票的聲明。

Although Brookfield believes that such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable estimates, beliefs and assumptions, actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i)the impact or unanticipated impact of general economic, political and market factors in the countries in which we do business, including as a result of COVID-19 and related global economic disruptions; (ii) the behavior of financial markets, including fluctuations in interest and foreign exchange rates; (iii) global equity and capital markets and the availability of equity and debt financing and refinancing within these markets; and (iv) factors detailed from time to time in our documents filed with the securities regulators in Canada and the United States.

儘管布魯克菲爾德認爲此類前瞻性陳述基於合理的估計、信念和假設,但實際結果可能與前瞻性陳述存在重大差異。可能導致實際業績與前瞻性陳述所設想或暗示的業績存在重大差異的因素包括但不限於:(i)我們開展業務的國家中總體經濟、政治和市場因素的影響或意想不到的影響,包括 COVID-19 和相關的全球經濟混亂所造成的影響;(ii)金融市場的行爲,包括利率和外匯匯率的波動;(iii)全球股票和資本市場以及這些市場中股權和債務融資和再融資的可得性;以及(iv)我們在向證券監管機構提交的文件中不時詳述的因素在加拿大和美國。

We caution that the foregoing list of important factors that may affect future results is not exhaustive and other factors could also adversely affect future results. Readers are urged to consider these risks, as well as other uncertainties, factors and assumptions carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which are based only on information available to us as of the date of this news release. Except as required by law, Brookfield undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, that may be as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

我們警告說,上述可能影響未來業績的重要因素清單並不詳盡,其他因素也可能對未來的業績產生不利影響。我們敦促讀者在評估前瞻性陳述時仔細考慮這些風險以及其他不確定性、因素和假設,並提醒讀者不要過分依賴此類前瞻性陳述,這些陳述僅基於截至本新聞發佈之日我們獲得的信息。除非法律要求,否則布魯克菲爾德沒有義務公開更新或修改任何可能由新信息、未來事件或其他原因導致的前瞻性陳述,無論是書面還是口頭的。
