Mega Uranium To Restate Financial Statements

TORONTO, Dec. 14, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mega Uranium Ltd. (TSX: MGA) announces that it will be restating its audited annual financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2017 (the “2017 Annual Statements”) and its interim financial statements for the first three quarters of the 2016, 2017 and 2018 financial years (the “Interim Statements”).  The restatements are all due to deferred tax accounting errors that were identified during the preparation and audit of the company’s annual financial statements for the 2018 financial year.

The incorrect tax rate was applied when calculating the unrealized gain on one of the company’s investments, net of taxes, in the 2017 Annual Statements. Additionally, the company did not record deferred income tax recovery in respect of the investment on a quarterly basis in the Interim Statements.  The adjustments to be made to all of the financial statements are quantitatively but not qualitatively material and impact non-cash items.

The 2017 Annual Statements will be restated in the company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2018, which will be filed on SEDAR under Mega’s issuer profile prior to the end of December. It is also anticipated that the restated Interim Statements (and related Management’s Discussion & Analysis) will be filed prior to the calendar year end. The company will be undertaking a review of its processes and procedures relating to tax accounting in light of the restatements.

The adjustments to the financial statements are set out below and are estimates. The final adjustments that are made as part of the restated financial statements may differ from the estimates. All financial information is reported in thousands of Canadian dollars, except for per share amounts.
