VANCOUVER, Feb. 6, 2018 /CNW/ - Helio Resource Corp ("Helio" or the "Company"; TSX-V: HRC) is pleased to announce that the TSX Venture Exchange has approved a consolidation of the Company's common shares (the "Shares") on the basis of one new Share for every 25 Shares currently issued and outstanding (the "Consolidation").

The Shares will commence trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on a consolidated basis at the open of markets on Thursday, February 8, 2018. On a post-Consolidation basis, the Company will have approximately 10,449,318 Shares. The Company's name and trading symbol will remain the same.

Instead, each fractional post-Consolidation Share remaining after conversion that is less than one-half of a post-Consolidation Share will be cancelled and each fractional post-Consolidation Share that is at least one-half of a post-Consolidation Share will be changed to one whole post-Consolidation Share.
The Company's options and warrants will also be adjusted on the same basis (25 for 1) as the Shares, with proportionate adjustments being made to exercise prices.
