Strategem Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/24/16 -- Strategem Capital Corporation ("Strategem" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: SGE) is pleased to announce its intention to commence a normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") for up to 218,549 Class A common shares ("Shares"), representing up to 5% of its 4,370,999 Shares issued and outstanding.

Purchases will be by way of open market purchases through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") and the Company will pay the market price of the Shares at the time of acquisition. The Company will conduct the NCIB through Raymond James Ltd. All Shares purchased by the Company will be subsequently cancelled.

The Company has received approval from the Exchange to commence its NCIB on June 27, 2016. The bid will end on June 26, 2017 or earlier if the number of Shares sought in the NCIB has been obtained. The Company reserves the right to terminate the bid earlier if it determines such action to be appropriate. Although Strategem intends to purchase Shares under its NCIB, there can be no assurance that any such purchases will be completed.

The Company believes that the purchase of the Shares will increase the proportionate interest of, and be advantageous to, all remaining security holders. The normal course purchases will also afford an increased degree of liquidity in the market.
