The board of Barksdale Resources Corp. announced a repricing of a previously arranged private placement with strategic investor Crescat Capital LLC. Under the revised arrangement the financing consists of 8,478,049 Units priced at $0.09 per Unit, which will generate gross proceeds of $763,024.41. This opening paragraph sets out the headline economics of the transaction while preserving the company’s stated objective of securing working capital for continuing corporate needs rather than project-specific deployment. The financing is structured to reflect recent market movements, and the company has confirmed that no finder’s fee will be paid in connection with the placement.
The composition of each Unit and the related exercise mechanics are central to understanding investor exposure. Each Unit comprises one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (so that two Units create one whole Warrant), and each whole Warrant will permit the purchase of one common share at an exercise price of $0.15. The exercise period for those warrants is two (2) years from the date of issuance. The company has stated that proceeds will be used to cover ongoing corporate expenses. This release replaces the company’s prior announcements dated March 10, 2026 and February 11, 2026.

Details of the offering
The transaction price and unit count are the direct outcome of market conditions observed by management and the strategic investor. The placement of 8,478,049 Units at $0.09 per Unit yields total gross proceeds of $763,024.41, funds that management expects to deploy to general corporate purposes. Investors who subscribe under this repriced arrangement will receive immediate equity exposure plus optional upside through the attached warrants. By packaging shares and warrants together, the Company aims to balance present capital needs with future potential capital formation should warrant holders elect to exercise at the specified $0.15 price point during the two-year window.
Warrant mechanics and implications
The warrants attached to the Units serve as an equity kicker and are designed to give Crescat a contingent path to additional ownership if the market value of the shares appreciates. Each full Warrant allows acquisition of one share at $0.15 and is exercisable for a period of two (2) years. From an investor perspective the warrants increase the effective upside while limiting near-term dilution to the issued shares; from the company’s perspective they can provide follow-on cash when exercised. These mechanics are consistent with commonplace private placement structures used by junior resource issuers to align investor incentives with exploration and development progress.
Regulatory and related-party considerations
The participation of Crescat Capital LLC in the Offering is treated as a related party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (MI 61-101), which governs certain transactions with insiders and related parties. Management has confirmed that Crescat’s subscription will be exempt from formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements under MI 61-101 because neither the fair market value of the securities to be acquired by Crescat nor the consideration paid exceeds 25% of the company’s market capitalization. This exemption streamlines completion while preserving disclosure standards that alert minority security holders to the nature of the relationship and the transaction.
Practical impact for shareholders
Because the Offering qualifies for the stated MI 61-101 exemption, the company will not seek separate minority shareholder consent or an independent valuation in relation to this specific placement. Nevertheless, the board has disclosed the material facts and reiterated that the proceeds are intended for ongoing corporate expenses rather than immediate project capital. Shareholders should note the potential for future dilution if and when warrants are exercised, and market participants will observe how the company deploys the proceeds to preserve or enhance shareholder value.
