Badlands Announces Effective Date of Share Consolidation

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – May 22, 2026) – Badlands Resources Inc. (TSXV: BLDS) (FSE: B7Q) (“Badlands” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange to consolidate the Company’s outstanding common shares on the basis of one new common share for every three and one-half common shares (the “Consolidation“).

The Consolidation will take effect at the start of trading on May 27, 2026, and the Company will trade under the new CUSIP/ISIN numbers 056600208/CA0566002089. As a result of the Consolidation, the 11,307,265 common shares issued and outstanding prior to the Consolidation will be reduced to approximately 3,230,647 common shares. Each shareholder’s percentage ownership in the Company and proportionate voting power will remain unchanged after the Consolidation, except for minor changes and adjustments resulting from the treatment of any fractional common shares. As a result of the Consolidation, if a shareholder becomes entitled to receive a fraction of a common share, such fractional share, if less than one-half, will be rounded down to zero (and cancelled) and, if equal to or greater than one-half, will be rounded up to one and added to the number of shares to be held by the shareholder.

In connection with the Consolidation, the Company’s registrar and transfer agent, Endeavor Trust Corporation, will send letters of transmittal to registered holders of its common shares for use in transmitting their existing share certificates (“Existing Certificates“) to new certificates (“New Certificates“) representing the number of post-Consolidation common shares to which each shareholder is entitled.

No delivery of a New Certificate to a shareholder will be made until the shareholder has surrendered its Existing Certificates. Until surrendered, each Existing Certificate shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of post-Consolidation common shares to which the holder is entitled.

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as such term is defined in policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
