TORONTO, Sept. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hampton Financial Corporation (“Hampton” or the “Corporation”) (TSXV:HFC & HFC.PR.A) announces that it is refiling its unaudited interim financial statements for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, together with the corresponding MD&A, to reflect certain restated results for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2021 which are also included as comparative numbers in the May 31, 2022 interim financial statements previously filed.

During the course of a review of the May 31, 2022 financial statements it was determined by management of the Corporation, and agreed to by the Corporation’s auditors, that it was necessary to revise certain comparative results for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2021. These revisions, which relate to valuation of marketable securities and warrants and the calculation of share-based compensation, result in the reallocation of net income between successive quarters of the fiscal year ended August 31, 2021. Hampton would like to emphasize that these revisions affect only profit and loss and respective cash flow allocations between successive quarters and do not involve any balance sheet items previously reported for the interim period ended May 31, 2021. Moreover, previously reported numbers for revenues, expenses and net income, as well as net cash flows, for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2021 have remained unchanged. There have been no changes to any of the previously reported numbers related to fiscal year 2022. Consequently, the Corporation is refiling the interim financial statements for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, together with the corresponding MD&A, to reflect the restated results for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2021.
