• Neutral Sentiment: Earlier bought‑deal announcements showed staged increases (initially C$15M, then C$17.25M), indicating the financing was being scaled — this signals demand from underwriters but exact pricing/structure and shareholder dilution depend on final terms. Raises Up to C$17.25 Million
• Negative Sentiment: The market reacted negatively to the upsized bought‑deal: the stock fell sharply on heavy volume as investors priced in near‑term dilution and increased share supply tied to the financing. Stock Tumbles After Increased Bought Deal
