Los Andes Copper has announced that Queen’s Road Capital Investment will convert its US$5 million eight per cent convertible debenture into common shares of the company effective April 8, 2026, at a conversion price of C$10.82 per share. Based on accrued interest and exchange rates, the debenture plus interest totals approximately C$6.91 million, which is expected to be fully settled in equity, subject in part to regulatory approval.

Under existing terms, a maximum of 558,502 shares can be issued on conversion without additional TSX Venture Exchange approval, leaving C$866,375 of the amount to be converted pending regulatory consent. The company plans to seek TSX-V approval to issue a further 80,071 shares, for a total of 638,573 shares, a move that will eliminate this debt and modestly increase the company’s share count while reinforcing long-term support from a key resource-focused financier.

Spark’s Take on LA Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, LA is a Neutral.

The score is primarily constrained by weak financial performance (no revenue, widening losses, and ongoing cash burn) and limited valuation support due to negative earnings. Technicals are also soft in the near term (below key short-term averages with negative MACD), partially offset by a stronger longer-term trend and a relatively solid balance sheet with moderate leverage.
