The OTCQX Best 50 is an annual ranking of the top 50 U.S. and international companies traded on the OTCQX Best Market.

The ranking is calculated based on an equal weighting of one-year total return and average daily dollar volume growth in the previous calendar year. Companies in the 2020 OTCQX Best 50 were ranked based on their performance in 2019.
Amir Adnani, Chairman, stated: "We are pleased to be recognized in the OTCQX Best 50. This marks the third time since 2015 that our company has been selected in this list of top performers. On behalf of management, I thank our shareholders for their continued support. During the most recent gold bear market, we made numerous opportunistic acquisitions that we believe uniquely position us with the most expansive multi-jurisdictional gold resource portfolio in the Americas."
