LONDON, Ontario, June 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aduro Clean Technologies Inc.

Boral Capital LLC’s full exercise of its underwriter’s over-allotment option in connection with the Company’s previously announced underwritten U.S. public offering of common shares and accompanying warrants to purchase common shares (“Offering”).

The common shares issued pursuant to the over-allotment option were sold in combination with an accompanying half warrant (with each whole warrant being exercisable into one common share of the Company).
