Exhibit 99.1
Jaguar Mining Addresses NYSE Listing Standard
JAG - TSX/NYSE
BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil, Dec. 3, 2012 /CNW/ - Jaguar Mining Inc. ("Jaguar" or "the Company") (JAG: TSX) (JAG: NYSE) today announced that the New York Stock Exchange has notified the Company that it has fallen below the NYSE's continued listing standard relating to the price of its common stock. The NYSE requires that the average closing price of a listed company's common stock be above $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. As of November 30, 2012, the date of the NYSE notice, the 30 trading-day average closing price of Jaguar's common stock was $0.94 per share.
Under the NYSE's rules, Jaguar has a period of six months to bring its share price and 30 trading-day average share price back above $1.00. During this period, Jaguar's common stock will continue to be traded on the NYSE, subject to compliance with all other NYSE continued listing requirements. As required by the NYSE in order to maintain its listing, Jaguar will notify the NYSE by December 14, 2012 that it intends to cure the price deficiency.
Commenting on the NYSE notification, David Petroff, Jaguar's President and CEO stated, "We are taking measured, thought-out steps in the execution of a comprehensive strategy designed to restore profitability and deliver improved value creation for our shareholders. We are now beginning to see traction from our turnaround efforts initiated earlier in the year and continued success in our cost reduction efforts within the operations. We expect this will lead to improved financial results and stability over 2013."
