As of Monday, July 24, Aurora Cannabis Inc. will commence trading of common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) under the trade symbol “ACB”. In conjunction with listing on TSX, the common shares have been voluntarily delisted from TSX Venture Exchange, effective close of trading today, Friday, July 21, 2017.
Aurora will “ring the bell” to open TSX on Monday, July 24, 2017.
According to Terry Booth CEO of Aurora, the company has been achieving record yields at their Mountain View County production facility, progressing rapidly with the construction of their 100,000+ kg per annum Aurora Sky facility at Edmonton International Airport, and are executing consistently on their national and international expansion strategy.
“Aurora’s graduation to TSX reflects the remarkable commercial and operational progress we have made since listing on TSX Venture Exchange late last year,” said Booth. “The acquisition of our third production facility, in Pointe-Claire, will further support our domestic growth. Our acquisition of Pedanios, Germany’s largest medical cannabis distributor, and our strategic investment in Australia’s Cann Group, have established Aurora as a global leader in the cannabis sector. Aurora continues to drive innovation in the industry, as evidenced by our research collaboration with and investment in Radient Technologies, the launch and upgrades of our one-of-a-kind mobile application, and the expansion of our same-day and next-day delivery program. We expect that graduating to TSX will further increase our shareholder audience, and represents another important strategic step in enhancing shareholder value.”
