Organigram to acquire Aurora Cannabis for about C$561M, backed by BAT private placement and ATB credit facilities
Organigram Global and Aurora Cannabis signed an arrangement agreement on November 2, 2026 (announced November 3) for Organigram to buy all Aurora shares through a court-approved plan of arrangement. Aurora holders can choose C$7.80 per share in cash, shares, or a mix, subject to proration. Funding includes a C$187.5M private placement from British American Tobacco's subsidiary and up to C$210M in ATB senior secured credit facilities. Aurora can still consider a superior proposal, which may include Curaleaf's existing hostile bid if its terms change, and both sides have termination and reverse-termination fees.
