Completion of Previously Announced Share Consolidation
NASDAQ | TSX: ACB
EDMONTON, AB, Feb. 20, 2024 /CNW/ - Aurora Cannabis
Inc. (the "Company" or "Aurora") (NASDAQ: ACB) (TSX: ACB), the Canadian based leading global medical
cannabis company, is pleased to announce today that Simona King, a former executive of Bristol Myers-Squibb, a leading multinational pharmaceutical
company, has been appointed as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective February 21, 2024. Ms. King brings over 25 years of progressive
finance leadership experience, with deep business knowledge and proven success with global and emerging organizations. She served nearly
20 years with Bristol Myers-Squibb, where she held increasingly senior finance roles and enabled the company's growth strategy. Glen Ibbott,
current Chief Financial Officer, will be stepping down from his full-time role effective today to pursue new opportunities. He will remain
in an advisory role over the next few months to ensure a smooth transition of responsibilities to Simona.
CFO Transition
"As our company continues to evolve, we are thrilled
to welcome Simona King to Aurora. Simona has spent her career growing businesses, improving operational
efficiencies, and leading a best- in-class global financial organization. Her deep operational and financial knowledge, combined with
her extensive experience across many corporate functions and deep commitment to developing talent, make her uniquely
positioned to help lead Aurora into its next phase of growth" said Miguel Martin, CEO.
Mr. Martin continued, "On behalf of our Board
of Directors, and the entire Aurora team, I would like to offer our sincere thanks and appreciation to Glen. Since 2017, Glen has dedicated
immeasurable time, energy, and passion to shaping Aurora into a leading medical cannabis company; and we have been fortunate to have his
leadership over the years as we navigated this emerging industry. We wish him all the best for his future endeavours."
Ms. King brings deep financial expertise across corporate,
operations and international business units. In recent years, she has spread her professional reach, joining fast moving public companies
in emerging sectors, including biotech. She joins Aurora most recently as the CFO of a number of clinical stage biotechnology
companies.
Share Consolidation
Aurora also announces the completion of its previously announced
consolidation of the common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") on a 10 to 1 basis (the "Consolidation").
The Common Shares will begin trading on a post-Consolidation basis on the NASDAQ Capital Market (the "NASDAQ") and the
