Aurora Cannabis ( (TSE:ACB) ) just unveiled an announcement.

On February 3, 2026, Aurora Cannabis and its wholly owned subsidiary signed a definitive agreement to exchange all of Aurora’s common shares in Bevo Agtech for a new class of preferred shares, reshaping the economics and governance of its Bevo investment. The move will grant Aurora a 5% annual dividend on the value of the preferred shares, a significant share of Bevo Agtech’s eligible cash flow and liquidation proceeds, and standard preferred shareholder protections, while eliminating its board representation once the transaction closes.

The deal, which remains subject to Bevo Agtech shareholder approval and lender consent, will see Aurora deconsolidate Bevo Agtech from its financial statements and classify Bevo’s assets and liabilities as held-for-sale, with Bevo’s results restated as discontinued operations. Aurora will retain up to $40 million in potential earnouts tied to performance at the Aurora Sky and Aurora Sun facilities and will receive $5.5 million in cash for transferring shareholder loans to Bevo Farms, signaling a continued shift toward a more capital-light structure and focusing its balance sheet on core cannabis operations.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:ACB) stock is a Hold with a C$4.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Aurora Cannabis stock, see the TSE:ACB Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on TSE:ACB Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:ACB is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak cash-flow quality and poor technical momentum (price below key moving averages with bearish MACD). Offsetting factors include an improving operational trajectory with strong gross margins, a relatively manageable balance sheet, and a constructive earnings outlook centered on growing higher-margin global medical cannabis.
