“Today’s announcement by our Alberta-based corporations underscores our commitment to sustainable performance in Canadian cannabis. We are committed to building a consumer-centric model at scale, supported by SNDL’s robust shared service model, access to capital, and a well-developed cannabis retail pipeline,” commented Zach George, CEO of SNDL, on the transaction.

The acquisition of the cannabis retailer is expected to support the entire cannabis retail portfolio that has been assembled by SNDL by optimizing inventory management, expanding data programs, and enhance programming. The purchase is also expected to generate savings through streamlining of expenses associated with being a public company, and the optimization of general and administrative costs.

The transaction remains subject to shareholder approval, with a special meeting to approve the transaction slated to occur in early October, with the transaction expected to close by October 18.

SNDL last traded at $2.01 on the Nasdaq.
