If you purchased Aurora common stock on the New York Stock Exchange between October 23, 2018, and February 28, 2020, you may be eligible to claim compensation from a class action settlement.

Aurora Cannabis Inc. has agreed to pay $8,050,000 to settle a class action lawsuit for alleged misrepresentations of the company’s business and prospects.

Who are the class members?

Class members include all individuals and entities who purchased Aurora common stock on the New York Stock Exchange between October 23, 2018, and February 28, 2020.

How much can class members get?

The plan of allocation estimates the average distribution to be $0.05 per share.

The settlement provides a fund of $8.05 million to be distributed among eligible class members. The amount each member receives will depend on several factors, including the number of valid claims submitted and the total number of shares purchased.

Recognized Claim Amount: Calculated based on the difference between the purchase price and the sale price of the shares, adjusted for inflation and other factors.
