The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

Aurora Cannabis, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired all shares of Safari Flower Company, an EU GMP certified cannabis cultivator and manufacturer, for aggregate consideration of $26.5 million. Payment combines cash and Aurora common shares, with a portion contingent on conditions.
