Auxly Stock Trades Up on News of $84 Million Term Sheet

Ever since Imperial Brands (OTCQX:IMBBY) announced in July that it will be investing $123 million in the company, Auxly stock has garnered significant attention. Of course, it has its bad days; but the deal has put a spotlight on the company, with Bruce Campbell now saying from a business perspective, Auxly is the way to go. And based on yesterday's announcement by the company, that seems like a reasonable statement.

On Wednesday, August 14, Auxly Cannabis Group announced that its joint venture partner, Sunens Farms Inc., signed a term sheet for $84 million for a syndicated credit facility. All of the proceeds from the Credit Facility will go toward funding phase one of the Sunens facility; it is expected to be completed this winter. More details on the deal can be read here.
