Auxly Cannabis Group consolidates its shares 14-for-1, cutting the count from roughly 1.42 billion to 101.3 million. Post-consolidation TSX trading is expected around July 28, 2026, under the existing XLY ticker.

  • Operators: A consolidation changes the share count, not ownership stakes. CEO Hugo Alves frames it as coming from strength, after a record 2025, with continued growth expected in net revenue, profitability and cash flow.
  • Investors: Each shareholder's proportional ownership is unchanged. Auxly says the move is not a step toward financing or dilution, and points to its NCIB buyback as proof it is repurchasing shares, not issuing them.

Auxly Cannabis Group Inc. (TSX: XLY) (OTCQB: CBWTF) said on Wednesday that it will consolidate its shares on a 14:1 basis. The move reduces the share count, leaving each shareholder’s proportional ownership unchanged.

What Happened

The company’s board gave the green light to consolidation on June 30, selecting the 14:1 ratio. The company anticipates post-consolidation trading to start on the TSX around July 28, 2026, under the existing ticker XLY, while OTCQB: CBWTF remains unchanged, the company said in a press release.

The outstanding shares will decrease from roughly 1.42 billion to 101.3 million, subject to fractional share adjustments, Auxly said.

Why It Matters

CEO Hugo Alves said the move is made from a position of strength. He highlighted record financial performance in 2015, a strong balance sheet, and continued improvement in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, to name a few.

“Coming off a record year in 2025, our financial results continue to strengthen, our balance sheet is the strongest it has been in years, and we have a disciplined framework for deploying capital where it can generate the highest returns for our shareholders,” Alves said. “We are building to last, and our outlook is for continued growth in net revenue, profitability and cash flow generation.”

Alves said this move doesn’t represent a step toward a financing or share dilution. The NCIB share buyback program demonstrates the company is buying back its shares, not issuing new ones.

CBWTF Price Action

Auxly’s shares traded 6.15% higher at $0.138 per share at the time of writing on Thursday.

A rising stock price is one thing, but what drives it over the long term? Behind every market move are decisions about capital allocation, profitability, execution, M&A opportunities, financing strategies, regulatory developments, and relationships built across the table.
