TORONTO - Canopy Growth Corp. has signed a deal to buy the Supreme Cannabis Company Inc. in an agreement valued at $435 million. The acquisition adds Supreme Cannabis’s premium brands, 7Acres and 7Acres Craft Collective, as well as others to Canopy’s roster of offerings.

Supreme Cannabis shareholders will receive 0.01165872 of a Canopy common share and 0.01 of a cent in cash for each Supreme Cannabis share held.
The offer is worth 44 cents per Supreme Cannabis share.
