Best Thing Aphria Can Do is.....From the worst to the best move.
The best move for Aphria when a suitor similar to Constellation comes looking for a 10% interest is to tell them to buy Aphria shares on the open market, which would result in a tighter float with no further dilution. (Where have we heard that before, oh right, Linton's interview on BNN at the Boston conference in the summer, right after he started whinning about Aphria). Canopy needed the cash without having the ability of debt financing. As GoBlue pointed out, Aphria has options that Canopy doesn't have going forward.
Tightening of the float is one of the best moves Aphria can make to enhance shareholder value.
Aphria is set up perfectly. Management is too smart to give it away prematurely.
