AURORA CANNABIS SELECTED AS SOLE WINNER IN ITALIAN CANNABIS TENDER

Aurora Cannabis Inc. has been selected as the only winner of the Italian government's public tender to supply medical cannabis in Italy. The supply contract is expected to be signed in September, 2019.

The tender saw five companies participate, with Aurora selected as the sole winner of three lots to supply the Italian market, which is one of the most strictly regulated medical cannabis markets in the world. The decision will see Aurora continue to supply the Italian market with medical cannabis, as it has done for the past 15 months, further to winning the first ever tender there in January, 2018. All submissions from competing cannabis companies were disqualified because they were unable to meet the stringent requirements of the tender.

Aurora will supply a minimum of 400 kilograms of medical cannabis over the two-year contract with the cannabis coming from its Canadian EU GMP-certified facilities and imported to Italy through Aurora Deutschland, its wholly owned European subsidiary. The cannabis will be sold to Agenzia Industrie Difesa (an agency of the Italian Ministry of Defence) for distribution to local pharmacies, who dispense directly to patients.

"We're committed to building a successful, long-term medical cannabis market in Italy," said Neil Belot, Aurora's chief global business development officer. "We want to continue to build our connection with patients and pharmacies in the Italian market, who have come to know and appreciate our products over most of the past two years. I'm extremely proud of our team. This win reflects our ability to navigate complex international regulations and work with governments around the world to establish ourselves as a trusted partner."

Axel Gille, managing director of Aurora Deutschland GmbH, added: "The well-being of our patients is our top priority and we're dedicated to ensuring they have access to a consistent supply of safe, high-quality medical cannabis. We look forward to expanding our presence in Italy and continuing to work with other international regulators to ensure patients around the world have access to our high-quality medical cannabis."
