Akanda ( AKAN ) announced on Thursday that it expects to implement a 1-for-4.5 reverse stock split of the company's common shares effective April 13, 2026. The reverse stock split was previously approved by the company's shareholders on November 28, 2025, and the Board of Directors on March 23, 2026, and will begin trading on an adjusted basis, giving effect to the reverse stock split at the opening of the market on April 13, 2026, under the existing ticker symbol "AKAN". In accordance with the proposal approved by the company's shareholders on November 28, 2025, the company said it may effect one or more future consolidations of its issued and outstanding common shares based on a consolidation ratio to be selected by the Board within a range between two pre-consolidation common shares for one post-consolidation common share and 100 pre-consolidation common shares for one post-consolidation common share. Since then, the Board has determined to approve a reverse split within the 2-for-100 aggregate ratio approved by shareholders by fixing the split ratio at 4.5:1 so that every five common shares of the company would be automatically combined into one common share. This will reduce the number of outstanding common shares of the company from approximately 2.4 million to approximately 534.4 thousand. Source: Press Release More on Akanda Corp.

But the chorus soars out of the metaphorical cloud of dry ice, and Elizabeth Fraser’s voice is already outpacing her influences. Continue reading...
