Additionally, Aurora would like to announce that along with the filing of its annual financial statements, it expects to file other annual disclosure documents – including the Annual Information Form. Furthermore, Aurora announced that it has scheduled its Annual General Meeting of shareholders, which due to the COVID-19 pandemic, will be held virtually on Tuesday, November 12, 2020 at 10:00 am Mountain time.

As part of its annual disclosure documents and following the Company’s first year of Sarbanes Oxley Act (SOX) section 404 implementation for the year ending June 30, 2020, the Company is currently validating but expects to report certain material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control framework. These material weaknesses are a result of a number of significant changes to the Company during the fiscal year, including the Business Transformation Plan announced in February 2020. The Company is already in the process of remediating identified control deficiencies, and does not expect any changes to its previously reported financial results as a result of these material weaknesses.
