GECDSB approves budget deficit for upcoming school year

Trustees for the Greater Essex County District School Board approved a nearly $1 million deficit for the upcoming fiscal year. June 17, 2025. (Robert Lothian/CTV News Windsor) Trustees for the Greater Essex County District School Board approved a nearly $1 million deficit for the upcoming fiscal year, pointing to underfunding and declining enrolment. Members received a grim snapshot of the board's finances on Tuesday afternoon before approving the 2025-2026 budget at its regular meeting. Shelley Armstrong, the board's superintendent of business and treasurer, outlined the pressures highlighted by 'inadequate' funding from the Ministry of Education. 'There are several areas where the board experiences funding deficits because the funding allocation is inadequate to support the current expense structure,' Armstrong told trustees. The budget outlines a preliminary deficit of $988,924 for the upcoming school year, but Armstrong noted that could change depending on enrolment. Cuts and reductions were previously outlined in the board's multi-year financial recovery plan approved in November. Under the changes, the board will cut some positions, and eliminate or phase out the International Baccalaureate program at multiple schools. The Rise Program, a special education program providing individualized programming for students, will also be scaled back. Several trustees stated the deficit would be erased if there was sufficient annual funding from the province. 'What we have is an inadequate funding model that leaves our board and every other board across the province at risk for decisions that are made at tables that we don't even have a seat at,' said trustee Ron Le Clair. Trustees plan to send a letter to the provincial and federal governments highlighting desired changes and funding needs. However, Mario Spagnuolo, president of the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario Greater Essex County local, told CTV News more action is needed. 'This is not a spending problem, this is a funding problem,' Spagnuolo said. 'You have trustees seeing that across the province of Ontario, you have MPPs across the province ignoring that, so we need to work together as a community to say we need to improve our schools.' Another factor in the deficit is lagging enrolment levels based on current registration. The board currently projects to have about 954 fewer students, but that could still increase depending on registration levels. As part of its multi-year financial plan, the board must reach a balanced budget by the 2026-2027 school year. 'The budget process has always been difficult for as long as I've been a trustee because there are huge gaps in the funding that we have no control over,' Board chairperson Gale Hatfield told CTV News. If the board fails to meet budget targets, it risks the province taking action to implement measures of its own. Hatfield said she was 'confident' they will meet the necessary steps to avoid such a case. 'The experience that other boards have had with supervision is that the ministry comes in and makes decisions without any consideration of local conditions or local needs of the community, and so I don't see how that would serve our students in the best way,' Hatfield said. When asked about the potential for future cuts to meet the targets, Armstrong said it's not off the table. 'Will there be further reductions coming? I would say it's fairly certain yes, we're going to have to do some more work,' Armstrong added. The budget is now pending approval by the education minister.

City taps brakes on parking lot to housing plan in OEV— but full speed ahead in SoHo

Municipal parking lot at 199 Ridout St. in London as seen on June 17, 2025. (Daryl Newcombe/CTV News London) Three municipal parking lots remain candidates for redevelopment into housing, but the next steps will occur at two different paces. On Tuesday, the Strategic Priorities and Policy Committee (SPPC) heard from stakeholders in the Old East Village (OEV) who want public consultation and further discussion with key stakeholders before deciding if most of the lot at 641 Queens Ave. should be redeveloped into a mix of low and medium-density housing. Kevin Morrison of the OEV Business Improvement Area told the committee, 'The BIA supports more affordable housing, that's not the question. However, how we get there is what really matters. If we're going to do this, we need to do it right.' Morrison asked the committee to defer any substantial decisions about 641 Queens Ave. until after public consultation this summer. However, Coun. Sam Trosow said he was satisfied with proceeding to next steps before completing the first round of public consultation, 'Build into this process, which is going to take a long time, many different decision points with consultation.' Morrison expressed other concerns including if the remaining parking lot would be large enough to accommodate tour buses visiting the Banting House National Historic Site, and that the lot was deemed 'underutilized' because daily usage of spots has recently been about 51 per cent. He argued that as revitalization of the business district continues, commercial vacancies will decline and the drive up the demand for parking. Deputy Mayor Shawn Lewis agreed that more time is needed to assess the future parking requirements, 'A 50 per cent more or less parking utilization doesn't seem like a very high amount, but I also appreciate the comment that there's a 40 per cent commercial vacancy right now.' The assessment of municipal parking lots for developability into housing was launched by Mayor Josh Morgan in early 2024 by utilizing his Strong-Mayor Powers. LONDON - QUEENS AVE - PLAN - JUNE 2025 Preliminary development plan for parking lot at 641 Queens Ave. 'It's actually quite a complicated site, as you can see with the land assembly, and it's probably relatively restricted in the amount of density that you could put in there,' Morgan told council colleagues. The next steps to make the parking lot shovel ready for developers would include an archeological investigation, land assembly, traffic impact study and geotechnical work. Staff estimate that work would cost $555,000 to complete. SPPC members voted to defer a decision to make the parking lot shovel ready until the end of this year, to allow time for more consultation and to determines if there is even going to be interest from developers. 'Let's slow this down,' the mayor told CTV News after the meeting. 'Let's take some time to consult with the community more and let's do a Request for Expressions of Interest to see if there's even an interest in developing that lot.' However, it remains full speed ahead for the two municipal lots in the SoHo neighbourhood just north of the Thames River (84 Horton St. and 199 Ridout St.). Morgan expressed excitement about advancing the lots directly to a Request for Proposals for 'as-is' offers from developers by the end of 2025. Three submissions have already been made, ranging between 450 units and 600 units, with between 10 per cent and 20 per cent being affordable housing. Each proposal also includes between 300 and 330 public parking spaces. The city will seek as-is offers because soils in the area are contaminated with coal tar left behind by the London Coal Gasification Site that operated from 1850 until 1930. The mayor explained his excitement to proceed to the next step, 'We got a little more work to do because it's a contaminated site, (but) if we were able to change that into residential development, that would be phenomenal for the area.'

Aurora Cannabis Files Full Year Results and Announces Fiscal 2025 Fourth Quarter

NASDAQ| TSX: ACB Achieves Record Annual Global Medical Cannabis Net Revenue 1 of $244.4 million, representing 39% YoY growth Delivers Record Adjusted EBITDA 1 of $49.7 million, representing 261% YoY growth Generates Annual Positive Free Cash Flow 1 of $9.9 million Sustains Strong Balance Sheet with ~$185.3 million of Cash and Debt-Free Cannabis Business 2 EDMONTON, AB, June 18, 2025 /CNW/ - Aurora Cannabis Inc. (the "Company" or "Aurora") (NASDAQ: ACB) (TSX: ACB), a leading Canada-based global medical cannabis company, today announced its financial and operational results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2025 periods ending March 31, 2025. "We are pleased to report an exceptional year to our shareholders, highlighted by record annual global medical net revenue 1, adjusted EBITDA 1, and positive free cash flow 1. These achievements underscore the thoughtful execution of our strategic plan, set us further apart from competitors, and strengthen our foundation for sustained and profitable growth," said Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer for Aurora, Miguel Martin. "Specific to Q4 2025, we ended our banner fiscal year by further strengthening our business model. International revenue more than doubled, representing 61% of global medical cannabis net revenue 1. Plant propagation also increased significantly as we benefited from peak seasonality along with organic expansion. These top-line gains were complemented by a sharp year over year increase in adjusted EBITDA 1 profitability and the third quarter of positive free cash flow 1 generation." concluded Mr. Martin. _________________________________ 1 This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are intended to supplement, not substitute for, comparable GAAP financial measures. See "Non-GAAP Measures" below for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures. 2 Aurora's only remaining debt is non-recourse debt of $61.7 million relating to Bevo Farms Ltd as detailed in the March 31, 2025 Financial Statements. Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights (Unless otherwise stated, comparisons are made between fiscal Q4 2025, Q3 2025, and Q4 2024 results and are in Canadian dollars) Consolidated Revenue and Adjusted Gross Profit: Total net revenue 1 was $90.5 million, as compared to $67.4 million in the prior year period. The 34% increase from the prior year period was mainly due to 48% growth in our global medical cannabis business and 32% growth in our plant propagation business, slightly offset by lower quarterly revenue in our consumer cannabis business. Consolidated adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments 1 was 62% in Q4 2025 and 50% in the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit before FV adjustments 1 was $54.2 million in Q4 2025 compared to $33.4 million in the prior year period, an increase of 62%. Medical Cannabis: Medical cannabis net revenue 1 was $67.8 million, a 48% increase from the prior year period, delivering 75% of Aurora's Q4 2025 consolidated net revenue 1 and 88% of adjusted gross profit before fair value adjustments 1. The increase in medical cannabis net revenue 1 of $22.1 million was primarily due to higher sales to Australia, Germany, Poland, and the UK, as well as increased revenue in Canada to insurance covered and self-paying patients. Adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments 1 on medical cannabis net revenue 1 reached 70% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to 66% in the prior year period. The adjusted gross margins before fair value adjustments 1 improved through sustainable cost reductions, higher selling prices, and improved efficiency in production operations, including sourcing for Europe from Canada. Consumer Cannabis: Aurora's consumer cannabis net revenue 1 was $8.2 million a 20% decrease compared to $10.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease was due to our continued decision to prioritize the supply of our GMP manufactured products to our high margin global medical cannabis business rather than the consumer business, which offers lower margins. Adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments 1 on consumer cannabis net revenue 1 was 27%, an increase from 16% compared to the prior year period. The increase from the prior year period is primarily due to cost improvements resulting from spend efficiencies. Plant Propagation: Plant propagation net revenue 1 was wholly comprised of the Bevo business, and contributed $13.8 million of net revenue 1, a 32% increase compared to $10.4 million in the prior year period. The increase was a result of organic growth and expanded product offerings, both arising from increased capacity. Adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments 1 on plant propagation revenue was 37% for Q4 2025 and 25% for the prior year period. The fluctuations in the plant propagation adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments 1 is due to product mix with higher margin sales. Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative ("Adjusted SG&A"): Adjusted SG&A 1 was $36.7 million in Q4 2025, which excludes $5.8 million of business transformation costs. The increase compared to the prior year period relates to higher freight and logistics costs, notably from sales to Europe with the increase in sourcing from Canada and incremental costs following the acquisition of MedReleaf Australia. Net Income (Loss): Net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $17.2 million compared to a net loss of $20.3 million for the prior year period. The decrease in net loss of $3.0 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 is comprised of a decrease in gross profit of $18.8 million and an increase in operating expenses of $3.0 million, offset with other income in the current period $10.5 million compared to other expenses of $18.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA 1 increased 619% to $16.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $2.3 million for the prior year period. Fiscal Q1 2026 Expectations: Expect continued strong global cannabis revenue driven by improved performance in Canadian medical, comparable performance in consumer, offset by temporary declines in some of our international markets. Taken together, global cannabis should be slightly lower compared to Q4 2025 and is expected to improve in later quarters due to increased distribution and further innovation. Seasonally higher revenues for plant propagation as they complete their peak quarter, in line with historical seasonal trends. Margins to hold strong and we expect positive adjusted EBITDA 1 to continue, with a decline versus Q4 FY25 due to lower revenue contributions from the higher margin international markets. Free cash flow 1 is projected to remain positive, due to continued strong performance and improved operating cash use. Historical Quarterly Results: In connection with the audit of the annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2025, the Company identified an error in inventory and cost of sales arising from intercompany profit eliminations, resulting in an overstatement of inventory and understatement of cost of sales. Additionally, the Company understated its lease liability during a period in which a rent concession was granted by the lessor. In respect of the Company's presentation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, the Company determined that certain previously reported restricted cash held within its captives was accessible to the Company and therefore not restricted. The unrestricted portion has been reclassified to cash and cash equivalents. The Company has concluded that these errors are not material to any of the Company's previously-issued audited consolidated financial statements and unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that an amendment to its previously-filed audited consolidated financial statements and unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements is not required. The revisions will be reflected in the comparative period of the Company's prospective condensed consolidated interim financial statements filings. There is no impact to the annual consolidated financial statements, however the comparative periods have been revised accordingly. The core balances impacted in the consolidated financial position and cash flow are: cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, inventory and property, plant and equipment. In the consolidated statement of income (loss) the core areas impacted are: cost of sales, gross profit and net income (loss). A summary of the impact to its previously filed audited consolidated financial statements and unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements can be found in the historical quarterly results section of the FY25 Q4 MD&A, filed June 18, 2025 (the "MD&A").
