Why your vote matters

Article content

Nasdaq listing rules require a quorum of 33 1/3% of outstanding shares entitled to vote, present or by proxy at the Meeting. Given Canopy Growth’s shareholder base, reaching quorum depends on strong participation – if it isn’t met, the Meeting must be adjourned at additional cost to the Company. Shareholders of record as of July 31, 2026, are eligible to vote; we encourage voting in advance even if you plan to attend live.

Article content

The Meeting Materials are filed on EDGAR and SEDAR+ under the Company’s profile at www.sedarplus.ca. The annual report is available at: https://canopygrowth.com/agm/.
