Multistate operator Red White & Bloom Brands has moved forward with its bid to buy Aleafia Health, months after a failed attempt to acquire the insolvent Canadian cannabis producer.
Toronto-based Red White & Bloom (RWB) said Thursday it “has been selected as the successful bidder” for Aleafia and some of its subsidiaries through the proceedings under Canada’s Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA).

The purchase price put forward in the stalking-horse bid was estimated in an August report by court-appointed CCAA monitor KSV Restructuring to be between 25 Canadian dollars and CA$29 million ($18.3 million-$21.2 million).
The subsidiaries purchased from Aleafia will be transferred to RWB via a reverse vesting transaction, along with “specific intellectual property owned, licensed or leased by Aleafia Health,” RWB said.
