Latest Little Green Pharma (ASX:LGP) News

Rare earths, lithium and antimony stocks drove the week, while a handful of capital raisings and profit warnings hit hard. The biggest gains came from drilling wins and deal news. The sharpest falls came where investors faced dilution, weaker earnings or takeover friction.

Small-cap healthcare names produced the biggest share-price swings this week, while larger names advanced on sales growth, trial progress and fresh contracts. Investors rewarded companies that showed clear commercial traction, but fundraising and weak follow-through punished others.

Little Green Pharma Ltd (ASX:LGP) has secured overwhelming shareholder approval from Cannatrek Ltd for its proposed acquisition scheme, advancing the transaction toward Federal Court approval and implementation by early May 2026.

Big moves came from point-of-care testing and a sharp sell-off in two names despite upbeat news. Meanwhile, several smaller caps pushed trials and regulatory files forward, giving investors clear dates to watch.

Little Green Pharma has issued a supplementary scheme booklet updating Cannatrek shareholders on the acquisition progress, including a revised timetable and the termination of a planned sale and leaseback of its WA production facility. Both companies’ boards continue to recommend the scheme, supported by an independent expert’s positive assessment.

A handful of small caps did the heavy lifting this week, led by a lung cancer trial green light and a steep sell-off after a capital raise. Investors paid up for clear clinical steps, but punished dilution and stocks that reopened lower and kept sliding.

Little Green Pharma has terminated its planned sale and leaseback of its Western Australian production facility after failing to reach commercial terms, choosing to retain ownership without impacting operations.

One stock nearly doubled, another jumped more than 40%, and a finance heavyweight stayed elevated after a merger shock. In resources, the winners were mostly tied to “what was bought” or “what was funded”, while the laggards were often the ones where early optimism quickly turned into selling.

Avecho and Chimeric both surged as traders chased near-term trial and funding catalysts, while Island Pharmaceuticals extended gains on a US biodefence partnership. Elsewhere, distribution and reimbursement wins supported smaller medtech names, and a cannabis merger plan kept Little Green Pharma in focus ahead of April’s vote.

Little Green Pharma Ltd (ASX: LGP) has proposed a full acquisition of Cannatrek Ltd via a scheme of arrangement, creating a vertically integrated medicinal cannabis group with pro forma FY26 revenues exceeding AUD 100 million. The scheme, supported by an independent expert, offers liquidity and strategic growth opportunities amid regulatory and market risks.

Two capital raisings and one brutal reset set the tone, even as several companies posted clean growth or strong clinical updates. Radiopharmaceuticals kept delivering good news, but investors still punished supply-chain and cash needs fast.

Little Green Pharma has entered a $7.8 million sale and leaseback agreement for its Western Australia production site, aiming to fuel growth in Australia and Europe while maintaining operational control.
