TORONTO and GLIL YAM, Israel - IM Cannabis Corp. (NASDAQ: IMCC) (CSE: IMCC), a medical cannabis company with operations in Israel and Germany, announced the results of its annual general and special meeting held on Friday, May 23, 2025. The company, currently trading at $1.91 and showing strong momentum with an 11% gain over the past week according to InvestingPro, has recently caught investors’ attention despite its modest market capitalization of $6.7 million. Shareholders voted in favor of all resolutions, including the election of directors, the reappointment of the auditor, and approval of new control persons and transactions.

The meeting saw 60 shareholders, representing 45.84% of the company’s issued and outstanding common shares, elect five directors and re-appoint Fahn Kanne & Co. Grant Thornton Israel as the auditor. Shareholders also approved Oren Shuster and Rafael Gabay as control persons, the completion of the Focus Transaction, and the adoption of a new equity incentive plan.

Concurrent with the meeting outcomes, the company closed the Focus Transaction on May 26, 2025, settling the purchase price through the issuance of common shares. The shares issued are subject to a four-month hold period and applicable U.S. securities laws.

Additionally, the company completed a secured debenture offering on the same day, raising C$2,301,174.70. The debentures, maturing on May 26, 2026, are convertible into common shares at a price of C$2.61 per share. Oren Shuster and Rafael Gabay, both insiders of the company, participated in the offering.

Following these transactions, Shuster and Gabay, along with Ewave—a privately-held entity they jointly own—increased their ownership in IM Cannabis. Shuster’s holdings now represent approximately 26.68% of the company’s common shares on a non-diluted basis, and Gabay’s holdings account for approximately 15.40%. InvestingPro data reveals the company’s challenging financial position, with a current ratio of 0.72 indicating potential liquidity constraints.
