-- Auxly Cannabis Group (XLY.TO) 週一表示，其對 Ayurcann Holdings Corp. (AYUR.CN) 資產的競標方案並未在法院監管的出售程序中被選中。 先前披露的資訊顯示，Auxly 在 Ayurcann 出售程序中提交了競標方案，同時向 Ayurcann 提供了最高 200 萬美元的債務人持有資產融資 (DIP Facility)。 根據出售程序條款，Auxly 的競標方案已被選為“替代方案”，如果最終競標未能在 2026 年 5 月 15 日前完成，Auxly 將以其最初的競標方案金額成為最終中標者。 作為最終競標的一部分，得標者將償還 DIP Facility 的本金及利息。此外，競標中擬定的分手費和費用補償將在成功收購完成後支付給該公司。 Auxly 執行長 Hugo Alves 在一份聲明中表示：「我們對 Ayurcann 的競標是機會主義的，並且取決於能否超過我們內部的回報率預期。我們的團隊將繼續密切關注與公司戰略高度契合的非內生性增長機會，同時，我們將繼續專注於業務的內生性增長。我們預計 2026 年將產生可觀的股東配置，並且正在最大限度地評估股東配置。 Auxly 的股票在多倫多證券交易所的最新報收於 0.125 美元，與前一日持平。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.

Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of United Rentals Inc.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target price to $1,100 from $950 following a strong first quarter, valuing shares at 20.5x our 2027 EPS outlook of $54.28 (in line with previous estimate; 2026 EPS also in line). We believe a higher multiple is justified given URI's firming market leadership within an expanding rental equipment industry. A robust Q1 beat enabled URI to raise its full-year revenue guidance to $16.9B-$17.4B and adjusted EBITDA to $7.625B-$7.875B, citing momentum heading into a busy season. With leverage well below historical levels, we believe accretive M&A deals could serve as a potential catalyst for additional guidance increases. Margin compression has been a sticky issue for URI, but Q1 indicated that pricing may have turned around and that headwinds are starting to ease as quarterly results begin to lap when tariff-related inflation began to pick-up. We remain cautious on margins, though are encouraged by signs of stabilization. New project activity is likely supporting pricing trends, in our view.
