Marijuana company Aurora Cannabis Inc. has applied to list its shares on the New York Stock Exchange.

The shares are expected to trade in New York under the ticker symbol ACB, the same as their listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

The Edmonton-based company states that it is subject to the approval of the New York Stock Exchange, and the satisfaction of all listing and regulatory requirements.

Aurora expects trading on the NYSE to start before the end of the month.

BNN Bloomberg has been in the company for the past six months, and has been in talks with Coca-Cola Co. to develop pot-infused drinks.

However, Aurora said at the time that it is engaging in exploratory talks from time to time, there was no deal to announce.
