Emerald Clinics Ltd (ASX:EMD) has been as much as 40% higher this morning on news that it intends to change its name to Emyria Limited as part of a rebranding consistent with its global ambitions and expanded offerings.

Shares have been up to 40% higher to 8.5 cents this morning and are currently trading at 7.6 cents.
