Cronos Group Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(In thousands of U.S. dollars, except share amounts)	Table of Contents

1. Background, Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

(a)Background

Cronos Group Inc. (“Cronos Group” or the “Company”) is incorporated in the province of British Columbia and under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) with principal executive offices at 111 Peter St., Suite 300, Toronto, Ontario, M5V 2H1. The Company’s common shares are currently listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “CRON.”

Cronos Group is an innovative global cannabinoid company committed to building disruptive intellectual property by advancing cannabis research, technology and product development and is seeking to build an iconic brand portfolio. Cronos Group’s diverse international brand portfolio includes Spinach®, PEACE NATURALS®, Lord Jones®, Happy Dance® and PEACE+®.

(b)Basis of presentation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Cronos Group are unaudited. They have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission relating to interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other reporting period.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”).

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations and ending shareholders’ equity.

(c)Segment information

Segment reporting is prepared on the same basis that the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) manages the business, makes operating decisions and assesses the Company’s performance. The Company determined that it has the following two reportable segments: U.S. (the “U.S. segment”) and ROW (the “ROW segment”). The U.S. operating segment consists of the manufacture and distribution of U.S. hemp-derived cannabinoid infused products. The ROW operating segment is involved in the cultivation, manufacture, and marketing of cannabis and cannabis-derived products for the medical and adult-use markets. These two segments represent the geographic regions in which the Company operates and the different product offerings within each geographic region. The results of each segment are regularly reviewed by the CODM to assess the performance of the segment and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources using Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) as the measure of segment profit or loss. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, non-cash items and items that do not reflect management’s assessment of ongoing business performance.

(d)Concentration of risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities, primarily accounts receivable and other receivables, and its investing activities, including cash held with banks and financial institutions, short-term investments, loans receivable, and advances to joint ventures. The Company’s maximum exposure to this risk is equal to the carrying amount of these financial assets, which amounted to $992,385 and $1,118,684 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on the days past due for groupings of various customer segments with similar loss patterns. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, amongst others, the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan and a failure to make contractual payments for a period of greater than 120 days past due. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $2 and $8, respectively, in expected credit losses that have been recognized on receivables from contracts with customers in the ROW segment. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $457 and $104, respectively, in expected credit losses that have been recognized on receivables from contracts with customers in the U.S. segment.

As of December 31, 2021, 88% of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from four customers with an established credit history with the Company.

The Company sells products to a limited number of major customers. Major customers are defined as customers that each individually accounted for greater than 10% of the Company’s revenue. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $12,094 from three major customers in the ROW segment, together accounting for 56% of the Company’s total net revenues before excise taxes. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the ROW segment earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $12,256 from three major customers, together accounting for 60% of the Company’s total net revenues before excise taxes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $36,564 from three major customers in the ROW segment, together accounting for 54% of the Company’s total net revenue before excise taxes.

(e)Adoption of new accounting pronouncements

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06, Debt –Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815–40) (“ASU No. 2020-06”). ASU No. 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. ASU No. 2020-06 is part of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in U.S. GAAP. The adoption of ASU No. 2020-06 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

(f)New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU No. 2022-02”). ASU No. 2022-02 eliminates the existing troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance, and instead aligns the accounting treatment to that of other loan modifications. The amendments enhance existing disclosure requirements and introduce new requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. ASU No. 2022-02 also requires that entities disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases. ASU No. 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and is to be adopted prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2022-02 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU No. 2022-03”). ASU No. 2022-03 clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also require additional disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and is to be adopted prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2022-03 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

(b)Other investments

Other investments consist of investments in common shares and options of two companies in the cannabis industry.

PharmaCann, Inc.

In 2021, the Company purchased an option (the “PharmaCann Option”) to acquire 473,787 shares of Class A Common Stock of PharmaCann Inc. (“PharmaCann”), a vertically integrated cannabis company in the United States, which represented an ownership interest of approximately 10.5% as of December 31, 2021. The PharmaCann Option is classified as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value. The Company has elected to measure the fair value of the PharmaCann Option at cost less impairment, if any, and subsequently adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. On February 28, 2022, PharmaCann closed the previously announced transaction with LivWell Holdings, Inc. (“LivWell”) pursuant to which PharmaCann acquired LivWell (the “LivWell Transaction”). LivWell is a multi-state cannabis cultivation and retail leader based in Colorado. As a result of the LivWell Transaction, the Company’s ownership percentage in PharmaCann on a fully-diluted basis decreased to approximately 6.4%. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s ownership percentage in PharmaCann on a fully-diluted basis was approximately 6.3%. The decrease in the Company’s ownership percentage since acquisition does not materially affect the Company’s rights under the PharmaCann Option.

Cronos Australia Limited

The Company owns approximately 10% of the outstanding common shares of Cronos Australia Limited (“Cronos Australia”). The investment is considered an equity security with a readily determinable fair value. Changes in the fair value of the investment are recorded as gain (loss) on revaluation of financial instruments on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). During the three months ended September 30, 2022, Cronos Australia declared a dividend of AUD $0.01 per ordinary share. Based on the Company’s holding of 55,176,065 ordinary shares in the capital of Cronos Australia, the Company recorded dividend income of $390 within other, net on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

During both the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company identified adverse forecast changes in the financial performance of PharmaCann as indicators of impairment related to the PharmaCann Option and conducted analyses comparing the PharmaCann Option’s carrying amount to its estimated fair value. The fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was estimated using a combination of the market and income approaches, and the fair value for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was estimated using the income approach. Under the income approach, significant inputs used in the discounted cash flow method include discount rate, growth rates, and cash flow projections. As a result of these analyses, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $11,238 and $28,972 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively, as the difference between the carrying amount of the PharmaCann Option and its estimated fair value in the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company had no gain or loss on revaluation of other investments. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not hold any additional other investments.

Fluctuations in the expected life of the derivative instruments and the Company’s share price are primary drivers for the changes in the derivative valuations during each reporting period. As the expected period of time the derivative liability is expected to be outstanding decreases and the share price decreases, the fair value typically decreases for each related derivative instrument. Weighted-average expected life and share price are two of the significant observable inputs used in the fair value measurement of each of the Company’s derivative instruments.

The fair values of the derivative liabilities were determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model using the following inputs:

	As of September 30, 2022
	Altria Warrant	Pre-emptive Rights	Top-up Rights
Share price at valuation date (per share in C$)	$3.87	$3.87	$3.87
Subscription price (per share in C$)	$19.00	$16.25	$16.25
Weighted-average risk-free interest rate(i)	3.67%	3.52%	3.64%

(i)The risk-free interest rate was based on Bank of Canada government treasury bills and bonds with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the derivative liabilities. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the risk-free interest rate uses a range of approximately 3.52% to 3.80% and 0.16% to 1.10%, respectively, for the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights.

(ii)The expected life represents the period of time, in years, that the derivative liabilities are expected to be outstanding. The expected life of the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights is determined based on the expected term of the underlying options, warrants, and shares, to which the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights are linked. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the expected life uses a range of approximately 0.25 years to 3.00 years and 0.25 years to 3.75 years, respectively, for the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights.

(iii)Volatility was based on an equally weighted blended historical and implied volatility level of the underlying equity securities of the Company.

The following table quantifies each of the significant inputs described above and provides a sensitivity analysis of the impact on the reported values of the derivative liabilities. The sensitivity analysis for each significant input is performed by assuming a 10% decrease in the input while other significant inputs remain constant at management’s best estimate as of the respective dates. While a decrease in the inputs noted below would cause a decrease in the carrying amount of the derivative liability, there would also be an equal and opposite impact on net income (loss).

	10% decrease as of September 30, 2022
	Altria Warrant		Pre-emptive Rights		Top-up Rights
Share price	$	20	$	—	$	12
Weighted-average expected life	18		—		15
Expected annualized volatility	27		—		15

	10% decrease as of December 31, 2021
	Altria Warrant		Pre-emptive Rights		Top-up Rights
Share price	$	3,970	$	80	$	123
Weighted-average expected life	2,971		171		133
Expected annualized volatility	5,402		96		155

These inputs are classified as Level 3 on the fair value hierarchy and are subject to volatility and several factors outside the Company’s control, which could significantly affect the fair value of these derivative liabilities in future periods.

7. Restructuring

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company initiated a strategic plan to realign the business around its brands, centralize functions and evaluate the Company’s supply chain (the “Realignment”). As part of the Realignment, on February 28, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved plans to leverage the Company’s strategic partnerships to improve supply chain efficiencies and reduce manufacturing overhead by exiting its production facility in Stayner, Ontario, Canada (the “Stayner Facility”). The Realignment initiatives being undertaken are intended to position the Company to drive profitable and sustainable growth over time.

The Company expects to incur approximately $6,100 in connection with the Realignment, including the planned exit of the Stayner Facility, of which $4,878 has been incurred as of September 30, 2022. Estimated charges related to the exit of the Stayner Facility include employee-related costs such as severance, relocation and other termination benefits, as well as contract termination and other related costs. The Company expects to incur approximately $1,200 in additional charges related to the Realignment, including the planned exit of the Stayner Facility.

The Company incurred the following restructuring costs by reportable segment:

	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Rest of World	$	387	$	—	$	3,396	$	—

(a)Share-based award plans

The Company has granted stock options, restricted share units (“RSUs”) and deferred share units (“DSUs”) to employees and non-employee directors under the Stock Option Plan dated May 26, 2015 (the “2015 Stock Option Plan”), the 2018 Stock Option Plan dated June 28, 2018 (the “2018 Stock Option Plan” and, together with the 2015 Stock Option Plan, the “Prior Option Plans”), the Employment Inducement Award Plan #1 (the “Employment Inducement Award Plan”), the 2020 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan dated March 29, 2020 (the “2020 Omnibus Plan”) and the DSU Plan dated August 10, 2019 (the “DSU Plan”). The Company can no longer make grants under the Prior Option Plans or the Employment Inducement Award Plan.

The following table summarizes the total share-based compensation expense associated with the Company’s stock options, RSUs and liability-classified awards for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,

Liability-classified awards(i)	597		—		597		—
Total share-based compensation	$	4,265	$	2,667	$	10,567	$	7,731

(i)Represents share-based payment awards conditionally approved for grant in the three months ended September 30, 2022 to one of the Company’s former executives for a fixed monetary value, but a variable number of shares. These awards are liability-classified until the number of shares is determined.

(b)Stock options

Vesting conditions for grants of options are determined by the Compensation Committee. The typical vesting for stock option grants made under the 2020 Omnibus Plan is annual vesting over three to five years with a maximum term of ten years. The typical vesting for stock option grants made under the Prior Option Plans is quarterly vesting over three to five years with a maximum term of seven years. The Prior Option Plans did not, and the 2020 Omnibus Plan does not, authorize grants of options with an exercise price below fair market value.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

(a)Commitments

There have been no material changes in the information regarding commitments as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report.

(b)Contingencies

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business and in connection with its marketing, distribution and sale of its products. Many of these legal proceedings are in the early stages of litigation and seek damages that are unspecified or not quantified. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe these legal proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition but could be material to its results of operations for a quarterly period depending, in part, on its results for that quarter.

(i)Class action complaints relating to restatement of 2019 interim financial statements

On March 11 and 12, 2020, two alleged shareholders of the Company separately filed two putative class action complaints in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against the Company and its Chief Executive Officer and now former Chief Financial Officer. The court has consolidated the cases, and the consolidated amended complaint alleges violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder against all defendants, and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the individual defendants. The consolidated amended complaint generally alleges that certain of the Company’s prior public statements about revenues and internal control were incorrect based on the Company’s disclosures relating to the Audit Committee of the Board’s review of the appropriateness of revenue recognized in connection with certain bulk resin purchases and sales of products through the wholesale channel. The consolidated amended complaint does not quantify a damage request. Defendants moved to dismiss on February 8, 2021.

On June 3, 2020, an alleged shareholder filed a Statement of Claim, as amended on August 12, 2020, in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, seeking, among other things, an order certifying the action as a class action on behalf of a putative class of shareholders and damages of an unspecified amount. The Amended Statement of Claim names (i) the Company, (ii) its Chief Executive Officer, (iii) now former Chief Financial Officer, (iv) former Chief Financial Officer and Chief Commercial Officer, and (v) current and former members of the Board as defendants and alleges breaches of the Ontario Securities Act, oppression under the Ontario Business Corporations Act and common law misrepresentation. The Amended Statement of Claim generally alleges that certain of the Company’s prior public statements about revenues and internal control were misrepresentations based on the Company’s March 2, 2020 disclosure that the Audit Committee of the Board was conducting a review of the appropriateness of revenue recognized in connection with certain bulk resin purchases and sales of products through the wholesale channel, and the Company’s subsequent restatement. The Amended Statement of Claim does not quantify a damage request. On June 28, 2021, the Court dismissed motions brought by the plaintiff for leave to commence a claim for misrepresentation under the Ontario Securities Act and for certification of the action as a class action. The plaintiff appealed the Court’s dismissal of the motions only with respect to the Company, the Chief Executive Officer, and the now former Chief Financial Officer; the remaining defendants were dismissed from the matter with prejudice, and the Company and all individual defendants agreed not to seek costs from plaintiff in connection with the dismissal of the motions. On September 26, 2022, the Court of Appeal for Ontario reversed the Superior Court’s dismissal of the leave and certification motions, granted the plaintiff leave to proceed to bring a claim for misrepresentation under the Ontario Securities Act, and remitted the certification motion back to the Superior Court.

(ii)Regulatory reviews relating to restatements

The Company has been responding to requests for information from various regulatory authorities relating to its previously disclosed restatement of its financial statements for the first three quarters of 2019 as well as the previously disclosed restatement of the second quarter of 2021 interim financial statements (collectively, the “Restatements”). The Company has been responding to all such requests for information and cooperating with all regulatory authorities.

SEC Settlement

On October 24, 2022, the SEC issued an Order Instituting Cease-and-Desist Proceedings Pursuant to Section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21(c) of the Exchange Act, Making Findings, and Imposing a Cease-and-Desist Order (the “Settlement Order”) resolving the Restatements.

The Company has agreed to settle with the SEC, without admitting or denying the allegations described in the Settlement Order. The Settlement Order fully and finally disposes of the investigation of the Company by the SEC into the Restatements without the payment of any civil penalty or other amount.

The Settlement Order required the Company to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations and any future violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act, Sections 10(b), 13(a), 13(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange Act and Rules 10b-5, 13a-13, 13a-15(a), 13a-16 and 12b-20 thereunder. Additionally, the Company agreed to certain undertakings, which include, among other things, retaining a qualified independent consultant (the “Consultant”) to engage in a review of, and make recommendations with respect to, certain of the Company’s internal accounting controls and internal control over financing reporting.

As a result of the Settlement Order, the Company will (i) lose its status as a well-known seasoned issuer for a period of three years, (ii) be unable to rely on the private offering exemptions provided by Regulations A and D under the Securities Act for a period of five years and (iii) be unable to rely on the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for a period of three years.

OSC Settlement

On October 24, 2022, the Ontario Capital Markets Tribunal approved a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) between the Company and the staff of the OSC, resolving the Restatements.

Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, which fully and finally disposes the investigation of the Company by the OSC, Cronos agreed to pay a total of C$1.34 million to fully settle the matter, and acknowledged that it had failed to comply with the requirement under Section 77 of the Securities Act (Ontario) to file interim financial reports in the manner set out therein and had acted in a manner contrary to the public interest. Additionally, the Company agreed to retain the Consultant to engage in a review of, and make recommendations with respect to, certain of the Company’s internal accounting controls and internal control over financing reporting, on substantially the same terms as were required by the SEC pursuant the Settlement Order.

(iii)Litigation relating to marketing, distribution and sale of products

On June 16, 2020, an alleged consumer filed a Statement of Claim on behalf of a class in the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta in Alberta, Canada, against the Company and other Canadian cannabis manufacturers and/or distributors. On December 4, 2020, a Third Amended Statement of Claim was filed, which added a second alleged consumer. The Third Amended Statement of Claim alleges claims related to the defendants’ advertised content of cannabinoids in cannabis products for medicinal use on or after June 16, 2010 and cannabis products for adult use on or after October 17, 2018. The Third Amended Statement of Claim seeks a total of C$500 million for breach of contract, compensatory damages, and unjust enrichment or such other amount as may be proven in trial and C$5 million in punitive damages against each defendant, including the Company. The Third Amended Statement of Claim also seeks interest and costs associated with the action. The Company has not responded to the Third Amended Statement of Claim. On January 31, 2022, upon consent of the Company and the plaintiffs, the court dismissed the case in its entirety as to the Company.

A number of claims, including purported class actions, have been brought in the U.S. against companies engaged in the U.S. hemp business alleging, among other things, violations of state consumer protection, health and advertising laws. On April 8, 2020, a putative class action complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against Redwood Holding Group, LLC (“Redwood”), alleging violations of California’s Unfair Competition Law, False Advertising Law, Consumers Legal Remedies Act, and breaches of the California Commercial Code for breach of express warranties and implied warranty of merchantability with respect to Redwood’s marketing and sale of U.S. hemp products. The complaint did not quantify a damage request. On April 10, 2020, the class action complaint was dismissed for certain pleading deficiencies and the plaintiff was granted leave until April 24, 2020 to amend the complaint to establish federal subject matter jurisdiction. On April 28, 2020, the action was dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute and for failure to comply with a court order. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the plaintiff has not refiled the complaint.

The Company expects litigation and regulatory proceedings relating to the marketing, distribution and sale of its products to increase.

12. Fair Value Measurements

The Company complies with ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. In general, fair values are determined by:

•Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves.

•Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	September 30, 2022
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Cash and cash equivalents	$	633,296	$	—	$	—	$	633,296
Short-term investments	255,452		—		—		255,452
Other investments(i)	24,375		—		—		24,375
Derivative liabilities	—		—		73		73

	December 31, 2021
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Cash and cash equivalents	$	886,973	$	—	$	—	$	886,973
Short-term investments	117,684		—		—		117,684
Other investments(i)	8,000		—		—		8,000
Derivative liabilities	—		—		14,375		14,375

(i)As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s influence on Cronos Australia is deemed non-significant and the investment is considered an equity security with a readily determinable fair value. See Note 3 “Investments” for additional information.

There were no transfers between fair value categories during the periods presented.

13. Impairment Loss on Long-lived Assets

(a)Right-of-use assets and property, plant, and equipment, net

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $1,986 related to the right-of-use lease asset associated with the Company’s corporate headquarters, encompassing approximately 29,000 square feet, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, for which the Company determined it would seek a sublease. In addition, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $1,507 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 related to leasehold improvements and other office equipment that it plans to include in any potential sublease agreement. The determination to seek a sublease of the property and include leasehold improvements and other office equipment in any potential sublease agreement triggered the impairment charges. Both of the impairment charges are recognized as impairment loss on long-lived assets on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $1,039 related to leasehold improvements located within leased premises, encompassing approximately 6,000 square feet, in Los Angeles, California, which the Company determined it no longer had plans to use. The significant change in the extent and manner in which the leasehold improvements are being used and the expectation that, more likely than not, the leasehold improvements will be disposed of before the end of their useful life triggered an impairment. The right-of-use lease asset associated with the leasehold improvements was also written down as a result of the Company’s decision to no longer use the leased premises. The Company recognized an impairment charge on the de-recognition of the right-of-use asset of $702 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Both of the impairment charges are recognized as impairment loss on long-lived assets on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company reassessed the existence of impairment indicators on property, plant and equipment associated with sales channels in the U.S. segment. The Company determined that slower actual revenue growth as compared to previous growth forecasts and significant pricing pressures brought about by increased competition and aggressive discounting in sales channels in the U.S. segment represented indicators of impairment. As a result, a quantitative impairment analysis was required as of June 30, 2021. As such, the Company reassessed its estimates and forecasts as of June 30, 2021, to determine the fair values of the property, plant and equipment using an undiscounted cash flow methodology. Significant inputs include growth rates and cash flow projections. As a result of the analysis as of June 30, 2021, the Company concluded the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment associated with sales channels in the U.S. segment exceeded its fair value, which resulted in impairment charges of $1,214 on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

No impairment charges were recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 on property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets.

(b)Intangible assets, net

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $1,784 on definite-lived intangible assets for the difference between the consideration paid to Ginkgo for the achievement of certain milestones in connection with the Ginkgo Collaboration Agreement and the fair value of the Ginkgo exclusive license intellectual property. See Note 5 “Intangible Assets, net” for additional information. The impairment charge is recognized as impairment loss on long-lived assets on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

No impairment charges were recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 on definite-lived intangible assets.

The Forward-Looking Statements contained herein are based upon certain material assumptions that were applied in drawing a conclusion or making a forecast or projection, including: (i) our ability to efficiently and effectively exit the Stayner Facility, receive the benefits of the Stayner Facility wind down and acquire raw materials on a timely and cost-effective basis from third parties, including Cronos GrowCo; (ii) our ability, and the abilities of our joint ventures and our suppliers and distributors, to effectively deal with the restrictions, limitations and health issues presented by the COVID-19 pandemic and the ability to continue our production, distribution and sale of our products and customer demand for and use of our products; (iii) management’s perceptions of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments; (iv) our ability to generate cash flow from operations; (v) general economic, financial market, regulatory and political conditions in which we operate; (vi) the production and manufacturing capabilities and output from our facilities and our joint ventures, strategic alliances and equity investments; (vii) consumer interest in our products; (viii) competition; (ix) anticipated and unanticipated costs; (x) government regulation of our activities and products including, but not limited to, the areas of taxation and environmental protection; (xi) the timely receipt of any required regulatory authorizations, approvals, consents, permits and/or licenses; (xii) our ability to obtain qualified staff, equipment and services in a timely and cost-efficient manner; (xiii) our ability to conduct operations in a safe, efficient and effective manner; (xiv) our ability to realize anticipated benefits, synergies or generate revenue, profits or value from our acquisitions into our existing operations; (xv) our ability to realize the expected cost-savings, efficiencies and other benefits of our Realignment and employee turnover related thereto; (xvi) our ability to complete planned dispositions, and, if completed, obtain our anticipated sales price; (xvii) our ability to exercise the PharmaCann Option and realize the anticipated benefits of the transaction with PharmaCann; and (xviii) other considerations that management believes to be appropriate in the circumstances. While our management considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to management, there is no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct.

By their nature, Forward-Looking Statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties that may be general or specific and which give rise to the possibility that expectations, forecasts, predictions, projections or conclusions will not prove to be accurate, that assumptions may not be correct, and that objectives, strategic goals and priorities will not be achieved.

Such factors include, without limitation, that we may not be able to exit the Stayner Facility in an organized fashion or achieve the anticipated benefits of the exit or be able to access raw materials on a timely and cost-effective basis from third parties, including Cronos GrowCo; the risk that the COVID-19 pandemic and the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine may disrupt our operations and those of our suppliers and distribution channels and negatively impact the demand for and use of our products; the risk that cost savings and any other synergies from the Altria Investment may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; the risk that we will not complete planned dispositions, or, if completed, obtain our anticipated sales price; the implementation and effectiveness of key personnel changes; the risks that our Realignment, the closure of the Stayner Facility and our further leveraging of our strategic partnerships will not result in the expected cost-savings, efficiencies and other benefits or will result in greater than anticipated turnover in personnel; future levels of revenues; consumer demand for cannabis and U.S. hemp products; our ability to manage disruptions in credit markets or changes to our credit ratings; future levels of capital, environmental or maintenance expenditures, general and administrative and other expenses; the success or timing of completion of ongoing or anticipated capital or maintenance projects; business strategies, growth opportunities and expected investment; the adequacy of our capital resources and liquidity, including but not limited to, availability of sufficient cash flow to execute our business plan (either within the expected timeframe or at all); our ability to raise capital under Regulation D under the Securities Act and to qualify as a well-known seasoned issuer; the potential effects of judicial, regulatory or other proceedings, or threatened litigation or proceedings, on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows; volatility in and/or degradation of general economic, market, industry or business conditions; compliance with applicable environmental, economic, health and safety, energy and other policies and regulations and in particular health concerns with respect to vaping and the use of cannabis and U.S. hemp products in vaping devices; the anticipated effects of actions of third parties such as competitors, activist investors or federal (including U.S. federal), state, provincial, territorial or local regulatory authorities or self-regulatory organizations; changes in regulatory requirements in relation to our business and products; legal or regulatory obstacles that could prevent us from being able to exercise the PharmaCann Option and thereby realizing the anticipated benefits of the transaction with PharmaCann; dilution of our fully-diluted ownership of PharmaCann and the loss of our rights as a result of that dilution; our remediation of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and the improvement of our control environment and our systems, processes and procedures; and the factors discussed under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of the Annual Report. Readers are cautioned to consider these and other factors, uncertainties and potential events carefully and not to put undue reliance on Forward-Looking Statements.

Business Overview

Cronos Group is an innovative global cannabinoid company committed to building disruptive intellectual property by advancing cannabis research, technology and product development and are seeking to build an iconic brand portfolio. Cronos Group’s diverse international brand portfolio includes Spinach®, PEACE NATURALS®, Lord Jones®, Happy Dance® and PEACE+®.

Strategy

Cronos Group seeks to create value for shareholders by focusing on four core strategic priorities:

•growing a portfolio of iconic brands that responsibly elevate the consumer experience;

•developing a diversified global sales and distribution network;

•establishing an efficient global supply chain; and

•creating and monetizing disruptive intellectual property.

Business segments

We report through two segments: “United States” (the “U.S. segment”) and “Rest of World” (the “ROW segment”). These two segments represent the geographic regions in which we operate and the different product offerings within each geographic region.

The U.S. segment manufactures, markets and distributes U.S. hemp-derived supplements and cosmetic products through e-commerce, retail and hospitality partner channels in the United States under the brands Lord Jones®, Happy Dance® and PEACE+®.

The ROW segment is involved in the cultivation, manufacture, and marketing of cannabis and cannabis-derived products for the medical and adult-use markets. In Canada, Cronos Group operates two wholly owned license holders under the Cannabis Act (Canada) (the “Cannabis Act”), Peace Naturals Project Inc. (“Peace Naturals”), which has production facilities near Stayner, Ontario (the “Stayner Facility”), and Thanos Holdings Ltd., known as Cronos Fermentation (“Cronos Fermentation”), which has a production facility in Winnipeg, Manitoba. In Israel, the Company operates under the IMC-GAP, IMC-GMP and IMC-GDP certifications required for the cultivation, production and marketing of dried flower, pre-rolls and cannabis oils in the Israeli medical market. Cronos Group has established three strategic joint ventures in Canada, Israel and Colombia. Additionally, as of September 30, 2022, Cronos Group held approximately 10% of the issued capital of Cronos Australia Limited (“Cronos Australia”), which is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange under the trading symbol “CAU.”

Recent Developments

COVID-19 update

In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was identified in Wuhan, China. Since then, COVID-19 has spread across the globe, including the U.S., Canada and Israel, and other countries in which Cronos Group or its affiliates operate (including Australia and Colombia) and was recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a sharp contraction in many areas of the global economy and increased volatility and uncertainty in the capital markets. In response to the pandemic, the governments of many countries, provinces, states, municipalities, and other geographic regions took preventative or protective actions, including closures of certain businesses, mandatory quarantines, limits on individuals’ time outside of their homes, travel restrictions and social distancing or other preventative measures. Such measures were eased or lifted in varying degrees by different governments of various countries, states and municipalities since implementation in 2020, but the continued spread of COVID-19 and increased infection rates has caused, and may continue to cause, some jurisdictions to roll back reopening plans that had been underway and re-impose quarantines, border closures, closure of certain businesses and stay-at-home orders.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the global economy and, specifically, the U.S., Canada, Israel, and the other countries in which Cronos Group or its affiliates operate (including Australia and Colombia). We continue to closely monitor and respond, where possible, to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. As the global situation continues to change rapidly, ensuring the health and safety of our employees remains one of our top priorities.

In the U.S., numerous states have continued to remove their COVID-19 related restrictions. This has resulted in the re-opening of, and increased occupancy capacities in, retail outlets, including those that sell our products. Any reinstatement of restrictions on the operations of retail outlets could negatively impact our short-term results of operations in the U.S. Recently in the U.S., there have been a number of supply chain challenges, such as container ships facing delays due to congestion in ports, impacting many industries, including the industries in which we operate. Although we have not yet seen a significant impact from supply chain disruptions, we continue to monitor our supply chain closely.

In Canada, COVID-19 restrictions began gradually easing at the end of June 2021 as the vaccination rate increased. The lockdown measures taken in the first six months of 2021 to slow infection rates negatively impacted our short-term revenue growth in Canada in 2021. The increase in cases related to the Omicron variant of COVID-19 beginning in December 2021 caused the reinstatement of some restrictions on non-essential retail stores in some provinces, including Quebec, in early 2022; however, those restrictions have eased in most other provinces. Each province is responsible for implementing re-opening plans and certain provinces, including Ontario, are progressing through phases of re-opening which may permit continued increases to the allowance of in-person shopping, typically in the form of percentage of store capacity. All provinces have some form of cannabis retail open to consumers, and most provinces have lifted the requirement that retail shoppers show proof of vaccination before entering retail stores. The potential for recurring retail restrictions is ongoing, which could negatively impact our results of operations.

In Israel, most COVID-19 restrictions have been removed as vaccination rates have increased. Occupancy limitations in retail outlets have been removed, including those that sell our products. We do not expect the remaining COVID-19 restrictions to have a material impact on our short-term revenue growth in Israel.

Collectively, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have adversely affected our results of operations and, if the effects continue unabated, could continue to do so as long as measures to combat the COVID-19 pandemic remain in effect or supply chains continue to be challenged. At this time, neither the duration nor scope of the disruption can be predicted; therefore, the ultimate impact to our business cannot be reasonably estimated, but such impact could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Despite the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that our significant cash on hand and short-term investments will be adequate to meet liquidity and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Strategic and Organizational Update

In the third quarter of 2022, following the decision to begin a phased exit of the wholesale beauty category in the U.S. business in the second quarter of 2022, the Company continued to reduce operating expenses in the U.S. to better align the business structure with the new strategy to focus on adult-use product formats in the direct-to-consumer channel.

Due to the restructuring of the U.S. business and other newly identified cost savings opportunities, the Company now expects to incur approximately $6.1 million in expenses in connection with the Realignment, a decrease from the previously stated $6.4 million.

The Company now anticipates exiting the Peace Naturals Campus in 2023 due to longer than anticipated transition timing for contract manufacturers, lead times on required equipment, and the receipt of necessary regulatory licenses. As the Company continues its transition out of the Peace Naturals Campus in Stayner, Ontario into 2023, it anticipates that it will begin to incur the majority of the expected capital expenditures related to the Realignment.

Brand and Product Portfolio

In the third quarter of 2022, Cronos Israel was awarded a prestigious Clio Award in the Social Good category for the PEACE NATURALS® brand campaign in partnership with the Warriors for Life Association in Israel.

In October 2022, the Company continued to expand its gummy offering with the launch of SOURZ by Spinach™ Tropical Triple Berry 2:1 CBD:THC. This marks Cronos’ first CBD dominant edible in the Canadian adult-use market for those looking for a more mellow low-dose experience.

In November 2022, Cronos will launch two infused pre-rolls in Canada. The first, under the Spinach® brand is called Fully Charged Atomic GMO, which will be offered in a 5-pack with 0.5 grams per pre-roll. Secondly, Cronos is launching a CBG infused pre-roll under the Spinach FEELZ™ brand called Tropical Diesel CBG, which will be offered in a 3-pack with 0.5 grams per pre-roll.

(i)Gross margin is defined as gross profit divided by net revenue.

Net revenue

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we reported consolidated net revenue of $20.9 million, representing an increase of $0.5 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we reported consolidated net revenue of $69.0 million, representing an increase of $20.4 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the increase was primarily due to higher cannabis flower sales in the Israeli medical market and higher cannabis extract sales in the Canadian adult-use market, partially offset by a reduction in revenue in the U.S. segment, lower cannabis flower sales in the Canadian adult-use market driven by an adverse price/mix shift and the impact of the weakening Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar during the current period.

36

Cost of sales

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we reported consolidated cost of sales of $19.8 million, representing a decrease of $1.4 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we reported consolidated cost of sales of $56.8 million, representing an increase of approximately $0.7 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three-month comparative period, the decrease was primarily due to lower cannabis biomass costs, lower sales volumes in the U.S. segment and the impact of the weakening Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar during the current period, partially offset by higher sales volumes in the ROW segment and lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner Facility. For the nine-month comparative period, the increase was primarily due to higher sales volumes in the ROW segment and lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner facility, partially offset by lower cannabis biomass costs, lower sales volumes in the U.S. segment and the impact of the weakening Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar during the period.

Inventory write-down

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we reported inventory write-downs of $12.0 million primarily related to cannabis strains and potency levels that were no longer in-line with consumer preferences in the Canadian market and adjustments for obsolete inventory in Canada. We reported no such write-down for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Gross profit

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we reported gross profit of $1.2 million, representing an increase in gross profit of $1.9 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we reported gross profit of $12.2 million, representing an increase in gross profit of $31.7 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three-month comparative period, the change was primarily due to increased revenue in the ROW segment driven mainly by sales of cannabis flower in Israel and a favorable mix of cannabis extract products, which carry a higher gross profit and gross margin than other product categories, and lower cannabis biomass costs, partially offset by lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind-down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner Facility and lower revenue in the U.S. segment. For the nine-month comparative period, the change was primarily due to increased revenue in the ROW segment driven mainly by sales of cannabis flower in Israel and a favorable mix of cannabis extract products, which carry a higher gross profit and gross margin than other product categories, the absence of inventory write-downs in the current period, and lower cannabis biomass costs, partially offset by lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind-down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner Facility and lower revenue in the U.S. segment.

Sales and marketing

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, sales and marketing expenses were $5.9 million, representing a decrease of $4.9 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, sales and marketing expenses were $16.5 million, representing a decrease of $17.8 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the decrease was primarily due to lower advertising and marketing spend and lower payroll-related costs in the U.S. segment as a result of the Realignment.

37

Research and development

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, research and development expenses were $2.6 million, representing a decrease of $3.9 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, research and development expenses were $10.9 million, representing a decrease of $5.9 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the decrease was primarily due to lower costs associated with the timing of Ginkgo milestones and a cancellation of beauty-focused product development spending in the U.S. segment.

General and administrative

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses were $17.2 million, representing a decrease of $15.4 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses were $56.5 million, representing a decrease of $20.3 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the decrease was primarily due to credit loss revaluation allowances recognized in the prior comparative period and reduced advisory fees associated with strategic initiatives.

Restructuring costs

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, restructuring costs were $0.5 million and $4.9 million, respectively, compared to no restructuring costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. Restructuring costs for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were related to the Realignment, including the planned exit of the Stayner Facility.

Share-based compensation

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, share-based compensation expense was $4.3 million, representing an increase of $1.6 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, share-based compensation expense was $10.6 million, representing an increase of $2.8 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three-month comparative periods, the increase was primarily due to previously held-back equity awards granted to certain executives in the three months ended September 30, 2022. For the nine-month comparative periods, the increase was primarily due to the acceleration of expense on equity awards granted to certain executive employees in connection with their separation from the Company, as well as previously held-back equity awards granted to certain executives in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Depreciation and amortization

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, depreciation and amortization expenses were $1.7 million, representing an increase of $0.5 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, depreciation and amortization expenses were $4.4 million, representing an increase of $1.4 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the increase was primarily due to higher amortization on Ginkgo-related intangible assets.

Impairment loss on goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets

For both the three and nine month ended September 30, 2022, there was no impairment loss on goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. For both the three and nine month ended September 30, 2021, impairment loss on goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets was $0.1 million and $235.1 million, respectively. The impairment loss on goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was due to impairment charges on the goodwill associated with our U.S. reporting unit and Lord Jones® brand.

Impairment loss on long-lived assets

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, there was no impairment loss on long-lived assets compared to $1.8 million impairment loss from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, impairment loss on long-lived assets was $3.5 million, representing a decrease of $1.2 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For further information, see Note 13 “Impairment Loss on Long-lived Assets” to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Interest income, net

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, interest income, net was $7.2 million, representing an increase of $5.1 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, interest income, net was $13.0 million, representing an increase of $6.3 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the increase in net interest income was primarily due to higher short-term investment balances and higher interest rates during the current period.

Gain on revaluation of derivative liabilities

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the gain on revaluation of derivative liabilities was $0.4 million, representing a decrease of $132.5 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the gain on revaluation of derivative liabilities was $14.2 million, representing a decrease of $117.1 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. We expect continued changes in derivative valuations as our share price fluctuates period to period and the remaining expected terms of our derivative instruments decrease. For further information, see Note 6 “Derivative Liabilities” to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Share of income (loss) from equity method investments

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, our share of loss from equity method investments was $1.1 million, representing a decrease of $0.3 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our share of income from equity method investments was $4.1 million, representing an increase of $8.3 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the change was due to improved results from our equity method investment in Cronos GrowCo.

Gain on revaluation of financial instruments

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the gain on revaluation of financial instruments was $17.0 million, representing an increased gain of $16.8 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the gain on revaluation of financial instruments was $19.2 million, representing an increased gain of $19.1 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the change was primarily related to the change in fair value of our investment in Cronos Australia. For further information, see Note 3 “Investments” to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Impairment loss on other investments

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, impairment loss on other investments was $29.0 million and $40.2 million, respectively, driven by impairments of the PharmaCann Option for the difference between its estimated fair value and its carrying amount. There were no impairment losses on other investments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. For more information, see Note 3 “Investments” in our condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Foreign currency transaction gain (loss)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, foreign currency transaction gain (loss) was $2.4 million and $(2.3) million, respectively, which related to certain foreign currency-denominated intercompany loans anticipated to be settled in the foreseeable future. There were no such foreign currency transaction gains or losses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Other, net    

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, other, net was a loss of $0.7 million, compared to breakeven for the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, other, net was a loss of $0.6 million, compared to income of $1.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the change was due to loss on disposal of assets associated with the Realignment, partially offset by dividend income from our Cronos Australia investment during the current periods.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the ROW segment reported net revenue of $20.4 million, representing an increase of $2.1 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the ROW segment reported net revenue of $64.7 million, representing an increase of $22.8 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the change was primarily due to higher cannabis flower sales in the Israeli medical market and higher cannabis extract sales in the Canadian adult-use market, partially offset by lower cannabis flower sales in the Canadian adult-use market driven by an adverse price/mix shift and the impact of the weakening Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar during the period.

Cost of sales – ROW

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the ROW segment reported cost of sales of $17.3 million, representing a decrease of $0.5 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the ROW segment reported cost of sales of $50.5 million, representing an increase of $0.6 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For

40

the three-month comparative period, the decrease was primarily due to lower cannabis biomass costs and the impact of the weakening Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar during the current period, partially offset by higher sales volumes and lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner Facility. For the nine-month comparative period, the increase was primarily due to higher sales volumes and lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner Facility, partially offset by lower cannabis biomass costs and the impact of the weakening Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar during the current period.

Inventory write-down – ROW

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the ROW segment reported consolidated inventory write-down of $12.0 million primarily related to cannabis strains and potency levels that were no longer in-line with consumer preferences in the Canadian market and adjustments for obsolete inventory in Canada. The ROW segment reported no such write-down for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Gross profit – ROW

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the ROW segment reported gross profit of $3.1 million, representing an increase in gross profit of $2.6 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the ROW segment reported gross profit of $14.2 million, representing an increase in gross profit of $34.2 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three-month comparative period, the change was primarily due to increased revenue driven mainly by sales of cannabis flower in Israel and a higher cannabis extract sales in Canada, which carry a higher gross profit and gross margin than other product categories, and lower cannabis biomass costs, partially offset by lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind-down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner Facility. For the nine-month comparative period, the change was primarily due to the absence of inventory write-downs in the current periods, increased revenue driven mainly by sales of cannabis flower and a favorable mix of cannabis extract products, which carry a higher gross profit and gross margin than other product categories, and lower cannabis biomass costs, partially offset by lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind-down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner Facility.

Net revenue – U.S.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the U.S. segment reported net revenue of $0.5 million, representing a decrease of $1.6 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the U.S. segment reported net revenue of $4.3 million, representing a decrease of $2.5 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in sales as a result of a decrease in promotional spending and SKU rationalization efforts as the Company implements the Realignment in the U.S. segment.

Cost of sales – U.S.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the U.S. segment reported cost of sales of $2.5 million, representing a decrease of $0.9 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the U.S. segment reported cost of sales of $6.3 million, essentially unchanged from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three-month comparative period, the decrease was primarily due to lower sales volumes. For the nine-month comparative period, the reduction in cost of sales was driven by lower sales volumes, partially offset by a higher level of inventory reserves.

Gross profit – U.S.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the U.S. segment reported gross profit of $(2.0) million, representing a decrease of $0.7 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the U.S. segment reported gross profit of $(2.0) million, representing a decrease of $2.5 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For both the three- and nine-month comparative periods, the change was primarily due to lower sales volumes and higher inventory reserves.

Non-GAAP Measures

Cronos Group reports its financial results in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). This Quarterly Report refers to measures not recognized under U.S. GAAP (“non-GAAP measures”). These non-GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these non-GAAP measures are provided as a supplement to corresponding U.S. GAAP measures to provide additional information regarding the results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All non-GAAP measures presented in this Quarterly Report are reconciled to their closest reported U.S. GAAP measure. Reconciliations of historical adjusted financial measures to corresponding U.S. GAAP measures are provided below.

Adjusted EBITDA

Management reviews Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, which excludes non-cash items and items that do not reflect management’s assessment of ongoing business performance of our operating segments. Management defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization adjusted for: share of income (loss) from equity method investments; impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets; impairment loss on long-lived assets; (gain) loss on revaluation of derivative liabilities; (gain) loss on revaluation of financial instruments; transaction costs related to strategic projects; impairment loss on other investments; foreign currency transaction loss; other, net; loss from discontinued operations; restructuring costs; share-based compensation; and financial statement review costs and reserves related to the restatements of our 2019 and 2021 interim financial statements (the “Restatements”), including the costs related to the settlement of the SEC’s and the OSC’s investigations of the Restatements and legal costs defending shareholder class action complaints brought against us as a result of the 2019 restatement (see Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” of this Quarterly Report for a discussion of the shareholder class action complaints relating to the restatement of the 2019 interim financial statements and the settlement of the SEC’s and the OSC’s investigations of the Restatements.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides the most useful insight into underlying business trends and results and provides a more meaningful comparison of period-over-period results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance, including allocating resources and evaluating results relative to employee compensation targets.

Constant Currency

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we have presented constant currency adjusted financial measures for net revenues, gross profit, gross profit margin, operating expenses, net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as well as cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment balances as of September 30, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures. We present constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying operations performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current and comparative prior period income statement results in currencies other than U.S. dollars are converted into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates from the three- and nine-month comparative periods in 2021 rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the respective current periods; constant currency current and prior comparative balance sheet information is translated at the prior year-end spot rate rather than the current period spot rate. All growth comparisons relate to the corresponding period in 2021. We have provided this non-GAAP financial information to aid investors in better understanding the performance of our segments. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Quarterly Report should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The table below sets forth certain measures of consolidated results from continuing operations on a constant currency basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 as well as cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, both on an as-reported and constant currency basis (in thousands):

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, net revenue on a constant currency basis was $21.8 million, representing a 7% increase from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net revenue on a constant currency basis was $70.4 million, representing a 45% increase from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Net revenue increased for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 on a constant currency basis and was primarily due to higher cannabis flower sales in the Israeli medical market and higher cannabis extract sales in the Canadian adult-use market, partially offset by a reduction in revenue in the U.S. segment and lower cannabis flower sales in the Canadian adult-use market driven by an adverse price/mix shift.

46

Gross profit

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, gross profit on a constant currency basis was $1.3 million, representing a 284% increase from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, gross profit on a constant currency basis was $12.5 million, representing a 164% increase from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three-month comparative period, the change was primarily due to increased revenue in the ROW segment driven mainly by sales of cannabis flower in Israel and a favorable mix of cannabis extract products, which carry a higher gross profit and gross margin than other product categories, and lower cannabis biomass costs, partially offset by lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind-down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner Facility and lower revenue in the U.S. segment. For the nine-month comparative period, the change was primarily due to increased revenue in the ROW segment driven mainly by sales of cannabis flower in Israel and a favorable mix of cannabis extract products, which carry a higher gross profit and gross margin than other product categories, the absence of inventory write-downs in the current period, and lower cannabis biomass costs, partially offset by lower fixed cost absorption due to the timing of wind-down activities associated with our planned exit of the Stayner Facility and lower revenue in the U.S. segment.

Operating expenses

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, operating expenses on a constant currency basis was $32.7 million, representing a 41% decrease from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, operating expenses on a constant currency basis was $108.7 million, representing a 71% decrease from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. On a constant currency basis, operating expenses decreased for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to lower advertising and marketing spend and lower payroll-related costs in the U.S. segment as a result of the Realignment, reduced costs associated with the timing of Ginkgo milestones and a cancellation of beauty-focused product development spending in the U.S. segment as well as an expected credit loss allowance revaluation recognized in the three- and nine-month comparative periods, partially offset by higher restructuring costs related to the Realignment, including the planned exit of the Stayner Facility.

Net income (loss)

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, net loss on a constant currency basis was $36.5 million, representing a 147% reduction in net income from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net loss on a constant currency basis was $89.9 million, representing a 66% improvement from the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis was $(22.0) million, representing a 53% improvement from the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis was $(59.9) million, representing a 55% improvement from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 on a constant currency basis was primarily driven by decreases in general and administrative expenses, sales and marketing expenses, and research and development expenses as a result of the Company's strategic Realignment and an improvement in gross profit.

Cash and cash equivalents & short-term investments

Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments on a constant currency basis decreased 7% to $937.2 million as of September 30, 2022 from $1.0 billion as of December 31, 2021. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments is primarily due to cash flows used in operating activities in 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2022, we had $633.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $255.5 million in short-term investments, which comprise the majority of the Company’s cash position. We believe that the existing cash and cash equivalents and the short-term investments will be sufficient to fund the business operations and capital expenditures over the next twelve months. The following table summarizes the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities:

(In thousands of U.S. dollars)	Nine months ended September 30,
	2022		2021
Cash flows used in operating activities	$	(64,576)	$	(117,678)

Comparison of cash flows between the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the nine months ended September 30, 2021

Operating activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we used $64.6 million of cash in operating activities as compared to cash used of $117.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, representing a decrease in cash used of $53.1 million. This change is primarily driven by a $63.1 million increase in net income after adjusting for non-cash items during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Investing activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we used $160.3 million of cash in investing activities, compared to $110.2 million of cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, representing an increase of $50.1 million in cash used by investing activities. This change is primarily driven by higher levels of short-term investments, partially offset by the purchase of the PharmaCann option during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, lower purchases of property, plant and equipment and an increase in repayments and decrease in disbursements related to loans receivable with related parties.

Financing activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash used in financing activities was $2.3 million, compared to $13.2 million of cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, representing a decrease of $10.9 million in cash used in financing activities. This change is primarily driven by a decrease of $11.0 million in withholding taxes paid on share-based awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Cash Requirements

The Company’s cash requirements have not changed significantly since the filing of the Annual Report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report. Our critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed significantly since the filing of the Annual Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company is exposed to certain market risks, including changes from foreign currency exchange rates related to our international operations. Except as updated below, the Company’s market risks have not changed significantly from that disclosed in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report.

Foreign currency risk

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk based on its net assets, liabilities, and revenues denominated in foreign currencies, including Canadian dollars and Israeli new shekels. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency translation gains and losses. Revenue and expenses of all foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the foreign currency exchange rates that approximate the rates in effect during the period when such items are recognized. Appreciating foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar will positively impact operating income and net earnings, while depreciating foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar will have an adverse impact.

A 10% change in the exchange rates for the Canadian dollar would have affected the carrying amount of the net assets by approximately $79.9 million and $87.8 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The corresponding impact would be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. We have not historically engaged in hedging transactions and do not currently contemplate engaging in hedging transactions to mitigate foreign exchange risks. As we continue to recognize gains and losses in foreign currency transactions, depending upon changes in future currency rates, such gains and losses could have a significant, and potentially adverse, effect on the Company’s results of operations.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had foreign currency loss on translation of $60.6 million and $22.8 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had foreign currency gain (loss) on translation of $(68.8) million and $6.9 million, respectively.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as of September 30, 2022. Based on that evaluation, management has concluded that, as of September 30, 2022, due to the existence of material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described below, the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Material Weakness in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies in internal controls over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”), we have identified the following material weaknesses:

•Control Environment:

We did not maintain an effective control environment. Specifically, our control environment (i) did not ensure that senior personnel in our accounting function engaged consistently in appropriate professional conduct and conduct consistent with our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; and (ii) lacked personnel in our accounting function with appropriate level of knowledge and experience in U.S. GAAP sufficient to properly assess evidence and interpret accounting rules.

None of the personnel in the accounting function that engaged in misconduct were current or former executive officers of the Company. The control environment material weakness contributed to the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset material weakness described below.

•Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Impairment Testing:

We identified the following material weakness with respect to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment testing. We did not design and maintain effective controls to assess goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for potential impairment as changes in the performance of and prospects for our U.S. reporting unit occurred. Specifically, we did not design and maintain effective controls to sufficiently assess the overall financial performance of and expectations for our U.S. reporting unit and certain macroeconomic, industry and market conditions when evaluating goodwill associated with our U.S. reporting unit and our Lord Jones® brand indefinite-lived intangible asset for potential impairment.

The material weakness in the control environment contributed to material misstatements related to the impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets that led to the restatement of the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The material weaknesses create a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The lack of personnel in our accounting function with appropriate level of knowledge and experience in U.S. GAAP sufficient to properly assess evidence and interpret accounting principles described above resulted in immaterial misstatements related to the accounting for derivatives, share-based compensation, earnings per share, and long-lived asset impairment.

49

Remediation Plan and Status

As of the filing date, the Company has implemented or is in the process of implementing various initiatives intended to address the identified material weaknesses and strengthen our overall control environment. In this regard, some of our key remedial initiatives include:

Material Weakness	Control, Control Enhancement or Mitigant	Implementation Status	Management Testing Status	Remediation Status
Control Environment	•The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reinforced and will continue to reinforce on an ongoing basis the importance of adherence to the Company’s policies, procedures and standards of conduct, including identifying misconduct and raising and communicating concerns;	Completed	In Progress	Not Remediated
	•All accounting personnel that engaged in unprofessional conduct have been terminated or resigned from the Company and are in the process of being replaced with qualified personnel;	Completed	In Progress	Not Remediated
	•We have enhanced our existing sub-certification process to include additional certifications regarding certain complex accounting topics and to include additional employees to increase accountability amongst Company personnel;	Completed	In Progress	Not Remediated
	•We have expanded our compensation claw back provisions to incorporate all personnel who are subject to our enhanced sub-certification process;	Completed	In Progress	Not Remediated
	•We have identified and are in the process of implementing organizational enhancements including (i) evaluating the sufficiency, experience and training of personnel within our accounting function and (ii) hiring accounting personnel with appropriate knowledge and experience in U.S. GAAP;	In Progress	In Progress	Not Remediated
	•We are in the process of developing and implementing a training program for accounting and finance personnel to enhance their knowledge of U.S. GAAP outlined in our accounting policies, which are used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements; and	In Progress	In Progress	Not Remediated
Asset Impairment Testing	•We have evaluated and will continue to regularly evaluate our policies and procedures relating to certain complex accounting topics and have begun implementing improvements in those policies and procedures.	Completed	In Progress	Not Remediated

The Company will continue to review, optimize, and enhance its financial reporting controls and procedures. As the Company continues to evaluate and work to improve its internal control over financial reporting, the Company may implement additional measures to address the material weaknesses or certain of the remediation measures described above may be enhanced or modified. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable remediated controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through further testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

(b)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than those material weaknesses identified and measures described above to remediate the material weaknesses identified in the prior year, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act), that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1: Legal Proceedings.

The information set forth under Note 11(b), Contingencies, to the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements included in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A: Risk Factors.

An investment in us involves a number of risks. A detailed discussion of our risk factors appears in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Annual Report. Any of the matters highlighted in the risk factors described in the Annual Report and the risk factors below could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, causing an investor to lose all, or part of, its, his or her investment. The risks and uncertainties described in the Annual Report and below are those we currently believe to be material, but they are not the only ones we face. If any of the risks described in the Annual Report, the following risk factors, or any other risks and uncertainties that we have not yet identified or that we currently consider not to be material, actually occur or become material risks, our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and consequently the price of our securities could be materially and adversely affected.

We are subject to disabilities as a result of the SEC Order that may expose us to increased future litigation and adversely affect our ability to raise capital.

As of the date of the SEC Order, October 24, 2022, and for a period of three years thereafter, we are unable to rely on the safe harbor provisions regarding forward-looking statements provided by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Our inability to rely on these safe harbor provisions may expose us to increased future litigation in connection with forward-looking statements in our public disclosures.

Further, as of the date of the SEC Order, we have lost our status as a “well-known seasoned issuer” for a period of three years, which places limitations on the manner in which we can market our securities to the public, and we are unable to rely on the private offering exemptions provided by Regulations A and D under the Securities Act for a period of five years, which could impair our ability to raise additional capital in the private market quickly in response to changing requirements and market conditions.

Our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected by disruptions in the global economy caused by the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

The global economy has been negatively impacted by the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Furthermore, governments in the U.S., Canada, United Kingdom, and European Union have each imposed export controls on certain products and financial and economic sanctions on certain industry sectors and parties in Russia. Although we do not have any customers or direct supplier relationships in Russia or Ukraine, businesses in the United States and globally have experienced shortages in materials and increased costs for transportation, energy, and raw material due in part to the negative impact of the Russia-Ukraine military conflict on the global economy. Further escalation of geopolitical tensions related to the military conflict, including increased trade barriers or restrictions on global trade, could result in, among other things, cyberattacks, supply disruptions, lower consumer demand, and changes to foreign exchange rates and financial markets, any of which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We are continuing to monitor the situation in Ukraine and globally and assessing its potential impact on our business. Although our business has not been, to the date of this Quarterly Report, materially impacted by the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine, it is impossible to predict the extent to which our operations, or those of our suppliers and vendors, will be impacted in the short and long term, or the ways in which the conflict may impact our business. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict, but may be substantial. In addition, the effects of the ongoing conflict could heighten any of our known risks described in our Annual Report.

There can be no assurance of continued growth in Israel and our performance in Israel depends on, among other things, our ability to continue to import cannabis into Israel and our joint venture partners.

While our revenue in Israel has experienced a recent period of significant growth, our prior performance is not indicative of any potential future results in Israel. There can be no assurance that our recent growth in the Israeli market can be sustained or will continue. Our ability to manage and sustain revenue growth in Israel will depend on a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including, but not limited to, our ability to continue to import cannabis into Israel, changes in laws and regulations respecting the cultivation, production and marketing of dried flower, pre-rolls and oils in Israel, increased competition, our ability to produce sufficient volumes of our products to meet customer demand and our ability to maintain or grow our market share in Israel. Any of these factors could materially and negatively impact our growth in Israel.

51

In connection with the Realignment, we have begun to further leverage our strategic joint venture with Cronos GrowCo. Our current efforts to wind-down and ultimately exit the Stayner Facility have increased the importance of Cronos GrowCo to our business and operations. Once the Stayner Facility is closed, Cronos GrowCo’s production facilities will be our principal source of raw materials. Therefore, our performance in Israel is reliant on our ability to acquire such raw materials on a timely and cost-effective basis from Cronos GrowCo and to continue to import such raw materials and cannabis products to Israel from Cronos GrowCo. There is no guarantee that we will be able to successfully execute our strategy to expand production at Cronos GrowCo or that we will be able to obtain the regulatory approvals, licenses and permits required for both the export of cannabis from Canada and the import of cannabis into Israel. See “–We may not successfully execute our production capacity strategy” included under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of the Annual Report.

Additionally, our performance in Israel depends on the results of Cronos Israel, which holds the certificates and corresponding permits required for the cultivation, production and marketing of cannabis in Israel and is responsible for distributing PEACE NATURALS® branded cannabis products to the Israeli medical cannabis market. Cronos Israel is a strategic joint venture operating in a foreign country and is therefore subject to the all the risks normally associated with an investment in a joint venture and the conduct of business in a foreign country, any of which could materially and negatively impact the performance of Cronos Israel. See “– Our use of joint ventures may expose us to risks associated with jointly owned investments” and “– Investments and joint ventures outside of Canada and the U.S. are subject to the risks normally associated with any conduct of business in foreign countries, including varying degrees of political, legal, regulatory and economic risk” included under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of the Annual Report for a discussion of the risks relating to joint ventures and foreign investments.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

None.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

None.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Other Information.

Griese Letter Agreement

On November 7, 2022, the Company, Cronos USA Client Services LLC (“Cronos USA”) and Hortican Inc.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Background, Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

Background, Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

(a)Background

Cronos Group Inc. (“Cronos Group” or the “Company”) is incorporated in the province of British Columbia and under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) with principal executive offices at 111 Peter St., Suite 300, Toronto, Ontario, M5V 2H1. The Company’s common shares are currently listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “CRON.”

Cronos Group is an innovative global cannabinoid company committed to building disruptive intellectual property by advancing cannabis research, technology and product development and is seeking to build an iconic brand portfolio. Cronos Group’s diverse international brand portfolio includes Spinach®, PEACE NATURALS®, Lord Jones®, Happy Dance® and PEACE+®.

(b)Basis of presentation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Cronos Group are unaudited. They have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission relating to interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other reporting period.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”).

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations and ending shareholders’ equity.

(c)Segment information

Segment reporting is prepared on the same basis that the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) manages the business, makes operating decisions and assesses the Company’s performance. The Company determined that it has the following two reportable segments: U.S. (the “U.S. segment”) and ROW (the “ROW segment”). The U.S. operating segment consists of the manufacture and distribution of U.S. hemp-derived cannabinoid infused products. The ROW operating segment is involved in the cultivation, manufacture, and marketing of cannabis and cannabis-derived products for the medical and adult-use markets. These two segments represent the geographic regions in which the Company operates and the different product offerings within each geographic region. The results of each segment are regularly reviewed by the CODM to assess the performance of the segment and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources using Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) as the measure of segment profit or loss. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, non-cash items and items that do not reflect management’s assessment of ongoing business performance.

(d)Concentration of risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities, primarily accounts receivable and other receivables, and its investing activities, including cash held with banks and financial institutions, short-term investments, loans receivable, and advances to joint ventures. The Company’s maximum exposure to this risk is equal to the carrying amount of these financial assets, which amounted to $992,385 and $1,118,684 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on the days past due for groupings of various customer segments with similar loss patterns. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, amongst others, the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan and a failure to make contractual payments for a period of greater than 120 days past due. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $2 and $8, respectively, in expected credit losses that have been recognized on receivables from contracts with customers in the ROW segment. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $457 and $104, respectively, in expected credit losses that have been recognized on receivables from contracts with customers in the U.S. segment.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company assessed that there is a concentration of credit risk, as 68% of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from three customers with an established credit history with the Company. As of December 31, 2021, 88% of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from four customers with an established credit history with the Company.

The Company sells products to a limited number of major customers. Major customers are defined as customers that each individually accounted for greater than 10% of the Company’s revenue. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $12,094 from three major customers in the ROW segment, together accounting for 56% of the Company’s total net revenues before excise taxes. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the ROW segment earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $12,256 from three major customers, together accounting for 60% of the Company’s total net revenues before excise taxes.

(e)Adoption of new accounting pronouncements

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06, Debt –Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815–40) (“ASU No. 2020-06”). ASU No. 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. ASU No. 2020-06 is part of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in U.S. GAAP. The adoption of ASU No. 2020-06 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

(f)New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU No. 2022-02”). ASU No. 2022-02 eliminates the existing troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance, and instead aligns the accounting treatment to that of other loan modifications. The amendments enhance existing disclosure requirements and introduce new requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. ASU No. 2022-02 also requires that entities disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases. ASU No. 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and is to be adopted prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2022-02 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU No. 2022-03”). ASU No. 2022-03 clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also require additional disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and is to be adopted prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2022-03 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

(b)Other investments

Other investments consist of investments in common shares and options of two companies in the cannabis industry.

PharmaCann, Inc.

In 2021, the Company purchased an option (the “PharmaCann Option”) to acquire 473,787 shares of Class A Common Stock of PharmaCann Inc. (“PharmaCann”), a vertically integrated cannabis company in the United States, which represented an ownership interest of approximately 10.5% as of December 31, 2021. The PharmaCann Option is classified as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value. The Company has elected to measure the fair value of the PharmaCann Option at cost less impairment, if any, and subsequently adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. On February 28, 2022, PharmaCann closed the previously announced transaction with LivWell Holdings, Inc. (“LivWell”) pursuant to which PharmaCann acquired LivWell (the “LivWell Transaction”). LivWell is a multi-state cannabis cultivation and retail leader based in Colorado. As a result of the LivWell Transaction, the Company’s ownership percentage in PharmaCann on a fully-diluted basis decreased to approximately 6.4%. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s ownership percentage in PharmaCann on a fully-diluted basis was approximately 6.3%. The decrease in the Company’s ownership percentage since acquisition does not materially affect the Company’s rights under the PharmaCann Option.

Cronos Australia Limited

The Company owns approximately 10% of the outstanding common shares of Cronos Australia Limited (“Cronos Australia”). The investment is considered an equity security with a readily determinable fair value. Changes in the fair value of the investment are recorded as gain (loss) on revaluation of financial instruments on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). During the three months ended September 30, 2022, Cronos Australia declared a dividend of AUD $0.01 per ordinary share. Based on the Company’s holding of 55,176,065 ordinary shares in the capital of Cronos Australia, the Company recorded dividend income of $390 within other, net on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

The following table summarizes the Company’s other investments activity:

	As of July 1, 2022		Unrealized gain		Impairment charges		Foreign exchange effect		As of September 30, 2022
PharmaCann	$	99,154	$	—	$	(28,972)	$	—	$	70,182
Cronos Australia	9,515		17,118		—		(2,258)		24,375
	$	108,669	$	17,118	$	(28,972)	$	(2,258)	$	94,557

	As of January 1, 2022		Unrealized gain		Impairment charges		Foreign exchange effect		As of September 30, 2022
PharmaCann	$	110,392	$	—	$	(40,210)	$	—	$	70,182
Cronos Australia	8,000		19,114		—		(2,739)		24,375
	$	118,392	$	19,114	$	(40,210)	$	(2,739)	$	94,557

During both the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company identified adverse forecast changes in the financial performance of PharmaCann as indicators of impairment related to the PharmaCann Option and conducted analyses comparing the PharmaCann Option’s carrying amount to its estimated fair value. The fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was estimated using a combination of the market and income approaches, and the fair value for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was estimated using the income approach. Under the income approach, significant inputs used in the discounted cash flow method include discount rate, growth rates, and cash flow projections. As a result of these analyses, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $11,238 and $28,972 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively, as the difference between the carrying amount of the PharmaCann Option and its estimated fair value in the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company had no gain or loss on revaluation of other investments. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not hold any additional other investments.

As summarized in this note, if exercised in full on such date, the exercise of the Altria Warrant would have resulted in Altria holding a total ownership interest in the Company of approximately 52% (calculated on a non-diluted basis). Pursuant to the investor rights agreement between the Company and Altria (the “Investor Rights Agreement”), entered into in connection with the closing of Altria’s investment in the Company (the “Altria Investment”) pursuant to a subscription agreement dated December 7, 2018, the Company granted Altria certain rights, among others, summarized in this note.

b.The Company granted to Altria, subject to certain qualifications and limitations, upon the occurrence of certain issuances of common shares of the Company executed by the Company (including issuances pursuant to the research and development (“R&D”) partnership (the “Ginkgo Strategic Partnership”) with Ginkgo), the right to purchase up to such number of common shares of the Company in order to maintain their ownership percentage of issued and outstanding common shares of the Company immediately preceding any issuance of shares by the Company (“Pre-emptive Rights”), at the same price per common share of the Company at which the common shares are sold in the relevant issuance; provided that if the consideration paid in connection with any such issuance is non-cash, the price per common share of the Company that would have been received had such common shares been issued for cash consideration will be determined by an independent committee (acting reasonably and in good faith); provided further that the price per common share of the Company to be paid by Altria pursuant to its exercise of its Pre-emptive Rights related to the Ginkgo Strategic Partnership will be C$16.25 per common share. These rights may not be exercised if Altria’s ownership percentage of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company falls below 20%.

c.In addition to (and without duplication of) the Pre-emptive Rights, the Company granted to Altria, subject to certain qualifications and limitations, the right to subscribe for common shares of the Company issuable in connection with the exercise, conversion or exchange of convertible securities of the Company issued prior to March 8, 2019 or thereafter (excluding any convertible securities of the Company owned by Altria or any of its subsidiaries), a share incentive plan of the Company, the exercise of any right granted by the Company pro rata to all shareholders of the Company to purchase additional common shares and/or securities of the Company, bona fide bank debt, equipment financing or non-equity interim financing transactions that contemplate an equity component or bona fide acquisitions (including acquisitions of assets or rights under a license or otherwise), mergers or similar business combination transactions or joint ventures involving the Company in order to maintain their ownership percentage of issued and outstanding common shares of the Company immediately preceding any such transactions (“Top-up Rights”).

Fluctuations in the expected life of the derivative instruments and the Company’s share price are primary drivers for the changes in the derivative valuations during each reporting period. As the expected period of time the derivative liability is expected to be outstanding decreases and the share price decreases, the fair value typically decreases for each related derivative instrument. Weighted-average expected life and share price are two of the significant observable inputs used in the fair value measurement of each of the Company’s derivative instruments.

The fair values of the derivative liabilities were determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model using the following inputs:

	As of September 30, 2022
	Altria Warrant	Pre-emptive Rights	Top-up Rights
Share price at valuation date (per share in C$)	$3.87	$3.87	$3.87

Weighted-average expected life (in years)(ii)	1.18	0.50	0.80
Expected annualized volatility(iii)	80%	80%	80%
Expected dividend yield	—%	—%	—%

(i)The risk-free interest rate was based on Bank of Canada government treasury bills and bonds with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the derivative liabilities. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the risk-free interest rate uses a range of approximately 3.52% to 3.80% and 0.16% to 1.10%, respectively, for the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights.

(ii)The expected life represents the period of time, in years, that the derivative liabilities are expected to be outstanding. The expected life of the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights is determined based on the expected term of the underlying options, warrants, and shares, to which the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights are linked. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the expected life uses a range of approximately 0.25 years to 3.00 years and 0.25 years to 3.75 years, respectively, for the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights.

(iii)Volatility was based on an equally weighted blended historical and implied volatility level of the underlying equity securities of the Company.

The following table quantifies each of the significant inputs described above and provides a sensitivity analysis of the impact on the reported values of the derivative liabilities. The sensitivity analysis for each significant input is performed by assuming a 10% decrease in the input while other significant inputs remain constant at management’s best estimate as of the respective dates. While a decrease in the inputs noted below would cause a decrease in the carrying amount of the derivative liability, there would also be an equal and opposite impact on net income (loss).

	10% decrease as of September 30, 2022
	Altria Warrant		Pre-emptive Rights		Top-up Rights
Share price	$	20	$	—	$	12
Weighted-average expected life	18		—		15
Expected annualized volatility	27		—		15

	10% decrease as of December 31, 2021
	Altria Warrant		Pre-emptive Rights		Top-up Rights

Weighted-average expected life	2,971		171		133
Expected annualized volatility	5,402		96		155

These inputs are classified as Level 3 on the fair value hierarchy and are subject to volatility and several factors outside the Company’s control, which could significantly affect the fair value of these derivative liabilities in future periods.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

Restructuring

Restructuring

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company initiated a strategic plan to realign the business around its brands, centralize functions and evaluate the Company’s supply chain (the “Realignment”). As part of the Realignment, on February 28, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved plans to leverage the Company’s strategic partnerships to improve supply chain efficiencies and reduce manufacturing overhead by exiting its production facility in Stayner, Ontario, Canada (the “Stayner Facility”). The Realignment initiatives being undertaken are intended to position the Company to drive profitable and sustainable growth over time.

The Company expects to incur approximately $6,100 in connection with the Realignment, including the planned exit of the Stayner Facility, of which $4,878 has been incurred as of September 30, 2022. Estimated charges related to the exit of the Stayner Facility include employee-related costs such as severance, relocation and other termination benefits, as well as contract termination and other related costs. The Company expects to incur approximately $1,200 in additional charges related to the Realignment, including the planned exit of the Stayner Facility.

The Company incurred the following restructuring costs by reportable segment:

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

Share-based Compensation

Share-based Compensation

(a)Share-based award plans

The Company has granted stock options, restricted share units (“RSUs”) and deferred share units (“DSUs”) to employees and non-employee directors under the Stock Option Plan dated May 26, 2015 (the “2015 Stock Option Plan”), the 2018 Stock Option Plan dated June 28, 2018 (the “2018 Stock Option Plan” and, together with the 2015 Stock Option Plan, the “Prior Option Plans”), the Employment Inducement Award Plan #1 (the “Employment Inducement Award Plan”), the 2020 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan dated March 29, 2020 (the “2020 Omnibus Plan”) and the DSU Plan dated August 10, 2019 (the “DSU Plan”). The Company can no longer make grants under the Prior Option Plans or the Employment Inducement Award Plan.

The following table summarizes the total share-based compensation expense associated with the Company’s stock options, RSUs and liability-classified awards for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Stock options	$	1,077	$	1,886	$	3,947	$	5,814

Liability-classified awards(i)	597		—		597		—
Total share-based compensation	$	4,265	$	2,667	$	10,567	$	7,731

(i)Represents share-based payment awards conditionally approved for grant in the three months ended September 30, 2022 to one of the Company’s former executives for a fixed monetary value, but a variable number of shares. These awards are liability-classified until the number of shares is determined.

(b)Stock options

Vesting conditions for grants of options are determined by the Compensation Committee. The typical vesting for stock option grants made under the 2020 Omnibus Plan is annual vesting over three to five years with a maximum term of ten years. The typical vesting for stock option grants made under the Prior Option Plans is quarterly vesting over three to five years with a maximum term of seven years. The Prior Option Plans did not, and the 2020 Omnibus Plan does not, authorize grants of options with an exercise price below fair market value.

The following is a summary of the changes in stock options for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

	Weighted-average exercise price (C$) (i)		Number of options	Weighted-average remaining contractual term (years)

The vesting of such RSUs is not subject to the achievement of any performance criteria.

(ii)Equity grants for 2020, 2021, and 2022 were held back for certain executives of the Company in connection with ongoing investigations by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Ontario Securities Commission (the “OSC”), which were subsequently settled on October 24, 2022. On August 5, 2022, the Compensation Committee approved the release of these held-back equity grants upon the settlement of the SEC and OSC investigations. These RSUs vest in equal installments over a period of three-years from what would have been their original grant dates had the grants not been withheld.

Loss Contingency [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

(a)Commitments

There have been no material changes in the information regarding commitments as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report.

(b)Contingencies

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business and in connection with its marketing, distribution and sale of its products. Many of these legal proceedings are in the early stages of litigation and seek damages that are unspecified or not quantified. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe these legal proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition but could be material to its results of operations for a quarterly period depending, in part, on its results for that quarter.

(i)Class action complaints relating to restatement of 2019 interim financial statements

On March 11 and 12, 2020, two alleged shareholders of the Company separately filed two putative class action complaints in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against the Company and its Chief Executive Officer and now former Chief Financial Officer. The court has consolidated the cases, and the consolidated amended complaint alleges violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder against all defendants, and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the individual defendants. The consolidated amended complaint generally alleges that certain of the Company’s prior public statements about revenues and internal control were incorrect based on the Company’s disclosures relating to the Audit Committee of the Board’s review of the appropriateness of revenue recognized in connection with certain bulk resin purchases and sales of products through the wholesale channel. The consolidated amended complaint does not quantify a damage request. Defendants moved to dismiss on February 8, 2021.

On June 3, 2020, an alleged shareholder filed a Statement of Claim, as amended on August 12, 2020, in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, seeking, among other things, an order certifying the action as a class action on behalf of a putative class of shareholders and damages of an unspecified amount. The Amended Statement of Claim names (i) the Company, (ii) its Chief Executive Officer, (iii) now former Chief Financial Officer, (iv) former Chief Financial Officer and Chief Commercial Officer, and (v) current and former members of the Board as defendants and alleges breaches of the Ontario Securities Act, oppression under the Ontario Business Corporations Act and common law misrepresentation. The Amended Statement of Claim generally alleges that certain of the Company’s prior public statements about revenues and internal control were misrepresentations based on the Company’s March 2, 2020 disclosure that the Audit Committee of the Board was conducting a review of the appropriateness of revenue recognized in connection with certain bulk resin purchases and sales of products through the wholesale channel, and the Company’s subsequent restatement. The Amended Statement of Claim does not quantify a damage request. On June 28, 2021, the Court dismissed motions brought by the plaintiff for leave to commence a claim for misrepresentation under the Ontario Securities Act and for certification of the action as a class action. The plaintiff appealed the Court’s dismissal of the motions only with respect to the Company, the Chief Executive Officer, and the now former Chief Financial Officer; the remaining defendants were dismissed from the matter with prejudice, and the Company and all individual defendants agreed not to seek costs from plaintiff in connection with the dismissal of the motions. On September 26, 2022, the Court of Appeal for Ontario reversed the Superior Court’s dismissal of the leave and certification motions, granted the plaintiff leave to proceed to bring a claim for misrepresentation under the Ontario Securities Act, and remitted the certification motion back to the Superior Court.

(ii)Regulatory reviews relating to restatements

The Company has been responding to requests for information from various regulatory authorities relating to its previously disclosed restatement of its financial statements for the first three quarters of 2019 as well as the previously disclosed restatement of the second quarter of 2021 interim financial statements (collectively, the “Restatements”). The Company has been responding to all such requests for information and cooperating with all regulatory authorities.

SEC Settlement

On October 24, 2022, the SEC issued an Order Instituting Cease-and-Desist Proceedings Pursuant to Section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21(c) of the Exchange Act, Making Findings, and Imposing a Cease-and-Desist Order (the “Settlement Order”) resolving the Restatements.

The Company has agreed to settle with the SEC, without admitting or denying the allegations described in the Settlement Order. The Settlement Order fully and finally disposes of the investigation of the Company by the SEC into the Restatements without the payment of any civil penalty or other amount.

The Settlement Order required the Company to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations and any future violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act, Sections 10(b), 13(a), 13(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange Act and Rules 10b-5, 13a-13, 13a-15(a), 13a-16 and 12b-20 thereunder. Additionally, the Company agreed to certain undertakings, which include, among other things, retaining a qualified independent consultant (the “Consultant”) to engage in a review of, and make recommendations with respect to, certain of the Company’s internal accounting controls and internal control over financing reporting.

As a result of the Settlement Order, the Company will (i) lose its status as a well-known seasoned issuer for a period of three years, (ii) be unable to rely on the private offering exemptions provided by Regulations A and D under the Securities Act for a period of five years and (iii) be unable to rely on the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for a period of three years.

OSC Settlement

On October 24, 2022, the Ontario Capital Markets Tribunal approved a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) between the Company and the staff of the OSC, resolving the Restatements.

Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, which fully and finally disposes the investigation of the Company by the OSC, Cronos agreed to pay a total of C$1.34 million to fully settle the matter, and acknowledged that it had failed to comply with the requirement under Section 77 of the Securities Act (Ontario) to file interim financial reports in the manner set out therein and had acted in a manner contrary to the public interest. Additionally, the Company agreed to retain the Consultant to engage in a review of, and make recommendations with respect to, certain of the Company’s internal accounting controls and internal control over financing reporting, on substantially the same terms as were required by the SEC pursuant the Settlement Order.

(iii)Litigation relating to marketing, distribution and sale of products

On June 16, 2020, an alleged consumer filed a Statement of Claim on behalf of a class in the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta in Alberta, Canada, against the Company and other Canadian cannabis manufacturers and/or distributors. On December 4, 2020, a Third Amended Statement of Claim was filed, which added a second alleged consumer. The Third Amended Statement of Claim alleges claims related to the defendants’ advertised content of cannabinoids in cannabis products for medicinal use on or after June 16, 2010 and cannabis products for adult use on or after October 17, 2018. The Third Amended Statement of Claim seeks a total of C$500 million for breach of contract, compensatory damages, and unjust enrichment or such other amount as may be proven in trial and C$5 million in punitive damages against each defendant, including the Company. The Third Amended Statement of Claim also seeks interest and costs associated with the action. The Company has not responded to the Third Amended Statement of Claim. On January 31, 2022, upon consent of the Company and the plaintiffs, the court dismissed the case in its entirety as to the Company.

A number of claims, including purported class actions, have been brought in the U.S. against companies engaged in the U.S. hemp business alleging, among other things, violations of state consumer protection, health and advertising laws. On April 8, 2020, a putative class action complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against Redwood Holding Group, LLC (“Redwood”), alleging violations of California’s Unfair Competition Law, False Advertising Law, Consumers Legal Remedies Act, and breaches of the California Commercial Code for breach of express warranties and implied warranty of merchantability with respect to Redwood’s marketing and sale of U.S. hemp products. The complaint did not quantify a damage request. On April 10, 2020, the class action complaint was dismissed for certain pleading deficiencies and the plaintiff was granted leave until April 24, 2020 to amend the complaint to establish federal subject matter jurisdiction. On April 28, 2020, the action was dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute and for failure to comply with a court order. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the plaintiff has not refiled the complaint.

The Company expects litigation and regulatory proceedings relating to the marketing, distribution and sale of its products to increase.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company complies with ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. In general, fair values are determined by:

•Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves.

•Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Impairment Loss on Long-lived Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

Impairment Loss on Long-lived Assets

Impairment Loss on Long-lived Assets

(a)Right-of-use assets and property, plant, and equipment, net

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $1,986 related to the right-of-use lease asset associated with the Company’s corporate headquarters, encompassing approximately 29,000 square feet, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, for which the Company determined it would seek a sublease. In addition, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $1,507 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 related to leasehold improvements and other office equipment that it plans to include in any potential sublease agreement. The determination to seek a sublease of the property and include leasehold improvements and other office equipment in any potential sublease agreement triggered the impairment charges. Both of the impairment charges are recognized as impairment loss on long-lived assets on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $1,039 related to leasehold improvements located within leased premises, encompassing approximately 6,000 square feet, in Los Angeles, California, which the Company determined it no longer had plans to use. The significant change in the extent and manner in which the leasehold improvements are being used and the expectation that, more likely than not, the leasehold improvements will be disposed of before the end of their useful life triggered an impairment. The right-of-use lease asset associated with the leasehold improvements was also written down as a result of the Company’s decision to no longer use the leased premises. The Company recognized an impairment charge on the de-recognition of the right-of-use asset of $702 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Both of the impairment charges are recognized as impairment loss on long-lived assets on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company reassessed the existence of impairment indicators on property, plant and equipment associated with sales channels in the U.S. segment. The Company determined that slower actual revenue growth as compared to previous growth forecasts and significant pricing pressures brought about by increased competition and aggressive discounting in sales channels in the U.S. segment represented indicators of impairment. As a result, a quantitative impairment analysis was required as of June 30, 2021. As such, the Company reassessed its estimates and forecasts as of June 30, 2021, to determine the fair values of the property, plant and equipment using an undiscounted cash flow methodology. Significant inputs include growth rates and cash flow projections. As a result of the analysis as of June 30, 2021, the Company concluded the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment associated with sales channels in the U.S. segment exceeded its fair value, which resulted in impairment charges of $1,214 on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

No impairment charges were recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 on property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets.

(b)Intangible assets, net

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $1,784 on definite-lived intangible assets for the difference between the consideration paid to Ginkgo for the achievement of certain milestones in connection with the Ginkgo Collaboration Agreement and the fair value of the Ginkgo exclusive license intellectual property. See Note 5 “Intangible Assets, net” for additional information. The impairment charge is recognized as impairment loss on long-lived assets on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

No impairment charges were recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 on definite-lived intangible assets.

Background, Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies (Policies)

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2022

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of presentation

Basis of presentation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Cronos Group are unaudited. They have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission relating to interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other reporting period.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”).

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations and ending shareholders’ equity.

Segment information

Segment informationSegment reporting is prepared on the same basis that the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) manages the business, makes operating decisions and assesses the Company’s performance. The Company determined that it has the following two reportable segments: U.S. (the “U.S. segment”) and ROW (the “ROW segment”). The U.S. operating segment consists of the manufacture and distribution of U.S. hemp-derived cannabinoid infused products. The ROW operating segment is involved in the cultivation, manufacture, and marketing of cannabis and cannabis-derived products for the medical and adult-use markets. These two segments represent the geographic regions in which the Company operates and the different product offerings within each geographic region. The results of each segment are regularly reviewed by the CODM to assess the performance of the segment and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources using Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) as the measure of segment profit or loss. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, non-cash items and items that do not reflect management’s assessment of ongoing business performance.

Concentration of risk

Concentration of risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities, primarily accounts receivable and other receivables, and its investing activities, including cash held with banks and financial institutions, short-term investments, loans receivable, and advances to joint ventures. The Company’s maximum exposure to this risk is equal to the carrying amount of these financial assets, which amounted to $992,385 and $1,118,684 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on the days past due for groupings of various customer segments with similar loss patterns. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, amongst others, the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan and a failure to make contractual payments for a period of greater than 120 days past due. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $2 and $8, respectively, in expected credit losses that have been recognized on receivables from contracts with customers in the ROW segment. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $457 and $104, respectively, in expected credit losses that have been recognized on receivables from contracts with customers in the U.S. segment.

Adoption of new accounting pronouncements and New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

Adoption of new accounting pronouncements

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06, Debt –Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815–40) (“ASU No. 2020-06”). ASU No. 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. ASU No. 2020-06 is part of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in U.S. GAAP. The adoption of ASU No. 2020-06 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

(f)New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU No. 2022-02”). ASU No. 2022-02 eliminates the existing troubled debt restructuring recognition and measurement guidance, and instead aligns the accounting treatment to that of other loan modifications. The amendments enhance existing disclosure requirements and introduce new requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. ASU No. 2022-02 also requires that entities disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases. ASU No. 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and is to be adopted prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2022-02 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU No. 2022-03”). ASU No. 2022-03 clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also require additional disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and is to be adopted prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2022-03 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Schedule of Fair Values of Derivative Liabilities

The fair values of the derivative liabilities were determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model using the following inputs:

	As of September 30, 2022
	Altria Warrant	Pre-emptive Rights	Top-up Rights
Share price at valuation date (per share in C$)	$3.87	$3.87	$3.87
Subscription price (per share in C$)	$19.00	$16.25	$16.25
Weighted-average risk-free interest rate(i)	3.67%	3.52%	3.64%
Weighted-average expected life (in years)(ii)	0.44	0.25	0.58
Expected annualized volatility(iii)	73%	73%	73%
Expected dividend yield	—%	—%	—%

	As of December 31, 2021
	Altria Warrant	Pre-emptive Rights	Top-up Rights
Share price at valuation date (per share in C$)	$4.98	$4.98	$4.98
Subscription price (per share in C$)	$19.00	$16.25	$16.25
Weighted-average risk-free interest rate(i)	0.79%	0.39%	0.50%
Weighted-average expected life (in years)(ii)	1.18	0.50	0.80
Expected annualized volatility(iii)	80%	80%	80%
Expected dividend yield	—%	—%	—%

(i)The risk-free interest rate was based on Bank of Canada government treasury bills and bonds with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the derivative liabilities. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the risk-free interest rate uses a range of approximately 3.52% to 3.80% and 0.16% to 1.10%, respectively, for the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights.

(ii)The expected life represents the period of time, in years, that the derivative liabilities are expected to be outstanding. The expected life of the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights is determined based on the expected term of the underlying options, warrants, and shares, to which the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights are linked. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the expected life uses a range of approximately 0.25 years to 3.00 years and 0.25 years to 3.75 years, respectively, for the Pre-emptive Rights and Top-up Rights.

(iii)Volatility was based on an equally weighted blended historical and implied volatility level of the underlying equity securities of the Company.

Schedule of Sensitivity Analysis

The following table quantifies each of the significant inputs described above and provides a sensitivity analysis of the impact on the reported values of the derivative liabilities. The sensitivity analysis for each significant input is performed by assuming a 10% decrease in the input while other significant inputs remain constant at management’s best estimate as of the respective dates. While a decrease in the inputs noted below would cause a decrease in the carrying amount of the derivative liability, there would also be an equal and opposite impact on net income (loss).
