(2) Three months ended May 31, 2019, includes an adjustment to remove volume associated with the Ballast Point craft beer business “Ballast Point Divestiture” for the period March 2, 2019, through May 31, 2019.
(3) Three months ended May 31, 2019, includes $28.6 million of net sales and $3.8 million of gross profit less marketing that are no longer part of the beer segment results after the Ballast Point Divestiture.
HIGHLIGHTS
•Constellation’s Beer Business posted depletion growth of 5.6% as strong performance in off-premise channels more than offset the impact of the 75% reduction in the on-premise channel due to COVID-19 related shut-downs. When adjusted for one less selling day in the quarter, the beer business generated nearly 7% depletion growth.
•The Corona Brand Family grew double-digits in IRI channels driven by the accelerated growth of Corona Extra, the successful launch of Corona Hard Seltzer, and the continued strength of Corona Premier and Corona Refresca.
•With the successful launch of Corona Hard Seltzer, the brand has quickly become the #4 hard seltzer player, approaching 6% IRI market share in the U.S. hard seltzer category. Ongoing distribution gains have led to IRI ACV distribution of nearly 65 since product launch in early March.
•Modelo Especial continues to see accelerating consumer takeaway trends in IRI channels and delivered 12% depletion growth during the quarter.
•Impacts from the COVID-19 related slowdown of beer production in Mexico impacted shipment volumes and distributor inventory levels and will extend into Q2. Product inventories are expected to return to more normal levels during the third quarter fiscal 2021; long-term outlook remains intact. •Operating margin increased 240 basis points to 41.7%, as benefits from timing of marketing spend and favorable pricing were partially offset by increased COGS. | |||||

(5) Three months ended May 31, 2019, includes $18.7 million of net sales and $8.3 million of gross profit less marketing that are no longer part of the wine and spirits segment results after the Black Velvet Divestiture.
HIGHLIGHTS
•The Power Brands are winning in the higher-end and across the majority of price segments of the U.S. Wine category with strong velocity, and distribution gains that are outpacing the market. Power Brand depletion volume grew 5% driven by Kim Crawford, Meiomi, SVEDKA, The Prisoner Brand Family, and Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi.
•Innovation initiatives are driving growth with Power Brands like The Prisoner Unshackled and Robert Mondavi Private Selection Buttery Chardonnay.
•Operating margin increased 240 basis points to 28.3% as benefits from price, SG&A, and mix were partially offset by the Black Velvet Divestiture and higher COGS.
•Empathy Wines acquisition reinforces and supports the company’s direct-to-consumer and 3-tier eCommerce strategy, as consumers continue to migrate to these channels.

RECONCILIATION OF REPORTED AND ORGANIC NET SALES
(in millions)
(unaudited)
For periods of acquisition, we define organic net sales as current period reported net sales less net sales of products of acquired businesses reported for the current period, as appropriate. For periods of divestiture, we define organic net sales as prior period reported net sales less net sales of products of divested businesses reported for the prior period, as appropriate. We provide organic net sales because we use this information in monitoring and evaluating the underlying business trends of our core operations. In addition, we believe this information provides investors valuable insight on underlying business trends and results in order to evaluate year-over-year financial performance.
The divestitures impacting the period below consist of the Black Velvet Divestiture (sold November 1, 2019) and the Ballast Point Divestiture (sold March 2, 2020).

(1) The effective tax rate applied to each Comparable Adjustment amount is generally based upon the jurisdiction in which the Comparable Adjustment was recognized. For the three months ended May 31, 2020, the (provision for) benefit from income taxes includes a net income tax provision recognized as a result of adjustments to valuation allowances and a net income tax provision related to legislative and governmental initiatives under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”).

(5) For the three months ended May 31, 2020, restructuring and other strategic business development costs consist primarily of equity losses from Canopy Growth Corporation (“Canopy”) related to costs designed to improve their organizational focus, streamline operations, and align production capability with projected demand. The three months ended May 31, 2020, also included costs to optimize our portfolio, gain efficiencies, reduce our cost structure, and an impairment of long-lived assets held for sale within the wine and spirits segment. For the three months ended May 31, 2019, restructuring and other strategic business development costs consist primarily of costs to optimize our portfolio, gain efficiencies, and reduce our cost structure within the wine and spirits segment.
(6) For the three months ended May 31, 2020, other consists primarily of an unrealized net loss from the mark to fair value of our investments in Canopy, costs associated with Canopy equity losses, a net income tax provision related to the CARES Act, a net loss from the mark to fair value of undesignated commodity derivative contracts, and incremental costs incurred related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
