Background, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Background, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)Background
Cronos Group Inc. (“Cronos” or the “Company”) is incorporated in the province of British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) with principal executive offices at 4491 Concession Rd 12, Stayner, Ontario, L0M 1S0. 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 is a global cannabis company focused on scaling leading consumer goods products through research and development and innovation. With a passion to responsibly elevate the consumer experience, Cronos is building an iconic brand portfolio. Cronos’ diverse international brand portfolio includes Spinach®, PEACE NATURALS®, LIT and Lord Jones®.
(b)Basis of presentation
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Cronos 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 (the “SEC”) 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 adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 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, 2025 (the “Annual Report”).
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period 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 has determined that it has one operating segment and therefore one reportable segment, which is comprised of operations in Canada and Israel and is involved in the cultivation, manufacture, and marketing of cannabis and cannabis-derived products for the medical and adult-use markets.
(d)Revenue recognition
The following table presents the Company’s revenue by major product category:

Israel14,151 9,229 
Other countries5,708 2,903 
Net revenue$45,210 $32,262 
(e)Short-term Investments
Short-term investments are classified as held-to-maturity and recorded at cost. Interest earned on short-term investments is recorded in interest receivables on the consolidated balance sheets and interest income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). Cash inflows and outflows related to the purchase and maturity of short-term investments are classified as investing activities in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s short-term investments of nil and $40,000, respectively, were comprised of Guaranteed Investment Certificates held in Canada.
(f)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 and loans receivable. The Company’s maximum exposure to this risk is equal to the carrying amount of these financial assets, which amounted to $895,029 and $909,839 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 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 and current conditions. Effective January 1, 2026, the Company elected the practical expedient under ASU 2025-05, which permits the assumption that current conditions as of the reporting date remain unchanged for the remaining life of the asset when developing the expected credit loss estimate for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from contracts with customers. Accounts receivable are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, among 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 March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $12 and $9, respectively, in expected credit losses that have been recognized on receivables from contracts with customers.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company assessed that there is a concentration of credit risk, as 21% of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from one customer with an established credit history with the Company. As of December 31, 2025, 16% of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from one customer 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 net revenue before excise taxes. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $24,597 from two major customers, together accounting for 42% of the Company’s total net revenue before excise taxes. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $17,751 from two major customers, together accounting for 42% of the Company’s total net revenue before excise taxes.
(g)Adoption of new accounting pronouncement
In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025-05”). ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. Entities should apply the new guidance prospectively. This ASU effectively simplifies the expected credit loss analysis on accounts receivable and contract assets. Entities may now elect a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the asset when evaluating the likelihood of repayment. The adoption of ASU 2025-05 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
(h)New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 adds an obligation under ASC 220-40 to require a footnote disclosure about specific expenses by requiring public business entities to disaggregate, in a tabular presentation, each relevant expense caption on the face of the income statement that includes any of the following natural expenses: (1) purchases of inventory, (2) employee compensation, (3) depreciation, (4) intangible asset amortization, and (5) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil and gas-producing activities or other types of depletion expenses. The tabular disclosure would also include certain other expenses, when applicable. ASU 2024-03 does not change or remove existing expense disclosure requirements; however, it may affect where that information appears in the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and applicable entities are required to adopt ASU 2024-03 prospectively; however, companies are permitted to apply the amendments in ASU 2024-03 retrospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2024-03 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In January 2025, the effective date was further clarified with the issuance of ASU 2025-01, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). No guidance was changed with ASU 2025-01, but the issuance simply ensures that all public business entities have a clear and consistent timeline for implementing the enhanced expense disaggregation disclosures.
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Improvements to Interim Disclosure Requirements. The ASU clarifies and reorganizes existing interim reporting guidance to improve its operability and consistency, primarily by emphasizing that interim disclosures should focus on significant changes since the most recent annual reporting period. The amendments do not change the recognition or measurement of amounts reported in the financial statements. The guidance is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The adoption of ASU 2025-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
