(b) Investments in equity accounted investees Investees in which the Company has significant influence or joint control are accounted for using the equity method. The Company's investments in equity accounted investees are summarized in the following chart. Equity accounted investees Jurisdiction of incorporation Ownership interest Whistler Medical Marijuana Company ( "Whistler" Canada 19% (2017 - 20.3%) Cronos Australia Limited ( "Cronos Australia" Australia 50% MedMen Canada Inc. ( "MedMen Canada" Canada 50% Cronos Growing Company Inc. ( "Cronos GrowCo" Canada 50% NatuEra S.à r.l Luxembourg 50% (c) Basis of measurement Apart from biological assets and other investments, which are measured at fair value, the consolidated financial statements have been presented and prepared on the basis of historical cost. 2. Basis of presentation (continued) (d) Functional and presentation currency These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and all of its subsidiaries, with the exception of Cronos Israel which has a functional currency of the Israeli Shekel ( "ILS" (e) Estimates and critical judgments by management The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are reviewed periodically and adjustments are made as appropriate in the year they become known. Items for which actual results may differ materially from these estimates are described in the following section. (i) Business combinations In determining the appropriate basis of accounting for an acquisition, judgment is used to determine if an acquisition is a business combination or an asset acquisition. (ii) Control, joint control, or level of influence In determining the appropriate basis of accounting for the Company’s interests in investees, judgment is applied regarding the degree to which the Company has the ability to exert influence directly or indirectly over the investees’ financial and operating activities. (iii) Warrants and stock options Warrants and stock options are initially valued at fair value, based on the application of the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This pricing model requires management to make various assumptions and estimates which are susceptible to uncertainty, including the volatility of the share price, expected dividend yield, expected term of the warrant or stock option and expected risk-free interest rate. (iv) Useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets Long-lived assets are defined as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives. Depreciation and amortization are dependent upon estimates of useful lives and impairment is dependent upon estimates of recoverable amounts. These are determined through the exercise of judgment, and are dependent upon estimates that take into account factors such as economic and market conditions, frequency of use, anticipated changes in laws, and technological improvements. (v) Impairment of cash-generating units and goodwill The impairment test for cash generating units ( "CGUs" 2. Basis of presentation (continued) (e) Estimates and critical judgments by management (continued) (vi) Income taxes Income taxes and tax exposures recognized in the consolidated financial statements reflect management's best estimate based on facts known at the reporting date. When the Company anticipates a future income tax payment based on its estimates, it recognizes a liability. The difference between the expected amount and the final tax outcome has an impact on current and deferred taxes when the Company becomes aware of this difference. In addition, when the Company incurs losses for income tax purposes, it assesses the probability of taxable income being available in the future based on its budgeted forecasts. These forecasts are adjusted to take into account certain non-taxable income and expenses and specific rules on the use of unused credits and tax losses. When the forecasts indicate that sufficient future taxable income will be available to deduct the temporary differences, a deferred tax asset is recognized for all deductible temporary differences. (vii) Biological assets and inventory Biological assets, consisting of cannabis plants, are measured at fair value less costs to sell. At the point of harvest, the biological assets are transferred to inventory at fair value less costs to sell. As a result, critical estimates related to the valuation of biological assets are also applicable to inventory. Determining the fair value less costs to sell requires the Company to make assumptions about the expected harvest yield from the cannabis plants, the value associated with each stage of the plants' growth cycle, estimated selling price, processing costs to convert harvested cannabis into finished goods, selling costs, the equivalency factor to convert dry cannabis into cannabis oil and the multiples of crude extract and isolate mass in diluted cannabis oil. The Company's estimates are, by their nature, subject to change. Refer to Note 7. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Determining the net realizable value requires the Company to make assumptions about the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, the estimated costs of completion and the estimated variable costs to sell. (viii) Expected credit losses on financial assets Determining an allowance for expected credit losses ( "ECLs" (ix) Variable consideration in revenue from contracts with customers Determining the amount of variable consideration to recognize, and whether the amount of variable consideration should be constrained, is dependent on management's estimate of the most likely amount to which the Company will be entitled and the probability of a significant reversal in that amount. These determinations require management to make estimates based on historical amounts received, current economic conditions, and current industry conditions, in Canada and abroad, adjusted for forward looking information. (x) Returns from customers Revenue is measured net of returns. As a result, the Company is required to estimate the amount of returns based on the historical data by customer and product type, adjusted for forward-looking information.

Significant accounting policies

Text Block1 [Abstract]
Significant accounting policies	3. Significant accounting policies The principal accounting policies applied to the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below: (a) Revenue recognition Revenue is recognized at the transaction price, which is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods to a customer. Gross revenue includes excise taxes, which the Company pays as principal, but excludes duties and taxes collected on behalf of third parties. Net revenue from sale of goods, as presented in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss), represents revenue from the sale of goods less applicable excise taxes, expected price discounts, and allowances for customer returns. Excise taxes are a production tax which become payable when a cannabis product is delivered to the customer and are not directly related to the value of revenue. The Company's contracts with customers for the sales of dried cannabis and cannabis oil consist of one performance obligation. The Company has concluded that revenue from the sale of these products should be recognized at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer, which is on shipment or delivery, depending on the contract. Customer contracts for international sales of dry cannabis include profit sharing arrangements with distributors which give rise to variable consideration. If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the Company estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated as the most likely amount, based on the Company's historical information, at contract inception. The Company's payment terms vary by the type of customer. For individual consumer sales, payment is due prior to the transfer of control. For domestic non-consumer sales, payment is due 60 days after the transfer of control. For international sales, fixed consideration is due 30 days, and variable consideration is due a maximum of 120 days, after transfer of control, respectively. (b) Investments in equity accounted investees An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee without control or joint control over those decisions. Significant influence is presumed if the Company holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, unless evidence exists to the contrary. A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the Company has joint control over, and rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. The Company's interest in an investee is initially recorded at cost and is subsequently adjusted for the Company's share of changes in the net assets of the investee, less any impairment in the value of individual investments, and any dividends paid. Where the Company transacts with an investee, unrealized profits and losses are eliminated to the extent of the Company's interest in that investee. (c) Biological assets and inventory The Company measures biological assets consisting of cannabis plants, at fair value less costs to sell up to the point of harvest. Costs incurred to transform biological assets to the point of harvest ( "production costs" 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) (c) Biological assets and inventory (continued) Inventories of finished goods and work-in-process are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventories of harvested cannabis are transferred from biological assets at their fair value at the point of harvest, which becomes the initial deemed cost. Any subsequent post-harvest costs (" processing costs Upon the sale of inventory, the capitalized production costs and processing costs are recorded in cost of sales before fair value adjustments in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The related realized fair value adjustments on inventory sold in the year is recorded separately in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) (d ) Intangible assets Intangible assets are recorded at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Impairment for intangible assets with finite lives is tested if there is any indication of impairment. Intangible assets acquired through a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the following methods and rates: Method Rate Software Double declining 50% Health Canada Licenses Straight-line Useful life of corresponding facilities Israeli Codes Straight-line Useful life of corresponding facilities Amortization begins when assets become available for use. The estimated useful life, amortization method, and rate are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. (e ) Research and development costs Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditures are capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends, and has sufficient resources, to complete development and use or sell the product or process. All other development costs are expensed as incurred. 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) (f) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the following methods and rates: Method Rate Building structures Straight-line 15 to 20 years Furniture and equipment Straight-line 5 years Computer equipment Straight-line 3 years Security equipment Straight-line 5 years Production equipment Straight-line 7 years Road Straight-line 25 years Leasehold improvements Straight-line 5 to 10 years Equipment under finance lease Straight-line Lesser of term of lease and useful life of equipment The estimated residual value, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate components. Construction in progress is transferred to the appropriate asset class when the building is available for use, which is defined as the point at which the building receives the Health Canada licenses to (i) possess cannabis, (ii) to obtain dried cannabis, fresh cannabis, cannabis plants or cannabis plant seeds by cultivating, propagating and harvesting cannabis, and (iii) to produce cannabis, other than obtaining it by cultivating, propagating, or harvesting. Depreciation commences at the point the assets are classified as available for use. (g) Provisions A provision is recorded when it becomes probable that a present obligation arising from a past event will require an outflow of resources that can be reliably estimated. The amount of the provision recorded, if any, is management's best estimate of the outflow of resources required to settle the obligation. Where a potential obligation resulting from past events exists, but occurrence of the outflow of resources is not probable or the estimate is not reliable, these contingent liabilities are disclosed as contingencies. (h) Share capital Share capital is presented at the fair value of the shares issued. Costs related to the issuance of shares are reported in equity, net of tax, as a deduction from the issuance proceeds. ( i ) Foreign exchange translation Translation of foreign currency transactions Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. At each reporting date, foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates. Exchange differences arising from operating transactions are recorded in profit or loss for the period; exchange differences related to financing transactions are recognized in finance income or directly in equity. Translation of foreign operations The assets and liabilities of Cronos Israel are translated into Canadian dollars at year-end exchange rates. Income and expenses, and cash flows are translated into Canadian dollars using average exchange rates. Differences resulting from translating foreign operations are reported as translation differences in other comprehensive income, and accumulated in equity. When a foreign operation is disposed of, the translation differences previously recognized in equity are reclassified to profit or loss. 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) (j) Income taxes The Company accounts for its income taxes using the liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the carrying amount and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities. Any change in the net amount of deferred income tax assets and liabilities is included in profit or loss, except for changes related to the components of other comprehensive income or equity, in which case the tax expense is recognized in other comprehensive income or equity, respectively. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on enacted or substantively enacted tax rates and laws which are expected to apply to taxable profit for the years in which the assets and liabilities will be recovered or settled. Deferred income tax assets are recorded when their recoverability is considered probable and are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are not discounted. (k) Share-based payments Equity instruments granted are initially measured at fair value at the grant date. Where equity instruments are granted to employees, they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) over the vesting period. Where equity instruments are granted to non-employees, they are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received. The related costs for all equity-settled stock-based payments are reflected in share-based reserve, until the instruments are exercised. Upon exercise, shares are issued from treasury and the amount previously reflected in the share-based reserve is, along with any proceeds paid upon exercise, credited to share capital. (l) Earnings (loss) per share The Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share data for its common shares. Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, for the effects of all potentially dilutive common shares, which comprise warrants, stock options, and share appreciation rights. 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) (m) Financial instruments All financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition. The Company aggregates its financial instruments in accordance with IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, into classes based on their nature and characteristics. Management determines the classification when the instruments are initially recognized, which is normally the date of the transaction. The Company's accounting policy for each class of financial instruments is as follows: Classification Financial instruments Accounting policy Amortized cost Cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, loan receivable, advances to joint ventures, accounts payable and other liabilities, holdbacks payable, construction loan payable, due to non-controlling interests These financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, these instruments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Financial assets are adjusted for any ECLs. ( i ) Fair value through profit or loss Other investments (investment in warrants of AbCann Global Corp.) These financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value; all transaction costs are recognized immediately in profit or loss. Subsequently, these instruments are recognized at fair value at each reporting date. Any changes in fair value, and gains or losses upon disposition of the financial instruments are recognized in profit or loss. Fair value through other comprehensive income (equity instruments) Other investments (investments in Canopy Growth Corporation, Evergreen Medicinal Supply Inc.) These equity instruments are irrevocably classified in this category, and are initially recognized at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, these instruments are recognized at fair value at each reporting date. Any changes in fair value and gains or losses upon disposition of the financial instruments are recognized in other comprehensive income in the period during which the change occurs. ( i ) Critical to the determination of ECLs is the definition of default and the definition of a significant increase in credit risk. The definition of default is used in measuring the amount of ECLs and in the determination of whether the loss allowance is based on a 12-month or lifetime ECLs. The Company considers the following as constituting an event of default: the borrower is past due more than 90 days on any material credit obligation, or the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Company in full. The Company monitors all financial assets that are subject to the impairment requirements to assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If there has been a significant increase in credit risk, the Company will measure the loss allowance based on lifetime rather than 12-month ECLs. In assessing whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial asset at the reporting date based on the remaining maturity of the instrument with the risk of a default occurring that was anticipated for the remaining maturity at the current reporting date when the financial asset was first recognized. (n) Business combinations and consolidation Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, which is measured at fair value at acquisition date, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.

Adoption of new accounting pronouncements	4. Adoption of new accounting pronouncements (a) Amendments to IFRS 2 Share-based payments The amendments to IFRS 2 clarify how to account for certain types of share-based payment transactions. The amendments provide requirements on the accounting for the effects of vesting and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments, share-based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations, and a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equity-settled. The effective date of these amendments was January 1, 2018. The Company has adopted these amendments as of the effective date and has assessed no significant changes as a result of the adoption of these amendments. (b) IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers IFRS 15 was issued by the IASB in May 2014 and specifies how and when revenue should be recognized based on a five-step model, which is applied to all contracts with customers. IFRS 15 became effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted this new standard as of its effective date using the full retrospective method of adoption, and has assessed no significant changes as a result of the adoption of this new standard. Under IFRS 15, the revenue recognition model has changed from one based on the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership, to one based on the transfer of control. The Company’s contracts with customers for the sales of dried cannabis and cannabis oil include one performance obligation, a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a good. As the transfer of risks and rewards generally coincides with the transfer of control at a point in time, upon shipment or delivery, depending on the contract, the timing and amount of revenue considering discounts, returns, and variable consideration, recognized from this principal revenue stream has not changed as a result of the adoption of this new standard. (c) IFRS 9 Financial instruments IFRS 9 addresses classification and measurement of financial assets and replaces the multiple category and measurement models in IAS 39 for debt instruments with a new mixed measurement model having only three categories: amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income, and fair value through profit or loss. IFRS 9 also replaces the models for measuring equity instruments and such instruments are either recognized at fair value through profit or loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The effective date of this standard was January 1, 2018. The Company has adopted this new standard as of its effective date on a retrospective basis with the exception of financial assets that were derecognized at the date of initial application, January 1, 2018. The 2017 comparatives were not restated. As a result of the new classification model and measurement requirements under IFRS 9, the Company has elected to classify the available-for-sale equity investments as fair value through other comprehensive income investments, as they are not held for trading by the Company. Under this classification, there is no recycling of gains or losses from accumulated other comprehensive income to profit or loss. Due to the adoption of IFRS 9, during the year ended December 31, 2018, a net gain of approximately $294 on the disposition of investments classified as fair value through other comprehensive income was recorded in other comprehensive income rather than profit or loss. These investments had a fair value of $961 immediately prior to disposition. The new classification and measurement of the Company's financial assets are as follows: (i) Equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income ( "FVOCI" This category only includes equity instruments, which the Company intends to hold for the foreseeable future and which the Company has irrevocably elected to so classify upon initial recognition or transition. The Company classified its quoted and unquoted equity instruments as equity instruments at FVOCI. Equity instruments in this category are subsequently measured at fair value with changes recognized in other comprehensive income, with no recycling of gains or losses to profit or loss upon derecognition. Dividend income is recognized in earnings. Equity instruments at FVOCI are not subject to an impairment assessment under IFRS 9. 4. Adoption of new accounting pronouncements (continued) (c) IFRS 9 Financial instruments (continued) (ii) Amortized cost This category includes financial assets that are held within a business model with the objective to hold the financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows that meet the solely principal and interest ( "SPPI" (iii) Fair value through profit or loss ( "FVTPL" This category includes derivative instruments as well as quoted equity instruments which the Company has not irrevocably elected, at initial recognition or transition, to classify at FVOCI. This category would also include debt instruments whose cash flow characteristics fail the SPPI criterion or are not held within a business model whose objective is either to collect contractual cash flows, or to both collect contractual cash flows and sell. Financial assets in this category are recorded at fair value with changes recognized in profit or loss. The assessment of the Company's business models was made as of the date of initial application, January 1, 2018, and then applied retrospectively to those financial instruments that were not derecognized before January 1, 2018. IFRS 9 IAS 39 Financial assets Cash Amortized cost FVTPL Accounts receivable Amortized cost Amortized cost Other receivables Amortized cost Amortized cost Loan receivable Amortized cost Amortized cost Advances to joint ventures Amortized cost Amortized cost Other investments (Refer to Note 11) FVTPL - ABcann share warrants FVOCI - Canopy, ABcann shares, Evergreen FVTPL - ABcann share warrants Available-for-sale - Canopy, ABcann shares, Evergreen Financial liabilities Accounts payable and other liabilities Amortized cost Amortized cost Holdbacks payable Amortized cost Amortized cost Construction loan payable Amortized cost Amortized cost There were no changes in the carrying amounts of the financial instruments as a result of the adoption of IFRS 9 as at the date of initial application. (iv) Impairment of financial assets The adoption of IFRS 9 has fundamentally changed the Company's accounting of impairment losses for financial assets by replacing IAS 39's incurred loss approach with a forward-looking expected credit loss approach. There were no impairment losses recognized in these consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of IFRS 9 as at the date of initial application.

Description Of Expected Impact Of Initial Application Of New Standards Or Interpretations [Abstract]
New and revised standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective	5. New and revised standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective (a) IFRS 16 Leases IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016 and replaces the previous guidance on leases. This standard provides a single recognition and measurement model to be applied by lessees to leases, with required recognition of assets and liabilities for most leases. This standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted if the Company is also applying IFRS 15, Revenue from contracts with customers. The Company will adopt this new standard as of its effective date. The Company has reviewed all of the Company’s leasing arrangements outstanding as at December 31, 2018, in respect of the new lease standard. The standard will primarily affect the accounting for the Company's operating leases. At the reporting date, the Company has non-cancellable operating lease commitments of $5,950, see Note 21(a). The Company intends to apply the simplified transition approach and will not restate comparative amounts to the year prior to adoption. In respect of these lease commitments, the Company expects to recognize right-of-use assets of approximately $1,722, current lease liabilities of $303 and non-current lease liabilities of $1,642 as at January 1, 2019. Pursuant to the application of the simplified transition approach, the Company expects a one-time adjustment to increase the opening accumulated deficit as at January 1, 2019 of $223. The Company expects that profit or loss will decrease by approximately $98 for the year ended December 31, 2019 as a result of the application of IFRS 16. (b) IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over income tax treatments IFRIC 23 clarifies the application of recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12, Income taxes, when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. It specifically addresses whether an entity considers each tax treatment independently or collectively, the assumptions an entity makes about the examination of tax treatments by taxation authorities, how an entity determines taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates, and how an entity considers changes in facts and circumstances. IFRIC 23 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2019, with earlier application permitted. The Company will adopt this interpretation as of its effective date. The Company has performed a preliminary analysis and has not assessed any significant impact as a result of the adoption of this standard.

Disclosure Of Voluntary Change In Accounting Policy [Abstract]
Accounting Changes	6. Accounting changes (a) Change in estimate During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company revised its estimate of the useful life of the Health Canada Licenses, and assessed that the licenses have an estimated useful life equal to the remaining useful life of the corresponding facilities described in Note 13(a). Previously, the Company estimated that the Health Canada licenses had an indefinite life. The change in estimate was accounted for prospectively. (b) Change in accounting policy During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company made a voluntary change in accounting policy to capitalize the direct and indirect costs attributable to the biological asset transformation. The previous accounting policy was to expense these costs as period costs. The new accounting policy is included in Note 3(c). The new accounting policy provides more reliable and relevant information to users as the gross profit before fair value adjustments only considers the costs incurred on inventory sold during the year, and excludes costs incurred on the biological transformation until the related harvest is sold. The following demonstrates the change for each prior period presented. There is no impact of this policy change on gross profit, net income (loss), basic and diluted earnings per share, the consolidated statement of financial position, or the consolidated the statement of changes in equity on the current or any prior period, upon retrospective application. 6.

Biological assets and inventory	7. Biological assets and inventory (a) Biological assets The Company's biological assets consist of cannabis plants. The changes in the carrying amounts of the biological assets are as follows: 2018 (Note 6) 2017 (Note 6) Biological assets - beginning of year $ 3,722 $ 1,795 Capitalization of production costs 7,145 3,983 Unrealized change in fair value of biological assets 11,568 7,637 Transferred to inventory upon harvest (13,361 ) (9,693 ) Biological assets - end of year $ 9,074 $ 3,722 As of December 31, 2018, it is expected that the Company's biological assets will ultimately yield approximately 6,303 kg of dry cannabis (2017 - 1,695 kg). As at December 31, 2018, the Company has 46,004 plants (2017 - 7,353 plants) classified as biological assets. The Company measures its biological assets at fair value less costs to sell. This valuation is based on the expected harvest yield (in grams) for plants currently being cultivated, adjusted for the expected selling price less post-harvest costs attributable to bringing a harvested gram of cannabis to a saleable condition and ultimate sale (on a per gram basis). The Company accretes the fair value of each cannabis plant on a straight-line basis over the expected growing cycle. As at December 31, 2018, the plants were on average 6 weeks (2017 - 7 weeks) into the growing cycle 37% complete (2017 - 46%) and were ascribed approximately 37% (2017 - 46%) of their expected fair value at harvest date. (b) Inventory Inventory as at December 31, 2018 consisted of the following: 2018 2017 kg $ kg $ Dry cannabis Finished goods 187 kg $ 972 815 kg $ 6,145 Work-in-process 1,789 kg 7,733 243 kg 1,630 8,705 7,775 Cannabis oils Finished goods 115 kg 656 18 kg 332 Work-in-process 220 kg 1,250 nil kg - 1,906 332 Raw materials ( i ) 171 ( i ) 183 Supplies and consumables 802 126 $ 11,584 $ 8,416 ( i ) Raw materials consisted of 0.267 kg (2017 - 0.288 kg) of seeds held by the Company as at December 31, 2018. As at December 31, 2018, the Company held 29 kg (2017 - 4 kg) of dry cannabis and 4 kg (2017 - 1 kg) of cannabis oils as retention samples. These samples are recorded at a value of $nil on the consolidated statements of financial position as they are not saleable. 7. Biological assets and inventory (continued) (c) Direct and indirect cost allocations The direct and indirect costs related to biological assets and inventory are allocated as follows. The allocation basis was consistent for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, unless otherwise specified. Nature of cost Allocation basis Consumables (insect control, fertilizers, soil) 100% allocated to production costs; incurred to support plant growth Labour costs (including salaries and benefits) Allocated based on job descriptions of various personnel; 30% allocated to processing costs; 40% allocated to production costs; 30% allocated to operating expenses (2017 - 20%; 70%; and 10%; respectively) Supplies and small tools 80% allocated to production costs; 20% allocated to processing costs Utilities Allocated based on estimates of usage, 10% allocated to processing costs; 90% allocated to production costs Property taxes, depreciation, security Allocated based on estimates of square footage, 20% allocated to processing costs; 50% allocated to production costs; 30% allocated to operating expenses Packaging costs 100% allocated to processing costs (d) Significant inputs and sensitivity analyses The Company has made the following estimates related to significant inputs in the valuation model: Significant inputs Allocation basis Net selling price per gram Estimated net selling price per gram of dry cannabis based on historical sales and anticipated prices, after adjustment for excise taxes Harvest yield per plant Expected grams of dry cannabis to be harvested from a cannabis plant, based on the weighted average historical yields by plant strain Stage of growth Weighted average plant age (in weeks) out of the 16 week growing cycle as of the period end date Processing costs per gram Estimated post-harvest costs per gram to bring a gram of harvested cannabis to its saleable condition, including drying, curing, testing and packaging, and overhead allocation; estimated based on post-harvest costs incurred during the period divided by number of grams processed during the period Selling costs per gram Estimated shipping, order fulfillment, and labelling costs per gram; calculated as selling costs incurred during the period divided by number of grams sold during the period Equivalency factor Estimated grams of dry cannabis required to produce one milliliter of cannabis oil; estimated based on historical results Mass multipliers Estimated multiples of crude extract and isolate mass in diluted cannabis oil products These inputs are level 3 on the fair value hierarchy, and are subject to volatility and several uncontrollable factors, which could significantly affect the fair value of biological assets in future periods. 7. Biological assets and inventory (continued) (d) Significant inputs and sensitivity analyses (continued) The following table quantifies each of the significant unobservable inputs described above and provides a sensitivity analysis of the impact on the reported values of biological assets and inventory. The sensitivity analysis for each significant input is performed by assuming a 5% decrease in the input while other significant inputs remain constant at management's best estimate as of the period end date.

These assumptions are based on the Company’s historical results, the preliminary results of the first quarter of the following fiscal year, and management’s expectations of the cash flows based on budgeted results, taking into account estimated sales volume and price changes. The impairment test performed resulted in no impairment of goodwill at December 31, 2018 and no impairment of goodwill or indefinite life intangible assets at December 31, 2017. Management has not identified a reasonably possible change in these key assumptions that could cause the carrying amount of either CGU to exceed its recoverable amount.

Disclosure Of Financial Instruments [Abstract]
Financial instruments	25. Financial instruments (a) Credit 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, loan 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 $44,166 as at December 31, 2018 (2017 - $10,662). (i) Accounts receivable 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. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recognized an approximate expected credit loss allowance of $50 (2017 - $nil). Provided below is the information about the credit risk exposure on the Company's accounts receivable using a provision matrix of expected credit loss rates against an analysis of the age of accounts receivable: Expected credit loss rates 2018 2017 Less than 30 days past billing date 0% to 3% $ 3,980 $ 1,020 31 to 60 days past billing date 0% to 5% 136 85 61 to 90 days past billing date 0% to 8% - 35 91 to 120 days past billing date 0% to 12% 19 - Over 120 days past billing date 0% to 18% 28 - $ 4,163 $ 1,140 The Company has assessed that there is a concentration of credit risk, as 87.6% of the Company's accounts receivable were due from 5 customers as at December 31, 2018 (2017 - 89.3% due from 2 customers). 25. Financial instruments (continued) (a) Credit risk (continued) (ii) Cash The Company held cash of $32,634 at December 31, 2018 (2017 - $9,208). The cash is held with central banks and financial institution counterparties that are highly rated. (iii) Advances to joint ventures The Company has assessed that there has been no significant increase in credit risk of these advances from initial recognition based on the financial position of the borrowers, and the regulatory and economic environment of the borrowers. As a result, the loss allowance recognized during the period was limited to 12 months expected credit losses. Based on historical information, and adjusted for forward-looking expectations, the Company has assessed an insignificant loss allowance on these advances as at December 31, 2018. (b) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due, and arises principally from the Company’s accounts payable and other liabilities, holdbacks payable, government remittances payable, construction loan payable, and due to non-controlling interests. The Company's policy is to review liquidity resources and ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet financial obligations as they become due. Further, the Company's management is responsible for ensuring funds exist and are readily accessible to support business opportunities as they arise. The Company's funding is primarily provided in the form of capital raised through the issuance of shares. As at December 31, 2018, 35% of the Company’s payables were due to 1 vendor (2017 - 89.3% due to 2 vendors). The following represents an analysis of the age of accounts payable: 2018 2017 Less than 30 days past billing date $ 1,201 $ 6,725 31 to 60 days past billing date 365 113 61 to 90 days past billing date 29 66 Over 90 days past billing date - 172 $ 1,595 $ 7,076 Subsequent to December 31, 2018, the Company received cash inflows from the transaction noted in Note 28(f). 25. Financial instruments (continued) (c) Market risk (i) Price risk Price risk is the risk that the fair value of, or future cash flows from, the Company's financial instruments will significantly fluctuate due to changes in market prices. The value of the financial instruments can be affected by changes in interest rates, market and economic conditions, and equity and commodity prices. The Company is exposed to price risk in divesting its investments, such that, unfavorable market conditions could result in dispositions of investments at less than favorable prices. Further, the revaluation of securities classified as fair value through other comprehensive income, could result in significant write-downs of the Company's investments, which would have an adverse impact on the Company's financial position. The Company previously managed price risk by having a portfolio of securities from multiple issuers, such that the Company was not singularly exposed to any one issuer. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company sold a significant portion of its investments subject to price risk, and subsequent to December 31, 2018, were fully divested. Refer to Note 28(a). (ii) Concentration risk Concentration risk is the risk that any single investment or group thereof, has the potential to materially affect the operating results of the Company. The Company is exposed to this risk as all of its investments are currently within the cannabis industry. As such, the Company's financial results may be adversely affected by the unfavorable performance of those investments or the industry in which they operate. The Company manages concentration risk by investing in the cannabis industry of various countries. (d) Currency rate risk Currency rate risk is the risk that the fair value of, or future cash flows from, the Company's financial instruments will significantly fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to this risk on advances to joint ventures denominated in AUD, refer to Note 9. The Company is further exposed to this risk through subsidiaries operating in Israel, refer to Note 2(d). The Company does not currently use foreign exchange contracts to hedge its exposure to currency rate risk as management has determined that this risk is not significant at this point in time. As such, the Company's financial position and financial results may be adversely affected by the unfavorable fluctuations in currency exchange rates. The following table provides a summary of foreign currency (in thousands) denominated financial assets and liabilities: Currency 2018 2017 Advance to joint ventures AUD $ 1,029 $ - Cash ILS ₪ 840 ₪ - Sales taxes receivable ILS ₪ 2,066 ₪ - Accounts payable and other liabilities ILS ₪ 1,083 ₪ - Due to non-controlling interests ILS ₪ 5,878 ₪ - A 10% strengthening of the Canadian dollar against the foreign currencies listed above would increase the net loss by $90 and decrease other comprehensive income by $326. A 10% weakening of the Canadian dollar against the foreign currencies listed above would result in an equal, but opposite effect. It is management's opinion that the Company is not subject to significant interest rate risk.

Disclosure Of Fair Value Measurement Of Assets [Abstract]
Fair value hierarchy	26. Fair value hierarchy Assets recorded at fair value on the consolidated statements of financial position are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels: Level 1 - valuation based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. In these consolidated financial statements, other investments (Canopy, Hydropothecary, and ABcann shares) are included in this category. Level 2 - valuation techniques based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. In these consolidated financial statements, ABcann share purchase warrants are included in this category. Level 3 - valuation techniques using the inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data. In these consolidated financial statements, other investments (Evergreen), and biological assets are included in this category. The Company's policy for determining when transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy occur is based on the date of the event or changes in circumstances that caused the transfer. During the year ended December 31, 2018, there were no transfers between levels. During the year ended December 31, 2017, Hydropothecary and ABcann became publicly traded. Due to these events, the investment in Hydropothecary and ABcann were transferred out of Level 3 as the inputs for the valuation of the investment were no longer unobservable. The investment in Hydropothecary and ABcann were transferred into Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, as the valuations of the investments were based on quoted prices in an active market. For all financial instruments classified as amortized cost, the carrying value approximates fair value.

Disclosure Of Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Revenue recognition	(a) Revenue recognition Revenue is recognized at the transaction price, which is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods to a customer. Gross revenue includes excise taxes, which the Company pays as principal, but excludes duties and taxes collected on behalf of third parties. Net revenue from sale of goods, as presented in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss), represents revenue from the sale of goods less applicable excise taxes, expected price discounts, and allowances for customer returns. Excise taxes are a production tax which become payable when a cannabis product is delivered to the customer and are not directly related to the value of revenue. The Company's contracts with customers for the sales of dried cannabis and cannabis oil consist of one performance obligation. The Company has concluded that revenue from the sale of these products should be recognized at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer, which is on shipment or delivery, depending on the contract. Customer contracts for international sales of dry cannabis include profit sharing arrangements with distributors which give rise to variable consideration. If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the Company estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated as the most likely amount, based on the Company's historical information, at contract inception. The Company's payment terms vary by the type of customer. For individual consumer sales, payment is due prior to the transfer of control. For domestic non-consumer sales, payment is due 60 days after the transfer of control. For international sales, fixed consideration is due 30 days, and variable consideration is due a maximum of 120 days, after transfer of control, respectively.
Investments in equity accounted investees	(b) Investments in equity accounted investees An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee without control or joint control over those decisions. Significant influence is presumed if the Company holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, unless evidence exists to the contrary. A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the Company has joint control over, and rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. The Company's interest in an investee is initially recorded at cost and is subsequently adjusted for the Company's share of changes in the net assets of the investee, less any impairment in the value of individual investments, and any dividends paid. Where the Company transacts with an investee, unrealized profits and losses are eliminated to the extent of the Company's interest in that investee.
Biological assets and inventory	(c) Biological assets and inventory The Company measures biological assets consisting of cannabis plants, at fair value less costs to sell up to the point of harvest. Costs incurred to transform biological assets to the point of harvest ( "production costs" 3. Significant accounting policies (continued) (c) Biological assets and inventory (continued) Inventories of finished goods and work-in-process are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventories of harvested cannabis are transferred from biological assets at their fair value at the point of harvest, which becomes the initial deemed cost. Any subsequent post-harvest costs (" processing costs Upon the sale of inventory, the capitalized production costs and processing costs are recorded in cost of sales before fair value adjustments in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The related realized fair value adjustments on inventory sold in the year is recorded separately in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss)
Intangible assets	(d ) Intangible assets Intangible assets are recorded at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Impairment for intangible assets with finite lives is tested if there is any indication of impairment. Intangible assets acquired through a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the following methods and rates: Method Rate Software Double declining 50% Health Canada Licenses Straight-line Useful life of corresponding facilities Israeli Codes Straight-line Useful life of corresponding facilities Amortization begins when assets become available for use. The estimated useful life, amortization method, and rate are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Research and development costs	(e ) Research and development costs Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditures are capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends, and has sufficient resources, to complete development and use or sell the product or process. All other development costs are expensed as incurred.
Property, plant and equipment	(f) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the following methods and rates: Method Rate Building structures Straight-line 15 to 20 years Furniture and equipment Straight-line 5 years Computer equipment Straight-line 3 years Security equipment Straight-line 5 years Production equipment Straight-line 7 years Road Straight-line 25 years Leasehold improvements Straight-line 5 to 10 years Equipment under finance lease Straight-line Lesser of term of lease and useful life of equipment The estimated residual value, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate components. Construction in progress is transferred to the appropriate asset class when the building is available for use, which is defined as the point at which the building receives the Health Canada licenses to (i) possess cannabis, (ii) to obtain dried cannabis, fresh cannabis, cannabis plants or cannabis plant seeds by cultivating, propagating and harvesting cannabis, and (iii) to produce cannabis, other than obtaining it by cultivating, propagating, or harvesting. Depreciation commences at the point the assets are classified as available for use.
Provisions	(g) Provisions A provision is recorded when it becomes probable that a present obligation arising from a past event will require an outflow of resources that can be reliably estimated. The amount of the provision recorded, if any, is management's best estimate of the outflow of resources required to settle the obligation. Where a potential obligation resulting from past events exists, but occurrence of the outflow of resources is not probable or the estimate is not reliable, these contingent liabilities are disclosed as contingencies.
Share capital	(h) Share capital Share capital is presented at the fair value of the shares issued. Costs related to the issuance of shares are reported in equity, net of tax, as a deduction from the issuance proceeds.
Foreign exchange translation	( i ) Foreign exchange translation Translation of foreign currency transactions Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. At each reporting date, foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates. Exchange differences arising from operating transactions are recorded in profit or loss for the period; exchange differences related to financing transactions are recognized in finance income or directly in equity. Translation of foreign operations The assets and liabilities of Cronos Israel are translated into Canadian dollars at year-end exchange rates. Income and expenses, and cash flows are translated into Canadian dollars using average exchange rates. Differences resulting from translating foreign operations are reported as translation differences in other comprehensive income, and accumulated in equity. When a foreign operation is disposed of, the translation differences previously recognized in equity are reclassified to profit or loss. 3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Income taxes	(j) Income taxes The Company accounts for its income taxes using the liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the carrying amount and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities. Any change in the net amount of deferred income tax assets and liabilities is included in profit or loss, except for changes related to the components of other comprehensive income or equity, in which case the tax expense is recognized in other comprehensive income or equity, respectively. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on enacted or substantively enacted tax rates and laws which are expected to apply to taxable profit for the years in which the assets and liabilities will be recovered or settled. Deferred income tax assets are recorded when their recoverability is considered probable and are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
Share-based payments	(k) Share-based payments Equity instruments granted are initially measured at fair value at the grant date. Where equity instruments are granted to employees, they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) over the vesting period. Where equity instruments are granted to non-employees, they are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received. The related costs for all equity-settled stock-based payments are reflected in share-based reserve, until the instruments are exercised. Upon exercise, shares are issued from treasury and the amount previously reflected in the share-based reserve is, along with any proceeds paid upon exercise, credited to share capital.
Earnings (loss) per share	(l) Earnings (loss) per share The Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share data for its common shares. Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, for the effects of all potentially dilutive common shares, which comprise warrants, stock options, and share appreciation rights.
Financial instruments	3. Significant accounting policies (continued) (m) Financial instruments All financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition. The Company aggregates its financial instruments in accordance with IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, into classes based on their nature and characteristics. Management determines the classification when the instruments are initially recognized, which is normally the date of the transaction. The Company's accounting policy for each class of financial instruments is as follows: Classification Financial instruments Accounting policy Amortized cost Cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, loan receivable, advances to joint ventures, accounts payable and other liabilities, holdbacks payable, construction loan payable, due to non-controlling interests These financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, these instruments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Financial assets are adjusted for any ECLs. ( i ) Fair value through profit or loss Other investments (investment in warrants of AbCann Global Corp.) These financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value; all transaction costs are recognized immediately in profit or loss. Subsequently, these instruments are recognized at fair value at each reporting date. Any changes in fair value, and gains or losses upon disposition of the financial instruments are recognized in profit or loss. Fair value through other comprehensive income (equity instruments) Other investments (investments in Canopy Growth Corporation, Evergreen Medicinal Supply Inc.) These equity instruments are irrevocably classified in this category, and are initially recognized at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, these instruments are recognized at fair value at each reporting date. Any changes in fair value and gains or losses upon disposition of the financial instruments are recognized in other comprehensive income in the period during which the change occurs. ( i ) Critical to the determination of ECLs is the definition of default and the definition of a significant increase in credit risk. The definition of default is used in measuring the amount of ECLs and in the determination of whether the loss allowance is based on a 12-month or lifetime ECLs. The Company considers the following as constituting an event of default: the borrower is past due more than 90 days on any material credit obligation, or the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Company in full. The Company monitors all financial assets that are subject to the impairment requirements to assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If there has been a significant increase in credit risk, the Company will measure the loss allowance based on lifetime rather than 12-month ECLs. In assessing whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial asset at the reporting date based on the remaining maturity of the instrument with the risk of a default occurring that was anticipated for the remaining maturity at the current reporting date when the financial asset was first recognized.
Business combinations and consolidation	(n) Business combinations and consolidation Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred, which is measured at fair value at acquisition date, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.

Description of expected credit losses	Critical to the determination of ECLs is the definition of default and the definition of a significant increase in credit risk. The definition of default is used in measuring the amount of ECLs and in the determination of whether the loss allowance is based on a 12-month or lifetime ECLs. The Company considers the following as constituting an event of default: the borrower is past due more than 90 days on any material credit obligation, or the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Company in full. The Company monitors all financial assets that are subject to the impairment requirements to assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If there has been a significant increase in credit risk, the Company will measure the loss allowance based on lifetime rather than 12-month ECLs. In assessing whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial asset at the reporting date based on the remaining maturity of the instrument with the risk of a default occurring that was anticipated for the remaining maturity at the current reporting date when the financial asset was first recognized.
