Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
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 111 Peter St., Suite 300, Toronto, Ontario, M5V 2H1. The Company’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “CRON.” Cronos is an innovative global cannabinoid company committed to building disruptive intellectual property by advancing cannabis research, technology and product development. 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 ® 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, 2024 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, 2023 (the “Annual Report”). Certain prior period 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) Discontinued Operations In the second quarter of 2023, the Company exited its U.S. hemp-derived cannabinoid product operations. The exit of the U.S. operations represented a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and as such, qualifies for reporting as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to reflect the discontinued operations classification of the U.S. operations. For more information, see Note 2 “ Discontinued Operations ”. (d) 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. Prior to the second quarter of 2023, the Company reported results for two reportable segments, the U.S. and Rest of World. In the second quarter of 2023, as a result of the Company’s exit of its then-existing U.S. operations, the Company 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 . All prior period segment disclosure information has been reclassified to conform to the current reporting structure in this Form 10-Q. These reclassifications had no effect on our consolidated financial statements in any period presented. (e) Revenue recognition The following tables present the Company’s revenue by major product category for continuing operations: Three months ended March 31, 2024 2023 Cannabis flower $ 17,525 $ 13,128 Cannabis extracts 7,727 6,301 Other 36 66 Net revenue $ 25,288 $ 19,495 Net revenue attributed to a geographic region based on the location of the customer were as follows for continuing operations: Three months ended March 31, 2024 2023 Canada $ 18,871 $ 14,434 Israel 6,417 5,061 Net revenue $ 25,288 $ 19,495 (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 $952,446 and $966,442 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 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 March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $15 and $3, respectively, in expected credit losses that have been recognized on receivables from contracts with customers. As of March 31, 2024, the Company assessed that there is a concentration of credit risk, as 40% of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from two customers with an established credit history with the Company. As of December 31, 2023, 37% 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 revenue. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $21,866 from three major customers, together accounting for 62% of the Company’s total net revenues before excise taxes. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $15,168 from two major customers, together accounting for 56% of the Company’s total net revenues before excise taxes. (g) New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 enhances reportable segment disclosures by requiring disclosures such as significant segment expenses, information on the CODM and disclosures for entities with a single reportable segment. Additionally, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, and contain other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and we expect to adopt ASU 2023-07 retrospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-07 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 enhances the existing income tax disclosures to provide additional information to better assess how an entity’s operations, related tax risks and tax planning, and operational opportunities affect its tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and we expect to adopt ASU 2023-09 prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. (h) Adoption of new accounting pronouncements On January 1, 2024, the Company adopted ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2022-03”). ASU 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. The adoption of ASU 2022-03 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements. With respect to the adoption of ASU 2022-03, see Note 4 “Investments” for discussion of the contractual restrictions related to the PharmaCann Option (as defined below). |

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations In the second quarter of 2023, the Company exited its then-existing U.S. hemp-derived cannabinoid product operations. Accordingly, the net loss of the U.S. operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are reported separately as loss from discontinued operations on the condensed consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. There was no activity in discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The following table presents the major components comprising loss from discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023: Three months ended March 31, 2023 Net revenue $ 649 Cost of sales 1,196 Gross profit (547) Operating expenses Sales and marketing 131 Research and development 2 General and administrative 523 Share-based compensation 16 Depreciation and amortization 8 Total operating expenses 680 Interest income 5 Total other income (loss) 5 Loss before income taxes (1,222) Income tax expense (benefit) — Net loss from discontinued operations $ (1,222) The following tables present the Company’s discontinued operations revenue by major product category: Three months ended March 31, 2023 Cannabis extracts 649 Net revenue $ 649 The Company had no assets or liabilities presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets related to its discontinued operations as of both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, there were no purchases of property plant and equipment related to discontinued operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, purchases of property plant and equipment related to discontinued operations were $67. |

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Investments | Investments (a) Equity method investments, net A reconciliation of the carrying amount of the investments in equity method investees, net is as follows: Ownership interest As of March 31, 2024 As of December 31, 2023 Cronos Growing Company Inc. (“Cronos GrowCo”) 50% $ 20,521 $ 19,488 $ 20,521 $ 19,488 The following is a summary of the Company’s share of net income (losses) from equity investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting: For the three months ended March 31, 2024 2023 Cronos GrowCo $ 1,448 $ (496) $ 1,448 $ (496) (b) Other investments Other investments consist of investments in common shares and options of two companies in the cannabis industry. PharmaCann Option On June 14, 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, at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share, representing approximately 10.5% of PharmaCann’s issued and outstanding capital stock on a fully diluted basis as of the date of the PharmaCann Option, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $110,392. The PharmaCann Option is classified as an investment in an equity security without a readily determinable fair value. The Company measures the PharmaCann Option at cost less accumulated impairment charges, if any, and subsequently adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, based on updated information provided by PharmaCann in the first quarter, the Company’s ownership percentage in PharmaCann on a fully diluted basis was approximately 6.3% and 6.6%, respectively. The decrease in the Company’s ownership percentage since acquisition does not materially affect the Company’s rights under the PharmaCann Option. The PharmaCann Option is measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and is a level 3 asset. See Note 10 “Fair Value Measurements” for more information on the fair value hierarchy. The PharmaCann Option is reported as Other investments on the consolidated balance sheet for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company identified adverse forecast changes in the financial performance of PharmaCann as an indicator of impairment related to the PharmaCann Option and conducted an analysis comparing the PharmaCann Option’s carrying amount to its estimated fair value. The fair value was estimated using the market approach. Under the market approach, the key assumptions are the selected multiples and the discount for lack of marketability. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $12,734 in the first quarter of 2024 as the difference between the carrying amount of the PharmaCann Option and its estimated fair value, in the condensed consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The Company may sell, transfer or dispose of the PharmaCann Option without PharmaCann’s prior written consent, subject to the following conditions: (i) any transferee of any part of the PharmaCann Option must comply with and commit to comply with all regulations issued by a governmental entity applicable to such transferee in all material respects; (ii) any transferee of any part of the PharmaCann Option must agree to be bound by the terms of the Option Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 14, 2021 (the “Option Purchase Agreement”), as a “Purchaser” thereunder; (iii) the Company may not split and/or transfer the PharmaCann Option, in the aggregate, to more than four persons (with certain exceptions); (iv) no transferee may be a Prohibited Assignee (as defined in the Option Purchase Agreement); and (v) subject to certain exceptions, in the event that the Company (or a Permitted Transferee of the whole PharmaCann Option) transfers less than all of the PharmaCann Option to any third party that is not a Permitted Transferee, certain governance and information rights terminate immediately, unless waived by the PharmaCann board of directors in its sole and absolute discretion. Additionally, in the event of an initial underwritten public offering of PharmaCann’s common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement, to the extent that holders of PharmaCann common stock are subject to any lock-up period imposed by the underwriter in connection therewith, the Company will, if applicable, execute a customary lock-up agreement on the same material terms and conditions as the other holders of common stock are subject to or as otherwise agreed between PharmaCann and the Company, subject to certain conditions with respect to the duration of the lock-up period. Vitura Health Limited (formerly known as Cronos Australia) The Company owns approximately 10% of the outstanding common shares of Vitura Health Limited (“Vitura”). 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 loss and comprehensive loss.

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 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 “Peace Naturals Campus”). On February 27, 2023, the Board approved revisions to the Realignment, which are expected to result in the Company maintaining select components of its operations at the Peace Naturals Campus, namely distribution warehousing, certain research and development activities and manufacturing of certain of the Company’s products, while seeking to sell and lease back all or some of the Peace Naturals Campus or to lease certain portions of the Peace Naturals Campus to third parties. In the third quarter of 2023, the Board approved revisions to the Realignment to wind-down operations at its Winnipeg, Manitoba facility (“Cronos Fermentation”), list the Cronos Fermentation facility for sale, and implement additional organization-wide cost reductions as the Company continues its Realignment initiatives. The Realignment initiatives were intended to position the Company to drive profitable and sustainable growth over time. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company ceased operations at Cronos Fermentation and performed an assessment under ASC 360 of the recoverability of the carrying value of the Cronos Fermentation assets, and determined the carrying value of the assets was not fully recoverable. The fair value was estimated using a combination of the market and income approaches. As a result of this analysis, an impairment loss on long-lived assets of $1,631 was recorded to the condensed consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss in the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, the assets of Cronos Fermentation met the held-for-sale criteria and were reclassified to assets held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and the assets were valued at their fair value less costs to sell. A $445 loss for estimated costs to sell was recorded as a result of the classification of the Cronos Fermentation assets as held for sale. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred $83 of restructuring costs in its continuing operations in connection with the Realignment. Charges related thereto include employee-related costs such as severance and other termination benefits, as well as other related costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized no restructuring costs in continuing operations in connection with the Realignment. The following table summarizes the Company’s restructuring activity for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023: Accrual as of January 1, 2024 Expenses Payments/Write-offs Accrual as of March 31, 2024 Employee Termination Benefits $ 150 $ 62 $ (174) $ 38 Other Restructuring Costs — 21 (21) — Total $ 150 $ 83 $ (195) $ 38 Accrual as of January 1, 2023 Expenses Payments/Write-offs Accrual as of March 31, 2023 Employee Termination Benefits $ 403 $ — $ (295) $ 108 Other Restructuring Costs 21 — (21) — Total $ 424 $ — $ (316) $ 108 |

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 former Chief Financial Officer. The court 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 controls were incorrect based on the Company’s disclosures relating to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors’ 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. The defendants moved to dismiss on February 8, 2021. On November 17, 2023, the court entered an order granting the motion and dismissed the case with prejudice. On December 1, 2023, the shareholder plaintiffs sought reconsideration of the dismissal, requesting that the court instead dismiss the action without prejudice and permit the plaintiffs to seek leave to further amend the complaint. The reconsideration motion is pending. 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 named (i) the Company, (ii) its Chief Executive Officer, (iii) 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 alleged breaches of the Ontario Securities Act, oppression under the Ontario Business Corporations Act and common law misrepresentation. The Amended Statement of Claim generally alleged that certain of the Company’s prior public statements about revenues and internal controls were misrepresentations based on the Company’s March 2, 2020 disclosure that the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors 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 did 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. On April 11, 2023, the plaintiff filed a Fresh as Amended Statement of Claim, which reflected the dismissal of the defendants for which an appeal was not sought, the removal of the claims for oppression under the Ontario Business Corporations Act and common law misrepresentation, as well as shortening the proposed class period. On October 10, 2023, the Superior Court certified the action on behalf of a class of persons or entities who acquired shares in the secondary market, including on the TSX and Nasdaq, during the period from May 9, 2019 to March 30, 2020, other than certain excluded persons. (ii) Regulatory reviews relating to restatements On October 24, 2022, the Company announced regulatory settlements as follows: 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, as amended (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 agreed to settle with the SEC, without admitting or denying the allegations described in the Settlement Order. The Settlement Order fully and finally disposed 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. As a result of the Settlement Order, the Company (i) lost its status as a well-known seasoned issuer for a period of three years, (ii) is 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) is 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 Ontario Securities Commission (the “OSC”), resolving the Restatements. Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, which fully and finally disposed 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 Ontario Securities Act to file interim financial reports in the manner set out therein and had acted in a manner contrary to the public interest. (iii) Litigation and regulatory inquiries relating to marketing, distribution, import and sale of products On April 17, 2023, a group of plaintiffs led by the Green Leaf (Ale Yarok) political party filed a Statement of Claim and Request for Approval of a Class Action on behalf of a purported class of Israeli cannabis consumers in the District Court of Tel Aviv, Israel, against 26 cannabis-related parties, including three Cronos Israel entities. The Statement of Claim alleges that the defendants violated certain laws relating to the marketing of medical cannabis products, including marketing to unlicensed cannabis consumers. The lawsuit seeks a total of ILS 420 million. The Cronos Israel defendants moved to dismiss the action on August 13, 2023. On January 18, 2024, the Company was notified that the Trade Levies Commissioner of the Israel Ministry of Economy and Industry initiated a public investigation of alleged dumping of medical cannabis imports from Canada into Israel. The Company is responding to requests for information from the Ministry. The Company cannot predict the outcome of the investigation. We expect litigation and regulatory proceedings relating to the marketing, distribution, import and sale of our products to increase. |

(“Future Farmco”) for the sale and leaseback of the Peace Naturals Campus. Pursuant to the terms of the Sale Agreement, Future Farmco has agreed to acquire the Peace Naturals Campus for an aggregate purchase price of C$23 million cash, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein. At closing, the parties expect to enter into a lease agreement with respect to portions of the Peace Naturals Campus.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of presentation | 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, 2024 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, 2023 (the “Annual Report”). Certain prior period 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. |
Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations In the second quarter of 2023, the Company exited its U.S. hemp-derived cannabinoid product operations. The exit of the U.S. operations represented a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and as such, qualifies for reporting as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to reflect the discontinued operations classification of the U.S. operations. For more information, see Note 2 “ Discontinued Operations ”. |
Segment information | 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. Prior to the second quarter of 2023, the Company reported results for two reportable segments, the U.S. and Rest of World. In the second quarter of 2023, as a result of the Company’s exit of its then-existing U.S. operations, the Company 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 . All prior period segment disclosure information has been reclassified to conform to the current reporting structure in this Form 10-Q. These reclassifications had no effect on our consolidated financial statements in any period presented. |
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 and loans receivable. The Company’s maximum exposure to this risk is equal to the carrying amount of these financial assets, which amounted to $952,446 and $966,442 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. |
New accounting pronouncement not yet adopted and Adoption of new accounting pronouncements | New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 enhances reportable segment disclosures by requiring disclosures such as significant segment expenses, information on the CODM and disclosures for entities with a single reportable segment. Additionally, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, and contain other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and we expect to adopt ASU 2023-07 retrospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-07 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 enhances the existing income tax disclosures to provide additional information to better assess how an entity’s operations, related tax risks and tax planning, and operational opportunities affect its tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and we expect to adopt ASU 2023-09 prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. (h) Adoption of new accounting pronouncements On January 1, 2024, the Company adopted ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2022-03”). ASU 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. The adoption of ASU 2022-03 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements. With respect to the adoption of ASU 2022-03, see Note 4 “Investments” for discussion of the contractual restrictions related to the PharmaCann Option (as defined below). |
