1. Background, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)Background
Cronos Group Inc. (“Cronos” or the “Company”) is incorporated in the province of British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) with principal executive offices at 4491 Concession Rd 12, Stayner, Ontario, L0M 1S0. The Company’s common shares are 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 and six months ended June 30, 2025 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, 2024 (the “Annual Report”).
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations and ending shareholders’ equity.
(c)Segment information
Segment reporting is prepared on the same basis that the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) manages the business, makes operating decisions and assesses the Company’s performance. The Company has determined that it has one operating segment and therefore one reportable segment, which is comprised of operations in Canada and Israel and is involved in the cultivation, manufacture, and marketing of cannabis and cannabis-derived products for the medical and adult-use markets.
(d)Revenue recognition
The following tables present the Company’s revenue by major product category:
| Three months ended June 30, | |||||||||||

| Cannabis flower | $ | $ | |||||||||

| Canada | $ | $ | |||||||||
| Israel | |||||||||||
| Other countries | |||||||||||
| Net revenue | $ | $ | |||||||||
(e)Short-term Investments
Short-term investments are classified as held-to-maturity and recorded at cost. Interest earned on short-term investments is recorded in other receivables on the consolidated balance sheets and interest income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive income (loss). Cash inflows and outflows related to the purchase and maturity of short-term investments are classified as investing activities in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows. As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s short-term investments of $40,000 were comprised of Guaranteed Investment Certificates held in Canada.
(f)Concentration of risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities, primarily accounts receivable and other receivables, and its investing activities, including cash held with banks and financial institutions, short-term investments and loans receivable. The Company’s maximum exposure to this risk is equal to the carrying amount of these financial assets, which amounted to $887,559 and $904,101 as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company assessed that there is a concentration of credit risk, as 33 % of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from two customers with an established credit history with the Company. As of December 31, 2024, 27 % of the Company’s accounts receivable were due from one customer with an established credit history with the Company.
The Company sells products to a limited number of major customers. Major customers are defined as customers that each individually accounted for greater than 10% of the Company’s net revenue before excise taxes. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $18,112 from two major customers, together accounting for 41 % of the Company’s total net revenue before excise taxes. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $19,941 from two major customers, together accounting for 52 % of the Company’s total net revenue before excise taxes. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $35,856 from two major customers, together accounting for 42 % of the Company’s total net revenue before excise taxes. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company earned a total net revenue before excise taxes of $45,482 from three major customers, together accounting for 62 % of the Company’s total net revenue before excise taxes.

(g)New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
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, 2024, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, 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.
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 adds an obligation under ASC 220-40 to require a footnote disclosure about specific expenses by requiring public business entities to disaggregate, in a tabular presentation, each relevant expense caption on the face of the income statement that includes any of the following natural expenses: (1) purchases of inventory, (2) employee compensation, (3) depreciation, (4) intangible asset amortization, and (5) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil and gas-producing activities or other types of depletion expenses. The tabular disclosure would also include certain other expenses, when applicable. ASU 2024-03 does not change or remove existing expense disclosure requirements; however, it may affect where that information appears in the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and applicable entities are required to adopt ASU 2024-03 prospectively; however, companies are permitted to apply the amendments in ASU 2024-03 retrospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2024-03 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In January 2025, the effective date was further clarified with the issuance of ASU 2025-01, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). No guidance was changed with ASU 2025-01, but the issuance simply ensures that all public business entities have a clear and consistent timeline for implementing the enhanced expense disaggregation disclosures.
2. Business Combination
Cronos Growing Company Inc. (“Cronos GrowCo”) was formed under the Canada Business Corporations Act on June 14, 2018, with the objective of cultivating and commercializing cannabis and cannabis products. Cronos GrowCo is licensed to sell certain cannabis products to other license holders in the wholesale channel, as well as to provincial cannabis control authorities. Cronos GrowCo holds Global GAP and ICANN GAP certifications (equivalent to IMC-GAP) for the export of dried flower to Israel.
In the third quarter of 2024, the Company obtained majority control of the board of directors of Cronos GrowCo, which qualified as a business combination under ASC 805 Accounting for Business Combinations (the “Cronos GrowCo Transaction”). Prior to the Cronos GrowCo Transaction, the Company’s investment in Cronos GrowCo consisted of an investment accounted for under the equity method and loans receivable from Cronos GrowCo. In connection with the Cronos GrowCo Transaction, the Company provided an approximately $51,000 secured non-revolving credit facility to Cronos GrowCo to fund the expansion of Cronos GrowCo’s cultivation and processing facilities (such area, the “Phase 2 Expansion Area”) and entered into a new supply agreement with Cronos GrowCo (the “Cronos GrowCo Supply Agreement”). Pursuant to the Cronos GrowCo Supply Agreement, prior to the commencement of sales from the Phase 2 Expansion Area, the Company and its controlled affiliates (other than Cronos GrowCo) have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase an aggregate total quantity of 80 % of Cronos GrowCo’s production. Thereafter, the Company and its controlled affiliates (other than Cronos GrowCo) will have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase 70 % of Cronos GrowCo’s forecasted production capacity over a given period and 70 % of Cronos GrowCo’s actual production in a given month. Cronos GrowCo’s production is intended to support the majority of the Company’s current and future biomass supply requirements.
As there was no cash consideration paid, the Cronos GrowCo Transaction was valued with reference to the fair value of our preexisting equity method investment of $53,542 , as well as the effective settlement of various preexisting relationships between the Company and Cronos GrowCo. These preexisting relationships are now classified as intercompany transactions and eliminated upon consolidation. As of the date of the Cronos GrowCo Transaction, the fair value of the non-controlling interest in Cronos GrowCo was $53,542 . The Company used the income approach to estimate both the fair value of the Company’s equity method investment in Cronos GrowCo and the fair value of the non-controlling interest in Cronos GrowCo. Under the income approach, significant assumptions used in the discounted cash flow method that required the use of judgment were the discount rate, growth rates and cash flow projections.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company completed the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The final allocation of the purchase price to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was:

The inventory acquired in the Cronos GrowCo Transaction of $15,754 included a step-up to fair value of $5,605 . For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized nil and $517 , respectively, of this inventory step-up into cost of sales on the condensed consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive income (loss). As of June 30, 2025, none of the inventory step-up was remaining in the Company’s inventory on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

(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 June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s ownership percentage in PharmaCann on a fully diluted basis was approximately 0.8 % and 5.8 %, respectively. The decrease in ownership percentage in the six months ended June 30, 2025, was the result of the exercise of convertible notes by PharmaCann shareholders unrelated to Cronos in the first quarter of 2025, and an increase in the amount of shares that can be converted from PharmaCann’s existing convertible notes in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease in the Company’s ownership percentage since acquisition does not materially affect the Company’s rights under the PharmaCann Option. The net book value of the PharmaCann Option was nil
During the first and second quarters of 2024, the Company identified adverse forecast changes in the financial performance of PharmaCann as indicators of impairment related to the PharmaCann Option and conducted analyses comparing the PharmaCann Option’s carrying amount to its estimated fair value. The fair value 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 these analyses, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $12,734 and $12,916 in the first and second quarters of 2024, respectively, 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 income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 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.

Cronos GrowCo Credit Facility
On August 23, 2019, the Company, as lender, and Cronos GrowCo, as borrower, entered into a senior secured credit agreement for an aggregate principal amount of C$100,000 (the “GrowCo Credit Facility”). The GrowCo Credit Facility is secured by substantially all present and after-acquired personal and real property of Cronos GrowCo. In August 2021, the GrowCo Credit Facility was amended to increase the aggregate principal amount available to C$105,000 . For the three months ended June 30, 2024, Cronos GrowCo repaid C$1,667 ($1,216 ) in principal and paid C$1,920 ($1,401 ) in interest related to the GrowCo Credit Facility. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, Cronos GrowCo repaid C$3,333 ($2,447 ) in principal and paid C$3,862 ($2,835 ) in interest related to the GrowCo Credit Facility.
In June 2024, the GrowCo Credit Facility was amended to increase the aggregate principal amount available by C$70,000 by providing a second secured non-revolving credit facility (“Term Loan B”). The funds from Term Loan B have been used to expand Cronos GrowCo’s purpose-built cannabis facility and Term Loan B will mature 10 years after the commencement of sales from the Phase 2 Expansion Area. Principal will be repaid under Term Loan B on a quarterly basis after the commencement of sales from the Phase 2 Expansion Area. Interest on Term Loan B is payable on a quarterly basis until maturity beginning after the first borrowing under Term Loan B. Prior to July 1, 2024, only C$12,000 of the C$70,000 increased principal availability could be drawn, which Cronos GrowCo drew in full on June 20, 2024.
As a result of the Cronos GrowCo Transaction on July 1, 2024, the existing loans receivable under the GrowCo Credit Facility were remeasured at their fair value and effectively settled. See Note 2 “Business Combination” for further information regarding the Cronos GrowCo Transaction.
Mucci Promissory Note
On June 28, 2019, the Company entered into a promissory note receivable agreement (the “Mucci Promissory Note”) for C$16,350 (approximately $12,015 ) with the Cronos GrowCo joint venture partner (“Mucci”). The Mucci Promissory Note is secured by a general security agreement covering all the assets of Mucci. Prior to July 1, 2022, interest accrued on the Mucci Promissory Note was capitalized as part of the principal balance. On September 30, 2022, the Mucci Promissory Note was amended and restated to increase the interest rate from 3.95 % to the Canadian Prime Rate plus 1.25 %, change the interest payments from quarterly to annual, and defer Mucci’s initial cash interest payment from September 30, 2022 to July 1, 2023. On June 20, 2024, the Mucci Promissory Note was amended and restated. As a result, interest accrued on the Mucci Promissory Note between July 1, 2023 and July 1, 2024 was capitalized as part of the principal balance. As of July 1, 2024, interest is accrued and to be paid in cash beginning on July 1, 2025. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, Mucci made principal repayments of $2,855 1,003 no
Cannasoul Collaboration Loan
The Company holds a variable interest in Cannasoul Lab Services Ltd. (“CLS”). CLS is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cannasoul Analytics Ltd., which is in the process of establishing a commercial cannabis analytical testing laboratory (the “Cannasoul Laboratory”) located on the premises of Cronos Israel (the “Cannasoul Collaboration”). Cronos Israel agreed to advance up to ILS 8,297 ($2,463 ) by a non-recourse loan (the “Cannasoul Collaboration Loan”) to CLS over a period of two years from April 1, 2020 for the capital and operating expenditures of the Cannasoul Laboratory. The Cannasoul Collaboration Loan bears interest at 3.5 % annually. Cronos Israel will receive 70 % of the profits of the Cannasoul Laboratory until such time as it has recovered 150 % of the amounts advanced to CLS, after which time it will receive 50 % of the Cannasoul Laboratory profits. As a result, the Company is exposed to economic variability from CLS’s performance. The Company does not consolidate CLS as it does not have the power to

8. Restructuring
In the first quarter of 2022, the Company initiated a strategic plan to realign the business around its brands, centralize functions and evaluate the Company’s supply chain (the “Realignment”). As part of the Realignment, on February 28, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved plans to leverage the Company’s strategic partnerships to improve supply chain efficiencies and reduce manufacturing overhead by exiting its production facility in Stayner, Ontario, Canada (the “Peace Naturals Campus”). On February 27, 2023, the Board approved revisions to the Realignment, under which the Company is 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. In the third quarter of 2023, the Board approved revisions to the Realignment to wind-down operations at Cronos Fermentation, list the Cronos Fermentation Facility for sale, and implement additional organization-wide cost reductions as the Company continues its Realignment initiatives. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company continued its Realignment initiatives to transform its IT infrastructure and finance departments to drive long-term cost efficiencies, improve cross-functional collaboration, and support global scalability. These actions include leadership transitions, consolidation of certain roles, and assessment of, and investment in, critical IT infrastructure. The Realignment initiatives are intended to position the Company to drive profitable and sustainable growth over time.
On November 26, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with Future Farmco Canada Inc. for the sale and leaseback of the Peace Naturals Campus. This agreement was subsequently terminated pursuant to its terms during the second quarter of 2024. The Company plans to continue and expand operations at the Peace Naturals Campus.
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company ceased operations at Cronos Fermentation, performed an assessment under ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment 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. In addition, the Cronos Fermentation assets were classified as held-for-sale in the first quarter of 2024 and continue to be classified as held-for-sale as of June 30, 2025. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company revised its listing price and reassessed the fair value of the Cronos Fermentation assets, which resulted in the recognition of a loss on held-for-sale assets of $2,501
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred $768 and $1,323 , respectively, in restructuring costs in connection with the Realignment. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred $547 and $630 of restructuring costs in connection with the Realignment. Charges related thereto include employee-related costs such as severance and other termination benefits, as well as IT infrastructure and finance transformation costs associated with the Realignment.

10. Share Repurchase Program
On May 7, 2025, the Board authorized a share repurchase program of up to $50,000 . The repurchase program commenced on May 14, 2025 and is expected to terminate on May 13, 2026, unless earlier terminated. Repurchases under the program may be made from time to time, either through open market purchases at then-prevailing market prices through the facilities of the Nasdaq or other U.S. published markets, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Open market repurchases will not exceed 19,270,951 common shares, being 5 % of the outstanding common shares as of May 7, 2025. The timing and amount of repurchases are subject to market conditions, compliance with applicable laws and regulations and any other factors management of the Company may deem relevant. The program does not obligate Cronos to acquire any specific dollar amount or number of common shares and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 1,874,951 3,612
11. Commitments and Contingencies
(a)Commitments
There have been no material changes in the information regarding commitments as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report.
(b)Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business and in connection with its marketing, distribution and sale of its products. Many of these legal proceedings are in the early stages of litigation and seek damages that are unspecified or not quantified. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe these legal proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition but could be material to its results of operations for a quarterly period depending, in part, on its results for that quarter.

(i)Class action complaints relating to restatement of 2019 interim financial statements
On March 11 and 12, 2020, two alleged shareholders of the Company separately filed two putative class action complaints in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against the Company and its Chief Executive Officer and 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 revenue and internal controls were incorrect based on the Company’s disclosures relating to the Audit Committee of the Board’s review of the appropriateness of revenue recognized in connection with certain bulk resin purchases and sales of products through the wholesale channel. The consolidated amended complaint does not quantify a damage request. 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. On December 3, 2024, the Court issued an opinion and order granting the plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration, and on January 10, 2025, the plaintiffs filed a second amended class action complaint. The defendants are moving to dismiss the second amended class action complaint. On May 30, 2025, the parties jointly informed the court that they had reached an agreement-in-principle to settle the action and requested that the Court stay all deadlines in the action, which the Court ordered on June 3, 2025. The proposed settlement remains subject to preliminary and final approval by the court and certain other conditions not within the Company’s control.
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 revenue and internal controls were misrepresentations based on the Company’s March 2, 2020 disclosure that the Audit Committee of the Board was conducting a review of the appropriateness of revenue recognized in connection with certain bulk resin purchases and sales of products through the wholesale channel, and the Company’s subsequent restatement. The Amended Statement of Claim 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 of our 2019 and 2021 interim financial statements (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
22

| Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) | |||||
| (In thousands of U.S. dollars, except share amounts) | |||||
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. The court granted the motion (and similar motions filed by other defendants) on May 16, 2024, dismissing the plaintiffs’ petition for class certification without prejudice and their individual claims with prejudice, and ordering the plaintiffs to pay ILS 10 thousand to each of the defendants for costs. On July 14, 2024, the plaintiffs appealed to the Supreme Court of Israel seeking to overturn both the dismissal of plaintiffs’ individual claims and the award of costs. The appeal is pending.
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. On July 9, 2024, the Commissioner announced a preliminary determination proposing to impose an anti-dumping duty on Canadian licensed producers. Under the proposal, the Company would have been subject to a proposed duty of 369%. The Commissioner determined not to impose a provisional duty at that time pending the conclusion of the Ministry’s investigation. The Company responded to requests for information from the Ministry. On November 10, 2024, the Trade Levies Commissioner published final findings under which the Company would be subject to a proposed duty of 175%. The Commissioner’s findings were then evaluated by an ad hoc advisory committee. On December 12, 2024, the Minister of Economy announced a conflict of interest and recused himself from the evaluation of whether to impose a duty. On April 10, 2025, notwithstanding the previous recusal, the Minister of Economy approved a duty of up to 165% on imports of cannabis from Canada, including the Company’s imports. On April 25, 2025, the Minister of Finance released a memorandum opposing the imposition of the duty, which acted as a veto of the Minister of Economy’s approval. On April 29, 2025, the Minister of Economy released a memorandum stating that notwithstanding the veto, he intends to proceed with the process of imposing the duty. On July 3, 2025, the Ministry of Justice issued a memorandum sustaining the Minister of Finance’s veto. A provisional duty is not being imposed at this time. The Company cannot predict further proceedings or determinations of the Ministers of Economy or Finance, or the Finance Committee of the Knesset and cannot predict whether a duty will ultimately be imposed on its products.
On July 25, 2024, a group of cannabis cultivators filed an administrative petition in the District Court of Jerusalem, Israel, against the Trade Levies Commissioner and certain Israeli and Canadian businesses. The administrative petition sought a court order requiring the Trade Levies Commissioner to impose a temporary duty on cannabis imported from Canada during the pendency of the investigation until the date on which a final determination is made by the Ministry of Economy whether to impose a duty. On September 9, 2024, the Company filed a motion to join the litigation; the court granted the Company’s motion on September 23, 2024. On February 6, 2025, the court dismissed the administrative petition. On June 12, 2025, a group of cannabis cultivators initiated a second administrative proceeding against the government and certain importers, including the Company’s subsidiaries in Israel, asking the court to declare the Minister of Finance’s veto void and order the Minister of Economy to impose an anti-dumping duty. On June 26, 2025, the cultivators moved the court for an interim injunction, which the court denied on July 13, 2025. As of the date of this filing, the petition for a final injunction is pending before the court.
We expect litigation and regulatory proceedings relating to the marketing, distribution, import and sale of our products to increase.

12. Segment Information
Segment reporting is prepared on the same basis that the CODM manages the business, makes operating decisions and assesses the Company’s performance. The CODM is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Company operates as a single segment with the purpose of providing high-quality cannabis products to adult-use, wholesale and medical market customers globally. The consolidated results are regularly reviewed by the CODM to assess the performance of the Company’s single segment operations and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources. The CODM reviews adjusted earnings (loss) before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) as the measure of segment profit or loss to evaluate performance of and allocate resources for its reportable segment. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and non-cash items and items that do not reflect management’s assessment of ongoing business performance. The CODM believes Adjusted EBITDA provides the most useful insight into underlying business trends and results and provides a more meaningful comparison of period-over-period results. In addition, certain significant expenses are regularly reviewed by the CODM and considered for business decisions and allocation of resources; these significant expenses include: sales and marketing, research and development, general and administrative, depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation expense, which are presented within operating expenses on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive income (loss). Furthermore, the CODM regularly reviews total cash and short-term investments to aid in capital allocation decisions.

(i)In computing diluted loss per share, incremental common shares are not considered in periods in which a net loss is reported as the inclusion of the common share equivalents would be anti-dilutive.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, total securities of 15,812,953 and 28,769,758 , respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted shares outstanding because the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, total securities of 19,045,720 and 29,428,093 , respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted shares outstanding because the effect would be anti-dilutive.
14. Fair Value Measurements
The Company complies with ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. In general, fair values are determined by:
•Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves.
•Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.

Business Overview
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®.
Strategy
Cronos seeks to create value for shareholders by focusing on four core strategic priorities:
•growing a portfolio of iconic brands that responsibly elevate the consumer experience;
•developing a diversified global sales and distribution network;
•establishing an efficient global supply chain; and
•creating and monetizing disruptive intellectual property.
Business Segment
Cronos reports through one consolidated segment, which includes operations in both Canada and Israel. In Canada, Cronos operates one wholly owned license holder under the Cannabis Act (Canada) (the “Cannabis Act”), Peace Naturals Project Inc. (“Peace Naturals”), which has production facilities near Stayner, Ontario (the “Peace Naturals Campus”). On July 1, 2024, the Company obtained majority control of the board of directors of Cronos GrowCo, a license holder under the Cannabis Act, which qualified as a business combination under ASC 805. As a result, the Company now consolidates the results of operations of Cronos GrowCo in its consolidated financial statements. Cronos maintains its 50% equity interest in Cronos GrowCo. In Israel, the Company operates under the IMC-GAP, IMC-GMP and IMC-GDP certifications required for the cultivation, production, distribution and marketing of medical cannabis products in Israel.
35
Recent Developments
Cronos GrowCo Expansion
The Phase 2 Expansion Area is now complete and we expect sales from the expansion in Fall 2025. The Company believes this additional supply will fuel growth internationally and within the domestic Canadian market.
Proposed Anti-Dumping Duty in Israel
On July 3, 2025, the Israel Ministry of Justice announced that it had concluded that the Minister of Finance’s veto of the proposed anti-dumping duty was valid. The Minister of Economy had sought to impose an anti-dumping duty of 165% on the Company’s medical cannabis imports into Israel, which the Minister of Finance subsequently vetoed. This matter stems from an investigation launched in January 2024 into allegations of dumping of Canadian medical cannabis into Israel. The Company strongly refuted the allegations and is pleased with the decision to veto the proposed anti-dumping duty. Cronos will continue to advocate for a fair and equitable market structure that benefits Israel’s medical cannabis patients.
Agreement with High Tide Inc.
On July 16, 2025, the Company, as lender, and High Tide Inc. (“High Tide”), as borrower, entered into a loan agreement for junior secured convertible debt with a principal amount of C$30,000 and an original issue discount of 16% (the “Junior Secured Loan”). The Junior Secured Loan bears interest at 4% per annum, payable in cash quarterly, and provides for conversion of the debt into common shares of High Tide at a price of C$4.20 per common share. The Junior Secured Loan is convertible only upon the agreement of both parties. The Junior Secured Loan has a term of five years and may be repaid early with no penalty. Additionally, the Company received a common share purchase warrant (the “Warrant”), which is exercisable into up to 3,836,317 common shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of High Tide at an exercise price of C$3.91 per Warrant Share.

(i)Gross margin is defined as gross profit divided by net revenue.
Net revenue
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we reported consolidated net revenue of $33.5 million, representing an increase of $5.7 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we reported consolidated net revenue of $65.7 million, representing an increase of $12.7 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the increase was primarily due to higher cannabis flower sales in Israel and other countries, which carry no excise taxes, the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo, and higher cannabis extract sales in the Canadian market. Due to the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo’s results of operations in our financial statements beginning July 1, 2024, Cronos GrowCo contributed $2.2 million and $5.1 million, respectively, of cannabis flower sales in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. No such sales were recognized for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Cost of sales
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we reported consolidated cost of sales of $18.9 million, representing a decrease of $2.2 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we reported consolidated cost of sales of $37.4 million, representing a decrease of $4.5 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the decrease was primarily due to the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo and production efficiencies, partially offset by higher sales volumes. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized $0.5 million of inventory step-up from the Cronos GrowCo Transaction into cost of sales. No such costs were recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2025 or the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Inventory write-down
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we reported inventory write-downs of $0.1 million related to the destruction of certain inventory. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we reported inventory write-downs of $0.4 million related to the destruction of certain inventory.
Gross profit
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we reported gross profit of $14.5 million, representing an increase of $8.2 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we reported gross profit of $28.2 million, representing an increase of $17.5 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the increase was primarily due to the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo, higher average sales prices driven primarily by a mix shift to Israel and other countries, higher sales volumes, and production efficiencies. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, gross profit was reduced by $0.5 million as a result of the impact of the inventory step-up from the Cronos GrowCo Transaction that was recorded into cost of sales. No such costs were recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2025 or the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

Sales and marketing
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, sales and marketing expenses were $5.3 million, representing an increase of $1.0 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, sales and marketing expenses were $9.9 million, representing an increase of $0.3 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the increase was primarily due to higher marketing expenses, partially offset by lower salaries and benefits.
Research and development
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, research and development expenses were flat at $0.9 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, research and development expenses were $1.7 million, representing a decrease of $0.2 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024.
General and administrative
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, general and administrative expenses were $10.5 million, representing a decrease of $2.2 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, general and administrative expenses were $19.8 million, representing a decrease of $1.8 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the decrease was primarily due to lower salaries and benefits and higher expected credit loss allowance on loans receivable recorded in the prior period, partially offset by the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the impact of the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo increased general and administrative expenses by $0.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively. No such costs were recorded in the three or six months ended June 30, 2024.
Restructuring costs
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, restructuring costs were $0.8 million, representing an increase of $0.2 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, restructuring costs were $1.3 million, representing an increase of $0.7 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For further information, see Note 8 “Restructuring” to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Share-based compensation
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, share-based compensation expense was $1.4 million, representing a decrease of $0.9 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, share-based compensation expense was $3.5 million, representing a decrease of $0.8 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the decrease was primarily due to lower amounts of share-based compensation awards outstanding.
Depreciation and amortization
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, depreciation and amortization expenses were $0.9 million, representing a decrease of $0.1 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, depreciation and amortization expenses were $1.4 million, representing a decrease of $0.8 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For the six month comparative period, the decrease was primarily due to lower amortization on intangible assets.
38
Impairment loss on long-lived assets
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, impairment loss on long-lived assets was $2.0 million and was primarily due to the cessation of operations at Cronos Fermentation during the first quarter of 2024. There were no such impairment losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, or the three months ended June 30, 2024. For further information, see Note 8 “Restructuring” to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

(i)“N/M” is defined as not meaningful.
Interest income, net
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, interest income, net was $9.0 million, representing a decrease of $4.5 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, interest income, net was $18.7 million, representing a decrease of $9.0 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the decrease in net interest income was primarily due to lower interest rates in the current period and the absence of income recognized on the Cronos GrowCo loan receivable, which is eliminated in consolidation, effective from and after July 1, 2024.
Share of income from equity method investments
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we had no income from equity method investments, compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we had no income from equity method investments, compared to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. As a result of the Cronos GrowCo Transaction on July 1, 2024, we now consolidate Cronos GrowCo and no longer account for our investment in Cronos GrowCo as an equity method investment. For further information, see Note 4 “Investments” to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Loss on revaluation of financial instruments
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the loss on revaluation of financial instruments was $0.6 million, representing an improvement of $3.0 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the loss on revaluation of financial instruments was $0.6 million, representing an improvement of $5.7 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the change was primarily related to the change in fair value of our investment in Vitura. For further information, see Note 4 “Investments” to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Impairment loss on other investments
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized $12.9 million and $25.7 million, respectively, of impairment loss on other investments, driven by impairment charges recorded on our PharmaCann Option for the difference between its estimated fair value and its carrying amount. There was no such impairment loss on other investments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. For further information, see Note 4 “Investments” to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
39
Foreign currency gain (loss)
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, foreign currency loss was $39.5 million, representing a deterioration of $46.1 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, foreign currency loss was $38.0 million, representing a deterioration of $57.8 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the change was primarily due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar compared to the Canadian dollar impacting the revaluation of certain foreign currency-denominated cash equivalents and short-term investments held in Canada.
Loss on held-for-sale assets
For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized a loss on held-for-sale assets of $2.5 million, relating to a decrease in the fair value of the Cronos Fermentation assets. There were no such losses on held-for-sale assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. For further information, see Note 8 “Restructuring” to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Other, net
Other, net primarily includes gains and losses on the disposal of assets.
Income tax benefit
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, income tax benefit was $0.5 million, compared to a benefit of $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, income tax benefit was $1.0 million, compared to a benefit of $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the decrease in benefit was mainly driven by deferred tax expense that was recorded in connection with the utilization of the loss carryforward balances.
Net loss
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, net loss was $38.5 million, compared to a net loss of $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net loss was $30.8 million, compared to a net loss of $11.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. For both the three and six month comparative periods, the higher net loss was primarily due to an unrealized foreign exchange loss on our U.S. dollar-denominated cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments held in Canada, driven by the Canadian dollar strengthening against the U.S. dollar, partially offset by higher gross profit and lower operating expenses.
Non-GAAP Measures
Cronos reports its financial results in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). This Quarterly Report refers to measures not recognized under U.S. GAAP (“non-GAAP measures”). These non-GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these non-GAAP measures are provided as a supplement to corresponding U.S. GAAP measures to provide additional information regarding the results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All non-GAAP measures presented in this Quarterly Report are reconciled to their closest reported U.S. GAAP measure. Reconciliations of historical adjusted financial measures to corresponding U.S. GAAP measures are provided below.
Adjusted EBITDA
Management reviews Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, which excludes non-cash items and items that do not reflect management’s assessment of ongoing business performance. Management defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization adjusted for: share of (income) loss from equity method investments; impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets; impairment loss on long-lived assets; (gain) loss on revaluation of derivative liabilities; (gain) loss on revaluation of financial instruments; gain on revaluation of loan receivable; gain on revaluation of equity method investment; transaction costs related to strategic projects; loss on held-for-sale assets; impairment loss on other investments; foreign currency (gain) loss; other, net; restructuring costs; share-based compensation; costs related to the Israel Ministry of Economy and Industry dumping inquiry; purchase accounting adjustment-related inventory step-up adjustments recorded through cost of sales; and financial statement review costs related to the restatements of our 2019 and 2021 interim financial statements (the “Restatements”), including legal costs of defending shareholder class action complaints brought against us as a result of the 2019 restatement. Results are reported as total consolidated results, reflecting our reporting structure of one reportable segment.
Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides the most useful insight into underlying business trends and results and provides a more meaningful comparison of period-over-period results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance, including allocating resources and evaluating results relative to employee compensation targets.

(xi)For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, Israel Ministry of Economy and Industry dumping inquiry expense included expenditures relating to the regulatory inquiry about alleged dumping of medical cannabis products in Israel and related litigation and external relations expenses.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 Adjusted EBITDA was $1.7 million, representing an improvement of $12.7 million from three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA was $4.0 million, representing an improvement of $25.7 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. The improvement year-over-year was primarily driven by higher revenue, lower cost of sales due to the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo, as well as by lower operating expenses due to a decline in general and administrative costs.
Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we have presented Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin, non-GAAP measures that exclude the impacts of inventory-related purchase accounting adjustments from the calculations of gross profit and gross margin, which resulted from the Cronos GrowCo Transaction. Results are reported as total consolidated results, reflecting our reporting structure of one reportable segment.
Management believes that Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin provide useful insight into underlying business trends to facilitate comparisons of period-over-period results by removing the impacts of inventory-related purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the Cronos GrowCo Transaction, which reflect a one-time event and do not reflect management’s assessment of ongoing business performance.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Gross profit and Gross margin, each as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, to Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin, respectively, for the periods indicated:

(i)Gross margin is defined as gross profit divided by net revenue.
(ii)Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by net revenue.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 Adjusted Gross Profit was $14.5 million, representing an increase of $8.2 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, Adjusted Gross Profit was $28.8 million, representing an increase of $18.0 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo, higher average sales prices driven primarily by a mix shift to Israel and other countries, higher sales volumes, and production efficiencies.
Constant Currency
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we have presented constant currency adjusted financial measures for net revenue, gross profit, gross profit margin, operating expenses, net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, as well as cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment balances as of June 30, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures. We present constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying operations performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current and comparative prior period income statement results in currencies other than U.S. dollars are converted into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates from the three and six month comparative periods in 2024 rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the respective current period; constant currency current and prior comparative balance sheet information is translated at the prior year-end spot rate rather than the current period spot rate. All growth comparisons relate to the corresponding period in 2024. We have provided this non-GAAP financial information to aid investors in better understanding the performance of our operations. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Quarterly Report should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. See further discussion on foreign currency risk as noted in Item 3 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, net revenue on a constant currency basis was $33.3 million, representing a 20% increase from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net revenue on a constant currency basis was $67.0 million, representing a 26% increase from the six months ended June 30, 2024. On a constant currency basis, net revenue increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher cannabis flower sales in Israel and other countries, which carry no excise taxes, the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo, and higher cannabis extract sales in the Canadian market. On a constant currency basis, the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo as a result of the Cronos GrowCo Transaction contributed $2.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively, of cannabis flower sales in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. No such sales were recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

Gross profit
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, gross profit on a constant currency basis was $14.4 million, representing a 129% increase from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, gross profit on a constant currency basis was $28.6 million, representing a 166% increase from the six months ended June 30, 2024. On a constant currency basis, gross profit increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo, higher average sales prices driven primarily by a mix shift to Israel and other countries, higher sales volumes, and production efficiencies. On a constant currency basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized $0.6 million of inventory step-up from the Cronos GrowCo Transaction in cost of sales. No such costs were recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2025, or the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Operating expenses
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, operating expenses on a constant currency basis were $19.8 million, representing a 9% decrease from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, operating expenses on a constant currency basis were $38.3 million, representing a 9% decrease from the six months ended June 30, 2024. On a constant currency basis, operating expenses decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to lower salaries and benefits, higher expected credit loss allowance on loans receivable recorded in the prior period, and lower share-based compensation expense, partially offset by higher sales and marketing expenses and restructuring costs and the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo. On a constant currency basis, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the consolidation of Cronos GrowCo increased operating expenses by $1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively. No such costs were recorded in the three or six months ended June 30, 2024. Operating expenses on a constant currency basis also declined for the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to lower impairment loss on long-lived assets.
Net loss
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, net loss on a constant currency basis was $39.8 million, representing a higher net loss of $31.0 million from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net loss on a constant currency basis was $32.5 million, representing a higher net loss of $21.2 million from six months ended June 30, 2024. On a constant currency basis, the increased net loss was primarily due to an unrealized foreign exchange loss on our U.S. dollar-denominated cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments held in Canada, driven by the Canadian dollar strengthening against the U.S. dollar, partially offset by higher gross profit and lower operating expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis was $1.6 million, representing a $12.6 million improvement from the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis was $3.9 million, representing a $25.6 million improvement from the six months ended June 30, 2024. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 on a constant currency basis was driven by higher gross profit, as well as by lower operating expenses due to a decline in general and administrative costs.
Cash and cash equivalents & short-term investments
Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments on a constant currency basis decreased 3% to $832.6 million as of June 30, 2025, from $858.8 million as of December 31, 2024. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments on a constant currency basis is primarily due to purchases of property, plant and equipment, repurchases of common stock, dividend payments to non-controlling interests and withholding taxes paid on share-based awards in the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2025, we had $794 million in cash and cash equivalents and $40 million in short-term investments. We believe that the existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to fund the business operations and capital expenditures over the next twelve months. The following table summarizes the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities:

Comparison of cash flows between the six months ended June 30, 2025 and the six months ended June 30, 2024
Operating activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we generated $0.7 million of cash from operating activities as compared to cash used of $0.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing a decrease in cash used of $1.2 million. This change is primarily driven by a $13.1 million increase in net income after adjusting for non-cash items during the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024 and lower interest receivable, partially offset by increases in accounts receivable and inventory and decreases in accrued liabilities.
Investing activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we used $56.3 million of cash in investing activities, compared to $181.0 million of cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing a change of $237.3 million. This change was driven by the purchase of $40.0 million of short-term investments and higher capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the maturity of certain short-term investments, which were reinvested as cash equivalents upon maturity during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Financing activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, cash used in financing activities was $10.6 million, compared to $0.9 million of cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing an increase of $9.7 million. This change is primarily driven by dividends paid to non-controlling interests, repurchases of common stock and an increase in withholding taxes paid on share-based awards during the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to six months ended June 30, 2024.
Share Repurchase Program
On May 7, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized a share repurchase program of up to $50.0 million, but not to exceed 19,270,951 common shares, being 5% of the outstanding common shares as of May 7, 2025. The repurchase program commenced on May 14, 2025 and is expected to terminate on May 13, 2026 unless earlier terminated. In both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased 1,874,951 common shares at a cost of approximately $3.6 million. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has remaining authorization to repurchase up to $46.4 million of additional common shares, not to exceed the remaining 17,396,000 common shares authorized by the Board.
Cash Requirements
The Company’s cash requirements have not changed significantly since the filing of the Annual Report.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report. Our critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed significantly since the filing of the Annual Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company is exposed to certain market risks, including changes from foreign currency exchange rates related to our international operations. Except as updated below, the Company’s market risks have not changed significantly from the market risk disclosed in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report.
Foreign currency risk
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk based on its net assets, liabilities, and revenue denominated in foreign currencies, including Canadian dollars and Israeli new shekels. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency translation gains and losses. Revenue and expenses of all foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the foreign currency exchange rates that approximate the rates in effect during the period when such items are recognized. Appreciating foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar will positively impact operating income and net earnings, while depreciating foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar will have an adverse impact.
A 10% change in the exchange rates for the Canadian dollar would have affected the carrying amount of the net assets by approximately $39.0 million and $40.1 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The corresponding impact would be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. We have not historically engaged in hedging transactions and do not currently contemplate engaging in hedging transactions to mitigate foreign exchange risks. As we continue to recognize gains and losses in foreign currency transactions, depending upon changes in future currency rates, such gains and losses could have a significant, and potentially adverse, effect on the Company’s results of operations.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had foreign currency gain on translation of $60.2 million and $57.1 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 the Company had foreign currency loss on translation of $10.2 million and $32.5 million, respectively.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the value or yield of fixed-income investments may decline if interest rates change. Fluctuations in interest rates may impact the level of income and expense recorded on the cash equivalents and short-term investments, and the market value of all interest-earning assets, other than those which possess a short term to maturity. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we had interest income, net of $9.0 million and $13.5 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we had interest income, net of $18.7 million and $27.7 million, respectively. A 10% decrease in the interest rate in effect on June 30, 2025 would not have a material effect on the fair value of our cash equivalents and short-term investments as the majority of the portfolio had a maturity date of three months or less. A 10% decrease in the interest rate in effect for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 would have an effect of $0.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, on interest income, net earned on our cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as of June 30, 2025. Based on that evaluation, management has concluded that, as of June 30, 2025, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act), that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
