Nature of business

1.	Nature of business

Cronos Group Inc. (“Cronos” or the “Company”), was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) . Cronos is a publicly traded corporation, with its head office located at 720 King Street West, Suite 320, Toronto, Ontario, M5V 2T3. The Company’s common shares are currently listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) and Nasdaq Global Market under the trading symbol “CRON”.

Hortican Inc. (“Hortican”), is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cronos, incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act (“CBCA “).

Cronos operates two wholly owned Licensed Producers, namely Peace Naturals Project Inc. (“Peace Naturals”), which has production facilities near Stayner, Ontario, and Original BC Ltd. (“OGBC”), which has a production facility in Armstrong, British Columbia. Currently, Cronos sells dry cannabis and cannabis oils under its medical cannabis brand, Peace Naturals.

OGBC was incorporated as In the Zone Produce Ltd. (“In the Zone”) under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and was acquired by Hortican on November 5, 2014.

Basis of presentation

2.	Basis of presentation

(a)	Basis of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cronos Group Inc., Hortican Inc., Original BC Ltd., Peace Naturals Project Inc., Indigenous Roots Inc., Cronos Indigenous Holdings Inc., and Cronos Global Holdings Inc. All intercompany transactions, balances, revenues and expenses have been eliminated on consolidation. The Company applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.

(b)	Going concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared with the assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business rather than through a process of forced liquidation. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company had negative cash flows from operations of $5,548 and was dependent on the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing. These circumstances may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and ultimately on the appropriateness of the use of the accounting principles applicable to a going concern. In assessing whether the going concern assumption was appropriate, management took into account all relevant information available, which was at least, but not limited to, the twelve month period subsequent to December 31, 2017. The Company is currently implementing various strategies, including the following:

•

On February 27, 2018, Cronos became listed on the NASDAQ under the trading symbol “CRON”, providing access to a major U.S. exchange to raise financing in support of the Company’s growth and operations;

•

In 2018, the Company announced strategic joint ventures in Canada and Australia, with MedMen Enterprises USA, LLC and NewSouthern Capital Pty Ltd., respectively, which are expected to enable the Company to expand its capacity and establish a low-cost, global footprint;

•

In 2018, the Company has raised an additional $146,000 in gross proceeds through two common share offerings; and

•

The Company has available, $33,696 of additional liquidity available under its construction loan, which includes $5,000 contingent upon an appraisal of OGBC.

The Company believes that based on its previous success in raising capital, and the availability under its construction loan, any shortfall in its cash flows is expected to be mitigated by the Company’s ability to access other sources of liquidity.

(c)	Statement of compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

These consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on April 27, 2018.

(d)	Basis of measurement

Apart from certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value as required under certain IFRSs, the consolidated financial statements have been presented and prepared on the basis of historical cost.

(e)	Functional and presentation currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and all of its subsidiaries.

(f)	Estimates and critical judgments by management

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are reviewed periodically and adjustments are made as appropriate in the year they become known. Items for which actual results may differ materially from these estimates are described in the following section.

(i)	Warrants and options

Warrants and options are initially recognized at fair value, based on the application of the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This pricing model requires management to make various assumptions and estimates which are susceptible to uncertainty, including the volatility of the share price, expected dividend yield, expected term of the warrant or option and expected risk-free interest rate.

(ii)	Useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets are defined as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. Depreciation is dependent upon estimates of useful lives and impairment is dependent upon estimates of recoverable amounts. These are determined through the exercise of judgment, and are dependent upon estimates that take into account factors such as economic and market conditions, frequency of use, anticipated changes in laws, and technological improvements.

(iii)

Impairment of cash-generating units and goodwill

The impairment test for cash generating units (“CGUs”) to which goodwill is allocated is based on the value in use of the CGU, determined in accordance with the expected cash flow approach. The calculation is based on assumptions used to estimate future cash flows, the cash flow growth rate and the discount rate.

(iv)	Fair value of privately held financial assets available-for-sale

The Company’s management considers specific information about the investee companies, trends in general market conditions, and the share performance of similar publicly traded companies when valuing the Company’s privately held investments.

Management considers the following factors to indicate a change in the fair value, or impairment of, a privately held investment, and may adjust the value if:

a. there has been significant subsequent equity financing provided by outside investors at a value which differs from the current recorded value of the investee company, in which case the fair value of the investment is adjusted to equal the value at which that financing took place;

b. there have been significant corporate, political, legal, or operating events affecting the investee company such that management believes they will materially impact the investee company’s prospects and therefore its fair value. In these circumstances, the adjustment to fair value of the investment will be based on management’s judgment;

c. the investee company is placed into receivership or bankruptcy;

d. based on financial information received from the investee company, it is evident that the investee company is unlikely to be able to continue as a going concern;

e. receipt or denial by the investee company of medical marijuana licenses from Health Canada, which allow the investee company to initiate or continue operations; and

f. management changes by the investee company that the Company’s management believes will have an impact on the investee company’s ability to achieve its objectives and build value for shareholders.

(v)	Income taxes

Income taxes and tax exposures recognized in the consolidated financial statements reflect management’s best estimate of the outcome based on facts known at the reporting date. When the Company anticipates a future income tax payment based on its estimates, it recognizes a liability. The difference between the expected amount and the final tax outcome has an impact on current and deferred taxes when the Company becomes aware of this difference.

In addition, when the Company incurs losses for income tax purposes, it assesses the probability of taxable income being available in the future based on its budgeted forecasts. These forecasts are adjusted to take into account certain non-taxable income and expenses and specific rules on the use of unused credits and tax losses. When the forecasts indicate that sufficient future taxable income will be available to deduct the temporary differences, a deferred tax asset is recognized for all deductible temporary differences.

(vii)

Biological assets and inventory

Biological assets, consisting of cannabis plants, are measured at fair value less costs to sell. At the point of harvest, the biological assets are transferred to inventory at fair value less costs to sell. As a result, critical estimates related to the valuation of biological assets are also applicable to inventory.

Determining the fair value less costs to sell requires the Company to make assumptions about the expected future yield from the cannabis plants, the value associated with each stage of the plants’ growth cycle, estimated selling price, costs to convert harvested cannabis into finished goods, and costs to sell. The Company’s estimates are, by their nature, subject to change.

Significant accounting policies

Text block1 [abstract]

Significant accounting policies

3.	Significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied to the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below:

(a)	Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized at the fair value of consideration received or receivable. Revenue from the sale of finished goods is recognized when the Company has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer and collection is reasonably assured. The significant risks and rewards of ownership are considered to be transferred upon delivery.

(b)	Equity accounted investments

Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee without control or joint control over those decisions. Significant influence is presumed if the Company holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, unless evidence exists to the contrary. The Company has assessed that it has significant influence over its investment in Whistler Medical Marijuana Company.

Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Investees in which the Company has joint control and rights to the net assets thereof, are defined as joint ventures. The Company’s interests in Cronos Australia and Indigenous Roots LP are classified as joint ventures.

Investees in which the Company has significant influence or joint control are accounted for using the equity method. The Company’s interest in an investee is initially recorded at cost and is subsequently adjusted for the Company’s share of changes in net assets of the investee, less any impairment in the value of individual investments, less any dividends paid. Where the Company transacts with an investee, unrealized profits and losses are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interest in that investee.

(c)	Biological assets

The Company measures biological assets, consisting of cannabis plants, at fair value less costs to sell. Agricultural produce, consisting of medical cannabis, is measured at fair value less costs to sell at the point of harvest, which becomes the basis for the cost of finished goods inventory after harvest. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair values less cost to sell during the period are included in the net income of the related year.

(d)

Inventory

Inventories of harvested finished goods, work-in-process, and raw materials are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventories of harvested cannabis and work-in-process are transferred from biological assets at their fair value at the point of harvest, which becomes the initial deemed cost. Any subsequent post-harvest costs, including direct costs attributable to processing and related overheads, are capitalized to inventory to the extent that cost is less than net realizable value. Net realizable value is determined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated variable costs to sell.

(e)	Intangible assets

Intangible assets, which have indefinite useful lives, are recorded at cost less impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but are systematically tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter or earlier if there is an indication of impairment.

(f)	Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the following methods and rates:


	Method	Rate
Building structures	Straight-line		15 to 20 years
Furniture and equipment	Straight-line		5 years
Computer equipment	Straight-line		3 years
Security equipment	Straight-line		5 years
Production equipment	Straight-line		7 years
Road	Straight-line		25 years
Leasehold improvements	Straight-line		5 to 10 years

An asset’s residual value, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted if appropriate. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate components.

Construction in progress is not depreciated until it is completed and available for use.

(g)	Provisions

Provision for risks and expenses are recognized for probable outflows of resources that can be estimated and that result from present obligations resulting from past events. In the case where a potential obligation resulting from past events exists, but where occurrence of the outflow of resources is not probable or the estimate is not reliable, these contingent liabilities are disclosed as commitments and litigation. Provisions, if any, are measured based on management’s best estimates of outcomes on the basis of facts known at the reporting date.

(h)	Share capital

Share capital is presented at the fair value of the shares issued. Costs related to the issuance of shares are reported in equity, net of tax, as a deduction from the issuance proceeds.

(i)	Foreign exchange translation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. At each reporting date, foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising from operating transactions are recorded in operating profit or loss for the period; exchange differences related to financing transactions are recognized in finance income or directly in equity.

(j)	Income taxes

The Company accounts for its income taxes using the deferred tax assets and liabilities method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the carrying amount and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities. Any change in the net amount of deferred income tax assets and liabilities is included in profit or loss or equity. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on enacted or substantively enacted tax rates and laws which are expected to apply to taxable profit for the years in which the assets and liabilities will be recovered or settled. Deferred income tax assets are recognized when it is probable they will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

(k)	Stock-based payments

Where equity instruments are granted to employees, they are recorded at the fair value of the equity instrument granted at the grant date. The grant date fair value is recognized in net income over the vesting period.

Where equity instruments are granted to non-employees, they are recorded at the fair value of the goods or services received in the statement of operations. When the value of goods or services received in exchange for the stock-based payment cannot be reliably estimated, the fair value is measured by use of a valuation model.

The cost recognized for all equity-settled stock-based payments are reflected in share-based reserve, until the instruments are exercised. Upon exercise, shares are issued from treasury and the amount previously reflected in share-based reserve are, along with any proceeds paid upon exercise, credited to share capital.

(l)	Earnings per share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its common shares. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, for the effects of all potentially dilutive common shares, which comprise warrants and stock options.

(m)	Financial instruments

The Company aggregates its financial instruments into classes based on their nature and characteristics. Management determines the classification when the instruments are initially recognized.

All financial assets except those classified as fair value through profit or loss are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.

The Company’s accounting policy for each class of financial instruments is as follows:

(i)	Fair value through profit or loss

Financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss are reported at fair value at each reporting date, and any change in fair value is recognized in net income in the period during which the change occurs. In these consolidated financial statements, cash and the investment in warrants of AbCann Global Corp. have been classified as fair value through profit or loss.

(ii)	Available-for-sale

Financial instruments classified as available-for-sale are initially recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition, with transaction costs included in the amount initially recognized. Thereafter, at each reporting date, available-for-sale financial assets are recognized at fair value and the changes in fair value, other than impairment losses and foreign exchange losses, are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and presented in accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity. In determining if the investment is impaired, the Company evaluates whether there is a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investment. Significant or prolonged decline is defined as an unrealized loss at 50% or a decline under its cost over two consecutive fiscal years, respectively. When the financial assets are sold or an impairment write-down is required, gains or losses previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. In these consolidated financial statements, investments in Hydropothecary Corporation, Canopy Growth Corporation, AbCann Global Corp., and Evergreen Medicinal Supply Inc. have been classified as available-for-sale.

(iii)

Loans and receivables and other financial liabilities

Financial instruments classified as loans and receivables and other financial liabilities are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Transaction costs are included in the amount initially recognized. In these consolidated financial statements, accounts receivable, loans receivable, and other receivables have been classified as loans and receivables. Accounts payable and other liabilities, purchase price liability, mortgage payable, and construction loan payable have been classified as other financial liabilities.

Adoption of new accounting pronouncements

4.	Adoption of new accounting pronouncements

(a)	AMENDMENTS TO IAS 7 STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS

International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 7 amendments include additional disclosures to enable users of the consolidated financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes. These amendments became effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. The Company has adopted these amendments as of the effective date and has assessed no significant changes as a result of the adoption of these amendments on the current or prior periods.

(b)	IAS 12 INCOME TAXES

IAS 12 amendments include: (a) unrealized losses on debt instruments measured at fair value and measured at cost for tax purposes give rise to a deductible temporary difference regardless of whether the debt instrument’s holder expects to recover the carrying amount of the debt instrument by sale or by use; (b) the carrying amount of an asset does not limit the estimation of probable future taxable profits; (c) estimates for future taxable profits exclude tax deductions resulting from the reversal of deductible temporary differences; and (d) an entity assesses a deferred tax asset for recoverability in combination with other deferred tax assets. Where tax law restricts the utilization of tax losses, an entity would assess a deferred tax asset for recoverability in combination with other deferred tax assets of the same type. These amendments became effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. The Company has adopted these amendments as of the effective date and has assessed no significant changes as a result of the adoption of these amendments on the current or prior periods.

New and revised standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective

5.	New and revised standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective

(a)	AMENDMENTS TO IFRS 2 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

IFRS 2 clarifies how to account for certain types of share-based payment transactions. The amendments provide requirements on the accounting for the effects of vesting and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments, share-based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations, and a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equity-settled. The effective date of these amendments is January 1, 2018. The Company will adopt the amendments as of its effective date. The Company has performed a preliminary assessment and does not expect there to be significant impact on the consolidated financial statements as a result of these amendments.

(b)	IFRS 9 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

IFRS 9 addresses classification and measurement of financial assets and replaces the multiple category and measurement models in IAS 39 for debt instruments with a new mixed measurement model having only two categories: amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss. IFRS 9 also replaces the models for measuring equity instruments and such instruments are either recognized at fair value through profit or loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The effective date of this standard is January 1, 2018. The Company will adopt this new standard as of its effective date. As a result of the new classification model and measurement requirements under IFRS 9, the Company will elect to classify the available-for-sale investments as fair value through other comprehensive income investments. Under this classification, there is no recycling of gains or losses from accumulated other comprehensive income to profit or loss. Therefore, the gain recorded in other comprehensive income in the current year of $947 will not be recycled to profit or loss in future periods. The Company has performed a preliminary assessment and does not expect there to be any other significant impacts on the consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of this new standard.

(c)	IFRS 15 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

IFRS 15 was issued by the IASB in May 2014 and specifies how and when revenue should be recognized based on a five- step model, which is applied to all contracts with customers. IFRS 15 becomes effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this new standard as of its effective date. The Company has performed a preliminary assessment and does not expect there to be any significant impact on the consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of this new standard.

During the year, the Company had undertaken an accounting impact analysis based on a review of the contractual terms of its principal revenue stream. Under IFRS 15, the revenue recognition model will change from one based on the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership to the transfer of control. The Company’s revenue is predominantly derived from sales of dried cannabis and cannabis oil. As the transfer of risks and rewards generally coincides with the transfer of control at a point in time, the timing and amount of revenue considering discounts, rebates, and variable considerations, recognized from this principal revenue stream is unlikely to be materially affected.

(d)	IFRS 16 LEASES

IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016 and replaces the previous guidance on leases. This standard provides a single recognition and measurement model to be applied by lessees to leases, with required recognition of assets and liabilities for most leases. This standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted if the Company is also applying IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company will adopt this new standard as of its effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Acquisition of Peace Naturals

6.	Acquisition of Peace Naturals

On September 6, 2016, the Company acquired all of the remaining issued and outstanding shares of Peace Naturals, a Licensed Producer, headquartered in Stayner, Ontario. Consideration for the acquisition included $6,248 in cash and $2,590 (approximately 30%) to be paid once all conditions of the agreement were settled. The conditions were based on the passage of time to ensure there were no additional liabilities identified. As the Company previously held shares of Peace Naturals, the acquisition is considered a step acquisition and resulted in a loss due to fair value remeasurement.

The purchase price allocation for this acquisition is shown below:


Fair value of consideration transferred:
Cash	$	6,248
Liability (i)		2,590

		8,838

Fair value of previously held interest:
Fair value of previously held interest immediately before acquisition		3,315
Loss due to fair value remeasurement at acquisition date		(347	)

		2,968

	$	11,806

Fair value of net assets acquired:
Cash	$	109
Accounts receivable		51

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities		(2,860	)
Loans payable		(7,461	)
Deferred tax liability		(1,400	)

	$	11,806

The Company finalized its assessment of the purchase price allocation during the year ended December 31, 2017. The allocation of the consideration paid remains consistent with the initial valuation.

(i)	During the year ended December 31, 2017, the full balance of the purchase price liability was repaid by the Company.

Biological assets and inventory

7.	Biological assets and inventory

The Company’s biological assets consist of cannabis plants. The changes in the carrying amount of the biological assets are as follows:


	2017			2016
Biological assets - beginning of year	$	1,795		$	—
Gain on revaluation of biological assets		11,620			2,179
Increase due to acquisition of Peace Naturals		—			866
Transferred to inventory upon harvest		(9,693	)		(1,250	)

Biological assets - end of year	$	3,722		$	1,795

The effect of changes in fair value of biological assets and inventory during the year include:


	2017			2016
Unrealized change in fair value of biological assets	$	(11,620	)	$	(2,179	)
Realized fair value increments on inventory sold during the year		3,956			266

Net effect of changes in fair value of biological assets and inventory	$	(7,664	)	$	(1,913	)

The Company values its biological assets at the end of each reporting period at fair value less costs to sell. This is determined using a valuation model to estimate the expected harvest yield per plant applied to the estimated price per gram less processing and selling costs. This model also considers the progress in the plant life cycle.

Management has made the following estimates in this valuation model:

•

The average number of weeks in the growing cycle is fifteen weeks from propagation to harvest;

•

The average harvest yield of whole flower is 182 grams per plant;

•

The average selling price of whole flower is $8.50 per gram;

•

Processing costs include drying and curing, testing and packaging, post-harvest overhead allocation, and oil extraction costs estimated to be $0.82 per gram; and

•

Selling costs include shipping, order fulfillment, and labelling, estimated to be $0.97 per gram.

The estimates of growing cycle, harvest yield, and costs per gram are based on the Company’s historical results. The estimate of the selling price per gram is based on the Company’s historical sales in addition to the Company’s expected sales price going forward.

Management has quantified the sensitivity of the inputs, and determined the following:

•

Selling price per gram – a decrease in the selling price per gram by 5% would result in the biological asset value decreasing by $227 (2016 - $88) and inventory decreasing by $443 (2016 - $68)

•

Harvest yield per plant – a decrease in the harvest yield per plant of 5% would result in the biological asset value decreasing by $181 (2016 - $110)

These inputs are level 3 on the fair value hierarchy, and are subject to volatility and several uncontrollable factors, which could significantly affect the fair value of biological assets in future periods.

As at December 31, 2017, the biological assets were on average, 46% complete (2016 – 50%), and the estimated fair value less costs to sell of dry cannabis was $6.71 per gram. As of December 31, 2017, it is expected that the Company’s biological assets will ultimately yield approximately 1,695 kg of cannabis (2016 - 213 kg). As at December 31, 2017, the Company has 7,353 plants that are biological assets (2016 - 2,558 plants).

Inventory as at December 31 consists of the following:


	2017		2016
Dry cannabis
Finished goods	$	6,145	$	1,502
Work-in-process		1,630		—

Cannabis oils
Finished goods		332		—
Raw materials		183		194
Supplies and consumables		126		212

	$	8,416	$	1,908

As at December 31, 2017, the Company held 815 kg of dry cannabis and 137 L of cannabis oil as finished goods (2016 - 236 kg). In addition, the Company held 243 kg of work-in-process (2016 - Nil), which is comprised of harvested cannabis in the processing stage, and 0.288 kg of seeds in raw materials (2016 - 0.298 kg).

Other investments

Other investments consist of investments in common shares and warrants of several companies in the medical cannabis industry. These investments, with the exception of shares of Evergreen Medicinal Supply Inc. and warrants of AbCann Global Corp., are traded in an active market, and as a result have a reliably measurable fair value.

(i)

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company received bonus shares pursuant to the original agreement, for $Nil consideration. The transaction price was less than the fair value at the date of receipt, and the gain of $25 on initial recognition was deferred as the fair value was based on other than level 1 inputs. The deferred gain was taken into income as factors that market participants would consider when valuing the shares had changed. The fair value of the shares was based on the share price of the financing that took place in December 2016.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, BFK Capital Corp. acquired all of the outstanding shares of Hydropothecary, and began trading as Hydropothecary Corporation, (TSX-V:THCX). The Company sold all of its shares of Hydropothecary for proceeds of $932.

(ii)

During the year ended December 31, 2016, Canopy acquired all of the outstanding shares of Vert. In exchange for shares in Vert, Canopy issued the former Vert shareholders, shares of Canopy. The fair value of the Canopy shares at the date of the transaction of $258 determined the proceeds on derecognition of the Vert shares. Since the gain was realized, it was recorded as income. The fair value of the Canopy shares at the date of the transaction was also the deemed cost of the Canopy shares.

(iii)

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company sold some of its shares of Canopy for proceeds of $88. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company received bonus shares pursuant to the original agreement, for $Nil consideration. The transaction price was less than the fair value at the date of receipt, and the gain of $75 on initial recognition was initially deferred as the fair value was based on other than level 1 inputs. During the year, the deferred gain was taken into income as factors that market participants would consider when valuing the shares had changed. The fair value of all of the shares was estimated based on a valuation of the investee’s peer group.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, AbCann Medicinals Inc. performed a reverse takeover with Panda Capital Inc. As a result of this transaction, AbCann began trading as AbCann Global Corp. (TSX-V:ABCN). The Company purchased an additional 1,270,000 shares of AbCann for $1,016 in cash and subsequently sold all of its shares of AbCann for proceeds of $9,859. Refer to Note 10 (v) for remaining warrants held.

(iv)

During the year ended December 31, 2016, management revised their estimate of the fair value of the investment back to its original value, based on management’s assessment of the likelihood Evergreen would receive a license to produce and sell medical marijuana. The gain on the revaluation of the investment has been recognized as other comprehensive income.

(iv)

During the year ended December 31, 2017, Evergreen received a cultivation license under the ACMPR. As a result, the Company completed its subscription for a second tranche of shares of Evergreen for $100 and exercised its option to acquire an additional 5% of the equity of Evergreen for $500, for a total additional investment of $600. However, Evergreen, through its counsel, has indicated that the Company is not entitled to any interest in Evergreen and has rejected the payment. The Company filed a statement of claim in the Supreme Court of British Columbia against Evergreen and its directors, seeking, among other things, declarations that the Company holds equity of Evergreen and that the agreement between the parties in respect of Evergreen’s equity is a valid and binding contract. Evergreen has filed a statement of defence. The Company intends to vigorously pursue the enforcement of its rights to acquire equity in Evergreen.

(v)

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company received bonus warrants pursuant to the original agreement, for $Nil consideration. The transaction price was less than the fair value at the date of receipt, and the gain of $24 on initial recognition was initially deferred as the fair value was based on other than level 1 inputs. During the year, the deferred gain on the bonus warrants and the original warrants was taken into income as factors that market participants would consider when valuing the warrants have changed. As at December 31, 2016, the fair value of the warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free rate: 0.60 - 0.73%; volatility: 65%; share price: $0.80; expected life: 0.70 - 1.7 years; and dividend yield: Nil%. The share price was estimated using the price from the most recent equity financing and volatility was estimated based on publicly traded companies which management has assessed as being comparable to AbCann.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company exercised 3,658,537 warrants for $2,268, for additional shares of AbCann. As at December 31, 2017, the fair value of the remaining 182,927 warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free rate: 1.66%; volatility: 65%; share price $1.53; expected life 0.76; and dividend yield: Nil%.

For purposes of impairment testing, intangible assets with an indefinite life and goodwill were allocated to the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate cash flows independently (a cash-generating unit or “CGU”). The Health Canada licenses issued to OGBC and Peace Naturals enable the entities to produce and sell dry cannabis and cannabis oils pursuant to the ACMPR, enabling the generation of cash flows through the ultimate sale thereof. In order for these licenses to generate such cash flows, the entities need to have the following resources including, but not limited to, the appropriate production facilities, skilled labour, and materials. As such, the Company has assessed that the smallest aggregation of assets that generate independent cash flows would be all of the assets and liabilities of each individual entity for their corresponding license.

The recoverable amounts of the CGUs were determined based on a value-in-use calculation, determined using a five-year cash flow projection. The cash flows were estimated using forecasted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization less capital expenditures. The key assumptions used in the estimation of the recoverable amounts were as follows:


	OGBC			Peace Naturals
Weighted average cost of capital (after-tax)		37.0	%		36.0	%
Average growth rate*		490.0	%		140.0	%

*	The average growth rate is determined by summing the expected year-over-year growth rate (in EBITDA) then dividing by five years.

These assumptions are based on the Company’s historical results, the preliminary results of the first quarter of the following fiscal year, and management’s expectations of the cash flows based on budgeted results, taking into account estimated sales volume and price changes. The impairment test performed resulted in no impairment of licenses or goodwill at December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Management has not identified a reasonably possible change in these key assumptions that could cause the carrying amount of either CGU to exceed its recoverable amount.

On August 23, 2017, Peace Naturals, as borrower, entered into a construction loan agreement with Romspen Investment Corporation as lender, to borrow $40,000, to be funded by way of multiple advances. The aggregate advances are limited to $35,000 until the lender receives an appraisal valuing the property in British Columbia at an amount of not less than $8,000. The loan bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum, calculated and compounded monthly, in arrears, on the amounts advanced from the date of each advance. The term of the loan is two years, with the borrower’s option to extend for another twelve months. The loan is guaranteed by Cronos Group, Hortican, OGBC, the responsible-person-in-charge and the senior- person-in-charge of OGBC and Peace Naturals. The loan is secured by the following:

(a)	first-ranking charge on the land owned by OGBC, Peace Naturals, and Hortican, (the “Property”) with a net book value of approximately $1,558 as at December 31, 2017;

(b)	first-ranking general assignment of all present and future leases of each Property;

Financial instruments

(i)	Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s accounts receivable and loans receivable. The maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of these financial assets. The Company provides credit to its customers in the normal course of business and has established credit evaluation and monitoring processes to mitigate credit risk.

As at December 31, 2017, the value of its loans receivable was $314 (2016 - $309) and the value of its accounts receivable was $1,140 (2016 - $107). The Company is not significantly exposed to credit risk, as these receivables comprise 1.4% (2016 - 1.0%) of the Company’s total assets. As at December 31, 2017 89.3% (2016 - 27.5%) of the Company’s trade receivables were due from 2 customers (2016 - 1 customer).

The following represents an analysis of the age of trade receivables as at December 31:


	2017		2016
Current	$	—	$	—
Less than 30 days past billing date		1,020		63
31 to 60 days past billing date		85		16
61 to 90 days past billing date		35		9
Over 90 days past billing date		—		19

	$	1,140	$	107

(ii)	Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s policy is to review liquidity resources and ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet financial obligations as they become due. Further, the Company’s management is responsible for ensuring funds exist and are readily accessible to support business opportunities as they arise. The Company’s funding is provided in the form of capital raised through the issuance of shares and warrants.

The following represents an analysis of the age of accounts payable as at December 31:


	2017		2016
Current	$	5,922	$	147
Less than 30 days past billing date		803		150
31 to 60 days past billing date		113		33
61 to 90 days past billing date		66		16
Over 90 days past billing date		172		240

	$	7,076	$	586

(iii)

Market risk

(1)	Price risk

Price risk is the risk that the fair value of, or future cash flows from, the Company’s financial instruments will significantly fluctuate due to changes in market prices. The value of the financial instruments can be affected by changes in interest rates, market and economic conditions, and equity and commodity prices. The Company is exposed to price risk in divesting its investments, in that, unfavourable market conditions could result in dispositions of investments at less than favourable prices. Further, in the revaluation of securities classified as available-for-sale, this could result in significant write-downs of the Company’s investments, which would have an adverse impact on the Company’s financial position.

The Company manages price risk by having a portfolio of securities from multiple issuers, such that the Company is not singularly exposed to any one issuer. The Company also has set thresholds on purchases of investments over which the approval of the Board of Directors is required.

(2)	Concentration risk

Concentration risk is the risk that any single investment or group thereof, has the potential to materially affect the operating results of the Company. The Company is exposed to this risk as all of its investments are currently within the medical marijuana industry. As such, the Company’s financial results may be adversely affected by the unfavourable performance of those investments or the industry in which they operate.

It is management’s opinion that the Company is not subject to significant interest rate risk.

Fair value hierarchy

23.

Fair value hierarchy

Assets recorded at fair value on the consolidated statements of financial position are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

Level 1 - valuation based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. In these consolidated financial statements, cash and other investments (Canopy) are included in this category.

Level 2 - valuation techniques based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. In these consolidated financial statements, AbCann share purchase warrants, and the Company’s options and warrants are included in this category.

Level 3 - valuation techniques using the inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data. In these consolidated financial statements, other investments (Evergreen), and biological assets are included in this category.

The Company’s policy for determining when transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy occur is based on the date of the event or changes in circumstances that caused the transfer.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, Hydropothecary and AbCann became publicly traded. Due to these events, the investments in shares of Hydropothecary and AbCann were transferred out of Level 3 as the inputs for the valuation of the investments were no longer unobservable. The investments in Hydropothecary and AbCann were transferred into Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, as the valuation of the investments was based on quoted prices in an active market. As at December 31, 2017, all of these instruments were disposed of. There were no other transfers between levels during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017.
