(in thousands of CDN $, except where otherwise noted, and share, per share, weight, volume and plant amounts)
| (a) | Basis of consolidation |
| These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are comprised of the financial results of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, which are the entities over which the Company has control. The Company controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. Where the Company does not have a controlling interest but has the ability to exert significant influence, the equity method is used. The Company consolidates the financial results of the following entities, which the Company controls: |
| Subsidiaries | Jurisdiction of incorporation | Incorporation date | Ownership interest | ||||
| Cronos Israel G.S. Cultivations Ltd. (i) | Israel | February 4, 2018 | 70% | ||||
| Cronos Israel G.S. Manufacturing Ltd. (i) | Israel | September 4, 2018 | 90% | ||||
| Cronos Israel G.S. Store Ltd. (i) | Israel | June 28, 2018 | 90% | ||||
| Cronos Israel G.S. Pharmacies Ltd. (i) | Israel | February 15, 2018 | 90% | ||||
| (i) | These Israeli entities are collectively referred to as "Cronos Israel" . |
| In the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss) are attributed to the equity holders of the Company and to the non-controlling interests. Non-controlling interests in the equity of Cronos Israel are presented separately in the shareholders' equity section of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position and the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of changes in equity. | |
| (b) | Investments in equity accounted investees |
| Investees in which the Company has significant influence or joint control are accounted for using the equity method. The Company's interests in equity accounted investees are summarized in the following chart. |
| Equity accounted investees | Notes | Jurisdiction of incorporation | Ownership interest | ||||
| Cronos Australia Limited ( "Cronos Australia" ) | 5,27 | Australia | 50% | ||||
| MedMen Canada Inc. ( "MedMen Canada" ) | 5 | Canada | 50% | ||||
| Cronos Growing Company Inc. ( "Cronos GrowCo" ) | 5 | Canada | 50% | ||||
| NatuEra S. . r.l ( "NatuEra" ) | 5 | Luxembourg | 50% |
As at December 31, 2018, the Company held a 19% ownership interest in Whistler Marijuana Company ("Whistler"). During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company divested its investment in Whistler.
| (c) | Basis of measurement |
| Apart from biological assets, other investments, deferred share units, and derivative liabilities, which are measured at fair value, the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been presented and prepared on the basis of historical cost. |
| (d) | Functional and presentation currency |
| These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars ( "CDN" ), which is the functional currency of the Company. The functional currency of all subsidiaries is the national currency of the respective jurisdiction of incorporation which includes Israel and the United States of America ( "U.S." ). |

| 3. | Adoption of new accounting pronouncements |
| (a) | IFRS 16, Leases |
| IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016 and replaces the previous guidance on leases, predominantly IAS 17, Leases. The Company has applied IFRS 16 with an initial application date of January 1, 2019, in accordance with the transitional provisions specified in IFRS 16. As a result, the Company has changed its accounting policy for lease contracts as detailed below. The Company has applied the following practical expedients: | |
| (i) | The Company applied the simplified transition approach and did not restate comparative information. As a result, the Company recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying IFRS 16 as an adjustment to the accumulated deficit as at January 1, 2019. |
| (ii) | On transition to IFRS 16, the Company elected to apply the practical expedient to grandfather the assessment of which transactions are leases. The Company applied IFRS 16 only to contracts that were previously identified as leases. Contracts that were not identified as leases under IAS 17, and IFRIC 4, Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease, were not reassessed for whether they contain a lease. The Company applied the definition of a lease under IFRS 16 to contracts entered into or changed on or after January 1, 2019. |
| In accordance with the practical expedients applied, the Company has recognized lease liabilities and right-of-use assets at the date of initial application for leases previously classified as operating leases in accordance with IAS 17. The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases (lease term of 12 months or less) and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. The Company has elected to measure the right-of-use assets at the carrying amount as if IFRS 16 had been applied since the commencement date, discounted using the Company's incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application. For the lease previously classified as a finance lease under IAS 17, the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset and the lease liability at the date of initial application is equal to the carrying amount of the leased asset and lease liability immediately before the date of initial application. |
The following table summarizes the impacts of adopting IFRS 16 on the Company's unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as at the date of initial application:
| As at January 1, 2019 | As previously reported under IAS 17 | Adjustments (i) | As restated under IFRS 16 | |||||||||
| Right-of-use assets | $ | 217 | $ | 1,890 | $ | 2,107 | ||||||
| Accumulated depreciation | 46 | 144 | 190 | |||||||||
| Current lease liabilities | 41 | 303 | 344 | |||||||||
| Non-current lease liabilities | 119 | 1,515 | 1,634 | |||||||||
| Accumulated deficit | (22,715 | ) | (68 | ) | (22,783 | ) | ||||||
| Non-controlling interests | 136 | (4 | ) | 132 |

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018
(in thousands of CDN $, except where otherwise noted, and share, per share, weight, volume and plant amounts)
The following is the Company's policy for accounting for lease contracts in accordance with IFRS 16:
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the commencement date of the lease. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset, less any lease incentives received. The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. In addition, the right-of-use assets are adjusted for impairment losses, if any. The estimated useful lives and recoverable amounts of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases (lease term of 12 months or less) and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
| 4. | Biological assets and inventory |
| (a) | Biological assets |
| The Company's biological assets consist of cannabis plants. The changes in the carrying amounts of the biological assets are as follows: |
| Three Months Ended September 30, | Nine Months Ended September 30, | |||||||||||||||
| 2019 | 2018 | 2019 | 2018 | |||||||||||||
| Balance - beginning of period | $ | 10,032 | $ | 6,899 | $ | 9,074 | $ | 3,722 | ||||||||

| Balance - end of period | $ | 2,101 | $ | 5,632 | $ | 2,101 | $ | 5,632 |
As at September 30, 2019, the Company has 75,649 plants classified as biological assets which are expected to ultimately yield 4,388 kg of dry cannabis (December 31, 2018 - 46,004 plants which were expected to ultimately yield 6,303 kg of dry cannabis).

| $ | 52,865 | $ | 11,584 |
| (i) | Cannabis oils are expressed in dry cannabis gram equivalents. Refer to Note 4(d) for the equivalency factor applied. |
| ( i i) | Cannabinoid infused products pertain to inventory related to the four operating subsidiaries (collectively, "Redwood" ) of Redwood Holding Group, LLC acquired by the Company, refer to Note 8. Redwood does not have any biological assets and is not subject to the fair value adjustment. Inventory is measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. |
As at September 30, 2019, the Company held 89 kg (December 31, 2018 - 29 kg) of dry cannabis and 7 kg (December 31, 2018 - 4 kg) of cannabis oils as retention samples, which are valued at $nil.
Costs incurred to transform biological assets up to the point of harvest ("production costs") are capitalized as they are incurred, which become the cost basis of the biological assets. These costs include direct costs such as nutrients, soil, and seeds, as well as other indirect costs such as utilities, an allocation of indirect labour, property taxes, and depreciation of equipment used in the growing process. The biological assets are then revalued to fair value less costs to sell immediately prior to harvest and at the end of each reporting period. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value less costs to sell, excluding capitalized production costs, are presented as unrealized changes in the fair value of biological assets. At the point of harvest, agricultural produce consisting of cannabis is considered inventory. The fair value less costs to sell becomes the cost base of inventory. Any subsequent post-harvest costs ("processing costs"), including direct costs attributable to processing and related overhead, are capitalized to inventory as they are incurred. Upon ultimate sale of inventory, the associated production and processing costs are presented as cost of sales before fair value adjustments; the remaining cost of inventory, associated with fair value less costs to sell prior to harvest, is presented as realized fair value adjustments on inventory sold in the period.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018
(in thousands of CDN $, except where otherwise noted, and share, per share, weight, volume and plant amounts)
The direct and indirect costs related to biological assets and inventory are allocated as follows. The allocation basis was consistent for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, unless otherwise specified.
| Nature of cost | Allocation basis |
| Consumables (insect control, fertilizers, soil) | 100% allocated to production costs because these costs are incurred to support plant growth |
| Labour costs (including salaries and benefits) | Allocated based on job descriptions of various personnel 40% allocated to processing costs; 40% allocated to production costs; 20% allocated to operating expenses (2018 - 30%; 40%; and 30%; respectively) |
| Supplies and small tools | 80% allocated to production costs; 20% allocated to processing costs |
| Utilities | Allocated based on estimates of usage 10% allocated to processing costs; 90% allocated to production costs |
| Property taxes, depreciation, security | Allocated based on estimates of square footage 20% allocated to processing costs; 50% allocated to production costs; 30% allocated to operating expenses |
| Packaging costs | 100% allocated to processing costs |
| (d) | Significant inputs and sensitivity analyses |
| The Company has made the following estimates related to significant inputs in the valuation model: |
| Significant inputs | Definition |
| Net selling price per gram | Estimated net selling price per gram of dry cannabis based on historical sales of dry cannabis, excluding sales of cannabis oil, and anticipated prices, after adjustment for excise taxes |
| Harvest yield per plant | Expected grams of dry cannabis to be harvested from a cannabis plant, based on the weighted average historical yields by plant strain |
| Stage of growth | Weighted average plant age (in weeks) out of the 14 week (December 31, 2018 - 16 week) growing cycle as of the period end date |
| Processing costs per gram | Estimated post-harvest costs per gram to bring a gram of harvested cannabis to its saleable condition, including drying, curing, testing and packaging, and overhead allocation; estimated based on post-harvest costs incurred during the period divided by number of grams processed during the period |
| Selling costs per gram | Estimated shipping, order fulfillment, and labelling costs per gram; calculated as selling costs incurred during the period divided by number of grams sold during the period |
| Equivalency factor | Estimated grams of dry cannabis required to produce one millilitre of cannabis oil; estimated based on historical conversion results |
| Mass multipliers | Estimated multiples of crude extract and isolate mass in diluted cannabis oil products |
These inputs are level 3 on the fair value hierarchy, and are subject to volatility and several uncontrollable factors, which could significantly affect the fair value of biological assets and inventory in future periods.
