" This quarter , Cronos Group continued to bring high - quality and insight - driven products to market . I am particularly proud of the Spinach ™ brand gummy innovation launched this quarter into the Canadian adult - use market , SOURZ by Spinach TM , which has quickly jumped to be one of the most desirable products in the edibles category . In the U.S. , we officially re - launched PEACE + TM in the direct - to - consumer channel , which rounds out our different pricing tiers for the U.S. hemp - derived CBD market . Having brands across price points and usage occasions is critical to meeting consumer needs in the CBD category , " said Kurt Schmidt , President and CEO , Cronos Group .

In the second quarter of 2021 , we were able to lock in a component of that strategy as we made a strategic investment in PharmaCann , a leading vertically integrated U.S. cannabis company . We look forward to capitalizing on opportunities in the U.S. that we expect will strengthen our ability to compete in this emerging market . "
