Company Report

First Pillar of Germany's Cannabis Legalization Begins April 1; Legal Sales to Come Later

The Bundestag, the lower house of Germany’s legislature, passed a cannabis bill last month that would allow possession of up to 25 grams and home-growing of up to three plants. The law will become effective April 1 as planned after the Bundesrat, the upper house, voted not to send it to mediation committee on March 22. The law expands on July 1 to allow nonprofit cannabis grow clubs of up to 500 members and 50 grams per member.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Altria Group’s investment of $1.8 billion provides Cronos with capital and a strategic partner with significant product development, branding, and regulatory experience. If successful, Altria Group may increase its ownership of Cronos or potentially acquire it.

Bears

Cronos' small size adds difficulty to reaching profitability, as it struggles to leverage overhead expenses.
