Cronos Group got a rating downgrade from Stifel analyst W. Andrew Carter .
Carter lowered his rating on the marijuana company’s stock to hold from buy . He also slashed his share price target. Carter cited “Uncertainty surrounding the company’s inability to file its SEC filings and the investigation around its revenue recognition practices,” as a factor behind the downgrade.
Last week, Cronos indicated that it would postpone its earnings release scheduled for Feb. 27 to March 17. The company attributed the delay to a review by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, with the assistance of outside counsel and forensic accountants, of several bulk resin purchases and sales of products through the wholesale channel and the appropriateness of the recognition of revenue from those transactions.
Nevertheless, Carter believes that Cronos will eventually demonstrate a differentiated revenue growth profile by fulfilling the early demands of the Canadian vapor market and making innovation conducive to winning in the global cannabis category.
